RISK FACTORS

An investment in our Equity Shares involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider each of

the following risk factors and all other informations set forth in this Draft Letter of Offer, including the

risks and uncertainties described below, before making an investment in our Equity Shares. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only risks that the Company currently faces. Additional risks

and uncertainties not presently known to the Company or that the Company currently believes to be

immaterial may also have an adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations and

financial condition. If any or some combinations of the following risk or other risks that are not currently

known or believed to be material, actually occur, our business, financial condition and results of

operations could suffer, the trading price of our Equity Shares could decline and you may lose all or part

of your investment. In making an investment decision with respect to the issue contemplated herein, you

must rely on your own examination of the Company and the terms of such issue including the merits and

risks involved. Unless specified or quantified in the relevant risk factors below, we are not in a position

to quantify the financial or other implications of any of the risks described in this section.

INTERNAL RISKS:

1. We are involved in a number of legal proceedings.

Our Company is involved in various Criminal, Civil & Tax related litigations which are at different

stages of adjudications in various forums. All criminal and civil cases have been filed by the company

while the tax cases have been filed by and against the company. No assurance can be given as to

whether these matters will be resolved in favour of or against our Company and/or these entities, nor

can an assurance be given that no further liability will arise out of these or future claims. A summary of the said pending litigations /demands /claims / notices and proceedings initiated against and by our

For more information please refer to “Outstanding Litigations and Material Developments”

commencing on page no. 125 of this Draft Letter of Offer.

2. Our ability to pay dividends in the future will depend upon future earnings, financial condition, cash

flows, working capital requirements, capital expenditures and lender consents and there can be no

assurance that we will be able to pay dividends in the future.

We currently intend to invest our future earnings, if any, to fund our growth. The amount of our future

dividend payments, if any, will depend upon our future earnings, financial condition, cash flows, working capital requirements and capital expenditures. In addition, any dividend payments we make are subject to

the prior consent of our lenders pursuant to the terms of the agreements we made with them. So, there can

be no assurance that we will be able to pay dividends in the future.

3. To ascertain the credit worthiness of our customers, we depend on our internal analysis and on the

information or representations made by the third parties, which may be materially incorrect,

incomplete or misleading. Any such misleading information may cause financial loss to the

Company.

Page 12:  · SECTION NO. CONTENT PAGE NO. I DEFINITIONS & ABBREVIATIONS Definitions 1 Conventional/General Terms 1 Issue Related Terms 2 Company/Industry Related Terms 4 Abbreviation 5 II

10

In ascertaining credit worthiness of our prospective customers, we largely depend on internal analysis

made by our field executives or by the manager at the branch level. Though we take all possible steps to

adhere to KYC norms, we may fail while assessing genuiness of our customers. Any failure on their

part to honour their commitments may have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition and

operations, as we continue to rely on the information which may be or may not be true.

4. Our Company has entered into agreements for credit facilities that contain customary restrictive

covenants, placing certain limitations on our Company.

Our Company has availed credit facilities from various banks for which appropriate agreements have

been entered into. By virtue of these agreements we are bound by certain restrictive covenants. These

restrictive covenants, inter alia, require us to take the prior consent of the lenders for amending our

capital structure, creating a charge on our assets, undertaking mergers or amalgamations, expansion or

diversification of our business and the like.

In the event that we breach a restrictive covenant, our lenders could deem us to be in default and seek

early repayment of loans or increase our interest rates in certain circumstances. Our ability to execute

expansion plans, including our ability to obtain additional financing on terms and conditions acceptable

to us, could be severely and negatively impacted as a result of these restrictions and limitations. Our

failure to comply with any of these covenants could result in an event of default, which could accelerate

our need to repay the related borrowings and trigger cross-defaults under other borrowings. An event of

default would also affect our ability to raise new funds or renew maturing borrowings as needed to

conduct our operations and pursue our growth initiatives.

5. We face competition from both public and private sector banks which may adversely affect our

profitability.

With the entry of public and private sector banks, the competition has become very acute. Such banks

have access to low cost funds, wider network as compared to us. Though we are presently able to offer

competitive rates to our customers, we may not be able to do so in future. We may also not be able to

retain our customers. Such high competition may reduce our income and profits and adversely affect

our business and our financial performance.

6. We may be, in the future, enter into strategic alliances, investments, partnerships and acquisitions.

This may harm our business, dilute your ownership interest and cause us to incur debt.

As part of our growth strategy, we may enter into strategic alliances, make strategic investments,

establish partnerships and/or make acquisitions relating to ancillary businesses, technologies etc. We

may not be able to identify suitable investment opportunities, partners or acquisition candidates. If we

do identify suitable investment opportunities, partners or acquisition candidates, we may have difficulty

in accurately assessing the candidates, risks, placing an accurate valuation on it and we may be unable

to negotiate terms commercially acceptable or favourable to us or complete those transactions at all.

Any potential acquisition, alliance or joint venture could involve a number of specific risks, including

diversion of management's attention, higher costs, unanticipated events or circumstances, legal

liabilities, failure of the business of the acquired company, fall in value of investments and amortization

of acquired intangible assets, some or all of which could have a material adverse impact on our

business, financial condition and results of operations.

7. Possible Delay in Deployment of Funds will affect the profitability of our Company.

The funds are being raised for facilitating the objects mentioned under “Objects of the Issue” beginning on page no. 44 of this Draft Letter of Offer. However there can be a possible delay in deployment of

funds due to unforeseen circumstances. All these factors may suitably affect the deployment of funds

and thereby profitability of our Company.

Page 13:  · SECTION NO. CONTENT PAGE NO. I DEFINITIONS & ABBREVIATIONS Definitions 1 Conventional/General Terms 1 Issue Related Terms 2 Company/Industry Related Terms 4 Abbreviation 5 II

11

8. Our inability to make payments towards our financial indebtedness could adversely affect our

financial condition and results of operations.

We are financially indebted to the tune of Rs. 1835.81 Lacs to various financial institutions as on 31st

March, 2010. Although we have been regular in making payments against these loans, we however do

not assure that we would be regular in doing so in near future as we may not generate cash sufficient to

enable us to service our debt and make periodic repayments towards it as a result of certain internal

factors as well as unforeseen factors. Any defaults made in servicing the debt as well as the repayments

may invoke legal proceedings against us together with financial penalties which may adversely affect

our financial condition.

9. Our success to a large extent depends upon our core management team and skilled personnel and

our ability to attract and retain such persons.

Many of the core management and skilled personnel of our Company have a decade or more of relevant

industry experience and they have been integral to the growth of our Company. Our success largely

depends on the core management team and skilled personnel who oversee the day-to-day Operations,

strategy and growth of our business. The Promoters of the Company have expertise and have vast

exposure in financial services. If one or more members of our core management team are unable or

unwilling to continue in their present positions, such persons may be difficult to replace and our

Company’s operations may be affected. In addition, our success in expanding our business will also

depend, in part, on our ability to attract, retain and motivate appropriately qualified skilled personnel.

Our failure to successfully attract and retain our core management team and skilled personnel could

adversely affect our operations.

10. Major fraud, lapses of internal control or system failures could adversely impact Company’s

business.

Our Company is vulnerable to risk arising from the failure of employees to adhere to approved

procedures, system controls, fraud, system failures, information system disruptions, communication

systems failure and interception during transmission through external communication channels or networks Failure to protect fraud or breach in security may adversely affect our Company’s operations

and financial performance. Our reputation could also be adversely affected by significant fraud

committed by our employees, agents, customers or third parties.

11. Our Company may incur losses in future financial years due to the internal & external risk

factors.

Every business is averse to risk and may incur loss in future due to various factors inherent to them

being internal and external risk factors. Our industry is exposed to economic scenario in the Country as

well as developments in financial service industry. Any slow-down phase in the economic growth may

have a negative impact on the financial service industry including other industries and our Company

could also be impacted by the same. Downturns or disruptions in the securities markets could reduce

transaction volumes, cause a decline in the business or adversely impact our profitability and ability to

sustain our present rapid growth rate.

12. Our failure to manage growth effectively may adversely impact our business.

Our ability to grow depends primarily upon our ability to manage key issues such as increasing market

share, selecting and retaining skilled manpower, maintaining an effective technology platform that may

be continually upgraded, developing a knowledge base to face emerging challenges, and ensuring a high standard of customer service. The inability of our Company to effectively manage any of these

issues may adversely affect our Company’s business and future financial performance.

13. The Issuer has unsecured debt that is repayable on demand.

The Issuer has availed certain unsecured loans and repayment of these loans may be called by lenders at

any time. In such event, we would need to find alternative sources of financing, which may not be

available on commercially reasonable terms or at all. This may have an adverse effect on our business operations and financial condition.

14. If we cannot secure the additional capital we need to fund our operations on acceptable terms or

at all, our business will suffer.

Our business requires significant capital. We have historically relied on significant equity issuances,

Credit facilities from the various Banks as well as cash flow from operations to fund our operations,

capital expenditures and expansion.

Expanding our geographic footprint and extending new proprietary and distributed product and service

offerings to our members will have an impact on our long-term capital requirements, which are expected

to increase significantly.

Our ability to obtain additional capital is subject to a variety of uncertainties, including our future

financial position, the continued success of our core loan products, our results of operations and cash

flows, any necessary government regulatory approvals, contractual consents, general market conditions

for capital-raising activities, and economic, political and other conditions in India and elsewhere. In

addition, adverse developments in the Indian and world credit markets may significantly increase our

debt service costs and the overall costs of our borrowings. We may not be able to secure timely

additional financing on favorable terms, or at all. The terms of any additional financing may place limits on our financial and operating flexibility. Any new securities we issue could have additional rights,

preferences and privileges than those available to our shareholders. Any such issuances of equity and

securities convertible into equity would dilute the holding of Equity Shareholders. If we are unable to

obtain adequate financing or financing on terms satisfactory to us, if and when we require it, our ability

to grow or support our business and to respond to business challenges could be limited and our business

prospects, financial condition and results of operations would be materially and adversely affected.

15. Loans due within one year account for all of our interest income, and a significant reduction in

short term loans may result in a corresponding decrease in our interest income.

All of the loans we issue are due within one year of disbursement. The relatively short-term nature of our

loans means that our long-term interest income stream is less certain than if a portion of our loans were

for a longer term. In addition, our members may not obtain new loans from us upon maturity of their

existing loans, particularly if competition increases. The potential instability of our interest income could

materially and adversely affect our results of operations and financial position.

16. Contingent liabilities could adversely affect our financial condition.

As of 31st

March, 2010 we had contingent liabilities in the following amounts, as disclosed in our

financial statements:

• Disputed Demand of Income Tax Rs. 58.70 Lacs (Previous year Rs.58.70 Lacs) (Against which

the Company has paid Rs. 11.00 Lacs [Previous year Rs.11.00 Lacs] under protest which are

shown as advances)

If any time we must recognize a material portion of these contingent liabilities, it would have a material

adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

17. Our Branch Managers and other employees may be the target of violent crimes which may be

adversely affect our business, operations, and ability to recruit and retain employees.

Page 15:  · SECTION NO. CONTENT PAGE NO. I DEFINITIONS & ABBREVIATIONS Definitions 1 Conventional/General Terms 1 Issue Related Terms 2 Company/Industry Related Terms 4 Abbreviation 5 II

13

We believe that the potential for crimes like theft & robberies is highest in the more remote villages we

serve, where our Branch Managers may be forced to transport cash further due to the lack of local

banking facilities. To the extent that our employees are subject to violent attacks, theft or robbery in the

course of their duties, our ability to service such areas will be adversely affected and our employee

recruiting and retention efforts may be curtailed which would negatively impact our expansion and growth.

18. A failure of our operational systems or infrastructure, or those of third parties, could impair our

liquidity, disrupt our businesses, cause damage to our reputation and result in losses.

Our business is highly dependent on our ability to process a large number of transactions. Our financial,

accounting, data processing or other operating systems and facilities may fail to operate properly or

become disabled as a result of events that are wholly or partially beyond our control, adversely affecting

our ability to process these transactions. Additionally, shortcomings or failures in our internal processes

or systems could lead to an impairment of our financial condition, financial loss, disruption of our

business and reputational damage.

Our ability to operate and remain competitive will depend in part on our ability to maintain and upgrade

our information technology systems on a timely and cost-effective basis. Our failure to maintain or

improve or upgrade our management information systems in a timely manner could materially and

adversely affect our competitiveness, financial position and results of operations.

We may also be subject to disruptions of our operating systems, arising from events that are wholly or

partially beyond our control including, for example, computer viruses or electrical or telecommunication

service disruptions, which may result in a loss or liability to us.

19. If we fail to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting in the future, the accuracy

and timing of our financial reporting may be adversely affected.

We have taken steps intended to enhance our internal controls commensurate to the size of our business,

primarily through the formation of a designated internal audit team with additional technical accounting

and financial reporting experience. However certain matters such as fraud and embezzlement cannot be eliminated entirely given the cash nature of our business. If we fail to enhance our internal controls to

meet the demands that will be placed upon us as a listed company, we may be unable to report our

financial results accurately and prevent fraud. While we expect to remediate any such issues, we cannot

assure you that we will be able to do so in a timely manner, which could impair our ability to accurately

and timely report our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

20. Microcredit lending poses unique risks not generally associated with other forms of lending in

India, and, as a result, we may experience increased levels of Non-performing loans and related

provisions and write-offs that negatively impact our results of operations.

Our core mission of Micro Lending Operations is to provide loans to fund the small businesses and other

income generating activities of our members. Our members are typically poor and illiterate women living

in rural India, who have limited sources of income, savings and credit histories and who cannot provide

us with any collateral or security for their borrowings. As a result, our members pose a higher risk of

default than borrowers with greater financial resources and more established credit histories and

borrowers living in urban areas with better access to education, employment opportunities, and social

services. In addition, we rely on non-traditional guarantee mechanisms in connection with our loan

products, which are generally secured by informal individual and group guarantees, rather than tangible

assets. As a result, our loan products pose a higher degree of risk than loans secured with physical

collateral. Due to the precarious circumstances of our members and our non-traditional lending practices we may, in the future, experience increased levels of non-performing loans and related provisions and

write-offs that negatively impact our business and results of operations.

14

21. We require certain statutory and regulatory approvals for conducting our business and our failure

to obtain or retain them in a timely manner, or at all, may adversely affect our operations.

As a Category “A” NBFC, we are subject to regulation by Indian governmental authorities, including

the Reserve Bank of India, or RBI. Regulations stipulated by RBI require us to maintain a minimum capital adequacy of 12% and make provisions in respect of NPAs. The laws and regulations governing

us could change in the future and any such changes could adversely affect our business, our future

financial performance and in turn the price at which our Equity Shares are traded at BSE, by requiring a

restructuring of our activities, increasing costs or otherwise.

We require certain approvals, licenses, registrations and permissions for operating our business,

including registration with the RBI as a NBFC. For Approvals to carry on our Business refer to section

“Government and other Approvals” beginning on page no. 172 of this Draft Letter of Offer. Further,

such approvals, licenses, registrations and permissions must be maintained/renewed over time,

applicable requirements may change and we may not be aware of or comply with all requirements all of

the time. Additionally, we may need additional approvals from regulators to introduce new insurance and

other fee based products to our members. In particular, we are required to obtain a certificate of

registration for carrying on business as a NBFC that is subject to numerous conditions.

Additionally, we are required to make various filings with the RBI, the Stock Exchanges, the RoC and

other relevant authorities pursuant to the provisions of RBI regulations, Companies Act and other

regulations. If we fail to comply with these requirements, or a regulator claims we have not complied,

in meeting these requirements, we may be subject to penalties and compounding proceedings.

22. If we are unable to protect our trade names, others may be able to use our trade names to compete

more effectively.

We have not yet obtained trademark registrations for our corporate name Arman Financial Services

Limited and our logo. As a result, we may not be able to prevent the use of our name or variations

thereof by any other party, nor ensure that we will continue to have a right to use it. We further cannot

assure you that our goodwill in such brand name or logo will not be diluted by third parties due to our

failure to obtain the trademarks, which in turn would have a material adverse effect on our reputation, goodwill, business, financial condition and results of operations.

23. Delisting of Securities listed on Jaipur Stock Exchange may impact on financial position of the

Company.

The equity shares of the company are listed on BSE and JSE. There has not been any trading in the

Equity shares since long on JSE. We have already made application for delisting of our securities listed

on JSE vide Special resolution passed in the AGM held for the financial year 2004. But said Stock

Exchange has not delisted our securities yet and company has not paid any listing fees from date of

application of the same and said matter is pending since last 6 years. In future, we may be required to

pay listing fees as demanded by JSE if and when they delist our securities as per norms of the Listing

Agreement entered by us which could impact on financial position of our company.

24. The proposed objects of the issue for which funds are being raised have not been appraised by

any bank or financial institution. Any inability on our part to effectively utilize the Issue proceeds

could adversely affect our financials.

The objects of the issue for which part of the fund are being raised have not been appraised by any bank

or financial institution. In the absence of such independent appraisal, the requirement of funds raised

through this issue, as specified in the section titled “objects of the issue” are based on the company’s estimates and deployment of these funds is at the discretion of the management and the Board of

Directors of the company and will not be subject to monitoring by any independent agency. Any

inability on our part to effectively utilize the Issue proceeds could adversely affect our financials.

Page 17:  · SECTION NO. CONTENT PAGE NO. I DEFINITIONS & ABBREVIATIONS Definitions 1 Conventional/General Terms 1 Issue Related Terms 2 Company/Industry Related Terms 4 Abbreviation 5 II

15

25. Our insurance coverage may not adequately protect it against certain operating hazards and

this may have a material adverse effect on the company’s business.

We have taken insurance policiy to cover fire, earthquake for its registered office as we believes that the insurance cover all those risks , there can be no assurance that any claim under

the insurance policies maintained by the company will be honored fully, in part or on time. To the

extent that the company suffers loss or damage that is not covered by insurance or which exceeds the

insurance coverage, the results of operations or cash flows may be affected.

26. Seasonality of the business may have an adverse impact on our business.

Our business operations and the banking industry may be affected by seasonal trends in the Indian

economy. Generally, the period from October to March is the peak period in India for retail economic

activity. This increased, or seasonal, activity is the result of several holiday periods, improved weather

conditions and crop harvests. We generally experience higher volumes of business during this period.

Any significant event such as unforeseen floods, earthquakes, political instabilities, epidemics or

economic slowdowns during this peak season would materially and adversely affect our results of

operations and growth. During these periods, we may continue to incur operating expenses, but our

income from operations may be delayed or reduced.

27. The trading price of our Equity Shares may be subject to volatility and you may not be able to sell

your Equity Shares at or above the Issue Price.

The trading prices of publicly traded securities may be highly volatile. Factors affecting the trading price of our Equity Shares will include:

• variations in our operating results;

• announcements of new products, strategic alliances or agreements by us or by our competitors;

• increases and decreases in our member base;

• recruitment or departure of key personnel;

• changes in the estimates of our operating results or changes in recommendations by any securities

analysts that elect to research and report on our Equity Shares ;

• market conditions affecting the financial and microfinance sector, our members income generating

activities and the economy as a whole; and

• Adoption or modification of regulations, policies, procedures or programs applicable to our business.

In addition, if the stock markets experience a loss of investor confidence, the trading price of our Equity

Shares could decline for reasons unrelated to our business, financial condition or operating results. The

trading price of our Equity Shares might also decline in reaction to events that affect other companies in

our industry even if these events do not directly affect us.

Each of these factors, among others, could materially affect the price of our Equity Shares.

28. Future issuances of Equity Shares or future sales of Equity Shares by our Promoters and certain

shareholders, or the perception that such sales may occur, may result in a decrease of the market price

of our Equity Shares.

In the future, we may issue additional equity securities for financing and other general corporate

purposes. In addition, our Promoters and certain shareholders may dispose of their interests in our Equity

Shares directly, indirectly or may pledge or encumber their Equity Shares. Any such issuances or sales or

the prospect of any such issuances or sales could result in a dilution of shareholders’ holding or a

negative market perception and potentially in a lower market price of our Equity Shares.

16

29. A failure of our operational systems or infrastructure, or those of third parties, could impair our

liquidity, disrupt our businesses, cause damage to our reputation and result in losses.

Our business is highly dependent on our ability to process a large number of transactions. Our financial,

accounting, data processing or other operating systems and facilities may fail to operate properly or become disabled as a result of events that are wholly or partially beyond our control, adversely affecting

our ability to process these transactions. Additionally, shortcomings or failures in our internal processes

or systems could lead to an impairment of our financial condition, financial loss, disruption of our

business and reputational damage.

Our ability to operate and remain competitive will depend in part on our ability to maintain and upgrade

our information technology systems on a timely and cost-effective basis. Our failure to maintain or

improve or upgrade our management information systems in a timely manner could materially and

adversely affect our competitiveness, financial position and results of operations.

We may also be subject to disruptions of our operating systems, arising from events that are wholly or

partially beyond our control including, for example, computer viruses or electrical or telecommunication

service disruptions, which may result in a loss or liability to us.

30. The imposition of an interest-rate ceiling, may adversely affect our operating results and

financial position.

As a Category ‘A’ NBFC, we are subject to regulation by Indian governmental authorities, including

the Reserve Bank of India, or RBI. A number of states in India have enacted laws to regulate money

lending transactions. These state laws establish maximum rates of interest that can be charged by a person lending money. For unsecured loans, these maximum rates typically range from 12.0% to 15.0%

per annum.

The RBI, however, has not established a ceiling on the rate of interest that can be charged by a NBFC in

the microfinance sector. Currently, the RBI requires that the board of all NBFCs adopt an interest rate

model taking into account relevant factors such as the cost of funds, margin and risk premium. It is

unclear whether NBFCs are required to comply with the provisions of state money lending laws that

establish ceilings on interest rates. In the event that the government of any state in India requires us to comply with the provisions of their respective state money lending laws, or imposes any penalty against

us, our Directors or our officers, including for prior non-compliance, our business, results of operations

and financial condition may be adversely affected.

31. Future issuances or sales of the Equity Shares could significantly affect the trading price of

the Equity Shares.

Any future issuance of Equity Shares by our Company or the disposal of Equity Shares by any of the

Company’s major shareholders or the perception that such issuance or sale if occur may significantly

affect the trading price of the Equity Shares.

32. In absence of lock in requirements for Promoter in the rights issue, Promoter or Promoter

Group may offload part of their holding/ shareholding allotted in Rights Issue in the market.

Since the promoter’s shares are not under lock-in, the Promoter or Promoter Group are free and may

offload part of their shareholding in the secondary market, which may cause the price to be very volatile

or may cause the price to decline.

33. Company has not appointed Company Secretary as Compliance Officer in compliance with

Clause 47 of Listing Agreement entered with the BSE.

Clause 47 of the Listing Agreement requires Company Secretary should be a Compliance Officer of the

Company. Pursuant to Section 383A of the Companies Act, 1956, every Company having paid up share

Page 19:  · SECTION NO. CONTENT PAGE NO. I DEFINITIONS & ABBREVIATIONS Definitions 1 Conventional/General Terms 1 Issue Related Terms 2 Company/Industry Related Terms 4 Abbreviation 5 II

17

capital of Rs. 5 crores require to appoint Whole Time Company Secretary. Presently paid up capital of

the company is below of Rs. 5 crores, therefore company is not in default under Companies Act.

Company has appointed Mr. Aalok J Patel, the director of the Company as the Compliance Officer for

the proposed Rights Issue. However company has not received any notice from BSE for this. On

completion of this rights issue its paid up capital will exceed Rs. 5 crores and Company will have to appoint Whole time Company Secretary as the Compliance Officer of the Company.

34. Promoters and Promoter Group of the Company pledged 12,39,212 shares with IDBI Bank.

Promoters and Promoter Group of the issuer Company have pledged 12,39,212 equity shares (30.41%

of total paid up capital of the company) with IDBI Bank Ltd, C G Road Branch, Ahmedabad (Lender)

in respect of credit facilites availed by the Company. If there is any defult in repayment of said Loan or

payment of interest, Pledged Equity Shares upto value of outstanding amount, will be transfer in favour

of the said Lender, which may cause adverse effect on the present Shareholding of Promoter &

Promoter Group.

EXTERNAL RISKS

35. We are subject to fluctuations in interest rates and other market risks, which may materially and

adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. Our business substantially depends on interest income from operations. Market risk refers to the

probability of variations in our interest income or in the market value of our assets and liabilities due to

interest rate volatility. Changes in interest rates affect our interest income and the volume of loans we

issue. Increases in short-term interest rates could increase our cost of borrowing and adversely affect our

profitability. When interest rates rise, we must pay higher interest on our borrowings while interest

earned on our assets does not rise as quickly because our loans are issued at fixed interest rates. Interest rate increases could result in adverse changes in our interest income, reducing our growth rate and the

value of our financial assets.

The market value of a security with a fixed interest rate generally decreases when the prevailing interest

rates rise, which may have an adverse effect on our earnings and financial condition. In addition, we may

incur costs (which, in turn, will impact our results) as we implement strategies to reduce future interest

rate exposure. The market value of an obligation with a floating interest rate can be adversely affected

when interest rates increase. Increases in interest rates may reduce gains or require us to record losses on

sales of our loans and, as a result, adversely affect our financial condition.

36. Tax rates applicable to Our Company may increase and may have an adverse impact on our

business.

The tax rates including surcharge and education cess applicable to us for fiscal 2011 are 33.99%. Any

increase in the tax rates may have an adverse impact on our business and results of operations and we

can provide no assurance as to the extent of the impact of such changes.

37. The repeal of or changes in the regulatory policies that currently encourage financial institutions

to provide capital to the microfinance sector could adversely impact the cost and availability of capital.

The RBI requires domestic commercial banks operating in India to maintain 40.0% of their loan advances, or a credit equivalent amount of off-balance sheet exposure, whichever is higher, as priority

sector advances. These include advances to agriculture, including self help groups, or SHGs, and joint

liability groups, or JLGs, of individual farmers, small enterprises, retail trade, microcredit, education

loans and housing loans. In addition, the RBI also requires 18.0% of the loan advances to be applied

towards the agriculture sector and 10.0% towards the weaker sections, which are defined to include small

farmers owning less than five acres and artisans whose individual credit limit does not exceed Rs.

50,000.00. When banks are unable to meet these requirements, they often rely on specialized institutions, including Micro Finance Institutions, or MFIs, to provide them with access to qualifying advances

Page 20:  · SECTION NO. CONTENT PAGE NO. I DEFINITIONS & ABBREVIATIONS Definitions 1 Conventional/General Terms 1 Issue Related Terms 2 Company/Industry Related Terms 4 Abbreviation 5 II

18

through lending programs and loan assignments. These bank requirements result in significant funding

for the microfinance sector. To the extent that changes in bank regulations eliminate or reduce banks

requirements for priority sector advances, less capital would be available to MFIs. In such event, our

access to funds and the cost of our capital would be negatively impacted, and our results of operations

and financial condition would be adversely affected.

38. Natural disasters, terrorist attacks, pandemic diseases or other catastrophic events could adversely

impact our business and results of operations and financial condition.

Our registered office, branch offices and the majority of our infrastructure, including administrative,

sales, and other personnel are located in India. A substantial portion of our operations and most of our

members are located in the areas of rural India that are particularly vulnerable to the effects of natural

calamities such as floods or drought. In the event that an earthquake, terrorist attack or other catastrophe

were to destroy any part of our facilities, destroy or disrupt vital infrastructure systems or interrupt

operations for any extended period of time, our business, financial condition and operating results would

be adversely affected. In addition, to the extent that such occurrences and the adverse economic

conditions caused by them reduced our members’ income levels and their ability to repay loans made by

us, our loan repayments would decline and our results o f operations, ability to raise new capital at

acceptable rates and overall financial condition would be adversely affected. Pandemic disease, caused

by a virus such as H5N1, or the avian flu virus, or H1N1, the swine flu virus, could have an adverse

effect on our business. The potential impact of such a pandemic on our results of operations and financial

position is highly speculative, and would depend on numerous factors, including: the regions of the

world most affected; the effectiveness of treatment of the infected population; our insurance coverage

and related exclusions; the possible macroeconomic effects of a pandemic on our asset portfolio; the

effect on lapses and surrenders of existing policies, as well as sales of new policies; and many other variables.

39. All of our revenue is derived from business in India and a decrease in economic growth in India

could cause our business to suffer.

We derive all of our revenue from our operations in India and, consequently, our performance and the

quality and growth of our business are dependent on the health of the economy of India. This economy has sustained growth over the five years ended fiscal 2010 with an average real gross domestic product

growth rate of approximately 8.5%. However, the Indian economy may be adversely affected by factors

such as adverse changes in liberalization policies, social disturbances, terrorist attacks and other acts of

violence or war, natural calamities or interest rates changes, which may also affect the microfinance

industry. Any such factor may contribute to a decrease in economic growth in India which could

adversely impact our business and financial performance.

40. Political instability or changes in the Government in India or in the Government of the states

where we operate could cause us significant adverse effects.

We are incorporated in India and all of our operations, assets and personnel are located in India.

Consequently, our performance and the market price and liquidity of the Equity Shares may be affected

by changes in exchange rates and controls, interest rates, government policies, taxation, social and ethnic

instability and other political and economic developments affecting India. The central government has

traditionally exercised, and continues to exercise, a significant influence over many aspects of the

economy. Our business, and the market price and liquidity of the Equity Shares may be affected by

interest rates, changes in central government policy, taxation, social and civil unrest and other political,

economic or other developments in or affecting India. Since 1991, successive central governments have

pursued policies of economic liberalization and financial sector reforms. However, there can be no

assurance that such policies will be continued. A significant change in the central government‘s policies, in particular, those relating to the microfinance industry in India, could adversely affect our business,

financial condition and results of operations and could cause the price of our Equity Shares to decline.

Page 21:  · SECTION NO. CONTENT PAGE NO. I DEFINITIONS & ABBREVIATIONS Definitions 1 Conventional/General Terms 1 Issue Related Terms 2 Company/Industry Related Terms 4 Abbreviation 5 II

19

41. Lack of sufficient power, information technology infrastructure, or physical infrastructure could

limit or disrupt our operations and cause substantial adverse effects.

Any disruption in basic infrastructure, or the failure of the central, state, or local governments of India to

improve the existing infrastructure could negatively impact our ability to continue developing our products and delivering them to our members. This may result in additional costs for us and have an

adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

SECTION III – INTRODUCTION

SUMMARY

SUMMARY OF INDUSTRY

Economic Conditions

Recovery in the global economy picked up momentum in the fourth quarter of 2009. The speed of

recovery, however, remains significantly divergent. The projections for global output for 2010

generally point to consolidating recovery, led by the Emerging Market Economies (EMEs). The WTO

projects world trade to stage a strong recovery in 2010.

Concerns about domestic output growth are now subdued as the recovery is getting more broad-based.

This is the result of a rebound in industrial output, better prospects for the Rabi crop and continuing

resilience of the services sector. Current data suggest increasing levels of capacity utilization in recent

months. Subject to normal monsoons, output growth during 2010-11 is expected to gain further

momentum.

The risks to the overall global macroeconomic environment have, however, increased because of large

public debt in advanced economies, on the back of concerns relating to reduction in potential output,

high unemployment rates, impaired financial systems and premature exit from the policy stimulus.

Closer home, the improvement in global macroeconomic conditions is reflected in the turnaround in

India’s exports and the return of capital flows. With stronger recovery in EMEs driven largely by

domestic demand, improving exports and return of capital flows, EMEs face the risks of inflation and

asset price build up.

Growth Outlook

Support for sustained momentum in growth can be expected from all three major components, viz.,

agriculture, industry and services. Nevertheless, apart from monsoon related uncertainty, other

downside risks to growth need to be recognized. 1. Private consumption demand needs to improve significantly to support the growth momentum. 2. Global recovery, despite gaining strength, is expected

to remain fragile, which has implications for exports. 3. The exit from fiscal stimulus and the growth-

supportive monetary policy, unless calibrated carefully, could impact the growth process. Finally, the

domestic saving rate has exhibited some decline, led by significant decline in public sector savings.

This has adverse implications for the potential growth of the economy.(Source-Reserve Bank of India)

Non-Banking Financial Company

The global economy was hit by a severe credit crisis beginning in 2008 which converted into a

recession for many countries across the world. Indian economy was also affected by the same due to its

global linkages. However it recovered much faster than the global economy and the impact was also not

as severe as that of developed countries. During September 2008 the crisis led to a liquidity crunch in

financial markets and impacted the financial institutions in India. This review considers the impact on

NBFC sector, its current position and presents an outlook on the same. The data is for 19 CARE rated

NBFCs which cover more than 40% of the entire NBFC sector (excluding development financial

institutions, brokers and microfinance institutions) (Source –Reserve Bank of India)

Microfinance in India

By definition in India Micro-finance refers to small savings, credit and insurance services extended to

socially and economically disadvantaged segments of society. In the Indian context terms like "small

and marginal farmers", " rural artisans" and "economically weaker sections" have been used to broadly define micro-finance customers. (Source-Lok Capital Report)

Demand for Microfinance

Our country has a population of 116.60 Crores and a population growth rate of 1.548%.About 71% live

in rural areas, while 29% live in urban areas. India’s diverse economy encompasses traditional village

farming, modern agriculture, handicrafts, a wide range of modern industries, and a multitude of

services. Services are a major source of economic growth, accounting for more than half of India’s

output with less than one third being the labor force. Slightly more than half of the work force is in

agriculture, leading the government to articulate a rural economic development programmer that

includes creating basic infrastructure to improve the lives of the rural poor and boost economic

performance.

The economy has posted an average growth rate of more than 7% in the decade since 1997, reducing

poverty by about 10 percentage points. India achieved 8.5% GDP growth in 2006, 9.0% in 2007 and

7.3% in 2008, 6.5% in 2009. Decreases because of Global finance crisis are to be expected. The 2010

GDP is expected to be 7.2% thereby significantly expanding the manufacturing processes. Microfinance

is not a charity.

Around 300 million people or about 60 million households are living below the poverty line. It is further estimated that of these households, only about 20 percent have access to credit from the formal

sector and other percentage of people do not access credit the from the formal sector, they access

finance from the unorganized sector .The segment of the rural population above the poverty line but not

rich enough to be of interest to the formal financial institutions also does not have good access to the

formal financial intermediary services, including savings services.(Source –Bharat Microfinance

Report)

Trends in the Microfinance Industry

Microfinance in India is playing an important role in poverty alleviation and is widely credited for its

success both nationally and internationally. India’s labor force-Agriculture (60%), Industry (12%) and

services (28%) clearly indicate that even today agriculture is a major employment generator. However,

in terms of contribution to GDP, agriculture contributes only 17.2%, whereas industry (29.1%) and

services (53.7%) contribute much more.

From the above, it is evident that though there is scope for employment generation in agriculture, there

is a significant shift to services and industries, suggesting that there has been a migration of population

towards urban locations. With 25% of the population still living below the poverty line and an

unemployment rate of 6.8%, life in urban locations throughout the country is going to be more difficult.

Hence to meet this challenge, the Microfinance sector is reaching out to more of the urban poor. Thus there is a significant shift towards urban microfinance. (Source- www.sa-dhan.net)

Current Challenge in the Microfinance Industry

Microfinance is effectively moving towards a banking type of sector through gradual evolution. Clients

are aspiring for large credits for doing scaled up economic activity. Since RBI is stipulating higher

CAR norms, MFIs need to bring in capital to meet this growing demand of the clients. We need to link the clients with market and technologies. The need for this group is indeed costly as they are scattered

Page 25:  · SECTION NO. CONTENT PAGE NO. I DEFINITIONS & ABBREVIATIONS Definitions 1 Conventional/General Terms 1 Issue Related Terms 2 Company/Industry Related Terms 4 Abbreviation 5 II

23

and tend to use only tiny loans. Designing of the right products for clients is still a great challenge. To

cope with the growing needs the industry is expanding fast and as a result competent human resources

is increasingly becoming an issue.

Demand for Credit

In terms of demand for micro-credit, there are three segments:

1. Market segment, those who are landless and are engaged in agricultural work on a seasonal

basis, and manual laborers in forestry, mining, household industries, construction and transport.

2. Market segment is small and marginal farmers and rural artisans, weavers and those self-

employed in the urban informal sector as hawkers, vendors, and workers in household

microenterprises.

3. Market segment is of small and medium farmers who have gone in for commercial crops such

as surplus paddy and wheat, cotton and others engaged in dairying, poultry, fishery, etc. Among

non-farm activities, this segment includes those in villages and slums, engaged in processing or

manufacturing activity, running provision stores, repair workshops, tea shops, and various

service enterprises. (Source-www.basixindia.com)

Further, many more women were willing to work. This has been corroborated by the results of a survey

done by the National Sample Survey Organization (NSSO), 43rd round, which has revealed that there is

a vide variety of work which rural women combine with household work. In the NSSO survey it has

also been estimated that a large percentage of rural women in the age group of 15 years and above, who

are usually engaged in household work, are willing to accept work at household premises (29.3

percent), in activities such as dairy (9.5 percent), poultry (3 percent), cattle rearing, spinning and

weaving (3.4 percent), tailoring (6.1 percent) and manufacturing of wood and cane products etc. Amongst the women surveyed, 27.5 percent rural women were seeking regular full-time work, and 65.3

percent were seeking part-time work. To start or to carry on such work, 53.6 percent women wanted

initial finance on easy terms, and 22.2 percent wanted working capital facilities.

SECTION IV-ABOUT THE ISSUER COMPANY

KEY INDUSTRY REGULATION AND POLICIES

The following description is a summary of the relevant regulations and policies as prescribed by the

central / state governments that are applicable to the Company in India. The information detailed in this

chapter has been obtained from publications available in the public domain. The regulations set out

below are not exhaustive, and are only intended to provide general information to the investors and are

neither designed nor intended to be a substitute for professional legal advice.

Introduction

The Company is incorporated under the Companies Act, 1956 and complies with the provisions of the

said Act and the rules made by the Central Government along with the administrative instructions given

by the Government authorities from time to time.

Arman is one of the few Category `A’ Non Banking Finance Company (NBFC) - Asset Finance Company -`D’ in the state of Gujarat which is registered with Reserve Bank of India vide Certificate of

Registration No. 01.00066 under section 45-IA of the Reserve Bank of India Act, 1934 issued on 6th

November, 1998 to our company by Reserve Bank of India, Department of Non-Banking Supervision,

Ahmedabad Regional Office.

As per the RBI Act, a financial institution has been defined as a company which includes a non-banking

institution carrying on as its business or part of its business the financing activities, whether by way of

making loans or advances or otherwise, of any activity, other than its own and it is engaged in the

activities of loans and advances, acquisition of shares/stock/bonds/debentures/securities issued by the

Government of India or other local authorities or other marketable securities of like nature, leasing,

hire-purchase, insurance business, chit business but does not include any institution whose principal

business is that of carrying out any agricultural or industrial activities or the sale/purchase/construction

of immovable property.

Any company which carries on the business of a non-banking financial institution as its principal

business is to be treated as an NBFC. Since the term 'principal business' has not been defined in law, the

RBI has clarified through a press release (Ref. No. 1998-99/1269) in 1999, that in order to identify a

particular company as an NBFC, it will consider both the assets and the income pattern as evidenced

from the last audited balance sheet of the company to decide its principal business. The company will

be treated as an NBFC if its financial assets are more than 50 per cent of its total assets (netted off by

intangible assets) and income from financial assets should be more than 50 per cent of the gross

income. Both these tests are required to be satisfied as the determinant factor for principal business of a

company.

With effect from 1997, NBFCs were not permitted to commence or carry on the business of a non-

banking financial institution without obtaining a Certificate of Registration (CoR). Further, with a view

to imparting greater financial soundness and achieving the economies of scale in terms of efficiency of operations and higher managerial skills, the RBI has raised the requirement of minimum net owned

fund from Rs. 2.5 million to Rs. 20 million for the NBFC which commences business on or after April

21, 1999. Further, every NBFC is required to submit to the RBI a certificate, from its statutory auditor

within one month from the date of finalization of the balance sheet and in any case not later than

December 30th of that year, stating that it is engaged in the business of non-banking financial

institution requiring it to hold a CoR.

1. Regulation of NBFCs registered with the RBI

NBFCs are primarily governed by the RBI Act, 1934 (“RBI Act”), the Non-Banking Financial (Deposit

Accepting or Holding) Companies Prudential Norms (Reserve Bank) Directions, 2007, (“APD

Page 58:  · SECTION NO. CONTENT PAGE NO. I DEFINITIONS & ABBREVIATIONS Definitions 1 Conventional/General Terms 1 Issue Related Terms 2 Company/Industry Related Terms 4 Abbreviation 5 II

Directions”), the Non-Banking Financial Companies Acceptance of Public Deposits (Reserve Bank)

Directions, 1998, (“Public Deposit Directions”), the Non-Banking Financial (Non-Deposit Accepting

or Holding) Companies Prudential Norms (Reserve Bank) Directions, 2007 (“Non- Deposit Accepting

NBFC Directions”), and the provisions of the Non- Banking Financial Companies Prudential Norms

(Reserve Bank) Directions, 1998. In addition to these regulations, NBFCs are also governed by various circulars, notifications, guidelines and directions issued by the RBI from time to time.

2. Types of Activities that NBFCs are permitted to carry out

Although by definition, NBFCs are permitted to operate in similar sphere of activities as banks, there

are a few important, key differences. The most important distinctions are:

(i) an NBFC cannot accept deposits repayable on demand – in other words, NBFCs can only accept

fixed term deposits. Thus, NBFCs are not permitted to issue negotiable instruments, such as cheques

which are payable on demand; and

(ii) NBFCs are not allowed to deal in foreign exchange, even if they specifically apply to the RBI for

approval in this regard.

3. Types of NBFCs:

Section 45-IA of the RBI Act makes it mandatory for every NBFC to get itself registered with the

Reserve Bank in order to be able to commence any of the aforementioned activities.

Further, an NBFC may be registered as a deposit accepting NBFC (“NBFC-D”) or as a non-deposit accepting NBFC (“NBFC-ND”).

NBFCs registered with RBI are further classified as:

(i) asset finance companies;

(ii) investment companies; and/or

(iii) loan companies and/or

(iv) infrastructure finance companies

Our Company has been classified as an NBFC-D and is further classified as an “asset finance

company”. An asset finance company is an NBFC whose principal business is to finance physical assets

supporting productive / economic activity, such as automobiles, tractors, lathe machines, generator sets,

earth moving and material handling equipments, moving on own power and general purpose industrial

machines.

4. Regulatory Requiresments of an NBFC under the RBI Act

Net Owned Fund

Section 45-IA of the RBI Act provides that to carry on the business of a NBFC, an entity would have to

register as an NBFC with the RBI and would be required to have a minimum net owned fund of Rs.

2,00,00,000 (Rupees two crore only). For this purpose, the RBI Act has defined “net owned fund” to

mean:

(a) the aggregate of the paid-up equity capital and free reserves as disclosed in the latest balance sheet

of the company, after deducting (i) accumulated balance of losses, (ii) deferred revenue expenditure,

and (iii) other intangible assets; and

(b) further reduced by the amounts representing,

Page 59:  · SECTION NO. CONTENT PAGE NO. I DEFINITIONS & ABBREVIATIONS Definitions 1 Conventional/General Terms 1 Issue Related Terms 2 Company/Industry Related Terms 4 Abbreviation 5 II

57

(1) investment by such companies in shares of (i) its subsidiaries, (ii) companies in the same group, (iii)

other NBFCs, and

(2) the book value of debentures, bonds, outstanding loans and advances (including hire purchase and

lease finance) made to, and deposits with (i) subsidiaries of such companies; and (ii) companies in the same group to the extent such amount exceeds 10% of (a) above.

Reserve Fund

In addition to the above, Section 45-IC of the RBI Act requires NBFCs to create a reserve fund and

transfer therein a sum of not less than 20% of its net profits earned annually before declaration of

dividend. Such sum cannot be appropriated by the NBFC except for the purpose as may be specified by

the RBI from time to time and every such appropriation is required to be reported to the RBI within 21

days from the date of such withdrawal.

Maintenance of liquid assets

The RBI through notification dated January 31, 1998, as amended has prescribed that every NBFC shall

invest and continue to invest in unencumbered approved securities valued at a price not exceeding the

current market price of such securities an amount which shall, at the close of business on any day be not

less than 10% in approved securities and the remaining in unencumbered term deposits in any

scheduled commercial bank; the aggregate of which shall not be less than 15% of the public deposit

outstanding at the last working day of the second preceding quarter.

5. Obligations of NBFC-D under the Public Deposit Directions

The RBI’s Public Deposit Directions governs the manner in which NBFCs may accept and/or hold

public deposits. The Public Deposit Directions places the following restrictions on NBFCs in

connection with accepting public deposits:

1. Prohibition from accepting any demand deposits: NBFCs are prohibited from accepting any public

deposit which is repayable on demand.

Further, an asset finance company, (a) having net owned funds Rs. 25,00,000/- (Rupees twenty five lac

investment grade credit rating from a notified credit rating agency, may, accept or renew public

deposits not exceeding four times of its net owned funds.

3. Downgrading of credit-rating: In the event that the credit rating issued by a credit rating agency

recognised by RBI, for an asset finance company is downgraded below the minimum specified

investment grade, with respect to the relevant credit rating agency, the NBFC must (a) forthwith stop

accepting public deposit, (b) report the position of the credit rating within fifteen working days to the

RBI, and, (c) reduce, within three years from the date of such downgrading of credit rating, the amount

norms, and other specified prudential requirements prescribed under the APD Directions. Some of the

important obligations are as follows:

i) Income Recognition: NBFC-Ds are required to follow recognised accounting principles in

connection with recognition of income. Income including interest/discount or any other

charges on NPA is recognised only when it is actually realised. Any such income

recognised before the asset became nonperforming and remaining unrealised must be

reversed. With respect to hire purchase assets, where instalments are overdue for more than

12 months, income shall be recognised only when hire charges are actually received. Any

such income taken to the credit of profit and loss account before the asset became non-

taking into account the degree of well defined credit weaknesses and extent of dependence

on collateral security for realisation, classify its lease/hire purchase assets, loans and

advances and any other forms of credit into the following classes, namely:

• Standard assets

• Sub standard assets

• Doubtful assets and

• Loss assets

Further, an NBFC-D must, after taking into account the time lag between an account becoming

nonperforming, its recognition as such, the realisation of the security and the erosion over time in the

value of security charged, make provision against sub-standard assets, doubtful assets and loss assets in

the manner prescribed by RBI.

iii) Loans against NBFC’s own shares prohibited: No NBFC-D can lend against its own shares, as of

July 1, 2008. Any outstanding loan granted by a NBFC-D against its own shares on the date of

commencement of these Directions shall be recovered by the NBFC as per the repayment schedule.

iv) NBFC failing to repay public deposit prohibited from making loans and investments: A NBFC-D

which has failed to repay any public deposit or part thereof in accordance with the terms and conditions

of such deposit, cannot grant any loan or other credit facility by whatever name called or make any

investment or create any other asset as long as such default exists.

v) Exposure to capital-markets: Every NBFC-D with total assets of Rs. 100 crore and above according

indicated under separate heads of account as under:

• provisions for bad and doubtful debts

Such provisions shall not be appropriated from the general provisions and loss reserves held if any, by

the NBFC-D and for each year shall be debited to the profit and loss account. The excess of provisions

if any, held under the heads general provisions and loss reserves may be written back without making

previous 21 days audited balance sheet, is required to submit a monthly return within a period of 7 days

of the expiry of the month to which it pertains in the prescribed format to the Regional Office of the

Department of Non-Banking Supervision of the RBI.

ix) Fair Practices Code: The RBI has framed the fair practice guidelines, to promote good and fair

practices by setting minimum standards to be adhered to by NBFCs in dealing with customers. These

guidelines require NBFCs to ensure that they meet the commitments and standards specified therein for the products and services they offer and in the procedures and practices their staff follows, their

products and services meet relevant laws and regulations in letter and spirit, and their dealings with

customers rest on ethical principles of integrity and transparency. Further, the said guidelines prescribe

the requirements in connection with information to be provided and disclosures to be made by NBFCs

to their customers. Accordingly, the guidelines require NBFCs to provide information on interest rates,

common fees and charges, provide clear information explaining the key features of their services and

products that customers are interested in, provide information on any type of product and service offered, that may suit the customer’s needs, tell the customers about the various means through which

products and services are offered, and provide more information on the key features of the products,

including applicable interest rates / fees and charges.

x) KYC Guidelines: NBFCs have been advised to follow certain customer identification procedure for

opening of accounts and monitoring transactions of suspicious nature for the purpose of reporting it to

appropriate authority, (“KYC Norms”). Accordingly, NBFCs have been advised to ensure that a proper

policy framework on ‘know your customer’ and anti-money laundering measures is formulated and put

in place with the approval of the RBI. The KYC Norms also require that while preparing operational

guidelines NBFCs may keep in mind to treat the information collected from the customer for the

purpose of opening of account as confidential and not divulge any details thereof for cross selling or

any other purposes. NBFCs may, therefore, ensure that information sought from the customer is

relevant to the perceived risk, is not intrusive, and is in conformity with the guidelines issued in this regard. Any other information from the customer should be sought separately with his /her consent and

after opening the account.

Norms for excessive interest rates

RBI through its circular dated May 24, 2007 directed all NBFCs to put in place appropriate internal

principles and procedures in determining interest rates and processing and other charges. In addition to

the aforesaid instruction RBI has issued a circular dated January 2, 2009 and a master circular on Fair

Practices Code dated July 1, 2009 for regulating the excessive rates of interest charged by the NBFCs. The aforementioned circular and the master circular stipulate that the board of each NBFC shall adopt

Page 62:  · SECTION NO. CONTENT PAGE NO. I DEFINITIONS & ABBREVIATIONS Definitions 1 Conventional/General Terms 1 Issue Related Terms 2 Company/Industry Related Terms 4 Abbreviation 5 II

an interest rate model taking into account the various relevant factors such as cost of funds, margin and

risk premium etc. The rate of interest and the approach for gradation of risk and the rationale for

charging different rates of interest for different categories of borrowers shall be required to be disclosed

to the borrowers in the application form and communicated explicitly in the sanction letter. Further, the

same is also required to be made available on the company’s website or be published in the relevant newspapers and is required to be updated in the event of any change therein. Further, the rate of interest

Pursuant to RBI circular (DNBS.PD/CC 94/03.10.042/2006-07) dated May 8, 2007, the RBI has

proposed certain corporate governance guidelines for the consideration of all NBFC–D with an asset

size of Rs. 20 crore or more. The guidelines recommend that such NBFCs constitute an Audit

Committee, a Nomination Committee (to ensure that fit and proper persons are nominated as directors

on their respective boards) and a Risk Management Committee to institute risk management systems.

The guidelines have also issued instructions relating to credit facilities to directors, loans and advances

to relatives of the directors of the said NBFCs or to the directors of other companies and their relatives

and other entities, timeframe for recovery of such loans, etc. Such NBFCs are also required to frame

internal corporate governance guidelines based on the guidelines issued by the RBI on May 8, 2007.

8. Accounting Standards & Accounting policies

Subject to the changes in Indian Accounting Standards and regulatory environment applicable to a

NBFC we may change our accounting policies in the future and it might not always be possible to determine the effect on the Profit and Loss account of these changes in each of the accounting years

preceding the change.

In such cases our profit/ loss for the preceding years might not be strictly comparable with the profit/

loss for the period for which such accounting policy changes are being made.

LIMITED REVIEW REPORT – FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

To

The Board of Directors

Arman Financial Services Limited

Ahmedabad

1. We have reviewed the accompanying unaudited Financial Statements (incorporating Profit & Loss

Account and Assets and Liabilities) of Arman Financial Services Limited (the Company) for the

period ended 30th June, 2010 for the purposes of its inclusion in the offer document prepared by the

Company in connection with its proposed Rights Issue. These financial Statements are the

responsibility of the Company's Management. Our responsibility is to issue a report on these

financial statements based on our review.

2. We conducted our review in accordance with the Standard on Review Engagement (SRE) 2400,

“Engagements to Review Financial Statements” issued by The Institute of Chartered Accountants

of India. This standard requires that we plan and perform the review to obtain moderate assurance

as to whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. A review is limited

primarily to inquiries of company personnel and analytical procedures applied to financial data and

thus provide less assurance than an audit. We have not performed an audit and accordingly, we do

not express an audit opinion.

3. Based on our review conducted as above nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe

that the accompanying unaudited financial statements prepared in accordance with applicable

accounting standards and other recognised accounting practices and policies has not disclosed the

information required to be disclosed in terms of Securities and Exchange Board of India (Issue of

Capital and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2009 issued by SEBI on August, 26, 2009

including the manner in which it is to be disclosed, or that it contains any material misstatement.

4. This report is intended solely for inclusion in the Offer Document in connection with the proposed

Rights Issue of the equity shares of the Company and is not to be used, referred to or distributed for

any other purpose without our prior written consent.

nominee, becoming entitled to the Equity Shares by reason of the death of the original Equity

Shareholder(s), shall be entitled to the same advantages to which he would be entitled if he/she were the

registered holder of the Equity Shares. Where the nominee is a minor, the Equity Shareholder(s) may

also make a nomination to appoint, in the prescribed manner, any person to become entitled to the

Equity Share(s), in the event of death of the said holder, during the minority of the nominee. A

nomination shall stand rescinded upon the sale of the Equity Share by the person nominating. A

transferee will be entitled to make a fresh nomination in the manner prescribed. When the Equity Share

is held by two or more persons, the nominee shall become entitled to receive the amount only on the demise of all the holders. Fresh nominations can be made only in the prescribed form available on

request at the Registered Office of our Company or such other person at such addresses as may be

notified by our Company. The applicant can make the nomination by filling in the relevant portion of

the CAF. Only one nomination would be applicable for one folio. Hence, in case the Equity

Shareholder(s) has / have already registered the nomination with our Company, no further nomination

needs to be made for Equity Shares to be allotted in this Issue under the same folio. In case the

allotment of Equity Shares is in dematerialized form, there is no need to make a separate nomination for the Equity Shares to be allotted in this Issue. Nominations registered with respective DP of the

applicant would prevail. If the applicant requires change in the nomination, they are requested to inform

their respective DP.

Exchange, as a part of the Issue and not preferential allotment.

Mode of Payment of Refund

Applicants should note that on the basis of name of the applicants, Depository Participant’s name,

Depository Participant-Identification number and Beneficiary Account Number provided by them in the

Composite Application Form, the Registrar to the Issue will obtain from the Depositories, the

applicant’s bank account details including nine digit MICR code. Hence, applicants are advised to

immediately update their bank account details as appearing on the records of the depository participant.

Please note that failure to do so could result in delays in credit of refunds to applicants at the applicant’s

sole risk and neither the Lead Manager nor the Company shall have any responsibility and undertake

any liability for the same.

The payment of refund, if any, would be done through various modes in the following order of

preference:

1. ECS (Electronic Clearing Service) – Payment of refund would be done through ECS for Investors

having an account at any centre where such facility has been made available. This mode of payment of

refunds would be subject to availability of complete bank account details including the MICR code as

appearing on a cheque leaf, from the Depositories. The payment of refunds is mandatory for Investors

having a bank account at the centers where ECS facility has been made available by the RBI (subject to

availability of all information for crediting the refund through ECS), except where the Investor, being eligible, opts to receive refund through NEFT, direct credit or RTGS.

2. NEFT (National Electronic Fund Transfer) – Payment of refund shall be undertaken through NEFT

wherever the Investors’ bank has been assigned the Indian Financial System Code (IFSC), which can be

linked to a Magnetic Ink Character Recognition (MICR), if any, available to that particular bank

branch. IFSC Code will be obtained from the website of RBI as on a date immediately prior to the date

of payment of refund, duly mapped with MICR numbers. Wherever the Investors have registered their nine digit MICR number and their bank account number while opening and operating the demat

account, the same will be duly mapped with the IFSC Code of that particular bank branch and the

payment of refund will be made to the Investors through this method. Our Bank in consultation with the

Lead Managers may decide to use NEFT as a mode of making refunds. The process flow in respect of

refunds by way of NEFT is at an evolving stage and hence use of NEFT is subject to operational

feasibility, cost and process efficiency. In the event that NEFT is not operationally feasible, the

payment of refunds would be made through any one of the other modes as discussed herein.

3. Direct Credit – Investors having bank accounts with the Bankers to the Issue shall be eligible to

receive refunds through direct credit. Charges, if any, levied by the relevant bank(s) for the same would

be borne by our Company.

4. RTGS (Real Time Gross Settlement) – Investors having a bank account at any of the centres where

such facility has been made available and whose refund amount exceeds Rs. 1 Lacs, have the option to

receive refund through RTGS. Such eligible Investors who indicate their preference to receive refund

through RTGS are required to provide the IFSC code in the CAF. In the event the same is not provided,

refund shall be made through ECS. Charges, if any, levied by the Refund Bank(s) for the same would

be borne by our Bank. Charges, if any, levied by the Investors’ bank receiving the credit would be

borne by the Investor.

5. For all other Investors, including those who have not updated their bank particulars with the MICR

code the refund orders will be dispatched under certificate of posting for value up to Rs. 1,500 and

Page 210:  · SECTION NO. CONTENT PAGE NO. I DEFINITIONS & ABBREVIATIONS Definitions 1 Conventional/General Terms 1 Issue Related Terms 2 Company/Industry Related Terms 4 Abbreviation 5 II

208

through speed post / registered post for refund orders of Rs. 1,500 and above. Such refunds will be

made by cheques, pay or demand drafts drawn in favour of the sole / first Investor and payable at par.

6. Credit of refunds to Investors in any other electronic manner permissible under the banking law,

be sent under certificate of posting. Such refund orders would be payable at par at all places

where the applications were originally accepted. The same would be marked ‘Account Payee

only’ and would be drawn in favour of the sole /first Investor. Adequate funds would be made

available to the Registrar to the Issue for this purpose.

Printing of Bank Particulars on Refund Orders

As a matter of precaution against possible fraudulent encashment of refund orders due to loss or

misplacement, the particulars of the applicant’s bank account are mandatorily required to be given for

printing on the refund orders. Bank account particulars will be printed on the refund orders/refund

warrants, which can then be deposited only in the account specified. In case the share held in demat

mode, such bank account particulars will be obtained from the Depository. The Company will in no

way be responsible if any loss occurs through these instruments falling into improper hands either

through forgery or fraud.

Allotment advice / Share Certificates/ Demat Credit

Allotment advice/ share certificates/ demat credit or letters of regret will be dispatched to the registered

address of the first named Investor or respective beneficiary accounts will be credited within 15 days,

from the Issue Closing Date. In case the Company issues allotment advice, the relative shared

certificates will be dispatched within one month from the date of the allotment. Allottees are requested

to preserve such allotment advice (if any) to be exchanged later for share certificates.

Option to receive Equity Shares in Dematerialized Form

Investors to the Equity Shares of our Company issued through this Issue shall be allotted the securities

in dematerialized (electronic) form at the option of the Investor. Our Company signed a tripartite

agreement with NSDL on April 30, 2010 and CDSL on April 20, 2010 which enables the Investors to

hold and trade in securities in a dematerialized form, instead of holding the securities in the form of

physical certificates.

In this Issue, the allottees who have opted for Equity Shares in dematerialized form will receive their

Equity Shares in the form of an electronic credit to their beneficiary account as given in the CAF, after

verification with a depository concerned.

Investor will have to give the relevant particulars for this purpose in the appropriate place in the CAF.

Allotment advice, refund order (if any) would be sent directly to the Investor by the Registrar to the

Issue but the Investor’s depository participant will provide to him the confirmation of the credit of such

Equity Shares to the Investor’s depository account. CAFs, which do not accurately contain this

information, will be given the Equity Shares in physical form. No separate CAFs for Equity Shares in

physical and/or dematerialized form should be made. If such CAFs are made, the CAFs for physical

Equity Shares will be treated as multiple CAFs and is liable to be rejected. In case of partial allotment,

allotment will be done in demat option for the Equity Shares sought in demat and balance, if any, will

be allotted in physical Equity Shares.

INVESTORS MAY PLEASE NOTE THAT THE EQUITY SHARES OF THE COMPANY CAN

BE TRADED ON THE STOCK EXCHANGES ONLY IN DEMATERIALIZED FORM.

209

Procedure for availing the facility for allotment of Equity Shares in this Issue in the electronic form is

as under:

Open a beneficiary account with any depository participant (care should be taken that the beneficiary account should carry the name of the holder in the same manner as is exhibited in the records of the

Company. In the case of joint holding, the beneficiary account should be opened carrying the names of

the holders in the same order as with the Company). In case of Investors having various folios in the

Company with different joint holders, the Investors will have to open separate accounts for such

holdings. Those Equity Shareholders who have already opened such beneficiary account(s) need not

adhere to this step.

For Equity Shareholders already holding Equity Shares of the Company in dematerialized form as on

the Record Date, the beneficial account number shall be printed on the CAF. For those who open

accounts later or those who change their accounts and wish to receive their Equity Shares pursuant to

this Issue by way of credit to such account, the necessary details of their beneficiary account should be

filled in the space provided in the CAF. It may be noted that the allotment of Equity Shares arising out

of this Issue may be made in dematerialized form even if the original Equity Shares of the Company are

not dematerialized.

Nonetheless, it should be ensured that the depository account is in the name(s) of the Equity

Shareholders and the names are in the same order as in the records of the Company.

Responsibility for correctness of information (including Investor’s age and other details) filled in the

CAF vis-à‐vis such information with the Investor’s depository participant, would rest with the Investor.

Investors should ensure that the names of the Investors and the order in which they appear in CAF

should be the same as registered with the Investor’s depository participant.

If incomplete / incorrect beneficiary account details are given in the CAF, the Investor will get Equity

Shares in physical form.

The Equity Shares allotted to applicants opting for issue in dematerialized form, would be directly

credited to the beneficiary account as given in the CAF after verification. Allotment advice, refund

order (if any) would be sent directly to the applicant by the Registrar to the Issue but the applicant’s

depository participant will provide to him the confirmation of the credit of such Equity Shares to the

applicant’s depository account. Renouncees will also have to provide the necessary details about their

beneficiary account for allotment of Equity Shares in this Issue. In case these details are incomplete or

incorrect, the application is liable to be rejected.

Interest in case of delay on allotment / dispatch

The Company will issue and dispatch allotment advice / share certificates / demat credit and/ or letters

of rejection along with refund order or credit the allotted securities to the respective beneficiary

accounts, if any, within a period of 15 days from the Issue Closing Date. If such money is not repaid

within eight 8 from the day the Company becomes liable to pay it, the Company shall pay that money with interest as stipulated under Section 73 of the Companies Act.

Disposal of application and application money

No receipt will be issued for the application moneys received. However, the Bankers to the Issue /

Registrar to the Issue receiving the CAF / application on plain paper will acknowledge its receipt. In the

event of shares not being allotted in full, the excess amount paid on application will be refunded to the

applicant within 15 days of the Issue Closing date.
