overview of economy

India's growth prospects in 2014-15 look much better when compared to the situation a year ago. Various agencies project GDP growth to be around 5.5/5.6% this fiscal year. This is a welcome improvement from below 5.0% GDP growth witnessed in the previous two fiscal years - 4.5% in 2012-13 and 4.7% in 2013-14. Inflation which had been a persistent worry has finally moved to a downward path. Latest numbers indicate inflationary pressure waning, with both wholesale and retail prices reporting softening. Also, the decline in prices has been broad based with an evident fall noted in food and fuel segment prices. Further, our current account position which was a dominant risk factor until last year has been suppressed to a large extent. The global oil prices have softened and the exchange rate is projected to remain pretty much stable. Export growth has also been steady so far this year. Over the period April-September 2014, exports recorded a growth of 6.3%, vis-a-vis 6.7% growth registered over the same period last year. In addition, the foreign investment inflows -both foreign direct investments and portfolio investments- have been sound. Over the period April-August 2014, total inflows amounted to USD 33.7 billion, up from USD 3.1 billion in the corresponding period last year. The benign global environment accompanied by a strong and stable government at home has reinvigorated the interest of the investors.

INDUSTRY STRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENT

The Indian economy has emerged rapidly from the slowdown caused by the global financial crisis of 2007-09 and remains one of the fastest growing economies of the world. After dipping to 6.8% in 2008-09, GDP growth had recovered sharply to 8% and is projected to remain above this level in 2010-11. Economic and financial events over the year, however, have increased concerns about the sustainability of the growth momentum.

The global economic and financial situation is recovering slowly. The large fiscal deficits and high debt ratios coupled with slow economic growth have created unsettling conditions for business and have potential for causing great volatility in financial markets. It is hard to visualize strong economic growth in the advanced economies in 2010 and to a large extent in 2011. The implications of this, for India''s strategy to return to the 9.0 per cent growth trajectory, are that public policy must promote business confidence and facilitate increased investment.

Apart from above, high current account deficit, particularly in the context of weakening capital inflows, was also a cause of concern, which has hitherto managed to compensate the rising trade deficit. The current account deficit was a manifestation of strong domestic demand and global weakness. This pressure has abated somewhat during the past few months, with rise in exports and slowing (non-oil) imports. However, a strong rebound in India''s exports over the past couple of months has considerably reduced the pressure, but India''s overall balance of payments remains weaker than expected, putting pressure on the Rupee.

OPPORTUNITIES & THREATS

Global Market is large and rapidly changing-from a mix of legacy client server to web / package-based services. Market openings are emerging across I.T. services, software products, I.T. enabled services and E-businesses, and creating a number of new opportunities for Indian companies. The corporate, government and consumer sector of the Indian domestic market offers a huge opportunity to software and services companies.

The Fundamental drives of India''s medium term growth prospects remain intact. However, global developments, in conjunction with Indian Policy responses to the concerns noted above, are likely to make 201 1-12 a challenging year.

Global economic and financial conditions can be expected to remain adverse for some time, particularly in the aftermath of Japan''s natural disaster. Once the current financial year and commodity volatility subsides, deeper structural factors are likely to slow down economic growth, particularly in developed economics. Fiscal consolidation in Europe and an excess supply overhang in the US will probably moderate growth in the second half, together with increasing expectations of policy rate rise to quell rising inflation.

In India, inflationary pressure are likely to persist and hence result in a further, though moderate, monetary policy tightening the impact of which will be increasingly visible, through rising borrowing costs, in fiscal 2012. Increasing savings, high interest rates, an expected lower rise in currency driven by lower food prices, are likely to help deposits to grow stronger in fiscal 2012. However, in light of inflationary pressures and rising interest rates, there is a likelihood that the credit growth momentum might slow in 201 1-12.

The expansion of the economy in the rural areas and particularly in the agricultural infrastructure sector continues to present opportunities of growth for NBFCs with a rural network. NBFCs here will have to rely on their partnership with banks and insurance companies and their own access to rural distribution networks to exploit such opportunities. Apart from the threat imposed by banks, the Reserve Bank of India has also advised NBFCs to reduce dependence on deposits in the next few years. This will have an adverse impact on NBFCs.

Dependence on purely fund-based business continues to be difficult for NBFCs unless they are able to reduce their cost of funds very substantially. The ability of the company to significantly expand its non-fund based activities would remain an area of concern.

The Company is also in a business of Investment in shares and securities as well as in various Mutual Fund schemes. Investment business activities need lot of experience, skills and passion as well as timely exit decision. Gain from Investment business lies on the investment decision and wise person with timely and accurate decision can perform better than a person investment without vision.

On the other hand changes in regulatory frameworks, slowing down of capital market, increase in inflation and decrease in earning of common consumer can lead to the loss in investment business.

Beside above business activities, your Company is one of Non Banking Finance Company (NBFC). During the entire year, there were almost no business due to sluggish market as well as rise and fall in Dollar verses Rupee as well as non-predictable low demand in money market. Due to uncertainty, the Company has decided to stay away from Finance & Money market and hence the Company was only able to earn from said activities during the year under review.

Inflation and high interest rates where another cause of concerns for the Company and due to uncertainty in this, the Company was unable to decide about short term funding.

The FY 2009-10 however saw a turnaround in the fortunes of the Capital Market in India. On the back of easing global concerns, stable government at the centre and improving market sentiments, the industry turnover registered a strong performance making a huge improvement over the position in FY 2008-09.

Economic Scenario and Outlook

The year 2008 was unparalleled, with the unfolding of an unprecedented financial crisis on Wall Street, Falling property prices, coupled with massive leveraging, sparked off the sub-prime crisis in the housing mortgage sector in the US. Due to tight integration of the financial markets across the world, this contagion has spread to the global banking sector. Finally, this has traversed from the financial to the real estate sector, and has participated into a global economic slowdown.

The growth prospects of emerging economics such as India have most definitively been undermined by the ongoing crisis and the resilience of the Indian economy is being tested like never before. There is evidence of the slowdown in the economy with moderation of real GDP growth in the 1st half of 2008-09. The softening demand has dented corporate margins, while the uncertainty surrounding the crisis has affected business confidence.

The Central Government of India and the Reserve Bank of India have announced fiscal and monetary measures to revive growth. The Government is seeking to boost through various stimulus packages by way of enhanced expenditure on infrastructure and through tax reductions. However, business confidence and economy may take a while to rebound due to the traditional lag effect associated with stimulus packages.
