The Industry: Opportunities & Threats:

NBFCs have been playing a complimentary role to the banking sector, catering to the unbanked sectors and promoting financial inclusion; NBFCs have been vital to the growth of the economy by providing financial support to some of the important segments of the economy. Gradually, they are being recognised as complementary to the banking sector due to their customer-oriented services: simplified procedures; attractive rates of return on deposits; flexibility and timeliness in meeting the credit needs of specified sectors; etc. NBFCs are heterogeneous group of institutions (other than commercial and co- operative banks) performing financial intermediation in a variety of ways, like accepting deposits, making loans and advances, leasing, hire purchase, etc. They raise funds from the public, directly or indirectly, and lend them to ultimate spenders. They advance loans to the various wholesale and retail traders, small-scale industries and self-employed persons. Thus, they have broadened and diversified the range of products and services offered by a financial sector.

Opening up of economy gave a further boost to the demand for credit. A developing economy like India always craves for financial resources and NBFCs account for 12.3% of assets of the total financial system. Due to the global economic slowdown and its impact on the domestic economy, NBFC sector faced significant stresses on asset quality, liquidity and funding costs.

Business Outlook and Overview:

Demand for credit is great and often organized traditional financing institutions (like banks and financial institutions) do not meet such demand thus creating a space for other types of financing.

Bank borrowings and debentures have remained the prominent source of funding for NBFCs After a long depressing performance in the past, the Company with its pragmatic approach in line with the objectives of Long-term growth, is developing the strategic competency and enhancing its operational efficiencies. Our strategy to enhance scale of operations, strengthen business, where we have competencies.

Company''s future earnings largely depend upon successful implementation of its strategies in its core competence portfolio. Further the Company is going to enlarge its area and scale of operations to the existing portfolio to capture business opportunities growth and to consolidate customer relationship this year.
