Industry Overview: India has certainly the potential to become a double-digit growth
economy. In order to fulfill its ambition, it requires a strong financial
sector. India’s financial sector has come a long way since liberalisation
started in 1990 and has been a key contributor to the growth. Access
to financial services has improved in a big way but remains below than
that of scenario in similar economies. The Government and the RBI
have initiated several policies for expanding the availability of financial
services to common masses. However, a large part of financial assets is
concentrated among few institutions which is limiting the inhibiting
competition and passing on the benefits of competition. Non-Banking
Finance Companies (NBFCs) like Muthoot Finance play an important
role in filling this vacuum. NBFCs have been able to expand nationally
contributing to credit growth and providing the last mile connectivity,
thereby fostering financial inclusion.
ECONOMIC SCENARIO
Global recovery continues, but at an ever-slowing and increasingly
fragile pace. These developments led International Monetary Fund to a
further broad-based reduction in their baseline projections for
economic growth in 2016 and 2017. The global macroeconomic
landscape is currently chartering a rough and uncertain terrain
characterized by weak growth of world output. The situation has been
exacerbated by: (i) declining prices of a number of commodities, with
reduction in crude oil prices being the most visible among them, (ii)
turbulent financial markets (more so equity markets), and (iii) volatile
exchange rates. These conditions reflect extreme risk-aversion
behaviour of global investors, thus putting many, and in particular,
commodity-exporting economies under considerable stress. Even in
these trying and uncertain circumstances, India’s growth story has
largely remained positive on the strength of domestic absorption, and
the country has registered a robust and steady pace of economic
growth in 2015-16 as it did in 2014-15. Even in cloudy scenario of
economic development, India remained fastest growing economy in
the world. However financial sector saw a mixed performance wherein
banking industry saw dramatic downward trends due to increasing and
unmanageable non-performing assets which led most of leading banks
to show a loss or reduced profit, on the other hand, leading Non-
Banking Financial Companies showed a positive growth in business and
profit in comparison with previous year.

Government Initiatives:
Several measures were outlined in the Union Budget 2015-16 that
aimed at reviving and accelerating investment:-
The Prime Minister of India has launched the Micro Unit Development and Refinance Agency (MUDRA) to fund and promote Micro Finance Institutions (MFIs), which would provide loans to small and vulnerable sections of the business community.
Government of India’s ‘Jan Dhan’ initiative for financial inclusion is gaining momentum, as the number of bank accounts opened by 15th July, 2015 has more than doubled to 169 million from 68.7 million at end of October 2014. Government of India aims to extend insurance, pension and credit facilities to those excluded from these benefits under the Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojana (PMJDY).
NBFCs shall be eligible for deduction to the extent of 5% of their income in respect of provision for bad and doubtful debts (NPAs).
FDI will be allowed beyond the 18 specified NBFC activities in the automatic route in other activities which are regulated by financial sector regulators.
The Pradhan Mantri Mudra Yojana (PMMY) was launched for the benefit of bottom of the pyramid entrepreneurs. Banks and NBFC-MFIs have reported that the amount sanctioned under PMMY had reached about 1 Lakh Crore to over 2.5 Crores borrowers by early February 2016, while the target next year is raised to 180,000 Crores.
Investment limit for foreign entities in Indian stock exchanges will be enhanced from 5% to 15% on par with domestic institutions.
It is proposed to provide additional options to banking companies and financial institutions, including NBFCs, for reversal of input tax credits with respect to non-taxable services provided by them by way of extending deposits, loans and advances with effect from 1st April, 2016.
Gold Monetization Scheme - The Gold monetization scheme is
basically a new deposit tool to ensure mobilization of gold held
by households and institutions of the country and facilitate its
use for productive purposes. In the long run it aims to reduce
the country’s reliance on the import of gold.
Page 15 Source: Company, www.dynamiclevels.com
Growth prospects:
Widening their canvas Muthoot believes that gold loan provides
further opportunities for growth and it should continue to be mainstay
revenue generator for the Company. However, they are keen to
expand offerings to meet needs of varied clientele, existing or potential
as well as be present in other segments of financial services business.
During 2015-16, they invested 44.91 Crores in Muthoot Homefin
(India) Ltd., acquiring 79% of its share capital, making it a subsidiary. It
focuses on extending affordable housing finance and targets customers
in Economically Weaker Sections (EWS) and Lower Income Groups (LIG)
in Tier II and Tier III locations. It operates on a ‘hub-and-spoke’ model
with centralised processing at the Corporate Office in Mumbai. The
Company is currently operating from Kochi, Mumbai, Pune, Nagpur,
Ahmedabad, Indore and Jaipur. It has a loan portfolio of 30 Crores as
on 31st March, 2016. Muthoot acquired stake in Belstar Investment
and Finance Private Limited (BIFPL) to make inroads in the
microfinance business. BIFPL has 76 branches spread over five states of
Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra and Puducherry
with a micro finance loan portfolio of 264 Crores as on 31st March,
2016. Going forward, They will enhance holding to 57%, thereby
making it a subsidiary. They acquired Muthoot Insurance Brokers Pvt
Limited (MIBPL), an IRDA registered insurance direct broker, making it
a wholly-owned subsidiary. This has further enabled them to diversify
their bouquet of investment products for the customers. They will
continue to leverage large customer base to grow this business
consistently. During 2015-16, Muthoot enhanced the shareholding in
Asia Asset Finance PLC, our Sri Lankan subsidiary from 51% to 59.70%.
This was the completion of first full financial year after becoming a
subsidiary of Muthoot Finance. The synergies have already started to
show results - interest income increased by 49% to LKR 1.2 Billion and
profitability by 73%, reaching LKR 175 Million. The asset base grew by
52%, reaching ` 8.1 Billion. The introduction of gold loans and the
expansion of micro finance portfolio have been the key contributors of
growth during 2015-16. We believe that these businesses will accrue
benefits to all stakeholders in the medium to long-term time horizon.

improved both its profitability and business growth. The current excellent performance could be attributed to

which is a step in the right direction. We feel that, with economic activities expected to pick up on account of
