OPERATIONS AND FUTURE OUTLOOK Investment Banking and Retail
Mobilization
Last 8 years was a drag on Indian businesses and which has become more
palpable in recent times. It is a known fact that Indian Economy is
going through a period where businesses are in shambles. The leading
lights of Indian Corporates are declaring losses, which are
unprecedented in the history of India. The last two years also
witnessed erosions in the portfolios of lot many investors, Mutual
Funds are struggling to maintain their Asset Under Management. We are
a by product of good economy, sound stock market and futuristic growth
of the Corporate Sector results in business for us.
With the change of guard at the Center and reading the mind of the new
Government, it is felt that this Government is seriously worried about
the reduced participation of the Retail Investors participation in
Mutual Funds and their investment into Equity.
While I write this, I believe the Government impetus should be to see
that the Retail Investors start participating and diverting their
investments into Mutual Fund and Equity which in my opinion should be
beneficial to the Company going forward.
Our efforts to rejuvenate our Sister Company's Branches to take
advantage of the perceived Government's keenness in reviving Retail
participation. Albeit, we could only be sure of the commitment after
their policies are declared. At least for the time being, we are
hopeful.
The Stock Market in last 3 months, is exhausted with a hope the new
Government gave and now it's correcting itself to where it started in
expectation. But, again as I said about the Government policies and
its fruition would finally decide about the future of the distribution
and collection Companies, like us.

OPERATIONS AND FUTURE OUTLOOK Investment Banking & Retail Mobilisation
Last 8 years was a drag on Indian businesses and which has become more
palpable in recent times. It is a known fact that Indian Economy is
going through a period where businesses are in shambles. The lead- ing
lights of Indian Corporates are declaring losses, which are un-
precedented in the history of India. The last two years also witnessed
erosions in the portfolios of lot many investors, Mutual Funds are
struggling to maintain their Asset Under Management. We are a by
product of good economy, sound stock market and futuristic growth of
the Corporate Sector results in business for us.
With the change of guard at the Center and reading the mind of the new
Government, it is felt that this Government is seriously worried about
the reduced participation of the Retail Investors which reflects in
Mutual Funds and investment into Equity by retail investors.
While I write this, I am not aware, though the intention is been to see
that these Retail Investors start participating and diverting their
sav- ings into investment in Mutual Funds and Equity, which can be
benefi- cial to your Company.
Our efforts to rejuvenate our Sister Company''s Branches now since
Government is keen on reviving this business, but, we would know their
commitment towards the same only after the policies are de- clared for
the future. At least in the time being, we are hopeful.
The stock market as of last 1½ month now is doing well, and combined
with the good policies, we can look for a better future in the coming
years.
