Internal Risk Factors

1. We have been subject to an inspection by the RBI and any adverse action taken could affect our business
and operations.

As an NBFC, we are subject to periodic inspection by the RBI under Section 45N of the Reserve Bank of India
Act, 1934 (the “RBI Act”), pursuant to which the RBI inspects our books of accounts and other records for the
purpose of verifying the correctness or completeness of any statement, information or particulars furnished to the
RBI. Any irregularities found during such investigations by such regulatory authorities could, similarly, expose
us to warnings, penalties, and restrictions.

During the course of finalization of inspection, regulatory authorities share their findings and recommendations
with us and give us an opportunity to provide justification and clarifications. Further, such regulatory authorities
also seek certain clarifications and share their findings in the ordinary course of business. We have responded to
observations made by such authorities and addressed them; however, we cannot assure you that these authorities
will not find any deficiencies in future inspections, or otherwise/ the authorities will not make similar or other
observations in the future. An inspection of our Company by RBI was conducted based on the financials of the
Company as on March 31, 2022 and RBI issued the inspection report (“Inspection Report”). Under the Inspection
Report, the RBI has, inter -alia, made certain observations regarding the business and operations of our Company
in relation to violation of the instructions contained in Para 1 of Chapter IV of Master Direction - Monitoring of
frauds in NBFCS Directions, 2016 dated September 29, 2016, violation of the instructions contained in Para 4.4
of Master Direction Information Technology Framework for the NBFC Sector dated June 08. 2017, violation of
instructions contained in Para 100 of the Master Direction Non-Banking Financial Company – Systemically
Important Non-Deposit taking Company and Deposit taking Company (Reserve Bank) Directions, 2016 dated
September 01,2016 and violation of Annexure IV of Master Direction Non-Banking Financial Company –
Systemically lmportant Non-Deposit taking Company and Deposit taking Company (Reserve Bank) Directions,
2016 dated September 01, 2016. Our Company vide its letter dated November 9, 2022 responded to the Inspection
Report and provided further compliance along with documentary evidence. Further, our Company has received
letter from RBI dated December 27, 2022 seeking further clarifications on inspection comments. Accordingly,
our Company has submitted its reply vide letter dated February 17, 2023.

Further to this, our Company received a communication from the RBI on March 17, 2023, requesting additional
details on inspection findings. Following this, a show cause notice was issued by the RBI on April 13, 2023, under
Sections 45JA, 45L, 45M, 58-B(5)(aa), and 58G of the Reserve Bank of India Act, 1934. In response, our
Company replied to the show cause notice and the RBI’s March 17, 2023 letter on April 28, 2023, and May 08,
2023, respectively. Subsequently, we received further letters from the RBI on May 30, 2023, July 12, 2023, August
11, 2023, October 09, 2023, November 16, 2023, January 15, 2024, and April 05, 2024 each time seeking
additional clarifications on inspection findings. Our firm responded to each of these letters on July 10, 2023,

20
August 04, 2023, September 05, 2023, November 06, 2023, December 14, 2023, March 11, 2024 and May 20,
2024 respectively. Furthermore, RBI imposed penalty of ₹ 13.38 lakh vide order dated October 25, 2023, and
Company has paid the penalty amount on November 13, 2023.

Recently, our company received another letter from the RBI on June 27, 2024, seeking further clarifications on
inspection comments, to which we are currently formulating a response.

While our Company strives to address all the concerns raised by RBI in relation to its inspection and observations
made thereunder, any adverse action taken by RBI with regard to such inspections could adversely affect our
business and operations. There can be no assurance that in the future the RBI will not pass any orders levying
penalty, on our Company, on the basis of its periodical inspection of our Company, which may in turn adversely
affect our reputation, business, operations, and profitability. In the event we are unable to resolve such deficiencies
or irregularity or noncompliance to the satisfaction of the relevant authority, we may be restricted in our ability to
conduct our business as we currently do and may have an impact on our financial including our capital adequacy
ratio.

2. We have received a letter dated February 10, 2014 from the RBI (“RBI Letter”) inter-alia alleging non-
compliance with RBI circular DNBS (T) No. 983/02.03.057/2013-14 dated October 29, 2008 (“RBI
Circular”). Further, we have also received a letter dated July 29, 2016 from the RBI, pursuant to an
inspection under Section 12(1) of the FEMA, relating to our money changing business (“RBI Inspection
Letter”). Any adverse order by RBI could adversely affect our ability to conduct business, which would in
turn result in material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

Our Company has received the RBI Inspection Letter wherein the RBI has observed certain irregularities and
deficiencies in relation to our money changing business, such as unavailability of the declaration by the Directors
on ‘fit and proper criteria’ as on March 31, 2016; failure to submit the annual statement showing foreign currency
as written-off as on March 31, 2016; non-conformity of application cum declaration format used for sale for
foreign exchange with instructions issued by the RBI; unavailability of statutory auditor’s certificate on
compliance with KYC/AML/CFT guidelines; and non-submission of audited balance sheet and NOF certificate
as on March 31, 2016. Consequently, our Company has been directed by the RBI to take necessary action and
rectification, and to submit a compliance report within a period of 30 days from the date of receipt of the RBI
Inspection Letter.

Our Company has responded to the RBI vide a letter dated August 12, 2016, wherein our Company has
categorically addressed the concerns raised by the RBI. Subsequently, the RBI, vide letters dated September 20,
2016 and November 30, 2016 directed our Company to rectify deficiencies detected during the RBI inspection.
Our Company vide its letter dated December 15, 2016 confirmed compliance with the instructions regarding the
application cum declaration form and submitted date wise data of forex purchased and sold by its authorised
branches for period from November 8, 2016 to November 30, 2016. Any adverse action taken by RBI with regard
to such inspections could adversely affect our business and operations.

3. We are subject to inspections by CDSL in our capacity as a depository participant and any adverse action
taken by CDSL could affect our business and operations.

As a depository participant, we are subject to periodic inspection by CDSL. For instance, CDSL conducted an
inspection for the period between July 1, 2018 to September 30, 2019 and vide its inspection report dated July 23,
2019 observed certain discrepancies with respect to CKYC records and activation status of our Company’s login
credentials with FIU India and directed our Company to rectify the aforesaid discrepancies. In this regard, our
Company vide its letter dated August 22, 2019 submitted a compliance report to CDSL. Further our Company has
received inspection report dated June 25, 2021 (“Inspection Report”), pursuant to the inspection conducted by
CDSL for the period July 1, 2019 to April 30, 2021. CSDL vide its Inspection Report observed certain
discrepancies with respect to KYC records, annexure not obtained for payment details of market transfers,
supporting documents and affidavit not obtained for account transmission in case of holder name mismatch,
investor grievance email ID not designated on website and action not taken for hold and under process cases of
CKYC registration. In this regard, our Company vide its letter dated August 14, 2021 submitted a compliance
report dated August 11, 2021 to CDSL

Further, our Company has received an inspection report dated June 14, 2022 (“Inspection Report”), pursuant to
the inspection conducted by CDSL for the period May 1, 2021 to April 30, 2022. CSDL vide its Inspection Report
observed certain discrepancies with respect to DP does not have an official who has undergone CDSL 4 days

21
training programme and DP has not implemented provision for generating surveillance alerts in their back office.
Our Company has submitted its response to the Inspection Report vide its letter dated July 11, 2022.

Further, our Company has received an inspection report dated May 30, 2023 (“Inspection Report”), pursuant to
the inspection conducted by CDSL for the period May 1, 2022 to April 30, 2023. Our Company has submitted its
response to the Inspection Report vide its letter dated June 20, 2023. While our Company strives to address all the
concerns raised by CDSL, there can be no guarantee that CDSL shall be satisfied with our Company’s responses
and that the CDSL shall not take any adverse action pursuant to such inspections. Any such actions by CDSL
could adversely affect our business and operations.

4. We are subject to restrictive covenants in certain short-term and long-term debt facilities provided to us by
our lenders.

We have entered into agreements for availing financial facilities from various lenders. Certain covenants in these
agreements require us to obtain approval / permission from our lenders in certain conditions. These conditions
include, amongst others, implementation of any scheme of expansion / diversification / renovation / capital
expenditure, formulation of any scheme of amalgamation or reconstruction, undertaking of guarantee obligation,
any change in our capital structure. In the event of default or the breach of certain covenants, our lenders have the
option to make the entire outstanding amount payable immediately. There can be no assurance that we will be
able to comply with these financial or other covenants or that we will be able to obtain consents necessary to take
the actions that we believe are required to operate and grow our business.

For further details in this regard, including approvals obtained from our lenders for this Issue, please refer chapter
“Financial Indebtedness” on page 145.

5. Our ability to access capital also depends on our credit ratings. Any downgrade in our credit ratings would
increase borrowing costs and constrain our access to capital and lending markets and, thus, would
negatively affect our net interest margin and our business.

The NCDs proposed to be issued under this Issue have been rated “IND A-/Stable”, by India Ratings & Research
Private Limited (“IRRPL”) for an amount up to ₹ 20,000 lakhs vide its letter dated June 26, 2024, and rating
rationale/press release dated June 26, 2024. Ratings reflect a rating agency’s opinion of our financial strength,
operating performance, strategic position, and ability to meet our obligations. Any, downgrade of our credit ratings
would increase borrowing costs and constrain our access to debt and bank lending markets and, thus, would
adversely affect our business. In addition, downgrading of our credit ratings could increase the possibility of
additional terms and conditions being added to any new or replacement financing arrangements. For details
regarding ratings received by our Company, please refer to “Our Business - Our Borrowings and Credit Ratings”
on page 122.

6. Our Company, two of our Promoter Directors and one of our Group Companies are subject to certain legal
proceedings and any adverse decision in such proceedings may have a material adverse effect on our
business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our Company, two of our Promoter Directors and one of our Group Companies are subject to certain legal
proceedings including civil suits, consumer litigations, tax litigations, trademark infringement suits etc. We incur
substantial cost in defending these proceedings before a court of law. Moreover, we are unable to assure you that
our Company, our Promoter Directors, or our Group Company shall be successful in any or all of these actions.
In the event we or our Promoter Directors suffer any adverse order, it may have an adverse impact on our
reputation, business and results of operations. We cannot assure you that an adverse order by any statutory or
governmental authority will not have a negative impact on our profit and financial condition. For further details
of the legal proceedings that we are subject to, please refer to the chapter titled “Outstanding Litigations”
beginning on page 269.

7. Most of the supporting documents in connection with the biographies of the directors included in the
section “Our Management” of this Prospectus are unavailable.

Certain documents supporting the information included in this Prospectus with respect to previous work
experience of the directors, disclosed in the sections titled “Our Management” on page 129 may not be available.
Accordingly, reliance has been placed on declarations and undertakings furnished by such director to us and the
Lead Manager to disclose details of their previous work experience in this Prospectus. We and the Lead Manager

22
have been unable to independently verify these details prior to inclusion in this Prospectus. Further, there can be
no assurances that our Director will be able to trace the relevant documents pertaining to their previous work
experience in future, or at all.

8. Some of our Group Companies are enabled by their respective memorandums of association to undertake
activities similar to the activities conducted by our Company which may be potential source of conflict of
interest for us and which may have an adverse effect on our operations.

Our Promoter Directors are the sole shareholders and directors on the board of our Group Company, Kosamattam
Nidhi Limited (“KNL”), which was incorporated on May 21, 2018 pursuant to a certificate of incorporation issued
by the RoC and can be expected to devote some of their time and resources to these Group Companies. There can
be no assurance that our Promoter Directors’ role in KNL will not present any conflicts of interest or potential
conflicts of interest.

Further, KNL has been registered as a ‘nidhi company’ in accordance with Section 406 of the Companies Act,
2013 and shall undertake the business of lending to its members. There are no non-compete
agreements/arrangements between our Company and KNL. The memorandum of association of KNL entitles it
to undertake and carry out businesses activities that are similar or related to our business. There can be no
assurance that KNL will not provide comparable services, expand their presence or acquire interests in competing
ventures in the locations in which we operate. As a result, a conflict of interest may occur between our business
and the business of KNL, which could have an adverse effect on our operations.

However, due to adverse market conditions, the Company has not been effectively operating for the past 2 years
and hence the Company in compliance with the requirements of the Companies Act, 2013 and other applicable
statutes, filed an application with the Registar of Companies, Kerala on April 08 2024, for removal of the name
of the Company from the Register of Companies. The application was taken on record and the Company is under
the process of stiking off.

9. Our Company was unable to trace certain secretarial records, including records pertaining to the allotment
of Equity Shares acquired by our past shareholders prior to August 2004.

We have been unable to locate the copies of certain of our secretarial records, i.e. prescribed forms filed by us
with the Registrar of Companies, including, among others, in respect of the allotment of Equity Shares from
incorporation until August 2004. While we believe that these forms were duly filed on a timely basis, we have not
been able to obtain copies of these documents, including from the Registrar of Companies. We cannot assure you
that we will not be subject to any adverse action by a competent regulatory authority in this regard.

10. A major part of our branch network is concentrated in southern India and we derive majority of our
revenue from southern India. Any breakdown of services in these areas could have a material and adverse
effect on our results of operations and financial conditions.

We derive majority of our revenue from our 968 branches situated in southern India out of 987 of our total
branches as on June 30, 2024. As a result, we are exposed to risks including any change in policies relating to
these states, any localised social unrest, any natural disaster and any event or development which could make
business in such states less economically beneficial. Any such risk, if materialises, could have a material adverse
effect on the business, financial position and results of operations of our Company. For further details of our
branch network within India, please refer to the chapter titled “Our Business” on page 107.

11. Our business is capital intensive and any disruption or restrictions in raising financial resources could
have a material adverse effect on our liquidity and financial condition.

Our liquidity and ongoing profitability is largely dependent upon our timely access to and the costs associated in
raising resources. Our funding requirements historically have been met from a combination of borrowings such
as working capital limits from banks and issuance of secured and unsecured redeemable non-convertible
debentures on private placement basis and public issues of secured and unsecured redeemable non-convertible
debentures. Thus, our business depends and will continue to depend on our ability to access diversified low-cost
funding sources.

Our ability to raise funds on acceptable terms and at competitive rates continues to depend on various factors
including our credit ratings, the regulatory environment and policy initiatives in India, developments in the

23
international markets affecting the Indian economy, investors' and/or lenders' perception of demand for debt and
equity securities of NBFCs, and our current and future results of operations and financial condition.

The crisis in the global credit market that began in mid-2007 destabilised the then prevailing lending model by
banks and financial institutions. The capital and lending markets were highly volatile and access to liquidity had
been significantly reduced. In addition, it became more difficult to renew loans and facilities as many potential
lenders and counterparties also faced liquidity and capital concerns as a result of the stress in the financial markets.
If any event of similar nature and magnitude occurs again in the future, it may result in increased borrowing costs
and difficulty in accessing debt in a cost-effective manner. Moreover, we are a NBFC-ND-SI, and do not have
access to public deposits.

The RBI has issued guidelines vide notification no. DBOD.BP.BC.No. 106/21.04.172/2011-12 on May 18, 2012
whereby it has instructed banks to (i) reduce their regulatory exposure on a single NBFC having gold loans to the
extent of 50.00% or more of its financial assets from 10.00% to 7.50% of their capital funds; and (ii) have an
internal sub-limit as decided by the boards of the respective banks on their aggregate exposure to all such NBFCs
having gold loans to the extent of 50% or more of their financial assets, taken together, which sub-limit should be
within the internal limits fixed by banks for their aggregate exposure to all NBFCs taken together.

The RBI vide its circular RBI/2014-15/475 DNBS (PD) CC No.021/03.10.001/2014-15 dated February 20, 2015
issued certain guidelines with respect to raising money through private placement by NBFCs in the form of non-
convertible debentures. These guidelines include restrictions on the minimum subscription amount for a single
investor at ₹20,000, the issuance of private placement of NCDs shall be in two separate categories, those with a
maximum subscription of less than ₹1 crore and those with a minimum subscription of ₹1 crore and above, the
restriction of number of investors in an issue to 200 investors for a maximum subscription of less than ₹1 crore
which shall be fully secured, there is no limit on the number of subscribers in respect of issuances with a minimum
subscription of ₹1 crore and above while the option to create security in favour of subscribers will be with the
issuers and such unsecured debentures shall not be treated as public deposits, restriction on NBFCs for issuing
debentures only for deployment of funds on its own balance sheet and not to facilitate resource requests of group
entities/parent company/associates, prohibition on providing loan against its own debentures, etc. This has resulted
in limiting our Company’s ability to raise fresh debentures on private placement basis.

A significant portion of our debt matures each year. Out of the total amount of our outstanding NCDs,
₹2,20,372.82 lakhs, issued by our Company as of March 31, 2024, NCDs amounting to ₹ 47,570.17 Lakhs will
mature on or before March 31, 2025. In order to retire these instruments, we either will need to refinance this debt,
which could be difficult in the event of volatility in the credit markets or raise equity capital or generate sufficient
cash to retire the debt.

Changes in economic and financial conditions or continuing lack of liquidity in the market could make it difficult
for us to access funds at competitive rates. As a NBFC, we also face certain restrictions on our ability to raise
money from international markets, which may further constrain our ability to raise funds at attractive rates. Any
disruption in our primary funding sources at competitive costs would have a material adverse effect on our
liquidity and financial condition.

12. Our financial performance is primarily dependent on interest rate risk. If we are unable to manage interest
rate risk in the future it could have an adverse effect on our net interest margin, thereby adversely affecting
business and financial condition of our company.

Our results of operations are substantially dependent upon the level of our Net Interest Margins. Income from
operations is the largest component of our total income, and constituted 99.42%, 99.49% and 99.44% for the
Financial Years ended March 31, 2024, March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022, respectively. Interest rates are
sensitive to many factors beyond our control, including the RBI’s monetary policies, domestic and international
economic and political conditions, and other factors.

Over the last several years, the Government of India has substantially deregulated the financial sector. As a result,
interest rates are now primarily determined by the market, which has increased the interest rate risk exposure of
all banks and financial intermediaries in India, including us.

Our policy is to attempt to balance the proportion of our interest earning assets, which bear fixed interest rates,
with interest bearing liabilities. A significant portion of our liabilities, such as our NCDs carry fixed rates of
interest. Moreover, we do not hedge our exposure to interest rate changes. We cannot assure you that we can

24
adequately manage our interest rate risk in the future or can effectively balance the proportion of our fixed rate
loan assets and liabilities. Further, changes in interest rates could affect the interest rates charged on interest
earning assets and the interest rates paid on interest bearing liabilities in different ways. Thus, our results of
operations could be affected by changes in interest rates and the timing of any re-pricing of our liabilities compared
with the re-pricing of our assets.

In a rising interest rate environment, if the yield on our interest earning assets does not increase at the same time
or to the same extent as our cost of funds, or, in a declining interest rate environment, if our cost of funds does
not decline at the same time or to the same extent as the yield on our interest earning assets, our net interest income
and net interest margin would be adversely affected.

13. We have had negative net cash flows from our operating, investing and financing activities in the recent
fiscal years. Any negative cash flows in the future may adversely affect our results of operations and
financial condition.

We have had negative net cash flows from our operating, investing and financing activities in the last three fiscal
years ended March 31, 2024, March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022, the details of which are summarised below:
(in ₹ lakhs)
Particulars Fiscal 2024 Fiscal 2023 Fiscal 2022
Net cash generated from/ (used in) (34,053.04) (73,285.07) (37,899.93)
operating activities
Net cash generated from/ (used in) investing (6,226.20) (6,079.51) (8,900.58)
activities
Net cash generated from/ (used in) 39,245.17 75,834.91 37,743.62
financing activities

Any negative cash flows in the future may adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. For
further details, please see the sections titled “Financial Statements” on page 143.

14. We face increasing competition in our business which may result in declining interest margins. If we are
unable to compete successfully, our market share may also decline.

Our principal business is providing Gold Loan to customers in India secured by gold jewellery. Historically, the
Gold Loan industry in India has been largely unorganised and dominated by local jewellery pawn shops and
money lenders, with little involvement from public sector or private sector banks. Gold Loan financing was
availed predominantly by lower income group customers with limited or no access to other forms of credit,
however, such income group has gained increased access to capital through organised and unorganised money
lenders, which has increased our exposure to competition. The demand for Gold Loans has also increased due to
relatively lower and affordable interest rates, increased need for urgent borrowing or bridge financing
requirements, the need for liquidity for assets held in gold and increased awareness and acceptance of Gold Loan
financing.

All of these factors have resulted in increased competition from other lenders in the Gold Loan industry, including
commercial banks and other NBFCs, who also have access to funding from customers’ savings and current
deposits. We are reliant on higher cost loans and debentures for our funding requirements, which may reduce our
margins compared to competitors. Our ability to compete effectively will depend, to some extent, on our ability
to raise low cost funding in the future. If we are unable to compete effectively with other participants in the Gold
Loan industry, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected. Furthermore,
as a result of increased competition in the Gold Loan industry, Gold Loans are becoming increasingly
standardised. Variable interest rates, variable payment terms and waiver of processing fees are also becoming
increasingly common.

In our microfinance business, we face competition from other NBFCs, microfinance companies as well as both
commercial and small finance banks. In addition, the RBI has set out guidelines applicable to microfinance
institutions which restrict the number of microfinance institutions that can extend loans to the same borrower and
also limit the maximum amount of loan that can be extended. The presence of microfinance institutions in India
is not uniform and certain regions have a concentration of a large number of microfinance institutions while there
are regions which have very few and even no microfinance institution presence. In any particular region, the level
of competition depends on the number of microfinance institutions that operate in such area. In addition, our target
customers also borrow from money lenders and non-institutional lenders which may lend at higher rates of interest.

25
Our ability to compete effectively will depend, to an extent, on our ability to raise low-cost funding in the future
as well as our ability to maintain or decrease our operating expenses by increasing operational efficiencies and
managing credit costs. As a result of increased competition in the various sectors we operate in, products in our
industry have become increasingly standardised and variable interest rate and payment terms and lower processing
fees are becoming increasingly common across our products. There can be no assurance that we will be able to
effectively address these or other finance industry trends or compete effectively with new and existing commercial
banks, NBFCs, payment banks, other small finance banks and other financial intermediaries that operate across
our various financing products.

In addition, the government has issued schemes such as Pradhan Mantri Jan-Dhan Yojana to ensure access to
financial services in an affordable manner. Further, public sector banks as well as existing private sector banks,
have an extensive customer and depositor base, larger branch networks, and in case of public sector banks,
Government support for capital augmentation, due to which they may enjoy corresponding economies of scale
and greater access to low-cost capital, and accordingly, we may not be able to compete with them. An inability to
effectively address such competition may adversely affect our market share, business prospects, results of
operations and financial condition.

15. Volatility in the market price of gold may adversely affect our financial condition, cash flows and results
of operations.

We extend loans secured mostly by household gold jewellery. A sustained decrease in the market price of gold
could cause a corresponding decrease in new Gold Loans in our loan portfolio and, as a result, our interest income.
In addition, customers may not repay their loans and the gold jewellery securing the loans may have decreased
significantly in value, resulting in losses which we may not be able to support. The impact on our financial position
and results of operations of a hypothetical decrease in gold values cannot be reasonably estimated because the
market and competitive response to changes in gold values is not pre-determinable.

16. We may not be able to realise the full value of our pledged gold, which exposes us to potential loss.

We may not be able to realise the full value of our pledged gold, due to, among other things, defects in the quality
of gold or wastage that may occur when melting gold jewellery into gold bars. We have in place an extensive
internal policy on determining the quality of gold prior to disbursement of the Gold Loan. However, we cannot
assure you that the methods followed by us are fool proof and the impurity levels in the gold can be accurately
assessed.

In the case of a default, we may auction the pledged gold in accordance with our auction policy. We cannot assure
you that we will be able to auction such pledged gold jewellery at prices sufficient to cover the amounts under
default. Moreover, there may be delays associated with the auction process or other processes undertaken by us
to recover the amount due to us. Any such failure to recover the expected value of pledged gold could expose us
to a potential loss and which could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

17. We may not be able to successfully sustain our growth strategy. Inability to effectively manage our growth
and related issues could materially and adversely affect our business and impact our future financial
performance.

Our income from operations increased from ₹ 62,464.65 lakhs in the Financial Year ended March 31, 2022 to ₹
85,783.84 lakhs in the Financial Year ended March 31, 2024, thereby achieving compounded annual growth rate
(“CAGR”) of 11.15 %. In this same period, the loan book increased from ₹ 4,04,341.25 lakhs for the Financial
Year ended March 31, 2022 to ₹ 5,38,260.10 lakhs for the Financial Year ended March 31, 2024 at a CAGR of
10.01 %.

Our growth strategy includes growing our loan book, expanding network of branches and expanding the range of
products and services. We cannot assure you that we will be able to execute our growth strategy successfully or
continue to achieve or grow at the levels of revenue earned in recent years, or that we will be able to expand
further our loan book. Furthermore, there may not be sufficient demand for our services or they may not generate
sufficient revenues relative to the costs associated with offering such services. Even if we were able to introduce
new services successfully, there can be no assurance that we will be able to achieve our intended return on such
investments.

26
Further, principal component of our strategy is to continue to grow by expanding the size and geographical scope
of our businesses. This growth strategy will place significant demands on our management, financial and other
resources. It will require us to continuously develop and improve our operational, financial and internal controls.
It also includes undertaking permission from various authorities, including RBI and various regulatory
compliances. Continuous expansion increases the challenges involved in financial management, recruitment,
training and retaining high quality human resources, preserving our culture, values and entrepreneurial
environment, and developing and improving our internal administrative infrastructure.

18. If we are not able to control the level of non-performing assets in our portfolio, the overall quality of our
loan portfolio may deteriorate and our results of operations may be adversely affected.

We may not be successful in our efforts to improve collections and/or enforce the security interest on the gold
collateral on existing as well as future non-performing assets. Moreover, as our loan portfolio increases, we may
experience greater defaults in principal and/or interest repayments. Thus, if we are not able to control our level of
non-performing assets, the overall quality of our loan portfolio may deteriorate and our results of operations may
be adversely affected. Our gross NPAs for the financial years ended March 31, 2024, March 31, 2023 and March
31, 2022 were ₹ 7,761.03 , ₹ 7,754.86 lakhs and ₹ 5,742.29 lakhs, respectively.

The RBI Master Directions prescribe the provisioning required in respect of our outstanding loan portfolio. Should
the overall credit quality of our loan portfolio deteriorate, the current level of our provisions may not be adequate
to cover further increases in the amount of our non-performing assets. Furthermore, although we believe that our
total provision will be adequate to cover all known losses in our asset portfolio, our current provisions may not
be adequate when compared to the loan portfolios of other financial institutions. Moreover, there also can be no
assurance that there will be no further deterioration in our provisioning coverage as a percentage of gross non-
performing assets or otherwise, or that the percentage of non-performing assets that we will be able to recover
will be similar to our past experience of recoveries of non-performing assets. In the event of any further increase
in our non-performing asset portfolio, there could be an even greater, adverse impact on our results of operations.

19. Our ability to lend against the collateral of gold jewellery has been restricted on account of guidelines
issued by RBI, which may have a negative impact on our business and results of operation.

RBI vide the Master Directions has stipulated all NBFCs to maintain a loan to value (LTV) ratio not exceeding
75% for loans granted against the collateral of gold jewellery and further prohibits lending against bullion/primary
gold and gold coins. This notification will limit our ability to provide loan on the collateral of gold jewellery and
thereby putting us at a disadvantage vis-à-vis unregulated money lenders offering similar products. Further, RBI
in the Master Directions, has mandated NBFCs primarily engaged in lending against gold jewellery (such loans
comprising 50% or more of their financial assets) to maintain a minimum Tier 1 capital of 12%. Such restrictions
imposed by RBI may erode our margins, impact our growth and business prospects.

RBI in the Master Directions further tightened the norms for lending against the security of gold ornaments by
pegging the maximum lendable value (LTV) to 30 day moving average closing price of 22 carat gold quoted by
India Bullion and Jewellers Association Limited (formerly known as Bombay Bullion Association Limited). Any
such future restrictions by RBI could have a negative impact on our business and results of operation.

20. We are subject to certain restrictive covenants in our loan documents, which may restrict our operations
and ability to grow and may adversely affect our business.

There are restrictive covenants in the agreements we have entered into with our lender. These restrictive covenants
require us to seek the prior permission of these banks/financial institutions for various activities, including,
amongst others, to declare dividend, for any change in the management/constitution, takeovers/mergers etc. or
any expansion, new project/investment/acquiring assets under lease/enter into borrowing arrangements, to
undertake any new project, or diversification, modernisation, amend or modify its Memorandum and Articles of
Association/Bye Laws/Trust Deeds etc. For details of these restrictive covenants, see the chapter titled “Financial
Indebtedness” beginning on page 145.

21. We are subjected to supervision and regulation by the RBI as a NBFCs- Middle Layer, and changes in
RBI’s regulations governing us could adversely affect our business.

We are subject to the RBI’s guidelines on financial regulation of NBFCs, including capital adequacy, exposure
and other prudential norms. The RBI also regulates the credit flow by banks to NBFCs and provides guidelines to

27
commercial banks with respect to their investment and credit exposure norms for lending to NBFCs. The RBI’s
regulations of NBFCs could change in the future which may require us to restructure our activities, incur additional
cost or could otherwise adversely affect our business and our financial performance. Through the Master
Directions, RBI has amended the regulatory framework governing NBFCs to address concerns pertaining to risks,
regulatory gaps and arbitrage arising from differential regulations and aims to harmonise and simplify regulations
to facilitate a smoother compliance culture among NBFCs.

As a NBFCs – Middle Layer, our Company is required to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of at least 15.00% of
our aggregate risk-weighted assets of our balance sheet (on-balance sheet and of risk adjusted value of off -balance
sheet items) on an ongoing basis. Our Company’s capital adequacy ratio was 18.42% as of March 31, 2024. If we
continue to grow our Total Credit Exposure and asset base, we will be required to raise additional capital in order
to continue to meet applicable capital adequacy ratios with respect to our business. There can be no assurance that
we will be able to raise adequate additional capital in the future on terms favourable to us or at all, which could
result in non-compliance with applicable capital adequacy ratios and may adversely affect the growth of our
business. Further, our Tier I capital comprising of 16.16% as of March 31, 2024. If we continue to grow our loan
portfolio and asset base, we will be required to raise additional Tier I and Tier II capital in order to continue to
meet applicable capital adequacy ratios and Tier I capital requirements with respect to our business of Gold Loans.
There can be no assurance that we will be able to maintain adequate capital adequacy ratio or Tier I capital by
raising additional capital in the future on terms favourable to us, or at all. Failure to maintain adequate capital
adequacy ratio or Tier I capital may adversely affect the growth of our business.

Moreover, under the Master Directions – Reserve Bank of India (Non-Banking Financial Company – Scale Based
Regulation) Directions, 2023, the threshold for defining the NBFCs based on their size, activity and perceived
riskiness. NBFCs-Middle Layer will be those NBFCs which are above asset size of ₹ 100,000 lakhs as per the last
audited balance sheet. We cannot assure you that the Master Directions and its applicability to us will not have a
material and adverse effect on our future financial conditions and results of operations.

Even though the RBI, has not provided for any restriction on interest rates that can be charged by non-deposit
taking NBFCs, there can be no assurance that the RBI and/or the Government will not implement regulations or
policies, including policies or regulations or legal interpretations of existing regulations, relating to or affecting
interest rates, taxation, inflation or exchange controls, or otherwise take action, that could have an adverse effect
on non-deposit taking NBFCs. In addition, there can be no assurance that any changes in the laws and regulations
relative to the Indian financial services industry will not adversely impact our business.

22. We may be subject to regulations in respect of provisioning for non-performing assets. If such provisions
are not sufficient to provide adequate cover for loan losses that may occur, this could have an adverse
effect on our financial condition, liquidity and results of operations.

RBI guidelines prescribe the provisioning required in respect of our outstanding loan portfolio. These provisioning
requirements may require us to reserve lower amounts than the provisioning requirements applicable to financial
institutions and banks in other countries. The provisioning requirements may also require the exercise of
subjective judgments of management. The RBI vide the Master Directions provides for the regulatory framework
governing NBFCs pertaining to provision for standard assets.

There are multiple factors that affect the level of NPAs in our Company. Prominent among them are fall in value
of gold, increase in the LTV ratio for gold loan etc.

The level of our provisions may not be adequate to cover further increases in the amount of our nonperforming
assets or a decrease in the value of the underlying gold collateral. If such provisions are not sufficient to provide
adequate cover for loan losses that may occur, or if we are required to increase our provisions, this could have an
adverse effect on our financial condition, liquidity and results of operations and may require us to raise additional
capital.

23. Microfinance loans are unsecured and are susceptible to certain operational and credit risks which may
result in increased levels of NPAs.

Our microfinance customers typically belong to the economically weaker sections and are diverse in nature, which
include customers involved in income generating business activities, with limited sources of income, savings and
credit records, and are therefore unable to provide us with any collateral or security for their loans. Such customers
are at times unable to or may not provide us with accurate information about themselves which is required by us

28
in connection with loans. Further, in case of emergencies like death of the borrower or the borrower’s nominee,
our microfinance borrowers are given a holiday period from payment of instalment on the outstanding borrowings
which is later settled against payment received from the insurance companies.

In our microfinance business, we rely on non-traditional guarantee mechanisms rather than any tangible assets as
security collateral. Our microfinance business involves a joint liability mechanism whereby borrowers form a
joint liability group and provide guarantees for loans obtained by each member of such group. There can however
be no assurance that such joint liability arrangements will ensure repayment by the other members of the joint
liability group in the event of default by any one of them. Such joint liability arrangements are likely to fail if
there is no meaningful personal relationship or bond among members of such group, if inadequate risk
management procedures have been employed to verify the group members and their ability to repay such loans,
or as a result of adverse external factors such as natural calamities and forced migration.

As a result, our micro finance customers potentially present a higher risk of loss in case of a credit default
compared to that of customers in other asset-backed financing products. In addition, repayment of microfinance
loans are susceptible to various political and social risks, including any adverse publicity relating to the
microfinance sector accessing capital markets, public criticism of the microfinance sector, the introduction of a
stringent regulatory regime, and/or religious beliefs relating to loans and interest payments, which adversely affect
repayment by our customers and may have a material and adverse effect on our business prospects and future
financial performance.

There can be no assurance that we will be able to maintain our current levels of NPAs. In addition, it is difficult
to accurately predict credit losses, and there can be no assurance that our monitoring and risk management
procedures will succeed in effectively predicting such losses or that our loan loss reserves will be sufficient to
cover any such actual losses. As a result of the uncertain financial and social circumstances of our microfinance
customers and the higher risks associated with lending to such customers, we may experience increased levels of
NPAs and we may be required to make related provisions and write-offs that could have a material and adverse
effect on our business prospects and financial performance.

24. Our microfinance business involves transactions with relatively high-risk borrowers that typically do not
have access to formal banking channels, and high levels of customer defaults could adversely affect our
business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our microfinance business involves lending money to smaller, relatively low-income entrepreneurs and
individuals who have limited access or no access to formal banking channels, and therefore may not have any
credit history and as a result we are more vulnerable to customer default risks including default or delay in
repayment of principal or interest on our loans.

Some of our customers, especially the first-time borrowers, may not have any documented credit history, may
have limited formal education, and are able to furnish very limited information for us to be able to assess their
creditworthiness accurately. Consequently, we may not have past data on the customer’s borrowing behaviour. In
addition, we may not receive updated information regarding any change in the financial condition of our customers
or may receive inaccurate or incomplete information as a result of any fraudulent misrepresentation on the part of
our customers. It is therefore difficult to carry out credit risk analysis on our clients. Although we believe that our
risk management controls are stringently applied and are sufficient, there can be no assurance that they will
continue to be sufficient or that additional risk management strategies for our customers will not be required.

Further, our customers may default on their obligations as a result of various factors including bankruptcy, lack
of liquidity and / or failure of the business or commercial venture in relation to which such borrowings were
sanctioned. Although our microfinance business operates through a system of joint liability, we may still be
exposed to defaults in payment, which we may not be able to recover in full. If our borrowers fail to repay loans
in a timely manner or at all, our financial condition and results of operations will be adversely impacted.

25. Our ability to borrow from various banks may be restricted on account of guidelines issued by the RBI,
imposing restrictions on banks in relation to their exposure to NBFCs. Any limitation on our ability to
borrow from such banks may increase our cost of borrowing, which could adversely impact our growth,
business and financial condition.

Under RBI Master Circular DBR.BP.BC.No.5/21.04.172/2015-16 on bank finance to NBFCs issued on July 1,
2015, the exposure (both lending and investment, including off balance sheet exposures) of a bank to a single

29
NBFC engaged in lending against collateral of gold jewellery (i.e. such loans comprising 50% or more of its
financial assets) should not exceed 7.5%, of its capital funds. Banks may, however, assume exposures on a single
NBFC up to 12.5%, of their capital funds, provided the exposure in excess of 7.5% is on account of funds on-lent
by the NBFC to the infrastructure sector. Further, banks may also consider fixing internal limits for their aggregate
exposure to all NBFCs put together and should include internal sub-limit to all NBFCs providing Gold Loans (i.e.
such loans comprising 50% or more of their financial assets), including us. This limits the exposure that banks
may have on NBFCs such as us, which may restrict our ability to borrow from such banks and may increase our
cost of borrowing, which could adversely impact our growth, business and financial condition.

26. Our Gold Loans are due within 12 months of disbursement, and a failure to disburse new loans may result
in a reduction of our loan portfolio and a corresponding decrease in our interest income.

The Gold Loans we offer are due within a period of upto 12 months of disbursement. The relatively short-term
nature of our loans means that we are not assured of long-term interest income streams compared to businesses
that offer loans with longer terms. In addition, our existing customers may not obtain new loans from us upon
maturity of their existing loans, particularly if competition increases. The short-term nature of our loan products
and the potential instability of our interest income could materially and adversely affect our results of operations
and financial position.

27. Inaccurate appraisal of gold by our personnel may adversely affect our gold loan business and financial
condition.

The accurate appraisal of pledged gold is a significant factor in the successful operation of our business and such
appraisal requires a skilled and reliable workforce. Inaccurate appraisal of gold by our workforce may result in
gold being overvalued and pledged for a loan that is higher in value than the gold’s actual value, which could
adversely affect our reputation and business. Further, we are subject to the risk that our gold appraisers may
engage in fraud regarding their estimation of the value of pledged gold. Any such inaccuracies or fraud in relation
to our appraisal of gold may adversely affect our reputation, business and financial condition.

28. We are subject to regulations in relation to minimum capital adequacy requirements and our inability to
maintain our capital adequacy ratio could adversely affect our business.

The RBI Master Directions currently require NBFCs to comply with a capital to risk (weighted) assets ratio
(“CRAR”), consisting of Tier I and Tier II capital. Under these requirements, Tier I and Tier II capital should not
be less than 15% of the sum of the NBFC’s risk-weighted assets on-balance sheet and of risk adjusted value of
off-balance sheet items, as applicable. In addition, our Tier I capital, at any point in time, shall not be less than
10%. For details, see “Key Regulations and Policies” on page 306.

As of March 31, 2024, our CRAR was 18.42 %, with Tier I capital comprising 16.16 % and Tier II capital
comprising of 2.26 %. As we continue to grow our loan portfolio and asset base, we will be required to raise
additional Tier I and Tier II capital in order to remain in compliance with the applicable CRARs. Further, the RBI
may increase its minimum CRAR threshold, which may require us to raise additional capital. We cannot assure
you that we will be able to raise adequate capital in the future on terms favourable to us, or at all, which may
adversely affect the growth of our business. Further, the RBI may also in the future require compliance with other
prudential norms and standards, which may require us to alter our business and accounting practices or take other
actions that could adversely affect our business and operating results.

29. Our branches are vulnerable to theft and burglary. While we are insured against the risk of burglary
arising from our business, such insurance may not be sufficient to fully cover the losses we suffer and this
may result in adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

Storage of pledged gold jewellery as part of our business entails the risk of theft/burglary and resulting loss to our
reputation and business. The short tenure of the loans advanced by us and our practice of processing loan
repayments within short timelines require us to store pledged gold on our premises at all points in time. With
regard to cases of theft/burglaries, we may not be able to recover the entire amount of the loss suffered and may
receive only a partial payment of the insurance claim. While we are insured against the risk of burglary arising
from our business, such insurance may not be sufficient to fully cover the losses we suffer. Further, the actual
recovery of the insured amount from the insurer requires the undertaking of certain procedures, and any delay in
recovery could adversely affect our reputation and results of operation.

30
30. The insurance coverage taken by us may not be adequate to protect against certain business risks. This
may adversely affect our financial condition and result of operations.

Operating and managing a Gold Loan business involves many risks that may adversely affect our operations and
the availability of insurance is therefore important to our operations. We believe that our insurance coverage is
adequate to cover us. However, to the extent that any uninsured risks materialise or if it fails to effectively cover
any risks, we could be exposed to substantial costs and losses that would adversely affect our financial condition.
In addition, we cannot be certain that the coverage will be available in sufficient amounts to cover one or more
large claims or that our insurers will not disclaim coverage as to any particular claim or claims. Occurrence of any
such situation could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

31. Our entire customer base comprises individual borrowers, who generally are more likely to be affected by
declining economic conditions than larger corporate borrowers.

A majority of our customer base belongs to the low to medium income group. Furthermore, unlike many
developed economies, a nationwide credit bureau has only recently become operational in India, so there is less
financial information available about individuals, particularly our focus customer segment of the low to medium
income group. It is therefore difficult to carry out precise credit risk analyses on our customers. While we follow
certain procedures to evaluate the credit profile of our customers before we sanction a loan, we generally rely on
the quality of the pledged gold rather than on a stringent analysis of the credit profile of our customers. Although
we believe that our risk management controls are sufficient, we cannot be certain that they will continue to be
sufficient or that additional risk management policies for individual borrowers will not be required. Failure to
maintain sufficient credit assessment policies, particularly for individual borrowers, could adversely affect our
loan portfolio, which could in turn have an adverse effect on our financial condition, cash flows and results of
operations.

32. We strive to attract, retain and motivate key employees, and our failure to do so could adversely affect our
business. Failure to hire key executives or employees could have a significant impact on our operations.

While we strive to attract, train, motivate and retain highly skilled employees, especially branch managers and
gold assessment technical personnel, any inability on our part to hire additional personnel or retain existing
qualified personnel may impair our ability to expand our business could lead to a decline of our revenue. Hiring
and retaining qualified and skilled managers and sales representatives are critical to our future, and competition
for experienced employees in the gold loan industry is intense. In addition, we may not be able to hire and retain
enough skilled and experienced employees to replace those who leave, or may not be able to re-deploy and retain
our employees to keep pace with continuing changes in technology, evolving standards and changing customer
preferences. The failure to hire key executives or employees or the loss of executives and key employees could
have a significant impact on our operations.

33. We are subject to the risk of fraud by our employees and customers. Our lending operations involve
significant amounts of cash collection which may be susceptible to loss or misappropriation or fraud by
our employees. Specifically, employees operating in remote areas may be susceptible to criminal elements
which may adversely affect our business, operations and ability to recruit and retain employees.

We are exposed to the risk of fraud and other misconduct by employees and customers. While we carefully recruit
all of our employees and screen all our employees who are responsible for disbursement of Gold Loans and
custody of gold, there could be instances of fraud with respect to Gold Loans and cash related misappropriation
by our employees. We are required to report cases of internal fraud to the RBI, which may take appropriate action.
We have also filed police complaints alleging fraud and misappropriation of gold by our employees in the past.
We cannot guarantee you that such acts of fraud will not be committed in the future, and any such occurrence of
fraud would adversely affect our reputation, business and results of operations.

Our lending and collection operations involve handling of significant amounts of cash, including collections of
instalment repayments in cash which is the norm in the finance industry. Large amounts of cash collection expose
us to the risk of loss, fraud, misappropriation or unauthorised transactions by our employees responsible for
dealing with such cash collections. While we obtain insurance, coverage including fidelity coverage and coverage
for cash in safes and in transit, and undertake various measures to detect and prevent any unauthorised
transactions, fraud or misappropriation by our employees, these measures may not be sufficient to prevent or deter
such activities in all cases, which may adversely affect our business operations and financial condition. In addition,
we may be subject to regulatory or other proceedings in connection with any such unauthorised transaction, fraud

31
or misappropriation by our agents or employees, which could adversely affect our goodwill, business prospects
and future financial performance.

Further, our employees operating in remote areas may be particularly susceptible to criminal elements as they are
involved in cash collection and transportation due to lack of local banking facilities. In the event of any such
adverse incident our ability to continue our operations in such areas will be adversely affected and our employee
recruitment and retention efforts may be affected, thereby affecting our expansion plans. In addition, if we
determine that certain areas of India pose a significantly higher risk of crime or political strife and instability, our
ability to operate in such areas will be adversely affected.

34. We are subject to the risk of unknowingly receiving stolen goods as collateral from customers which may
result in loss of collateral for the loan disbursed.

We have a policy in place to satisfy ownership of the gold jewellery and have taken adequate steps to ensure that
the KYC guidelines stipulated by RBI are followed and due diligence of the customer is undertaken prior to the
disbursement of loans. However, in the event that we unknowingly receive stolen goods as collateral from a
customer, the goods can be seized by authorities. Once seized by the authorities, gold items will be stored in court
storage facilities without a surety arrangement. No recourse is generally available to our Company in the event of
such seizure, except the recovery of the loss from the customer. Any seizure of the gold ornaments by the
authorities shall result in us losing the collateral for the loan disbursed and could adversely affect our business
and results of operations.

35. System failures or inadequacy and security breaches in computer systems may adversely affect our
operations and result in financial loss, disruption of our businesses, regulatory intervention or damage to
our reputation.

Our business is increasingly dependent on our ability to process, on a daily basis, a large number of transactions.
Through our information technology systems, we manage our operations, market to our target customers, and
monitor and control risks. We are dependent upon the IT software for effective monitoring & management, and
any failure in our IT systems or loss of connectivity or any loss of data arising from such failure can impact our
business and results of operations.

36. We have entered into, and will continue to enter into, related party transactions.

We have entered into certain transactions with related parties and are likely to continue to do so in the future.
Although all such related-party transactions are at arm’s length, as required under the Companies Act and SEBI
Listing Regulations. We cannot assure you that such transactions, individually or in aggregate, will not have an
adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations or that we could not have achieved more
favourable terms if such transactions had not been entered into with related parties. Such related-party transactions
may potentially involve conflicts of interest which may be detrimental to our interest and we cannot assure you
that such transactions, individually or in the aggregate, will always be in the best interests of our minority
shareholders and will not have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. For
further details, see “Financial Information” beginning on page 143.

37. Our internal procedures, on which we rely for obtaining information on our customers and loan collateral,
may be deficient and result in business losses.

We rely on our internal procedures for obtaining information relating to our customers and the loan collateral
provided. In the event of lapses or deficiencies in our procedures or in their implementation, we may be subject
to business or operational risk. For example, in the event that we unknowingly receive stolen goods as collateral
from a customer, the goods can be seized by authorities. Once seized by the authorities, gold items will be stored
in court storage facilities without a surety arrangement. No recourse will generally be available to our Company
in the event of such seizure, except the recovery of the loss from the customer.

38. Our inability to open new branches at correct locations may adversely affect our business.

Our business is dependent on our ability to service and support our customers from proximate locations and
thereby giving our customers easy access to our services. Further, it is vital for us to be present in key locations
for sourcing business as we depend on these branches to earn revenue. Thus, any inability on our part to open new
branches at correct locations may adversely affect our business and results of operations.

32
39. Our inability to obtain, renew or maintain our statutory and regulatory permits and approvals required to
operate our business may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results
of operations.

NBFCs in India are subject to strict regulations and supervision by the RBI. In addition to the numerous conditions
required for the registration as a NBFC with the RBI, we are required to maintain certain statutory and regulatory
permits and approvals for our business. In the future, we will be required to renew such permits and approvals
and obtain new permits and approvals for any proposed operations. There can be no assurance that the relevant
authorities will issue any of such permits or approvals in the time-frame anticipated by us or at all. Failure on our
part to renew, maintain or obtain the required permits or approvals may result in the interruption of our operations
and may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

In addition, our branches are required to be registered under the relevant shops and establishments laws of the
states in which they are located. The shops and establishment laws regulate various employment conditions,
including working hours, holidays and leave and overtime compensation. Some of our branches have not applied
for such registration while other branches still have applications for registration pending. If we fail to obtain or
retain any of these approvals or licenses, or renewals thereof, in a timely manner, or at all, our business may be
adversely affected. If we fail to comply, or a regulator claims we have not complied, with any of these conditions,
our certificate of registration may be suspended or cancelled, and we shall not be able to carry on such activities.

40. All our branch premises, except two branches are acquired on lease. Any termination of arrangements for
lease of our branches or our failure to renew the same in a favourable, timely manner, could adversely
affect our business and results of operations.

As on June 30, 2024, we had a total of 987 branches in 8 states and 1 union territory. Except 2 branches which
are owned by us, the remaining are located on leased premises. If any of the owners of these premises does not
renew an agreement under which we occupy the premises, attempts to evict us or seeks to renew an agreement on
terms and conditions non-acceptable to us, we may suffer a disruption in our operations or increased costs, or
both, which may adversely affect our business and results of operations.

41. We have ventured into new business areas and the sustainability, effective management and failure of
growth strategy could adversely affect our business and result of operations.

We have entered new businesses as part of our growth strategy. For example, we have received a corporate
insurance agency license from IRDA under the Insurance Act, 1938 for acting as a corporate agent for the Life
Insurance Corporation of India, which will enable us to market their life insurance plans. In furtherance to these
objectives our Company had obtained a certificate of renewal registration from the IRDA, dated March 28, 2022
to commence/carry business in the capacity of a Corporate Agent (Composite) under the Insurance Regulatory
and Development Authority Act, 1999.

Our Company has also started microfinancing activities. Additionally, our Company owns a parcel of agricultural
land in Kattappana village, Udumpanchola Taluk, Idukki district, admeasuring 108.74 acres, through which our
Company undertakes agricultural activity of cultivating cardamom. Our Company, on the basis of the definitive
agreements entered into for installation of four windmill units at Ramakkalmedu, Idukki district of Kerala has
completed the commissioning of the project and the windmills at Ramakkalmedu, Thookkupalam in Idukki
District have become operational. Our Company has also submitted a tariff petition with the energy commission
for fixing the tariff rate.

Our Company has also entered into agreements for its money transfer business with EBIX Money Express Private
Limited (“EBIX”) to act in the capacity of a sub representative to offer money transfer services. Our Company
also holds a FFMC license and carries on money changing activities through its branches authorised by RBI. As
on June 30, 2024, we had 1 head office and 61 authorised branches. Our currency operations include sale and
purchase of foreign exchange at different authorised branches.

We have little or no operating experience with such businesses, and you should consider the risks and difficulties
we may encounter by entering into new lines of business. New businesses may require significant capital
investments and commitments of time from our senior management, and there often is little or no prospect of
earnings in a new business for several years. Moreover, there is no assurance any new business we develop or
enter will commence in accordance with our timelines, if at all, which could result in additional costs and time

33
commitments from our senior management. There also can be no assurance that our management will be able to
develop the skills necessary to successfully manage these new business areas. Our inability to effectively manage
any of the above issues could materially and adversely affect our business and impact our future financial
performance.

42. Our contingent liabilities have not been provided for in our financial statements which, if materialize, may
impact our financial condition.

As at March 31, 2024, our financial statements disclosed and reflected the following contingent liabilities:

Particulars ₹ in lakhs
Income Tax Demand for the period 2011-12 to 2016-17 1,337.62
Kerala Value Added Tax demand for the period 2014-2015 83.36
Total contingent liabilities 1,420.98

Contingent liabilities based on the last audited financials:


(₹ in lakhs)
Particulars As at March 31,
2024
(I) Contingent Liabilities -
(a) Claims against the company not acknowledged as debt
(i) Income Tax Demands 1,337.62
(ii) GST Demands 2.56
(iii) Sales Tax Demands 83.36
Total contingent liabilities 1,423.54

If at any time we are compelled to pay all or a material proportion of these contingent liabilities, it would have a
material and adverse effect on our business, future financial performance and results of operations.

43. We rely significantly on our management team, our Key Managerial Personnel/Senior Management and
our ability to attract and retain talent. Loss of any member from our management team or that of our Key
Managerial Personnel/Senior Management may adversely affect our business and results of operation.

We rely significantly on our core management team which oversees the operations, strategy and growth of our
businesses. Our Key Managerial Personnel/Senior Management have been integral to our development. Our
success is largely dependent on our management team which ensures the implementation of our strategy. If one
or more members of our management team are unable or unwilling to continue in their present positions, they
may be difficult to replace, and our business and results of operation may be adversely affected.

RISKS PERTAINING TO THIS ISSUE

44. Changes in interest rates may affect the price of our NCDs which frequently accompany inflation and/or
a growing economy, are likely to have a negative effect on the price of our NCDs.

All securities where a fixed rate of interest is offered, such as our NCDs, are subject to price risk. The price of
such securities will vary inversely with changes in prevailing interest rates, i.e., when interest rates rise, prices of
fixed income securities fall and when interest rates drop, the prices increase. The extent of fall or rise in the prices
is a function of the existing coupon, days to maturity and the increase or decrease in the level of prevailing interest
rates. Increased rates of interest, which frequently accompany inflation and/or a growing economy, are likely to
have a negative effect on the price of our NCDs.

45. The fund requirement and deployment mentioned in the Objects of the Issue have not been appraised by
any bank or financial institution.

We intend to use the proceeds of the Issue, after meeting the expenditures of and related to the Issue, for the
purpose of onward lending and for repayment of interest and principal of existing loans and also for general
corporate purposes. For further details, see “Objects of the Issue” at page 75. The fund requirement and
deployment is based on internal management estimates and has not been appraised by any bank or financial
institution. The management will have significant flexibility in applying the proceeds received by us from the
Issue. The utilization details of the proceeds of the Issue shall be adequately disclosed as per applicable law.

34
Further, as per the provisions of the SEBI NCS Regulations, we are not required to appoint a monitoring agency
and therefore no monitoring agency has been appointed for the Issue.

46. The liquidity for the NCDs in the secondary market is very low and it may remain so in the future and the
price of the NCDs may be volatile.

The Issue will be a new public issue of NCDs for our Company and the liquidity in NCDs at present is very low
in the secondary market. Although an application has been made to list the NCDs on BSE, there can be no
assurance that liquidity for the NCDs will improve, and if liquidity for the NCDs were to improve, there is no
obligation on us to maintain the secondary market. The liquidity and market prices of the NCDs can be expected
to vary with changes in market and economic conditions, our financial condition and prospects and other factors
that generally influence market price of NCDs. Such fluctuations may significantly affect the liquidity and market
price of the NCDs, which may trade at a discount to the price at which you purchase the NCDs.

47. You may not be able to recover, on a timely basis or at all, the full value of the outstanding amounts and/or
the interest accrued thereon in connection with the NCDs. Failure or delay to recover the expected value
from a sale or disposition of the assets charged as security in connection with the NCDs could expose the
holders to a potential loss.

Our ability to pay interest accrued on the NCDs and/or the principal amount outstanding from time to time in
connection therewith would be subject to various factors, including, inter-alia our financial condition, profitability
and the general economic conditions in India and in the global financial markets. We cannot assure you that we
would be able to repay the principal amount outstanding from time to time on the NCDs and/or the interest accrued
thereon in a timely manner or at all. Although our Company will create appropriate security in favour of the
Debenture Trustee for the NCD Holders on the assets adequate to ensure minimum 100.00% asset cover for the
NCDs, which shall be free from any encumbrances, the realisable value of the assets charged as security, when
liquidated, may be lower than the outstanding principal and/or interest accrued thereon in connection with the
NCDs. A failure or delay to recover the expected value from a sale or disposition of the assets charged as security
in connection with the NCDs could expose you to a potential loss.

48. As the NCDs of our Company are listed on BSE, our Company is subject to certain obligations and
reporting requirements under SEBI Listing Regulations. Any non-compliances/delay in complying with
such obligations and reporting requirements may render us/our promoter liable to prosecution and/or
penalties.

Our Company is subject to the obligations and reporting requirements under SEBI Listing Regulations. In the
past, our Company had not complied with certain provisions relating to the submissions of documents and
intimations, in respect of the previous public issues, with Debenture Trustee. Our Company has received an email
dated September 14, 2022, from BSE stating that the Company was in non-compliance of regulations 52(7)/ 7A
of SEBI Listing Regulations in relation non-submission of statement indicating the utilisation of issue proceeds/
material deviation in issue proceeds and accordingly a fine of ₹ 7,080 was levied on our Company. Our Company
has paid the said fine amount. Additionally, we have received two emails dated September 27, 2022 and
September 28, 2022 from BSE stating that the company was in non-compliance of Regulation 57(4) and
Regulation 50(1) of SEBI Listing Regulations amounting to ₹ 5,900 and ₹ 28,320 respectively in relation to non-
submission of details of payable interest/ dividend/ principal obligations during the quarter ended September 30,
2022 and delay in furnishing prior intimation with respect to date of payment of interest/ redemption amount or
intimation regarding board meeting effecting the rights or interest of the NCDs/NSCRPS. Our Company is yet to
pay the said fines. Though our Company endeavors to comply with all such obligations/reporting requirements,
there have been certain instances of non-compliance and delays in complying with such obligations/reporting
requirements. Any such delays or non-compliance would render our Company to prosecution and/or penalties.
Although our Company have not received any further communication from the Stock Exchange or any authority
in this regard, there could be a possibility that penalties may be levied against our Company for certain instances
of non-compliance and delays in complying with such obligations/reporting requirements. Further BSE has
informed that no SOP fines are pending against Kosamattam Finance Limited vide email dated March 06, 2024.

49. There can be no assurance that the NCDs issued pursuant to this Issue will be listed on the Stock Exchange
in a timely manner, or at all.

In accordance with Indian law and practice, permission for listing and trading of the NCD issued pursuant to this
issue will not be granted until after the NCDs have been issued and allotted. Approval for listing and trading will

35
require all relevant documents authorising the issue of NCDs to be submitted. There could be a failure or delay in
listing the NCDs in BSE for reasons unforeseen. While the Company shall take all steps necessary to get the
Debentures listed within the timelines prescribed by SEBI, there could be a failure or delay in listing the NCDs
in BSE. There is no assurance that the NCDs issued pursuant to the Issue will be listed on stock exchange in a
timely manner, or at all.

If permission to deal in and for an official quotation of the NCDs is not granted by BSE, our Company will
forthwith repay, without interest, all monies received from the Applicants in accordance with prevailing law in
this context, and pursuant to this Prospectus

50. There may be no active market for the NCDs on the retail debt market/capital market segment of the BSE.
As a result, the liquidity and market prices of the NCDs may fail to develop and may accordingly be
adversely affected.

There can be no assurance that an active market for the NCDs will develop. If an active market for the NCDs fails
to develop or be sustained, the liquidity and market prices of the NCDs may be adversely affected. The market
price of the NCDs would depend on various factors inter alia including (i) the interest rate on similar securities
available in the market and the general interest rate scenario in the country, (ii) the market price of our Equity
Shares, (iii) the market for listed debt securities, (iv) general economic conditions, and (v) our financial
performance, growth prospects and results of operations. The aforementioned factors may adversely affect the
liquidity and market price of the NCDs, which may trade at a discount to the price at which you purchase the
NCDs and/or be relatively illiquid.

51. Our Company may raise further borrowings and charge its assets after receipt of necessary consents from
its existing lenders. In such a scenario, the Debenture Holders holding the NCDs will rank pari passu with
other secured creditors and to that extent, may reduce the amounts recoverable by the Debenture Holders
upon our Company’s bankruptcy, winding up or liquidation.

Our Company may, subject to receipt of all necessary consents from its existing lenders and the Debenture Trustee
to the Issue, raise further borrowings and charge its assets. Our Company is free to decide the nature of security
that may be provided for future borrowings. In such a scenario, the Debenture Holders holding the NCDs will
rank pari passu with other creditors and to that extent, may reduce the amounts recoverable by the Debenture
Holders upon our Company’s bankruptcy, winding up or liquidation.

52. In the event of liquidation or bankruptcy, the new bankruptcy code in India may affect our Company's
right to recover loans from its borrowers.

The Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016 (“Bankruptcy Code”) was notified on August 5, 2016. The
Bankruptcy Code offers a uniform and comprehensive insolvency legislation encompassing all companies,
partnerships, and individuals (other than financial firms). It allows creditors to assess the viability of a debtor as
a business decision and agree upon a plan for its revival or a speedy liquidation. The Bankruptcy Code creates a
new institutional framework, consisting of a regulator, insolvency professionals, information utilities and
adjudicatory mechanisms, which will facilitate a formal and time-bound insolvency resolution and liquidation
process.

In case insolvency proceedings are initiated against a debtor to our Company, we may not have complete control
over the recovery of amounts due to us. Under the Bankruptcy Code, upon invocation of an insolvency resolution
process, a committee of creditors is constituted by the interim resolution professional, wherein each financial
creditor is given a voting share proportionate to the debts owed to it. Any decision of the committee of creditors
must be taken by a vote of not less than 66% of the voting share of all financial creditors. Any resolution plan
approved by committee of creditors is binding upon all creditors, even if they vote against it. In case a liquidation
process is opted for, the Bankruptcy Code provides for a fixed order of priority in which proceeds from the sale
of the debtor’s assets are to be distributed. Before sale proceeds are distributed to a secured creditor, they are to
be distributed for the costs of the insolvency resolution and liquidation processes, debts owed to workmen and
other employees, and debts owed to unsecured credits. Further, under this process, dues owed to the Central and
State Governments rank at par with those owed to secured creditors. Moreover, other secured creditors may decide
to opt out of the process, in which case they are permitted to realise their security interests in priority.

Accordingly, if the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code are invoked against any of the borrowers of our Company,
it may affect our Company’s ability to recover our loans from the borrowers and enforcement of our Company’s

36
rights will be subject to the Bankruptcy Code.

53. We cannot guarantee the accuracy or completeness of facts and other statistics with respect to India, the
Indian economy and the NBFC and Gold Loan industries contained in this Prospectus.

While facts and other statistics in this Prospectus relating to India, the Indian economy as well as the Gold Loan
industry have been based on various publications and reports from agencies that we believe are reliable, we cannot
guarantee the quality or reliability of such materials, particularly since there is limited publicly available
information specific to the Gold Loan industry. While we have taken reasonable care in the reproduction of such
information, industry facts and other statistics, the same have not been prepared or independently verified by us
or any of our respective affiliates or advisors and, therefore we make no representation as to their accuracy or
completeness. These facts and other statistics include the facts and statistics included in the chapter titled “Industry
Overview” beginning on page 79. Due to possibly flawed or ineffective data collection methods or discrepancies
between published information and market practice and other problems, the statistics herein may be inaccurate or
may not be comparable to statistics produced elsewhere and should not be unduly relied upon. Further, there is no
assurance that they are stated or compiled on the same basis or with the same degree of accuracy, as the case may
be, elsewhere.

EXTERNAL RISK FACTORS

54. Financial difficulties and other problems in certain financial institutions in India could cause our business
to suffer and adversely affect our results of operations.

We are exposed to the risks of the Indian financial system, which in turn may be affected by financial difficulties
and other problems faced by certain Indian financial institutions. Certain Indian financial institutions have
experienced difficulties during recent years. Some co-operative banks (which tend to operate in rural sector) have
also faced serious financial and liquidity crises. There has been a trend towards consolidation with weaker banks,
NBFCs and HFCs being merged with stronger entities. The problems faced by individual Indian financial
institutions and any instability in or difficulties faced by the Indian financial system generally could create adverse
market perception about Indian financial institutions, banks and NBFCs. This in turn could adversely affect our
business, our future financial performance, our shareholders’ funds and the market price of our NCDs.

55. Terrorist attacks, civil unrest and other acts of violence or war involving India and other countries could
adversely affect the financial markets and our business.

Terrorist attacks and other acts of violence or war may negatively affect our business and may also adversely
affect the worldwide financial markets. These acts may also result in a loss of business confidence. In addition,
any deterioration in relations between India and its neighbouring countries might result in investor concern about
stability in the region, which could adversely affect our business.

India has also witnessed civil disturbances in recent years and it is possible that future civil unrest as well as other
adverse social, economic and political events in India could have a negative impact on us. Such incidents could
also create a greater perception that investment in Indian companies involves a higher degree of risk and could
have an adverse impact on our business and the market price of our NCDs.

56. Natural calamities could have a negative impact on the Indian economy and cause our business to suffer.

India has experienced natural calamities such as earthquakes, a tsunami, floods and drought in the past few years.
The extent and severity of these natural disasters determines their impact on the Indian economy. Further,
prolonged spells of below normal rainfall or other natural calamities could have a negative impact on the Indian
economy thereby, adversely affecting our business. For example, we were impacted by the floods in Kerala in
Fiscal 2019 as a result of which we had to temporarily close some of our branches in Kerala which resulted in a
decline in our cash flows and revenues during that period. As a result, any present or future outbreak of natural
calamities could have a material adverse effect on our business and the market price of the NCDs.

57. Any downgrading of India’s debt rating by an international rating agency could have a negative impact
on our business.

India’s sovereign debt rating could be downgraded due to several factors, including changes in tax or fiscal policy
or a decline in India’s foreign exchange reserves, all which are outside our control. Any adverse revisions to

37
India’s credit ratings for domestic and international debt by international rating agencies may adversely impact
our ability to raise additional external financing, and the interest rates and other commercial terms at which such
additional financing is available. This could have an adverse effect on our business and future financial
performance and our ability to obtain financing for capital expenditures.

58. Instability of economic policies and the political situation in India could adversely affect the fortunes of
the industry.

There is no assurance that the liberalisation policies of the government will continue in the future. Protests against
privatisation could slow down the pace of liberalisation and deregulation. The Government of India plays an
important role by regulating the policies and regulations that govern the private sector. The current economic
policies of the government may change at a later date. The pace of economic liberalisation could change and
specific laws and policies affecting the industry and other policies affecting investments in our Company’s
business could change as well. A significant change in India’s economic liberalisation and deregulation policies
could disrupt business and economic conditions in India and thereby affect our Company’s business.

Unstable domestic as well as international political environment could impact the economic performance in the
short term as well as the long term. The Government of India has pursued the economic liberalisation policies
including relaxing restrictions on the private sector over the past several years. The present Government has also
announced polices and taken initiatives that support continued economic liberalisation.

The Government has traditionally exercised and continues to exercise a significant influence over many aspects
of the Indian economy. Our Company’s business may be affected not only by changes in interest rates, changes
in Government policy, taxation, social and civil unrest but also by other political, economic, or other developments
in or affecting India.

59. Changing laws, rules and regulations and legal uncertainties, including tax laws and regulations, may
adversely affect our business, results of operation and prospects and could lead to new compliance
requirements that are uncertain.

The regulatory and policy environment in which we operate is evolving and subject to change. Such changes,
including the instances mentioned below, may adversely affect our business, results of operations and prospects,
to the extent that we are unable to suitably respond to and comply with any such changes in applicable law and
policy. For example:

• The Government of India announced the Union Budget for Financial Year 2024 (“Budget 2024”), pursuant
to which the Finance Bill 2024 has proposed various amendments. The Finance Bill 2024 is yet to receive
assent from the President of India. We have not fully determined the impact of these recent and proposed
laws and regulations on our business. We cannot predict whether any amendments proposed by the Finance
Bill 2024 will have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Unfavourable changes in or interpretations of existing, or the promulgation of new, laws, rules and regulations
including foreign investment and stamp duty laws governing our business and operations could result in us
being deemed to be in contravention of such laws and may require us to apply for additional approvals.

• On September 2, 2022, the RBI issued the ‘Guidelines on Digital Lending’ following the ‘Recommendations
of the Working Group on Digital Lending – Implementation’ (the “Recommendations”) issued by the RBI
on August 10, 2022. Our Company is engaged in digital lending within the meaning of the Guidelines on
Digital Lending. On June 8, 2023, the RBI issued the ‘Guidelines on Default Loss Guarantee’ (“DLG
Guidelines”) in Digital Lending. The DLG Guidelines is applicable to our Company. Failure to comply with
the obligations in a timely manner may lead to imposition of penalties, and/or other regulatory action being
taken by the RBI against us, which may adversely affect our business operations.

Unfavourable changes in or interpretations of existing, or the promulgation of new, laws, rules and regulations
including foreign investment and stamp duty laws governing our business and operations could result in us being
deemed to be in contravention of such laws and may require us to apply for additional approvals. We may incur
increased costs and other burdens relating to compliance with such new requirements, which may also require
significant management time and other resources, and any failure to comply may adversely affect our business,
results of operations and prospects. Uncertainty in the application, interpretation or implementation of any
amendment to, or change in, governing law, regulation or policy, including by reason of an absence, or a limited
body, of administrative or judicial precedent may be time consuming as well as costly for us to resolve and may

38
impact the viability of our current business or restrict our ability to grow our businesses in the future.

the Companies Act, 2013 provides that:

“Any person who:

(a) makes or abets making of an application in a fictitious name to a company for acquiring, or subscribing for,
its securities; or

(b) makes or abets making of multiple applications to a company in different names or in different combinations
of his name or surname for acquiring or subscribing for its securities; or

₹10 lakh or 1.00% of the turnover of the Company, whichever is lower, includes imprisonment for a term which
shall not be less than six months extending up to 10 years (provided that where the fraud involves public interest,

47

extending up to three times of such amount. In case the fraud involves (i) an amount which is less than ₹10 lakh
or 1.00% of the turnover of the Company, whichever is lower; and (ii) does not involve public interest, then such

An overview of the Indian economy

India to remain one of the fastest growing economies amid global slowdown
Even as the Indian economy has battled the three Cs — Covid-19, conflict (geopolitical) and climate change — it
has shown a fair degree of resilience. Despite global slowdown, tightening of monetary conditions and high
inflation, India recorded a higher economic growth rate compared with many peer economies owing to its
relatively strong local consumption, lower reliance on global demand and continued resilience to external
headwinds.
India's gross domestic product (GDP) exceeded expectations yet again. According to the National Statistics Office
(NSO)'s second advance estimates (SAE), real GDP accelerated to 8.4% on-year in the third quarter of this fiscal
from 8.1% in the second quarter. Growth of the past two quarters were revised up (second quarter was revised to
8.1% from 7.6%, and first quarter to 8.2% from 7.8%).
After a strong GDP print in the past three fiscals, CRISIL MI&A Research expects GDP growth to moderate to
6.8% next fiscal as fiscal consolidation will reduce the fiscal impulse to growth, rising borrowing costs and
increased regulatory measures could weigh on demand, net tax impact on GDP is expected to normalize, and
exports could be impacted due to uneven growth in key trade partners and any escalation of the Red Sea crisis.
On the other hand, another spell of normal monsoon and easing inflation could revive rural demand.
The Indian economy will take support from domestic structural reforms and cyclical levers and can retain and
even improve its growth prospects. This can be done by continuing to build infrastructure both digital and physical
and undertaking growth-enhancing reforms aimed at improving the ease of doing business. Amid global risks,
this can also allow India to grasp opportunities from diversifying global supply chains.

In the near term gradually the government of India will start receding its capex, and expectations the pass on being
taken up by the private sector. Some sectors have already been picked up by the private capex such as electronics,
EVs and green transition accounted for 16% of incremental capex in fiscals 2023 and 2024.

With 7.6% GDP growth estimated by the National Statistical Office (NSO) for this fiscal, India’s performance
has exceeded expectations. The major bugbear has been inflation, which though localised, has stayed above the
4% target of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI). CRISIL MI&A Research forecasts a moderation to 6.8% in fiscal
2025, largely due to cyclical factors.

Indigenous advantages to result in a stronger economic growth rate in the longer term
India has the largest population in the world

80
As per the report published (in July 2020) by National commission on population, Ministry of Health & Family
Welfare report, India’s population in 2011 was 121 crores, comprising nearly 24.6 crore households. It should be
noted that decadal growth rate during 2001-2011 stood at 17%. This is estimated to have fallen to 12% during
2011-2021 and is likely to decline further to 9% during 2021-2031. However, with 147 crore estimated population
in 2030, India will continue to be a major opportunity market from demand perspective. Additionally, as per
United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs, India has overtaken China as the world’s most
populous country in April 2023.

Favourable demographics
India is also one of the countries with the largest youth population, with a median age of 28 years. About 90% of
Indians are aged below 60 years. It is estimated that 64% of this population is aged between 15 and 59 years.
CRISIL MI&A Research expects the existence of a large share of working population, coupled with rapid
urbanisation and rising affluence, will propel growth of the Indian financial services sector.

Rise in urbanisation
Urbanisation is a key growth driver for India, as it leads to faster infrastructure development, job creation,
development of modern consumer services, and the city’s ability to mobilise savings. The share of urban
population in total population has been consistently rising over the years and is expected to reach 36% by 2025
from 31% in 2011, spurring more demand.
Urban consumption in India has shown signs of improvement and given the country’s favourable demographics,
coupled with rising disposable incomes, the trend is likely to continue and drive domestic economic growth.

Overall NBFC – Industry overview
NBFCs are important part of the credit system
Financing needs in India have risen in sync with the notable economic growth over the past decade. NBFCs have
played a major role in meeting this need, complementing banks and other financial institutions.
NBFCs help fill gaps in the availability of financial services with respect to products as well as customer and
geographic segments. A strong linkage at the grassroots level makes them a critical cog in the financial machine.
They cater to the unbanked masses in rural and semi-urban reaches and lend to the informal sector and people
without credit histories, thereby enabling the government and regulators to realise the mission of financial
inclusion.

Classification of NBFCs
NBFCs until now have been classified on the basis of the kind of liabilities they access, types of activities they
pursue and their perceived systemic importance. RBI on October 22, 2021, introduced additional classification of
NBFCs vide Scale Based Regulation (SBR) framework into four categories i.e., Base Layer (NBFC – BL), Middle
Layer (NBFC – ML), Upper Layer (NBFC – UL) and Top Layer (NBFC – TL).

Liabilities-based classification
NBFCs are classified on the basis of liabilities into two broad categories:
(a) deposit-taking; and
(b) non-deposit taking.
Deposit-taking NBFCs (NBFC – D) are subject to the requirements of stricter capital adequacy, liquid-assets
maintenance and exposure norms.

Further, in 2015, non-deposit taking NBFCs with an asset size of Rs 5 billion and above were labelled as
‘systemically important non-deposit taking NBFCs’ (NBFC – ND – SI), and separate prudential regulations were
made applicable to them.

Activity-based classification
As per the RBI circular dated February 22, 2019, the central bank merged three categories of NBFCs, i.e., asset
finance companies (AFC), loan companies (LCs) and investment companies (ICs), into a new category called
NBFC - Investment and Credit Company (NBFC-ICC)
1. Investment and credit company – (NBFC-ICC): An NBFC-ICC means any company that is a financial

Scale based classification


As per RBI circular dated October 22, 2021, the central bank introduced Scale Based Regulation (SBR) framework
for classification of NBFCs along with the activity-based classification of NBFCs as per earlier regulations. The
revised SBR framework shall be effective from October 01, 2022

As per the revised framework NBFCs will be classified into four layers based on their size, activity and perceived
riskiness. NBFCs in the lowest layer will be known as NBFC – Base Layer (NBFC BL), NBFCs in middle layer
and upper layer shall be known as NBFC - Middle Layer (NBFC-ML) and NBFC - Upper Layer (NBFC-UL)
respectively. The Top Layer is expected to be empty and will be known as NBFC - Top Layer (NBFC - TL).
Classification on the basis of scale-based regulation

(NBFC-BL) (NBFC-ML) NBFC –Upper Layer NBFC – Top Layer
(NBFC-UL) (NBFC-TL)

Source: RBI, CRISIL MI&A Research


Base Layer – NBFC – BL shall comprise of (a). Non deposit taking NBFCs below asset size of Rs 1000 crore
and (b). Following NBFCs – (i) NBFC P2P, (ii) NBFC – AA, (iii) NOHFC, and (iv) NBFCs not availing public
funds and not having any customer interface
Middle Layer – NBFC – ML shall comprise of (a). All deposit taking NBFCs irrespective of asset size, (b). Non-
deposit taking with asset size of Rs 1000 crore and above and (c). Following NBFCs – (i) Standalone primary
dealer (SPD), (ii) Infrastructure debt fund (IDF), (iii) Core investment companies (CIC), (iv) Housing finance
companies (HFCs) and (v) Infrastructure finance companies (IFCs) Government owned NBFCs shall be placed
in the Base Layer or Middle Layer, as the case may be. They will not be placed in the Upper Layer till further
notice by RBI.
Upper Layer – NBFC – UL shall comprise of NBFCs which are specifically identified by the Reserve Bank as
warranting enhanced regulatory requirement based on a set of parameters and scoring methodology. The top ten
eligible NBFCs in terms of their asset size shall always reside in the upper layer, irrespective of any other factor.
Top Layer – NBFC – TL shall be populated only if in opinion of RBI there is a substantial increase in the
potential systemic risk from specific NBFCs in the Upper Layer. Such NBFCs shall be moved to Top layer from
the Upper layer.
Other regulatory changes under Scale Based Regulations

84
1. Net Owned Fund (NOF) for NBFC-ICC, NBFC-MFI and NBFC-Factors shall be increased to Rs 10 cr
timelines for change in NOF for above mentioned NBFCs is as follows.

2. NPA classification: NPA classification norms stands changed to the overdue period of more than 90 days
for all categories of NBFCs, timelines to adhere change for NBFC – BL to 90 days NPA norm is as
follows.

3. Experience of the board - Considering the need for professional experience in managing the affairs of
NBFCs, at least one of the directors shall have relevant experience of having worked in a bank/ NBFC.
This regulation shall be applicable for all class of NBFCs.
4. Ceiling on IPO Funding – RBI prescribed ceiling of Rs 1 crore per borrower for financing subscriptions
to IPO. NBFCs can fix more conservative limits. This regulation shall come into effect from April 01,
2022.

Prompt corrective action framework


NBFCs have been growing in size and now have substantial interconnectedness with other segments of the
financial system. Accordingly, in October 2022, the RBI made effective a prompt corrective action (PCA)
framework to further strengthen the supervisory tools applicable to NBFCs. The objective of the framework is to
enable supervisory intervention at the appropriate time.
It requires the supervised entity to initiate and implement remedial measures in a timely manner to restore its
financial health. It does not preclude the central bank from taking any other action as it deems fit at any time, in
addition to the corrective actions prescribed in the framework.
The PCA framework applies to all NBFC-Ds and all NBFC-NDs in the middle, upper and top layers, identified
under the new SBR. It excludes NBFCs not accepting/ not intending to accept public funds, government
companies, primary dealers and HFCs.

The risk thresholds when breached that may result in invocation of PCA are:

1. For NBFC-Ds and NBFC-NDs (excluding CICs):


Indicator Risk threshold 1 Risk threshold 2 Risk threshold 3

Credit concentration norms
RBI, in its April 19, 2022, guidelines on Large Exposure Framework for Non-Banking Financial Company –
Upper Layer (NBFC-UL), permits exposures to the original counterparty to be offset with certain credit risk
transfer instruments. These include instruments such as cash margin/caution money/security deposit against which
the right to set off is available, held as collateral against the advances, and government guaranteed claims (0%
risk weight for central and 20% for state government for CRAR computation) However, this was exclusive to
NBFC-UL.
In a move towards standardisation, the RBI has extended this provision to NBFCs in the middle and base layers.
This harmonisation levels the playing field for all NBFCs across layers.
Out of 9,376 RBI-registered NBFCs, only 15 falls under the NBFC-UL category, while the majority are in the
middle and base layers.

Overall NBFCs – Review and outlook


NBFC credit growth to remain robust despite macroeconomic and regulatory challenges
The credit growth of non-banking financial companies (NBFCs), which has trended above India’s gross domestic
product (GDP) historically, is expected to continue to rise at a faster pace in fiscal 2025.
The growth in fiscal 2023 marked a return to the pre-pandemic trend in credit growth. Between fiscals 2016 and
2018, NBFCs had clocked credit growth of 15% CAGR, mainly because of aggressive expansion of their footprint
and the entry of several new players across India. This also coincided with a decline in bank credit growth.
However, the NBFC sector faced headwinds after Infrastructure Leasing & Financial Services (IL&FS) defaulted
on repayment of loans in September 2018, followed by a liquidity crisis.

In contrast, India’s gross domestic product (GDP), which exceeded forecasts, expanding an estimated 7.6% in
fiscal 2024, is projected to see some moderation in growth in fiscal 2025.
The transmission of previous rate hikes by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) to broader lending rates continues.
However, while rising borrowing costs and regulatory measures to clamp down risky lending could moderate
domestic demand, another spell of normal monsoon and easing inflation could provide some respite.
Still, while the RBI has not raised rates since February 2023, it has been equally cautious about cutting rates, amid
slower cooling of inflation and a strong growth trajectory. Globally as well, major central banks remain cautious
about cutting rates.
Going forward, though, an above-normal monsoon will bode well for domestic disinflation. But inclement weather
because of global warming and rising crude oil prices remain monitorables. Also, government bond yields have
firmed up, as markets are pricing in a delay in rate cuts from the RBI. In fact, ‘higher for longer’ interest rates and
the RBI’s regulatory measures could weigh on the overall financial conditions in this fiscal as well.
Performance of NBFCs to remain healthy in fiscal 2025
NBFCs’ credit, estimated to have grown 17-18% on-year in fiscal 2024, is expected to sustain the momentum,
and rise 15-16% on-year this fiscal, with housing, personal, auto and microfinance loans in the retail segment, and
micro, small and medium enterprise (MSME) loans in the wholesale segment continuing to be the primary drivers.
Lending to MSMEs has gained traction over the past three fiscals, with NBFCs increasing focus on unsecured
business loans amid higher competition from banks in the traditional segments.
Also, consolidation within certain corporate groups and other corporate activities indicate buoyancy in the NBFC
space and expectations of good credit conditions, though a pinch of caution. The entry of a new player in the retail
space is expected to intensify competition in the coming fiscals as well.
Meanwhile, asset quality improved last fiscal on account of normalisation of economic activity and improved
collection efficiency across segments, with the gold loan segment being an exception. Collection efficiency is
expected to hold up in the near future as well, resulting in further easing of gross non-performing assets (GNPAs).
However, here, the performance of unsecured retail credit will be a key monitorable.
The buoyant growth since fiscal 2022 is in sharp contrast to fiscal 2021, when the Covid-19 pandemic brought a
sudden halt in economic activity and slowed down demand for credit, impacted by funding challenges. But banks
benefitted in this milieu and used their surplus liquidity to gain market share, in terms of credit in a few key
segments. In fiscal 2022, the economy began to reopen and lockdowns were relaxed after the second wave of the
pandemic, leading to normalisation of business activities and driving credit growth in most segments.
Consequently, by fiscal 2023, NBFCs were back on track, with disbursements growing 16.8% on-year, albeit on
a lower base of 7.8% rise in fiscal 2022

Steady growth across retail as well as recovery wholesale segments is estimated to have resulted in the shares of
the two in overall NBFC credit remaining stable in fiscal 2024, at 45% and 55%, respectively. While credit growth
in the retail segment is estimated to have risen a healthy 18-20% on-year, wholesale credit rose 16-18%. Though
the credit growth in the case of the retail segment was healthy, it was a moderation in comparison with fiscal 2023.
This was because of normalisation in unsecured segments, which had increased sharply in the past, spurred by the
RBI’s risk weight circular.
Still, post the NBFC crisis in fiscal 2018, the retail segment had led growth of the NBFC sector, while the
wholesale segment posted low single-digit growth between fiscals 2020 and 2022. In fiscal 2023, the retail
segment grew a sharp 20% on-year and the wholesale, 14%. Also, while credit growth in the retail segment was
broad-based, the MSME segment was the primary growth driver in the wholesale segment, supported by steady
growth in infrastructure financing on a high base.

The retail portfolio of NBFCs was estimated at Rs 19.3 trillion in March 2024. Within the space, the share of the
unsecured portion is estimated to have expanded from 14% in fiscal 2019 to 26% in fiscal 2024. The RBI circular
acted as a catalyst against this backdrop of rapid growth of unsecured lending by NBFCs and banks and its
underlying risks.
Higher inflation, along with stagnant income, could cramp the borrower’s repayment capability. Overleveraging
at the borrower’s end could also augment asset quality vulnerability. This is further exacerbated in unsecured
lending, where there is no recourse to collateral and, hence, the loss given default is high. Therefore, lenders are
required to keep higher capital buffers against such exposures as a result of this circular.
Between fiscals 2021 and 2023, i.e. the post-pandemic period, the secured segment logged 11% CAGR, surpassing
the pre-pandemic growth rate of 8%. In contrast, the unsecured segment clocked a staggering 41% CAGR as

89
NBFCs expanded their reach by targeting the new-to-credit customer segment and focussing on tier II and lower-
tier cities.
A decadal low savings rate of Indian households of 5.1% owing to rising financial liabilities indicates a debt-
driven consumption-led post-pandemic recovery. The emergence of fintech companies (fintechs) has played a key
role in driving growth of the unsecured segment. Fintechs have been at the forefront of innovative lending
practices, often catering to segments that traditional financial institutions might not reach.
Retail segment continues to lead NBFC credit growth

E – estimated; P — projected
Source: Company reports, CRISIL MI&A Research
Housing: The credit growth of the overall housing finance sector has returned to pre-pandemic level, rising an
estimated 12-14% in fiscal 2024. The slowdown caused by the pandemic affected low- and middle-income groups
for a brief period; however, the segment turned a corner faster than expected. In fiscal 2025, CRISIL MI&A
Research expects demand for housing to rise 10-12% on-year. This, along with the expected 8-10% growth in
capital values in fiscal 2024 and 5-7% in fiscal 2025 and incremental construction under the Pradhan Mantri Awas
Yojana during the fiscals, will support an estimated 13-14% growth in NBFC/housing finance companies’ (HFC)
housing loans in fiscal 2024 and 11-13% growth in fiscal 2025.
Auto finance: The segment saw healthy credit growth in fiscal 2023, supported by easing of semiconductor
shortages, pent-up demand for cars and utility vehicles, improving profitability of transporters, and advance
buying in anticipation of the second phase of Bharat Stage-VI norms. Growth in fiscals 2024 and 2025 will be
driven by rising demand for commercial vehicles, cars, utility vehicles, and two-/three-wheelers, accompanied by
bigger ticket financing and the government’s focus on infrastructure spending. With this, CRISIL MI&A Research
estimates the auto finance NBFC segment grew 20-21% in fiscal 2024, with 15-16% growth projected in the
current fiscal.

90
Gold loan finance: NBFCs’ credit growth is estimated to have moderated to 13-15% in fiscal 2024 compared
with 16.2% CAGR between fiscals 2019 and 2023. Growth moderated in fiscal 2023 because of intense
competition from banks and mixed credit demand from the rural economy — a major market segment for gold
loan NBFCs. Credit growth is projected to grow 11-13% in fiscal 2025.
Microfinance: The microfinance industry clocked a CAGR of 17% between fiscals 2019 and 2023, with NBFC-
MFIs growing at a fast pace of 25% CAGR and capturing the market share of banks, which witnessed 11% growth
during the same period. The new regulatory framework contributed to improved financial inclusion due to higher
household income. With the increase in household income in urban and rural areas, the lenders expanded their
customer base in fiscal 2024, boosting credit growth at an estimated 25-26% for NBFC-MFIs and 23-24% for the
overall microfinance industry.
MSMEs: The first and second waves of the pandemic hit MSMEs real hard. This segment has a fundamental link
to economic activity. Corporate India’s revenue is estimated to have increased 7-9% in fiscal 2024 vis-à-vis 7-
7.5% growth for SMEs. In line with this, CRISIL MI&A Research estimates overall MSME credit growth to have
been a healthy 25-26% last fiscal and is projected to remain range bound at 24-26% this fiscal.
Real estate and corporate: The wholesale portfolios of NBFCs/HFCs are systematically being trimmed.
NBFCs/HFCs are collectively shifting their focus towards the retail business. This led to an estimated de-growth
of 4-5% in credit in fiscal 2024. CRISIL MI&A Research expects wholesale credit to further de-grow 1-3% this
fiscal, with real estate disbursement expected to pick up for a few NBFCs/HFCs.
Infrastructure (including PFC and REC): The infrastructure book of NBFCs grew 13.4% in fiscal 2023,
following a marginal growth of 2% in fiscal 2022 due to weak power demand amid the pandemic. The growth
momentum in fiscal 2023 was owing to investments in renewable power and a pickup in the transmission and
distribution (T&D) sector amid increased power demand. Book growth is estimated to have been 15-16% in fiscal
2024, driven by firm growth in power sector investments and the Revamped Distribution Sector Scheme (RDSS).
Additionally, REC has been appointed as the nodal agency to oversee the overall coordination and implementation
of the rooftop solarisation project announced in January 2024. Supported by the aforementioned factors, CRISIL
MI&A Research expects the NBFC infrastructure book to grow 15-16% in fiscal 2025.
Gradual improvement in asset quality

Source: Company reports, CRISIL MI&A Research

91
Asset quality continued to improve with strong economic activities and better collection efficiency, leading to a
reduction in gross non-performing assets (GNPA) in fiscal 2024. This was further helped by write-offs given the
comfortable capital buffers maintained by NBFCs.
Housing: In fiscal 2023, HFCs’ GNPA decreased ~100 bps as stress in the non-housing portfolios reduced owing
to the offloading of large parts of the wholesale portfolio by HFCs under the retailisation strategy, growth of
MSME businesses and stable incomes of the prime customers. According to CRISIL MI&A Research, GNPA is
estimated to have decreased 40 bps to 2.6-2.7% in fiscal 2024 as two large housing finance players wrote off
substantial portions of their real estate exposures and developers made record repayments along with continuing
retailisation strategy. GNPA is expected to improve to 2.3-2.5% in fiscal 2025.
Auto: The industry's stress levels, which peaked in fiscal 2021, returned to pre-pandemic levels with GNPA of
4.70% in March 2023. It is expected to improve further to 4-4.5% this fiscal supported by sustained
macroeconomic activity.
Gold finance: This is considered to be a safer segment from an asset quality perspective as players can improve
GNPA by auctioning gold collateral. Additionally, given the liquid nature of collateral and recent increase in gold
prices, the ultimate loss given default is expected to be modest. Gold loan NBFCs have loan to value (LTV) ratios
of 60-70%, which is a sufficient buffer for any price fluctuation. The overall GNPA increased in fiscal 2023 and
is estimated to have declined in fiscal 2024, driven by the performance of top players. Traditionally, GNPA has
been controlled via recoveries through gold auctions. However, since gold financing is an extremely customer-
centric business, gold auctions tend to be the last resort. Typically, NPAs are resolved through customer
repayments. Additionally, in case of GNPA, driven by migration of teaser loans to higher rates, further slippages
could be limited since much of the teaser loan book has already been migrated. CRISIL MI&A Research estimates
GNPA of gold loan NBFCs to have improved to 2.8-3.0% in March 2024 and is expected to moderate to 2.5-2.7%
this fiscal.
Microfinance: GNPA of the NBFC-MFI book stood at 2.90% in March 2023 after declining from a peak of 6%
in March 2022. Further, after continued decline in GNPA to 2.20% in the first half of fiscal 2024, the industry
witnessed an uptick of 20 bps taking GNPA to 2.40% as of December 2023. The increase was mainly attributed
to challenges faced by the lenders specifically in Tamil Nadu and Punjab, where collection efficiencies dropped
due to floods in both states and also loan waiver campaign in a few parts of Punjab. However, on-year, GNPA is
estimated to have moderated marginally to 2.3-2.4% in fiscal 2024 and is expected at 2.2-2.3% this fiscal.
MSME: Asset quality deteriorated in March 2021 due to Covid-19. Income of borrowers was impacted, which
worsened GNPA. However, with continued improvement in economic activity, better collection efficiency and
strong credit growth, GNPA level decreased in March 2022. In March 2023, the GNPA ratio for MSME loans
was 3.6%. Among various player groups, the asset quality is the best for private banks as of March 2023 because
they serve relatively low risk customers compared with NBFCs, which also serve customers with no documented
income. CRISIL MI&A Research estimates asset quality to have ranged 3-3.5% in fiscal 2024.
Real estate and corporate: The real estate and corporate segments experience higher stress than other segments
where NBFCs lend. In the first half of fiscal 2024, some NBFCs/HFCs performed a considerable number of
technical write-offs. However, GNPA crossed the 9% mark in fiscal 2023, ~250 bps lower on-year. CRISIL
MI&A Research estimates GNPA to have ranged 8-10% last fiscal.

Share of bank funding expected to moderate in the near to medium term for NBFCs
Bank and capital market borrowings interplay to evolve with transmission of rate hikes in a liquidity deficit
banking system

92
While the impact of risk weight circular is expected to result in increased cost of capital for NBFCs with exposure
to consumer lending segments, NBFCs rated A- and above and operating in these segments will also face the
additional impact on their borrowing cost from bank funding as banks pass on the increased cost of capital to
NBFCs. Higher lending rates by banks to NBFCs could spill over to corporate bonds through higher yields via
widening of credit spreads for NBFCs.
From a scale perspective, large NBFCs (with loan book > Rs 500 billion) have a higher capability to tap capital
markets and raise bonds and debentures for their funding requirements due to a strong market presence, larger
scale of operations and better ratings. However, after the NBFC crisis in fiscal 2019, the share of bonds in the
borrowing mix has been declining; it dropped from 52% in fiscal 2018 to 37% in fiscal 2023. Correspondingly,
the share of bank borrowings continued to increase.
With softer policy rates abroad, large NBFCs have also tapped overseas funding options through the external
commercial borrowing (ECB) route. As a result, ECBs held a 6% share in the borrowing mix in fiscal 2022
compared with 2% in fiscal 2018. However, with reversal of interest rates in fiscal 2023 and most central banks
adopting aggressive rate hikes, the share of ECBs declined to 4% end-fiscal 2023, with some NBFCs even opting
to prepay their ECB/foreign currency borrowings. Refinance from NHBs occupied a small but steady share in
large NBFCs.
Meanwhile, small and medium-sized NBFCs depend on term loans as the principal source in their borrowing mix.
In addition, the share of deposits is lower as a higher share of small and medium-sized NBFCs are non-deposit
taking. With limited access to capital markets compared with large NBFCs, impacted further during the liquidity
crisis, these NBFCs have become more dependent on banks and financial institutions for funding. Hence, the
share of term loans has increased rapidly in small and medium-sized NBFCs after the crisis. Notably, there was a
small decline in the share of bank borrowings in fiscals 2021 and 2022, when interest rates were low, capital
markets offered attractive yields and the share of bonds increased.
In addition, short-term borrowings from commercial papers (CPs) reduced across NBFCs and were replaced by
short-term loans from banks. With interest rate repricing in benchmark-linked bank borrowings, the share of CPs
could pick up if short-tenure yields normalise.
Bank funding to NBFCs is expected to moderate in the near to medium term with the impact of RBI circular and
further transmission of rate hikes accelerated by deficit liquidity in the banking system.

Banks lending to NBFCs (Rs trillion) Share of lending to NBFCs in overall bank exposure

Source: Company reports, CRISIL MI&A Research


Banks credit exposure to NBFCs is estimated to have increased 16% on-year to Rs 15.5 trillion in fiscal 2024
from Rs 13.3 trillion in fiscal 2023. On the other hand, the share of NBFCs in the overall credit exposure is
estimated to have declined to 9.4% from 9.7% during the period. The moderation was driven by a dynamic
management of banking liquidity which saw lending rates of the overall banks increase and the added impact of
the RBI’s risk weight circular. The weighted average lending rates on outstanding rupee loans for banks increased
from 8.72% in April 2022 to 9.81% in February 2024 (9.83%, if HDFC merger is excluded). Hardening in bank
lending rates in relation to other funding avenues such as domestic capital markets and ECBs could lead to further
moderation in the share of bank borrowings going forward.
Bank lending to NBFCs has almost doubled in the past 10 years. More recently, amid increasing interest rates,
term loans of banks became the preferred source of borrowing as the rates transmitted to bank lending rates with
a lag.

Note: Exposure refers to debt mutual funds
The IL&FS crisis in fiscal 2019 led to funds becoming extremely cautious towards investing in NBFCs. Exposure
declined from ~18% in fiscal 2018 to 10% in fiscal 2022, and this trend is expected to continue in the medium
term. Large NBFCs that showcased strong performance and resilience in fiscal 2022, and small and medium-sized
NBFCs to some extent, are expected to drive mutual fund investments in NBFCs going forward. This is unlike
prior to fiscal 2019, when bulk of the investments were in small and medium-sized NBFCs, which in turn
aggressively pursued growth.
Mutual funds’ exposure to NBFCs totalled Rs 1.87 trillion in 9MFY24, constituting 10.3% of the total mutual

Securitisation issuance crossed the Rs 500 billion mark in the fourth quarter, driving the total to a record high of

policy interventions, including government-backed partial credit guarantee schemes for NBFCs.

The number of originators involved in securitisation transactions increased to 165, completing ~1,100 transactions
in fiscal 2024, compared with 160 originators and ~1,000 transactions in fiscal 2023. Despite the exit of a major
HFC originator from the market, due to its merger with a bank in the second quarter of fiscal 2024, the overall
market activity surged, with the growth rate exceeding 5%. Growth adjusted for the significant HFC's volume
reached ~27%.

This trend is expected to persist as NBFCs seek to diversify their funding sources following regulatory changes
that increased risk weights for bank lending to them. Vehicle loan securitisation dominated the market share in
fiscal 2024, accounting for 43%, compared with 31% in fiscal 2023. Microfinance contributed 16%, business loan
securitisation doubled to 11% from 5%, while personal loan reached 5% from 4%. In fiscal 2025, the volume mix
is projected to shift towards these asset classes, driven by high expectations of credit growth and recent regulatory
and corporate actions impacting gold loan and mortgage securitisation.

Among investor groups, banks continued to dominate the market, with those in the private sector accounting for
41% of volume, public sector 28% and foreign 20%. Private sector and foreign banks continue to favour pass-
through certificates (PTCs), while public sector banks predominantly acquire pools via the direct assignment
route. NBFC investors accounted for 8% of the volume. The market also saw participation from other investors
such as mutual funds (in PTCs backed by secured vehicle and business loans), insurance companies (in mortgage-
backed PTCs) and alternate investment funds (in PTCs across various asset classes).

During the pandemic, NBFCs underwent a deleveraging phase as they became cautious in lending to preserve
asset quality, which constrained the growth of assets under management (AUM). As a result, gearing declined to
4.0x as of March 2023 from 5.2x as of March 2019. The decline was further supported by healthy internal accrual
post the pandemic, which was a result of pent-up credit demand and low interest rate environment. The pent-up
demand drove AUM growth, especially across higher yielding segments, which positively impacted profitability.
The low-interest environment translated into lower cost of funds (COF), resulting in higher spreads, which further
had a positive effect on profitability. Additionally, segments such as microfinance and affordable housing finance
(AHF) also saw equity infusions from impact funds and private equity funds, which further supported gearing in
their respective segments.
While gearing as of March 2023 remained below the average of 4.5x between fiscals 2020 and 2023, it provides
NBFCs a launchpad for accelerated credit growth and a cushion for any asset quality-related shocks in future.
Noting the exuberant growth of unsecured lending against the backdrop of a rising interest rate environment, RBI
introduced the risk weight circular as a deterrent to the growth of unsecured loans. As per the circular, the risk
weights of all consumers loans for both banks and NBFCs (including credit card receivables) was increased by
25%, excluding loans on housing, vehicle, education and gold. Additionally, the risk weights for exposure by
banks to NBFCs where the extant risk weight of the NBFC is below 100% was also increased by 25%.
In response, banks faced an impact of ~85 bps on capital adequacy, whereas the impact was as high as ~200-400
bps for key NBFCs operating in the consumer lending segments. Larger NBFCs rated A- and above and operating
in these segments will also face the additional impact on their borrowing cost from bank funding as capital cost
for the same increases for banks. Such an increase in COF for these NBFCs could also drive demand for
securitisation and co-lending. This could accelerate capital raises by entities for managing loan book growth,
while maintaining adequate capital buffers. In short, this could lead to higher capital requirements by the lenders.
Profitability expected to be resilient even as COF inches up

With reversal in the interest rate cycle, the yields and COF are estimated to have increased in fiscal 2023, owing
to rising interest rates. Notably, the RBI hiked the policy rate by 250 bps taking repo to 6.50% before a pause in
April 2023. This has impacted both the cost of borrowings and yields across sectors and, in turn, net interest
margins (NIMs) and return on assets (RoAs).
Historically, borrowing costs, yields and spreads have varied significantly across large, medium-sized and small
NBFCs. The NBFCs were able to better transmit the hike in interest rates to their borrowers with varying degrees
with small NBFCs hiking their yields the highest in fiscal 2023 from 2022. The small group comprised NBFCs
such as NBFC-MFIs and AHFs, which typically have better pricing power, compared with other NBFCs. There
was a marginal uptick in the costs of funds for NBFCs at various scales with the partial transmission of rate hikes
during the same period. In line with yields, small NBFCs reported the highest increase in spreads in fiscal 2023,
compared with fiscal 2022, Additionally, the gearing for large and small NBFCs declined, while increasing for
medium NBFCs in fiscal 2023, compared with fiscal 2022. With the increase in spreads and decline in gearing,
NIMs expanded by ~50 bps each for large and medium NBFCs, respectively, in fiscal 2023, compared with fiscal
2022. NIMs expanded by 30 bps for medium-scale NBFCs. Further, the extent of the impact of the RBI circular
on COF and consequently NIM will be monitorable.
RoA for large NBFCs increased in fiscal 2023 by ~40 bps against fiscal 2022, driven by expansion in NIM and
decline in credit costs. RoAs for small NBFCs declined by 190 bps in fiscal 2023, aided by high provision
writebacks and expansion in credit costs. RoA for medium NBFCs compressed ~20 bps in fiscal 2023, compared
with fiscal 2022, driven by high operating costs despite a modest decline in credit costs and expansion in NIMs.

Profitability to inch up on account of improved NIMs

100
Note: The above ratios are calculated on average total assets
Source: Company reports, CRISIL MI&A Research
Improved NIMs and controlled credit costs are the key reasons for improving or stable profitability outlook in
future. In fiscal 2023, the MFI segment, which typically has more pricing power, could improve its NIM.
Similarly, the housing segment also improved its NIM, owing to the floating nature of its loan book where it was
able to pass on the increase in rates to its customers faster. However, competition from banks and subdued credit
demand resulted in NIM compression for the gold segment.
The overall yield and COF for the retail segment are estimated to have gone up in fiscal 2023, due to increasing
interest rates. However, the amount of pass-on has been distinct across all segments on account of the level of
competition, nature of asset class and segmental credit demand.
The impact of RBI circular on risk weight circular on COF and consequently, NIM and RoA, will be a key
monitorable.
Housing: With the aggressive 250 bps repo rate hike in fiscal 2023, the yield on assets increased ~50 bps and the
weighted average COF ~20 bps, leading to margins and RoA improving to 3.3% and 1.9%, respectively. CRISIL
MI&A Research expects the yield on assets to have improved by 30 bps at 9.5% with the weighted average COF
to rise by 50 bps to 6.4%, causing the margins to fall by 10 bps at 3.2% and ROA to remain stable between 1.9%-
2.0% in fiscal 2024. The weighted average cost of borrowing is expected to marginally fall by 10 bps to 6.3% in
fiscal 2025, owing to a likely drop in the repo rate. However, the yield on assets will rise by 10 bps, due to a lag
in the transmission of rates to the final customer translating to a rangebound ROA of 1.9- 2.1%.
Gold finance: The pressure of competition on NIMs of gold loan NBFCs has been offset to some extent with the
revival of credit growth. With majority of the teaser loans having been reduced, the yields may have bottomed
out. However, at a structural level, the yields will continue to be lower than the pre-pandemic levels in the near-
to-medium term, somewhat offset by the steady credit growth at a higher rate of interest. On the other hand, the
COF is expected to inch up with further repricing of bank borrowings. Fierce competition, coupled with expansion
activities, resulted in higher advertisement and employee benefit costs, keeping the operating costs elevated.
Given the improvement in NIM, owing to the aforementioned factors, RoA is estimated to have improved to 4.8%
in fiscal 2024, compared with 4.7% in fiscal 2023, and is further expected to improve to 5.1% in fiscal 2025.
Microfinance NBFCs: NIMs improved by 140 bps in fiscal 2023 and are expected to have improved further by
~60 bps in fiscal 2024, with the increasing share of incremental portfolio having originated at higher rates post
the implementation of new regulations in fiscal 2023. The credit costs pertaining to the pandemic-related stressed
asset quality stabilised in fiscal 2023 at 2.4% from a high of 3.9% in fiscal 2021. With most of the credit costs for
stressed assets being absorbed in the past fiscals, the residual credit costs on account of these assets are expected
to be lower. Hence, credit costs are expected to have declined to 2% in fiscal 2024 and likely to reduce further to
1.8% in fiscal 2025. Overall, CRISIL MI&A Research expects the RoA to have improved to ~4.0% in fiscal 2024
and reach ~4.1% in fiscal 2025, supported by reducing credit cost and improving NIM.

The overall gold loan segment (banks and NBFCs combined) is estimated to have expanded 21-23% in fiscal
2024, trending above the 20.9% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) logged between fiscals 2019 and 2023.
While credit growth of banks in the segment is estimated to have normalised, that of NBFCs is estimated to have
recovered, leading to healthy growth in the overall segment in fiscal 2024, primarily driven by increasing gold
prices, an inherently better asset quality performance and better rates of interest.
In fiscal 2025, the overall segment is expected to grow a further 17-19%. Gold loan NBFCs will continue to lose
market share to banks amid intense competition in the segment even as their disbursements are expected to
recover. Disbursement growth is expected to continue, albeit at a normalised rate.

Source: Company reports, CRISIL MI&A Research
The firming up of gold prices in India on account of elevated inflation, a global economic slowdown, rupee
depreciation and an increase in gold import duty could support the loan-to-value (LTV) ratio of lenders. Rising
prices also create headroom for further credit growth.
The customer shift from unorganised to organised players will also support credit growth, largely because
unorganised players charge exorbitant rates of interest and provide little clarity on valuation of gold and LTV.
Also, there is no assurance that the pledged asset will be returned.
CRISIL MI&A Research believes organised financiers will see their share grow, driven by increasing gold loan
penetration in the country through geographical diversification and wider popularity of this mode of financing.
• Organised gold loan penetration in India (computed as gold stock with organised financiers divided by the
total gold stock in India) is estimated at ~7% as of March 2023, indicating significant headroom for organised
gold loan market growth. It is expected to deepen due to wider geographical diversification, a growing branch
network and increasing keenness of households to monetise their gold holdings for personal and business
needs. The increase in gold prices and expectations of micro enterprises to fund their working capital
requirements through these loans are also expected to boost gold financing growth
• According to CRISIL MI&A Research, owing to increasing awareness about the benefits of availing gold
loans from the organised segment, the share of organised gold loan financiers increased from 56-58% in fiscal

102
2017 to ~61% (in terms of value) in fiscal 2023. The trend is expected to continue and the share of organised
players is likely to improve further to ~63% in the near to medium term
The organised segment has been using digital and online platforms, along with phygital (combination of physical
and digital) modes to do business. In fact, the growing uptake under these modes is expected to be the primary
growth driver.
Market share interplay between banks and gold loan NBFCs
Banks have enjoyed a majority share in the domestic gold loan business historically. Their share increased
significantly whenever there was a major disruption in the financial markets, such as the Global Financial Crisis
of 2008, the taper tantrum of fiscal 2014 and the onset of the pandemic in fiscal 2021. Banks perceive gold as a
product with relatively better asset quality as it is a liquid collateral. Not only does it offer a higher rate of interest
but also, gold prices are likely to increase. In fiscal 2021, during the peak of the pandemic, an increase in the
regulatory cap on LTV to 90% for a year provided banks further incentives to focus on the safer gold loan segment.
After fiscal 2021, despite lowering of the regulatory cap on LTV to 75%, banks continued to grow in the segment,
as the country reeled under the impact of the second pandemic wave and subsequent reimposition of lockdowns.
The major focus of banks has been on growing the agri-gold loan book which is also given priority sector lending
(PSL) benefits.
With banks aggressively focusing on the segment, gold loan NBFCs have seen a sustained reduction in their share,
including in the last fiscal. Banks are competing in the gold loan segment by focussing on agri-gold loans, which
qualify for priority sector lending, along with offering lower interest rates to existing-to-bank (ETB) customers in
higher ticket sizes. Gold loan NBFCs compete on turnaround time (as low as 5-15 minutes), service levels and
ease of processing.
Even as NBFCs are expected to further lose market share this fiscal, the overall gold loan segment is expected to
continue to expand with banks leading credit growth, at least in the near term.

NBFCs compete on operating efficiency, turnaround time and local connect while managing risks
Despite banks having a competitive advantage by offering gold loans at a lower cost, NBFCs have been trying to
compete through aggressive branch expansion and a sharper focus on customer experience. They focus more on
the gold loan business and have, accordingly, built their service offerings by investing significantly in manpower,
systems and processes in line with customer needs. Some key features are listed below:
1. Lower turnaround time and less documentation: The borrower generally wants to get the loan disbursed
as quickly as possible. Availability of well-trained and experienced employees in assessment and valuing
gold helps NBFCs disburse loans faster than banks
2. Wider reach and better local connect: NBFCs have a wider and deeper reach geographically, especially in
rural and semi-urban regions, where the demand for gold loans is higher
3. Risk management process: Most NBFCs have put in place a comprehensive and robust risk management
process based on their experience and considering the key risks involved. These include steps to prevent
fraud, ensure safety of the gold stored and recoup losses from possible non-performing assets
Growth in NBFC gold loan disbursals moderated further in fiscal 2023, owing to increased competition from
banks and lower rural credit demand. Also, as cash flows improved following a rebound in economic activity,
borrowers began repaying the loans and redeeming their gold. However, with a recovery in rural credit demand,
expansion and optimisation of gold loan branches, credit growth is estimated to have recovered in fiscal 2024.

Looking to compete more effectively with banks and fintechs, gold loan NBFCs are expanding their reach and
customer base through focused marketing strategies, and also by increasing advertising and employee incentives.
They are also working towards ringfencing their high-value customer base (loans >Rs 2 lakh), which is targeted
by the banks, and expanding to cater to rural low-income customers. The majority of customer base of gold loan
NBFCs, though, remains stable, as banks typically cater to higher ticket sizes.
NBFC growth logged a 16% CAGR between fiscal 2019 and fiscal 2023 despite marginal growth of 5.5% in fiscal
2023. CRISIL MI&A Research estimates credit growth of gold assets under management (AUM) to have risen
13-15% in fiscal 2024 and projects growth of 11-13% in fiscal 2025 on account of branch expansion and
optimisation, expected firming up of gold prices and an increase in credit demand from the target consumer
segment of NBFCs.
The average ticket size of gold loans has been rising over the past five years, as higher gold prices have created
headroom for incremental credit due to lowering of the LTV ratio. Since the LTV ratio for NBFCs is capped at
75%, the increase in average ticket size suggests a rise in the gold loan portfolio owing to higher gold prices.
Thus, AUM growth is also led by an increase in ticket size, in addition to higher volumes.

Demand for gold loans higher in southern states
Southern states accounted for 50-55% of the overall gold loan AUM over the past five years due to the following
factors:
• Gold owners in the region have better awareness about the utility of the yellow metal as a collateral to
raise funds.
• The region has seen the origination and establishment of gold loan franchisees, which have devised
simple procedures that ensure quick loan disbursement.
• Though the south continues to dominate, several players have been shifting focus to untapped markets
in the eastern and western regions, where there are fewer branches, but they provide an incremental
growth opportunity.

Our Strengths

We are part of the Kosamattam Group which has a long operating history and a large customer base.

We are part of the Kosamattam Group, which was originally founded by Nasrani Varkey and one of the leading
business financial services group in South India. Over the years, we have been successful in expanding our
customer base. Our total number of Gold Loan customers grew to 4,75,026 as of March 31, 2022 and to 4,88,303
as of March 31, 2023 and to 5,08,178 as of March 31, 2024. We attribute our growth, in part, to our market
penetration, particularly in areas less served by organised lending institutions and the efficient and streamlined
procedural formalities which our customers need to complete in order to complete a loan transaction with us,
which makes us a preferred medium of financier for our customers. We also attribute our growth to customer
loyalty which in turn leads to repeat business. We believe that we are known for the quality of service we have
provided to our customers over the years and for our consistent approach to developing long-term relationships
with our customers, based on our local knowledge and experience amongst other things.

Branch network across rural and semi-urban areas in South India

We believe that the scale of our operational network provides us with a competitive advantage. As of June 30,
2024, our Company’s operations included 987 branch offices spread across 8 states and 1 union territory. We
commenced our operations in rural areas and small towns and have followed an approach of targeting geographies
with low credit penetration. We have expanded our branch network by opening 10 branch offices in Delhi,1 branch
office in Uttar Pradesh and 8 branch offices in Maharashtra. Our customers are typically retail customers,
businessmen, vendors, traders, farmers, salaried individuals and families, who for reasons of convenience,
accessibility or necessity, avail of our credit facilities by pledging their gold jewellery with us. Our understanding
of the local characteristics of markets has allowed us to address the unique needs of our customers and enabled us
to penetrate deeper into such markets.

Over the years, we have focused on customers in such markets that offer us significant growth opportunities and
customer loyalty. We believe that with such a large network specifically with semi-urban areas, we were able to
penetrate and cater to our customers across various cities and towns in south India especially in semi-urban
locations. Having such a network enables us to service and support our existing customers from proximate

111
locations which gives our customers easy access to our services and enables us to reach new customers especially
potential rural customers. We believe we can leverage on this existing network for further expansion and for
fulfilling our customer requirements.

Organised and efficient IT Infrastructure

We use information technology as a strategic tool for our business operations to improve our overall productivity
and efficiency. All our branches are computerised. We believe that through our existing information technology
systems, we are able to effectively, manage our operations, market to our target customers, and monitor and
control risks. We believe that this system has improved customer service by reducing transaction time and has
allowed us to comply with regulatory record-keeping and reporting requirements. Further, in order to manage our
expanding operations as well as our increased customer base, we have entered into an arrangement for the
development of software for our product offerings and other allied functions. Accordingly, the new software was
introduced for operational efficiency.

Additionally, our Company has entered into an agreement dated September 15, 2016, with PayU Payments Private
Limited (“PayU”), a payment gateway, with a view to provide our customers with a convenient option of online
payments through the internet or through the interactive voice responsive (‘IVR’) system provided by PayU, using
credit/debit cards, net banking and various other modes of payment options.

Effective risk management system including appraisal, internal audit and inspections.

Risk management forms an integral part of our business as we are exposed to various risks relating to the Gold
Loan business. The objective of our risk management system is to measure and monitor the various risks we are
subject to and to implement policies and procedures to address such risks. We have an internal audit system which
consists of audit and inspection, for risk assessment and internal controls. The audit system comprises of accounts
audit and gold appraisal. In accordance with our internal audit policy, all of our branches are subject to surprise
gold audit every month and accounts audit once in very four months. A majority of our customers are borrowers
who have been referred to us by existing or former customers and our branches act as a single point of contact for
them. The personnel at our branches are responsible for sourcing loans, carrying out preliminary checks on the
credit worthiness of a prospective customer, providing assistance in documentation, disbursing loans and in
monitoring repayments and collections. We have implemented an analytics platform with a pre-defined approval
matrix, which expedites the processing of loan applications. Further the staff is strictly advised to make the acid
test, sound test etc., at the time of making the pledge for checking whether the ornament is of acceptable quality
or not.

Experienced management team and skilled personnel

Our Board, Promoters and senior management is composed of experienced professional, and management
professionals. We believe that we have a strong senior management team to lead us, a majority of whose members
have been with us for over 5 years. Our management team comprises of our Promoter and Director, Mathew K.
Cherian, who has over 40 years of experience in finance business. The management team possesses the required
skill, expertise and vision to continue and to expand the business of our Company. Our management team has an
in-depth understanding of the gold loan business and under their direction and guidance our Company has grown
organically. We believe that the long-standing industry experience of our Promoters and our management team
provides us with an understanding of the needs and behaviour of the client’s particularly in rural and semi-urban
areas and issues specific to the gold financing industry in India. We believe that this expertise gives us a
competitive advantage in the gold loan industry and has helped us in maintaining our resilience through industry
cycles.

Our Strategy

Our business strategy is designed to capitalise on our competitive strengths and enhance our position in the Gold
Loan industry. Key elements of our strategy include:

Expansion of business activity by opening new branches in rural and semi urban areas to tap potential market
for gold loans.

We intend to continue to grow our loan portfolio by expanding our branch network by opening new branches. A
good reach to customers is very important in our business. Increased revenue, profitability and visibility are the

112
factors that drive the branch network. Currently, we are present in key locations which are predominantly in South
India for sourcing business. Our strategy for branch expansion includes further strengthening our presence in
south Indian states by providing higher accessibility to customers as well as leveraging our expertise and presence
in southern India. At the core of our branch expansion strategy, we expect to penetrate new markets and expand
our customer base in rural and semi-urban markets where a large portion of the population has limited access to
credit either because they do not meet the eligibility requirements of banks or financial institutions, or because
credit is not available in a timely manner at reasonable rates of interest, or at all. We plan to continue to focus on
low and middle income self employed customers and increase the market share of our existing products in the
rural and semi-urban markets of India. A large segment of India’s rural and semiurban population is comprising
customers without any credit history and we believe that such customer segment offers us significant growth
opportunities and customer loyalty. A typical Gold Loan customer expects high loan-to-value ratios, rapid and
accurate appraisals, easy access, quick approval and disbursement and safekeeping of their pledged gold jewellery.
We believe that we meet these criteria when compared to other unregulated money lenders, and thus our focus is
to expand our Gold Loan business.

Expansion of business into metros and select Tier 1 cities across India

In addition to our continuing focus on rural and semi-urban markets in the states that we are present, we are also
focusing on opening branches in metros and select Tier 1 cities where we believe our business has high growth
potential. We carefully assess the market, location and proximity to target customers when selecting branch sites
to ensure that our branches are set up close to our target customers. We believe specialised teams focused on
specific customer segments into metros and select Tier 1 cities across India will enable us to increase the
productivity of our distribution channels, meet specific customer segments and increase quality of customer
experience. This will also help us to increase our customer base and increase our profitability. We believe our
customers appreciate this convenience and it enables us to reach new customers.

Increase visibility of Kosamattam Brand to attract new customers

Our brand is key to the growth of our business. We started focusing on brand building exercise in 2013. Our logo
was re-designed and the tag- line ‘Trust grows with time’ was introduced. We believe that we have built a
recognisable brand in the rural and semi-urban markets of India, particularly in the southern states of Kerala,
Tamil Nadu and Karnataka. We believe that having a strong recognizable brand is a key attribute in our business,
which helps us attract and retain customers, increases customer confidence and influences their investment
decisions. We intend to continue to undertake initiatives to increase the strength and recall of our ‘Kosamattam’
brand to attract new customers. We seek to build our brand by engaging with existing and potential customers’
through customer literacy programs, sponsor popular events in the regions we operate and advertise in
newspapers, hoardings, television, radio and in other advertising media.

Minimise concentration risk by diversifying the product portfolio and expanding our customer base.

We intend to further improve the diversity of our product portfolio to cater to the various financial needs of our
customers and increase the share of income derived from sale of financial products and services.

Beyond our existing Gold Loan product, we intend to leverage our brand and office network, develop
complementary business lines and become the preferred provider of financial products – ‘a one-stop shop for
customers’ financial needs.

Our diverse revenue stream will reduce our dependence on any particular product line thus enabling us to spread
and mitigate our risk exposure to any particular industry, business, geography, or customer segment. Offering a
wide range of products helps us to attract more customers thereby increasing our scale of operations.

We expect that complementary business lines will allow us to offer new products to existing customers while
attracting new customers as well. We expect that our knowledge of local markets will allow us to diversify into
products desired by our customers, differentiating us from our competitors.

Further strengthen our risk management, loan appraisal and technology systems

We believe risk management is a crucial element for further expansion of our Gold Loan business. We therefore
continuously focus on improving our integrated risk management framework with processes for identifying,
measuring, monitoring, reporting and mitigating key risks, including credit risk, appraisal risk, custodial risk,

113
market risk and operational risk. We plan to continue to adapt our risk management procedures, to take account
of trends we have identified. We believe that prudent risk management policies and development of tailored credit
procedures will allow us to expand our Gold Loan financing business without significantly increasing our non-
performing assets. Since we plan to expand our geographic reach as well as our scale of operations, we intend to
further develop and strengthen our technology platform to support our growth and improve the quality of our
services. We are focused on improving our comprehensive knowledge base and customer profile and support
systems, which in turn will assist us in the expansion of our business.

We continue to focus on developing and strengthening our IT capabilities to support our growth and improve the
quality of our services. We believe that improving our technology infrastructure will allow us to respond to
challenges on a real-time basis and improve our risks management capabilities. We also intend to develop data-
driven insights to understand our target customers’ propensity towards certain financial products. We anticipate
using such information to conduct targeted marketing efforts allowing us to improve the availability of our
products and consequently the quality of our services and credit portfolio.

ORGANISATION STRUCTURE

GOLD LOAN BUSINESS

Our lending business is primarily Gold Loans, which are typically loans against pledge of gold jewellery. As of
March 31, 2024, we had approximately 9,16,040 loan accounts, representing an aggregate principal balance of
₹4,88,665.31 lakhs. For the financial years ended March 31, 2024, March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022, our Gold
Loan portfolio yield representing interest income on gold loans as a percentage of average outstanding of Gold
Loans, for the same period were 17.67%, 18.47%, and 17.70%, respectively, per annum. For the financial years
ended March 31, 2023, March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2021, income from interest earned on our Gold Loans
constituted 96.00%, 96.82%, and 96.38%, of our total income for the respective years. We offer variety of Gold
Loan schemes to our customers to suit their individual needs. The schemes differ in relation to the amount
advanced per gram of gold, interest rate chargeable and amount of loan.

The principal form of security that we accept is household gold jewellery. We do not accept bullion, gold biscuits,
gold bars, new mass-produced gold jewellery or medallions. While these restrictions narrow the pool of assets
that may be provided to us as security, we believe that it provides us with the following key advantages:

a. It filters out spurious jewellery that may be pledged by jewellers and goldsmiths. We find that household,
used jewellery is less likely to be spurious or fake.

b. The emotional value attached by each household to the pledged jewellery acts as a strong incentive for timely
repayment of loans and revoking the pledge.

c. As we only accept the pledge of household jewellery, the value of the pledged gold is typically only as much
as the worth of gold that is owned by an average Indian household. This prevents our exposure to large sized
loans where the chances of default and subsequent losses are high.

The amount that we finance against the pledged gold jewellery is typically based on a fixed rate per gram of gold
content in the jewellery. We value the gold jewellery brought by customers based on our corporate policies and
guidelines. As per the policy, we grant gold loans on 22 Carat gold ornaments. However, in case the jewels that
are being pledged are less than 22 carats, the branches are required to convert the carat of gold jewels to the
equivalent of 22 carats. Under no-circumstances are gold ornaments below 19 carats accepted by our Company.
The rates per gram is fixed by us on weekly intervals. The actual loan amount varies according to the type of
jewellery pledged. While jewellery can be appraised based on a variety of factors, such as total weight, weight of
gold content, production cost, style, brand and value of any gemstones, we appraise the gold jewellery solely
based on its gold content. Our Gold Loans are, therefore, generally well collateralised because the actual value of

115
the gold jewellery is higher than our appraised value of the gold jewellery when the loan is disbursed. The amount
we lend against an item and the total value of the pledged gold we hold fluctuates according to the market price
of gold. An increase in the price of gold will not automatically result in an increase in the value of our Gold Loan
portfolio unless the rate per gram is revised by our Registered Office. It only results in a favourable movement in
the value of the security, pledged with us. Similarly, since adequate margins are built in at the time of the loan
disbursement and owing to the short tenure of these loans, on average, a decrease in the price of gold generally
has little impact on our interest income. However, a sustained decrease in the market price of gold could cause a
decrease in the growth rate of Gold Loans in our loan portfolio.

At present our Gold Loans have a maximum tenure of upto 12 months, however, customers may redeem the loan
at any time prior to the full tenure. As per the current policy of our Company, interest is to be paid in accordance
with the scheme. In the event that a loan is not repaid on time and after providing due notice to the customer, the
unredeemed pledged gold is disposed of, on behalf of the customer in satisfaction of the principal and interest
charges in accordance with the applicable RBI guidelines. Any surplus arising out of the disposal of the pledged
gold is refunded to the customer or is appropriated towards any other liability by the borrower. In the event that
the recoverable amount is more than the realisable value of the pledged gold, the customer remains liable for the
shortfall.

The processes involved in approving and disbursing a Gold Loan are divided into three phases:

• Pre-disbursement;
• Post disbursement; and
• Release of the pledge.

Pre-disbursement process

Gold Loan appraisal of a customer involves the following steps

a) Customer identification

Gold Loans are sanctioned only to genuine borrowers. Before sanctioning the Gold Loan, the branch manager
should take all precautions to ensure that the applicant, pledging the ornaments, is the owner of those ornaments
and that the borrower is genuine. The branch manager should obtain ID proof, photograph of the borrower, and
assign a branch KYC ID No. and should also make reasonable enquiry about the residence, job, personal details,
ownership of the ornaments etc. and make a note in the pledge form. We also undertake a field verification to
authenticate the genuineness of the borrower in case of high value Gold Loans.

b) KYC Documentation

The borrower should produce government issued valid photo id, with an address which is within the designated
area of the branch, as a necessary proof for KYC documentation. While processing the application, the branch
ensures that the correct postal address of the borrower is entered in the computer such as name, door number,
street name, name of post office, place, PIN code and the nearest land mark. Also, the borrower’s telephone
number is obtained. The branch also calls on the number furnished by the borrower every month, and reminds the
borrower to remit the requisite interest, so that branch can know the telephone number is operational. Further if
the telephone number of the borrower is not operational then the branch immediately contacts the borrower
personally and obtains his new telephone number.

c) Security appraisal

The branch manager/joint custodian and the branch staff shall appraise the gold ornaments thoroughly. Stone
weight should be deducted correctly in consultation with the branch manager and staff. Low purity and spurious
items should be detected and not to be accepted as pledge. Appraisal is to be done by all members at the branch
and the ornament shall be accepted only if all the branch staff approve. Neither the branch manager nor the joint
custodian or any staff has the authority to accept a pledge on the basis of his/her own assessment of the ornaments.
It is strictly a group task and all the branch staff are equally responsible in the process. After pledging gold
ornaments, the same should be packed immediately. The manager and joint custodian should sign across the
packet and affix the branch sticker on the cover and keep it in the safe. The safe is to be locked by all the custodians
together.

116
d) Documentation

For each pledge of the gold, branch appraisal certificate, application for personal loan, customer’s token etc., are
adequately documented and all the details pertaining to the gold, including the weight and items pledged are to be
mentioned.

Post-disbursement process

The period/tenure for a Gold Loans is maximum upto 12 months. Timely interest collection and closing of
accounts within the specified period is vital for the successful and smooth functioning of gold loan companies
like that of ours. To ensure this, the branches regularly follow up with their gold loan customers through notices
served at three months (ordinary notice), six-months (registered notice), and nine months (registered notice with
acknowledgement due) as well as personal contacts directly and over the phone.

Branch security and safety measures: Electronic Security System

Branches are normally equipped with security devices (alarms) which automatically alert the branch manager,
regional manager as well as the nearest police station in the event of any theft attempts. The gold pledged as
security is insured with an insurance company. Our Company makes periodic analysis and revises the insurance
policy as per the value/quantity of the gold.

Release of pledge

Once a loan is fully repaid, the pledged gold jewellery is returned to the customer. The customer must be present
personally along with the gold loan token, at the branch where the pledge was originally made. The branch will
verify the person with the photo taken at the time of pledge and confirm that there is no foul play and the amount
to be paid is informed to the customer from the software and clarifies doubts if any on the amount demanded. The
customer pays the amount at the cash counter and the ornaments are taken out of the safe and handed over to the
customer after confirming them with the list of ornaments mentioned in the token and gold loan application form.

Our Other Business initiatives

In addition to the core business of Gold Loan, we also offer fee based ancillary services which include loans
against property, money transfer services, depository participant services, power generation, agriculture, foreign
currency exchange and air ticketing services.

For the financial years ended March 31, 2024, March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022, revenues from our business
other than Gold Loans constituted 4.00%, 3.18%, and 3.62% of our total income for the respective years.

LOAN AGAINST PROPERTY

Our Company along with its primary business of offering gold loans also engages in offering loans against
property which includes loans against collateral of residential/commercial property and comprised 1% of our loan
book as on March 31, 2024.

Loan against Property (“LAP”) is a loan facility to customers requiring funds for business/personal purposes
against mortgage of residential/commercial property. As a part of LAP lease rental discounting is also offered.
The funds so raised are utilised for meeting business as well as investment needs.

Customer Evaluation, Credit Appraisal and Disbursement

Our Credit Policies

All loans are sanctioned under the credit policy approved by our Board of Directors. Emphasis is applied on
demonstrated past and future assessment of income, repayment capacity and credit history prior to approving any
loan. Our Company undertakes periodic update of credit policies based on portfolio performance, product
profitability and market and economic development.

Loan Origination

117
Our Company sources all potential customers through our branches and trained sourcing teams.

Evaluation

Our Company undertakes various credit control checks and field investigations on a prospective customer which,
inter-alia, includes an internal data de-duplication check, CIBIL database check, fraud verification, asset
verification and valuation, trade credit reference checks and other legal and technical verification procedures.
After having completed our internal verification procedures all documents submitted by the prospective customer
are checked and verified as required and any discrepancies and/or gaps in such documentation are highlighted and
sent to the prospective customer for corrections, explanations and resubmissions as required.

Our Company conducts various diligence procedures in connection with the collateral/security for such loans
which include review and verification of the relevant ownership documents and obtain title reports as applicable.
Reports from these checks along with detailed analysis of financial statements, tax challans, bank statements and
other documents put together constitute the credit file for all customers. These files are at length reviewed by the
credit managers for evaluation using credit evaluation tool. Based on the document review the credit managers
conduct personal discussions with the customers at their workplace. The discussion is intended to gather
information about the business model of the customer, his positioning in the value chain, dependence of suppliers
and/or customers and to ascertain any business risks like export dependence, raw-material supplies, etc. which
might adversely impact the business cash flows and hence diminish repayment capacity. Further, additional
business documents like stock registers and books of accounts are reviewed during such visits. Based on the all
the information gathered, and assessment of customer’s business risks, debt servicing ability and collateral risks,
the credit manager puts the transaction proposal to appropriate approving committee in the hierarchy for decision.

Credit Appraisal

Approval and Disbursement Process

Once the credit history, credentials, information, and documents have been submitted by the prospective customer
and verified to our satisfaction, the applications are approved at the appropriate credit approval level.

There are four progressive levels of approvals which a proposal can be put to which are based on loan product,
loam amount and identified risks. All proposals require minimum of two approvals and up to four approvals for
larger ticker size loans. With due sanctioning of the loan, we execute agreements in connection with the loan and
creation of security in relation thereto, if any, with the customer. Margin money and other charges, if any, are
collected prior to loan disbursements. The disbursing officer retains evidence of the applicant’s acceptance of the
terms and conditions of the loan as part of the loan documentation.

Prior to the loan disbursement, our concerned officer ensures that a Know Your Customer, (“KYC”), checklist is
completed by the applicant. The concerned officer verifies such information provided and includes the records in
the relevant loan file. The officer is also required to ensure that the contents of the loan documents are explained
in detail to the customer either in English or in the local language of the customer. The customer is provided with
a copy of the loan documents executed by him. Further although our customers have the option of making
payments by cash or cheque, we may require the applicant to submit post-dated cheques covering an initial period
prior to any loan disbursement.

Loan administration and monitoring.

The customer (and guarantor, if any) execute(s) the security creation documents and the loan agreement setting
out the terms of the loan. A loan repayment schedule is attached as a schedule to the loan agreement, which
generally sets out periodical repayment terms. Repayments are made in periodical instalments. Loans disbursed
are recovered from the customer in accordance with the loan terms and conditions agreed with the customer. We
track loan repayment schedules of our customers on a monthly basis, based on the outstanding tenure of the loans,
the number of instalments due and defaults committed, if any. This data is analysed based on the loans disbursed
and location of the customer. All recovery of amounts due on loans is managed internally by us. We ensure
complete focus on all stages of the collections process. We monitor the completeness of documentation, creation
of security etc. through regular visits to the business outlets by our regional as well as head office executives and
internal auditors. All customer accounts are reviewed on a regular basis.

118
Our Company believes that close monitoring of debt servicing efficiency enables us to maintain high recovery
ratios and maintain satisfactory asset quality.

MICROFINANCE

Our microfinance operations entail providing micro credit lending to our customers who are predominantly
located in rural and semi-urban areas of our targeted geographies in India and the purpose of loans sanctioned to
them is mainly for utilisation in small businesses or for other income generating activities but not for personal
consumption. Primarily, we utilise a village centred, group lending model to provide unsecured loans to our
members. This model relies on a form of ‘social collateral’ and ensures credit discipline through peer support
within the group. This model presupposes our members being prudent in conducting their financial affairs and
prompt in repaying their outstanding borrowings. As a deterrent, any instance of failure to make timely loan
repayments by an individual borrower prevents the other members in the group from making any further
borrowings from us, in the future. Therefore, the KFLs tend to employ peer support to encourage the delinquent
borrower to make timely repayments or often repay on behalf of a defaulting borrower, effectively providing an
informal joint guarantee on the sanctioned loan.

PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT, COLLECTION AND RECOVERY PROCESSES

Our Company manages the portfolio management and collection processes in-house. We have on-roll collection
personnel across branches to ensure timely collection of dues. As part of our collection process we have tele-
calling through which calls to all customers are made before the due-dates. In-case of non-payment the team
initiates collection calling for dues. We utilise our branch personnel for collection of payment. Further, for
effective recovery management, all early delinquent customers are management by a dedicated team which
undertakes methodical customer visits for recovery of dues. In cases where customers are unable to make
payments and move to higher delinquency levels, a specified team of collection officers including branch
managers, regional managers and other such officials are deployed who manage deep delinquent accounts. In
addition to customer visits, this team utilises available legal tools for attachment of properties, for re-payment of
dues and legal arbitration proceedings.

INSURANCE AGENCY

With a view to expand our regular fee and commission based income, Company had obtained a certificate of
renewal registration from the IRDA, dated March 28, 2022, which is valid up to March 31, 2025, to
commence/carry business in the capacity of a Corporate Agent (Composite) under the Insurance Regulatory and
Development Authority Act, 1999.

MONEY TRANSFER BUSINESS

Money transfer to India is a fast, simple and convenient method to transfer money from anywhere in the world.
We have entered into agreements with various companies who act as agents/representatives to companies that
undertake money transfer services in India (“Agreements”). These agents have their country wide network of
branches and sub agents in India. For example, we entered into a sub representation agreement with EBIX Money
Express Private Limited (“EBIX”) to act in the capacity of a sub representative to offer money transfer service on
EBIX’s behalf.

Our Company, pursuant to these Agreements, acts as sub agent and provides money transfer service payments
through its identified branches to the customers/beneficiaries in full without any deduction as per the transaction.
The representatives reimburse to our Company for the total payments effected. Under these Agreements, we are
also entitled to receive a commission for the services provided.

Our Board in its meeting dated January 5, 2017 adopted an operational manual for the Money Transfer Service
Scheme (“MTSS”), in accordance with the guidelines prescribed by the RBI, to set out requirements, rules and
guidelines to be followed, by our Company’s branches engaged in the Money Transfer Business.

MONEY CHANGING BUSINESS

Our Company holds a FFMC license and carries on money changing activities through its branches authorised by
RBI. As on June 30, 2024, we had 1 head office and 61 authorised branches. Our currency operations include sale
and purchase of foreign exchange at different authorised branches.

Marketing, Sales, and Customer Care

Our Company undertakes publicity through media, both print and electronic to increase the visibility of our brand.
Our media plan ensures the visibility and reach of our Kosamattam brand within the desired budget. These
advertisements are carried out across various states wherever our Company has presence. This helps individual

120
branches to target the public and thereby generate business from the locality. For the financial years ended March

and ₹ 543.92 lakhs, respectively.

In promoting our brand, our advertisement campaigns focus on “Kosamattam Gold Loan”, to differentiate our
loan products from other NBFCs and financial institutions and emphasise the convenience, accessibility, and
expediency of Gold Loans.

Risk Management

Risk management forms an integral part of our business as we are exposed to various risks relating to the Gold
Loan business. The objective of our risk management systems is to measure and monitor the various risks, we are
subject to and to implement policies and procedures to address such risks suitably. We intend to continue to
improve our operating processes and risk management systems which will further enhance our ability to manage
the risks inherent to our business.

Asset and Liability Management (“ALM”)

Our business operations require steady flow of working capital and hence managing the day-to-day liquidity
becomes a critical function. The ALM, amongst other functions, is concerned with risk management, providing a
comprehensive as well as a dynamic framework for measuring, monitoring and managing liquidity and interest
rate risk. The ALM function also alters the asset-liability portfolio in order to manage risks. The ALM also
monitors interest rate sensitivity in our portfolio and takes pre-emptive steps to mitigate any potential liquidity
and interest rate risks.

Credit Risk

Credit risk is the possibility of loss due to the failure of any counterparty abiding by the terms and conditions of
any financial contract with us. We aim to reduce the aforesaid credit risk through a rigorous loan approval and
collateral appraisal process, as well as a strong NPA monitoring and collection strategy. This risk is diminished
because the gold jewellery used as collateral for our loans can be readily liquidated, and there is only a remote
possibility of recovering less than the amounts due to us in light of the 25 % margin retained on the value of the
gold jewellery collateral. However, a sustained decrease in the market price of gold can cause a decrease in the
size of our loan portfolio and our interest income.

Operational Risk

Operational risk is broadly defined as the risk of direct or indirect loss due to the failure of systems, people or
processes, or due to certain other external events. We have instituted a series of checks and balances, including
an operating manual, and both internal and external audit reviews. Although we disburse loans in a relatively short
period of time, we have clearly defined appraisal methods as well as KYC compliance procedures in place to
mitigate operational risks. Any loss on account of failure by employees to comply with defined appraisal
mechanism is recovered out of their variable incentive. We also have detailed guidelines on movement and
security measures of cash or gold. We are in the process of introducing centralised software which automates inter
branch transactions, enabling branches to be monitored centrally and thus reducing the risk of un-reconciled
entries. In addition, we are in the process of installing surveillance cameras across our various branches and
subscribe to insurance to cover employee theft or fraud and burglary. Our internal audit department and our
centralised monitoring systems assist in the management of operational risk.

Financial Risk

Our business is cash intensive and requires substantial funds, on an ongoing basis to finance the gold loan portfolio
and to grow it. Any disruption in the funding sources might have an adverse effect on our liquidity and financial
condition. Our Company is proactively pursuing a system of identifying and accessing newer and cheaper sources
of funds, to finance the loan book and to grow the business. Our Asset Liability Committee meets regularly and
reviews the liquidity position of our Company and ensures availability of sufficient funding in advance.

Market Risk

121
Market risk refers to potential losses arising from the movement in market values of interest rates in our business.
The objective of market risk management is to avoid excessive exposure of our earnings to loss. The majority of
our borrowings, and all the loans we make, are at fixed rates of interest. Thus, presently, our interest rate risk is
minimal.

Our Risk Management Policy

In order to address the risks that are inherent to our business, we have developed a risk management architecture
that includes a risk management committee, internal audit department, vigilance department and a risk
management department. Our Risk Management Committee, which is led by one of our Directors, oversees our
risk management policies, which help us to identify, measure, monitor and mitigate the various risks that we face
in our businesses.

Internal Audit Department

Our internal audit department assists in the management of operational risk using our centralised monitoring
systems. Separate divisions of our internal audit department are in place to handle the audit of the departments of
the registered office and those of the branch offices. The audits of our branches are divided into two categories:
(i) Audit and (ii) Inspection. Branch audit is carried out quarterly with the focus on the verification of documents,
accounts, performance and compliance. In addition, an incremental high value loan check is carried out by regional
managers as part of their periodical branch inspection.

Vigilance Department

We have an internal vigilance department for undertaking surprise inspections of high/medium risk branches and
other branches or on the basis of any report or detection of serious deviations or irregularities. The vigilance
undertakes the responsibility of visiting branches to oversee the implementation of risk mitigation initiatives and
improvements in customer service.

Risk Management Audit

Our branch auditors also carry out a system driven risk audit on certain identified key risk parameters. These are
keyed into the system and alerts are sent to branch controllers and top management in case the risk weight given
under a specific parameter goes beyond the prefixed tolerance levels. In all such cases, the concerned branches
are inspected by the branch controllers or top management personnel depending on the severity of risk and
immediate remedial actions are initiated.

ALM Organisation

The Asset - Liability Committee (ALCO) is responsible for ensuring adherence to the limits set by the Board as
well as for deciding the business strategy of our Company (on the assets and liabilities sides) in line with our
Company’s budget and decided risk management objectives.

The business and risk management strategy of our Company will ensure that our Company operates within the
limits/parameters set by the Board. The business issues that an ALCO would consider, inter alia, includes product
pricing, desired maturity profile and mix of the incremental assets and liabilities, prevailing interest rates offered
by other peer NBFCs for the similar services/product, etc. In addition to monitoring the risk levels of our
Company, the ALCO reviews the results of and progress in implementation of the decisions made in the previous
meetings. The ALCO would also articulate the current interest rate view of our Company and base its decisions
for future business strategy on this view.

The frequency of holding ALCO meetings will be quarterly.

Liquidity Risk Management

Our ALCO measures not only the liquidity position of our Company on an ongoing basis but also examines how
liquidity requirements are likely to evolve under different assumptions. Experience shows that assets commonly
considered as liquid, like Government securities and other money market instruments, could also become illiquid
when the market and players are unidirectional. Therefore, liquidity has to be tracked through maturity or cash
flow mismatches. For measuring and managing net funding requirements, the use of a maturity ladder and

122
calculation of cumulative surplus or deficit of funds at selected maturity dates is adopted as a standard tool. The
format of the Statement of Structural Liquidity as prescribed by RBI may be used for this purpose.

The Maturity Profile based on ALM – II could be used for measuring the future cash flows of company in different
time buckets. The time buckets may be distributed as under:

(i) 1 day to 7 days


(ii) 8 days to 14 days
(iii) 15 days to 1 month
(iv) Over one month and up to 2 months
(v) Over 2 months and up to 3 months
(vi) Over 3 months and up to 6 months
(vii) Over 6 months and up to 1 year
(viii) Over 1 year and up to 3 years
(ix) Over 3 years and up to 5 years
(x) Over 5 years

The Statement of Structural Liquidity shall be prepared by placing all cash inflows and outflows in the maturity
ladder according to the expected timing of cash flows. A maturing liability will be a cash outflow while a maturing
asset will be a cash inflow. While determining the likely cash inflows/outflows, company will have to make a
number of assumptions according to their asset - liability profiles. While determining the tolerance levels, the
company may take into account all relevant factors based on their asset-liability base, nature of business, future
strategy, etc.

In order to enable the company to monitor their short-term liquidity on a dynamic basis over a time horizon
spanning from 1 day to 6 months, company will estimate their short-term liquidity profiles on the basis of business
projections and other commitments for planning purposes. An indicative format ALM – I issued by RBI for
estimating ‘Short-term Dynamic Liquidity’ will be used for the said purpose.

Interest Rate Risk (IRR)

The operational flexibility given to NBFCs in pricing most of the assets and liabilities imply the need for the
financial system to hedge the Interest Rate Risk. Interest Rate Risk is the risk where changes in market interest
rates might adversely affect an NBFC's financial condition. The changes in interest rates affect our Company. The
immediate impact of changes in interest rates is on our Company’s earnings (i.e. reported profits) by changing its
Net Interest Income (NII). As such our Company is into funding of loans which are always fixed rate loans. The
company manages risk on NII by pricing its loan products to customers at a rate which covers Interest Rate Risk.
The risk from the earnings perspective can be measured as changes in the NII or Net Interest Margin (NIM).
Measurement of such risk is done at the time of deciding rates to be offered to customers. Once interest rate risk
is measured by the ALCO, lending rates are finalised. RBI has prescribed ALM – III for the purpose of Interest
Rate Risk Monitoring and our Company may use the same for the purpose of measurement and monitoring of
interest rate risk.

Non-performing Assets (NPA)

The RBI Master Directions require that every non-deposit taking NBFC shall, after 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:

i. Standard assets;

ii. Sub-standard assets;

iii. Doubtful assets; and

iv. Loss assets.

Further, the class of assets referred to above shall not be upgraded merely as a result of rescheduling, unless it
satisfies the conditions required for an upgrade. A non-deposit taking NBFC is required to make provisions against

123
sub-standard assets, doubtful assets, and loss assets in accordance with the Master Directions. In terms of the
Master Directions, non-deposit taking NBFC has to make the following provisions on their loan portfolio.

NPA Management Policy

Our Company has put in place a gold loan monitoring, follow-up and disposal mechanism. Our Gold Loans have
a maximum tenure of upto 12 months, however, customers may redeem the loan at any time prior to the full
tenure. In the case of non-repayment, i.e., within a period of nine or 12 months, as applicable, from the date of
pledging, the asset will be disposed of by our Company after the expiry of either nine or twelve months and 15
days of grace, by sale through public auction. Our Company may also consider settlement of loan dues by way of
concessions in interest as a one –time settlement on a case to case basis only with the approval of registered office.
The auction procedure shall be transparent. And prior notice will be given to customer by Registered Post/Courier
informing about the auction. The auction shall be announced to the public by issuing advertisements in at least
two newspapers, one in vernacular language and another in national daily newspaper, describing the date of
auction, venue of auction, and the details of gold etc. Auction will be conducted by an approved auctioneer
appointed by the Board of Directors of our Company. The amount due to our Company by the customer, being
the aggregate of the principal and up to the date of interest as well as other expenses like expenses for conducting
auction, will be adjusted against the sale proceeds, whereas the surplus, if any available, will be refunded to the
customer, and deficit if any shall have to be paid by him/her. Our Company or its associate concerns will not
participate in the auction.

Appointment of an Auctioneer

As per the revised RBI guidelines, our Company or its Promoters cannot participate in the auction. Qualified and
experienced auctioneers are to be appointed by our Company to carry out the auction on behalf of the company.

Capital Adequacy Ratio

As per the Master Directions, every NBFC-ML including us are subject to capital adequacy requirements.
Currently, we are required to maintain a minimum capital ratio consisting of Tier I and Tier II capital which shall
not be less than 15% of its aggregate risk weighted assets on balance sheet and of risk adjusted value of off-
balance sheet items. Further, we need to maintain a Tier I capital of 12%. Also, the total of Tier II capital, at any
point of time, shall not exceed one hundred percent of Tier I capital. Additionally, we are required to transfer up
to 20% of our annual profit to a reserve fund and make provisions for NPAs. We had a capital adequacy ratio of
18.42%, 17.71% and 18.65% on March 31, 2024, March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022, respectively.

We have satisfied the minimum capital adequacy ratios prescribed by the RBI for the financial year ended March
31, 2024.

Technology

We use information technology as a strategic tool for our business operations to improve our overall productivity
and efficiency. We believe that through our information systems which are currently in place, we are able to
manage our operations efficiently, market effectively to our target customers, and effectively monitor and control
risks.

We believe that this system has improved customer service by reducing transaction time and has allowed us to
manage loan collection efforts better and to comply with regulatory record-keeping and reporting requirements.
All our branches are computerised. A need was felt for a centralised IT platform for our continued aggressive
growth along with risk management. Accordingly, we are in the process of introducing new software to improve
the operational efficiency.

Our Borrowings and Credit Ratings

Source of funding

Please refer to sections titled “Financial Statements” and “Financial Indebtedness” on pages 143 and 145.

124
We have depended on working capital limits from bank and issuance of secured and unsecured non-convertible

Security threats and measures taken to mitigate them

The principal security risks to our operations are robbery and employee theft or fraud. We have extensive security
and surveillance systems and dedicated security personnel to counter external security threats. To mitigate internal
threats, we undertake careful pre-employment screening, including obtaining references before appointment. We
also started installing surveillance cameras across our branches. To protect against robbery, all branch employees
work behind wooden, glass and steel counters, and the back office, strong room/safe and computer areas are

125
locked and closed to customers. We also keep the pledged gold in joint custody. While we provide around the
clock armed security guards for risk prone branches, the majority of our branches do not require security guards
as the gold jewellery are stored securely in strong rooms. Since we handle high volumes of cash and gold jewellery
at our locations, daily monitoring, spot audits and immediate responses to irregularities are critical to our
operations. We have an internal auditing program that includes unannounced branch audits and cash counts at
randomly selected branches.

Competition

We face competition from banks, NBFCs and other unregulated/unorganised money lenders. Our Board believes
that we can achieve economies of scale and increased operating efficiencies by increasing the number of branches
under operation and proven operating methods. We believe that the primary elements of competition are the
quality of customer service and relationship management, branch location and the ability to lend competitive
amounts at competitive rates. In addition, we believe the ability to compete effectively will be based increasingly
on strong management, regional market focus, automated management information systems and access to capital.

Property

Our registered office is located in Kottayam, Kerala and is owned by our Promoter. As of June 30, 2024, we have
branch offices in Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Delhi, Uttar Pradesh and
Maharashtra along with the union territory of Puducherry, most of which are contracted on a leasehold basis.

Intellectual Property

As on the date of this Prospectus, we have obtained 16 trademark registrations with the Trade Marks Registry
under the Trade Marks Act, 1999.

Employees

As on June 30, 2024, we had 3842 employees.

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit ofthe Standalone Firancial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assumnce about whether the Standalone Financial Statements as
a whole are fiee from material misstatement, whether due to fiaud or error, and to issue an auditor's
report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance.is a high level of assumnce, but is not a
guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with SAs will always detect a material misstatem€nt
when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually
or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be exp€cted to influence the economic decisions ofthe users
taken on the basis of these Standalone Financial Statements.

As part of an audit in accordance wilh standards on auditing, we exercise professional judgment and
professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:

. Identiry and assess the risks of material misstatement ofthe Standalone Financial Statements,
whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedues responsive to those risks,
and obtain audit evidence that is sulficient and appropriate to prcvide a basis for our opinion.
The risk of not d€tecting a material misstatement resulting iiom iiaud is higher than for one
resulting from €rror, as liaud may involv€ collusion, forgery, intentional omissions,
misrepres€ntations, or the override of intemal control.

. Obtain an understanding of the intemal contml relevant to the audit in order to design audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstancos. Under section 143(3xi)ofthe Act. we are
also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the company has adequate intemal
financial contol systems in place and operating effectiveness of such controls.

. Evaluate the appmpriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of the
accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the management.

o Conclude on the appropriateness of the management's use of the going concem basis of
accounting and bas€d on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncerlainty exists
related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to
continue as a going concem. lfwe conclude lhat a material uncertainty exists ,we are ,equired
to dmw attention in our auditor's rcport to the related disolosures in the Standalone Financial
Statements or, if such disclosures arc inadequate, to modiry our opinion. Oul conclusions are
based on the audit evidenc€ obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. Howevet future
events or conditions may cause the Company to ce6se to continue as a going ooncem.

. Evaluate the overall prcsentation, structur€ and contentofthe Standalone Financial Statements,
including the disclosures, and whether the fingncial statement represeots the underlying
tansactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the standalone financial statements that, individually
or in aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a rcasonably knowledgeable user of
the standalone financial statements may b€ influenced. we consider quantitative materialiry and
qualitative factors in (i) planning the scope of out audit work and in evaluating the results of our work;
and (ii) to evaluate the effect ofany identified misstat€ments in lhe standalone financial statements.

doing so would reasonably be expeated to outweigh the public interest benefits of such mmmunication.

We have audited the intemal financial controls over financial reporting of Kosamattam Finance Limited
("the Company") as of March 31,2022 in conjunction with our audit of the Standalone Ind AS

the essential components of the internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Intemal
Financial Controls over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of tndia.
These responsibilities include the design, implementation and maintenance of adequate intemal
financial controls that were operating eflectively for ensuring the orderly and efficient conduct of its
business, including adherence to Company's policies, the safeguarding ofits assets, the prevention and
detection offrauds and erro$, the accuracy and completeness ofthe accounting rccords, and the timely
preparation of reliable financial information, as required under the Companies Act, 2013.

Auditor's Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's internal financial controls over financial
reporting based on our audit. We have conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note on

and evaluating the design and op€rating effectiveness of intemal control based on assessed risk.
The
procedures selected depend on the audito/s judgment, including the assessment
of ihe risk of material
misstatement ofthe Financial Statements, whether due to fraud or eror.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide
a basis for
our audit opinion on the Company's intemal financial controls system over financial reporting.

Meanitrg of Intemal Finaocisl Controls over Finarcial Reporting

A Company's intemal financial conhol over financial reporting is a process designed to provide
reasonable assumnce regarding the reliability of financial reporting and preparation
of the Financial
Statements for extemal purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
A
company's intemal financial conhol over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures
that
(1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly
reflect the
transactions and the dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable
assurance that
transaction are recorded as necessary to prmit prepamtion of the Financiar statements in
accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditurcs of the Company are
being made only in accordance with authorization of management and direltors ofthe Company;
and
(3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timery detection of unauthorized
acquisition,
use, or disposition of the Company,s assets that could have a material effect on the Financial
Statements.

Inherelt limitstions oflDternal Finarcial Controls oyer Fitrancial Reportitrg


Because ofthe inherent limitations ofintemal financial controls over financial reporting, including the
possibility of collusion or improper management override of contols, material misstatements due
to
error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of intemal financial
contols over financial reporting to future periods arc subject to the risk that the intemal financiar
control ovel financial reporting may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that
degree ofcompliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

over financial reporting and such intemal financial controls over fin6ncial reponing were op€rating
effectively as at March 31, 2022, based on lhe intemal control over financiai reporting criteria

existing financial liabiliry is replaced by another fron the same tender on substantially different terms or the terms of an existing
liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as de-recognition of the oiginal liability and the

Further, in accordancE with RBI cirolar no. RBL2019-20/170 dated March 13, 2020, the impairment allowmes as per ECL shall
be compared with the rcquired provisioninS mder IRACP. If the impairment allowan@ under tnd AS 109 is lower than the
provisioning required under IRACP the differen.e is appropdated from net profit after tax to'Impaiment Res€rve .

3.5.1 ove iew of the E p€cted Credit Loss (ECL) model


Expe€ted Credit Losr at each reportinS date, is measured tnrough a loss allowance for a finmcial ffiet:
- At an amount equ.l to the li(etime expected credit losses if the aedit risk on that financial instrument has inae6ed
signif icandy since initial re€ognition.
- At an amount equal to 12'month expected credit loss, iJ the credit risk on a financial inskment has not increased
siSnifiGntly sin@ initial recoSnition.

Lifetihe exp€.d dedit losses mean expected credit lo6.ses that result from all po$ible default events over the expected lite of a

r2-month exp€.ted oedit losses mean the portion of Lifetime ECL that rcpcents the ECLS that r6ult from default events on
financial assets that are possible within the 12 months after the reportinS date.

The Conpany performs an assessment, at the end of each reporting period, of whether a financial asset's o€dit risk has
incrcas.d significanlly sincc initial recognition. Whcn maling the asse$ment, the chmge in the risk of a default ocoting over
the expected life of the 6nancial instrument is used instead of the change in the amount of €,\pecled credit lcses.

(SICR) sin@ initial re.ognition. A 12-month ECL provision is mde for staSe 1 financial asset. In assessing whether @dit risk
has in resed signific tly, the Company €ompares the risk of a default eorring on the financial det d at the rePoiling date

The mechmics of the ECL calculatioro are outlined below md the key elements are, as follows:

PEbability oI Default OD) - The Probability of Default is an estimate of the likelih@d of default ov€r a given time horizon.
The Company uses historical infomation where availablc to determine PD. Conside.ing the different producls md schemes, the
Compey hs bitur.ated its loan portfotio into various pmls.

Expos@ at Default GAD) - The Exposure at Default is an estimate of rhe exposure at a future default date, .osidcring
expected chanSes in the exposure after the reporting date including repayments of principal and interest whether scheduled by
ontract or otherwise, expected dtawdowns on ommitted faolities, and accued interest from missed payments.

Lo6s Given Default (LCD) - The Loss Given Default is an estimab of the loss arising in the .ase where default o@rs at a given
time. lt is based on the differen€e between the contractual c6h flows due and those that the lmder would expe.t to receivg
including from the realization of any ollateral.

While esrimating rhe qpected credit losses, the Company reviews macrm.onomi. developments occurring in the ecoromy md

The principal or the most advantageus market must be a..e$ible by the Company- The fair value of an asset or a liability is
mcasured using the asmptiom that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liabitity, assming that market
participants act in their eonomic best interest.

A fair value measurcm{r of a nonjimncial asset tak€6 into account a market participant's ability to Senerate mnomi. benefits
by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to eother market parti.ipant that would use the asset in its highest

The Compmy uses valuation techniques that are apFopriaie in the circlrmstan.es and for which sufficient data are available to
measure fair value, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizinS the se of unobseryable inputs.

Iatvalue measurements are categorizd into Level 1, 2, or 3 based on the degre to which the inputs to the fair value

4.4 Contingent liabilities and provision. otherlhan impaiment on aloan porlfolio

The Company operates in a regulatory and le8al hviroment that, by naturg has a heightened element of litigation risk
inherent to its operations. As a result, it is involved in various litigation and arbitration in the ordinary course of bsines. When
the Company can retiably measure the outflow of economi. benefits in relation to a specific casc and considers such outflows to
be p.obable, the Company re€ords a provision against thc case. Where the probability of outflow is considered to be remote or
probable but a reliable stimate .amot be made, a contingent liability is disdosed. Given the subjectivity and uncertainty of
determining the probabiliry and amount of loss6, the Compmy takes into account a number of factors including legal advicr,
the staSe of the matter and histori.al evidence from similar incidents. Significant judgment is required to condude these

4.s Defined employee benefit assete and liabilities


The ost of the defined benefit Sratuity plan and the present value of the $ahrity obtigation are detemined uing actuarial
valuations. An actuarial valuation involv€s malinS varioE dsmptios that my differ from actual developments in rhe future.
These include the detemination of the discomt rate, future salary indeaser and mortality rates. Due to the complexiti6
involved in the valuation md its long-tem nature, a defined benedt obligation is highly sensitive to chm86 in these
assumptioN. All asshptiom de reviewed annually.

4.6 Fair value mea6uienent


Wlen &e fair values of finmcial asts and rinancial liabilities reorded in the balme sheet camot b€ measured based on
quoted prics in active markets, their fair value is measued sing various valuation te.hniques. Tha inputs to th6e models are
taken from observable markets where possible, but where this is not feasible, a d%ree of iudgment is requted in Btablishing
fair valu6.ludgmmts include onsideratio$ of inputs such as liquidity risb credit risk, md volatility. Changes in assumptions
about these factors could affect the repoftd fair value of financial iEtruments.

It is the Compmy's policy to consider a fin cial iEtrumot as 'ared' and therefore re'classified out of Stage 3 when none
of the defau)t oitena have been present for at least ttue col1gutive months. The decision whether to dassiJy m assct s
SiaSe 2 or Sta8e 1 once ored depends on the updated oedit gradg at the nme of the cure, and whether this indi.at6 there
has ben a signifi.ant inoeas€ in oedit risk compared to initial recognihon.

.riteria for loans are as follows:

High grade Stag.1


Standard grade 1.30 DPD Stage 2
Sub-standard grade 31-60 DPD Stage 2
Past due but not impaired 61-90 DPD Stage 2
Individually impaired 91 DPD or More StaSe 3

Exposure at Default (EAD)


The Exposure at Default is e Btimate of the qposure at a tutue default date, @Eidering expecled changes in the
etPosure aftel the rePorting date, including repaymmts of principal md interBl whether s.heduled by contraci or
odrcrwie, etp€cted diawdowns on committed facilitiB, ed a(rued inter6t.

Probability of default (PD)


The Probability of Default is an estimate of the likelih@d of default over a given time horizon. To .al.ulate the ECL for a
Stage 1 loan, the Company 6s6s6 the poGsible default events withh 12 months for the calculation of th€ 12 months ECL.
Ior Stage 2 and Stage 3 financial a*t5, the qposure at default is considered for events over the liretime of the instrments.
The Company uses historical iilomation wherever available to detemine PD. PD is calculated using the Incremental 91
DPD approach considenng fresh slippa8e sing historical information.

Market Riik is the risk that the fair value or the tuture cash flows o, a financial instrumet will fluctuat€ becaus€ of chan86

md equity to lGs and redu.e ou exposure to the volatitity inhermt in financial iistruments. The Company is exposed to
two types of meket risk d follows:

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of tuture cash flows of a fi]ucial imtrment will fluct@te becaw of changes
in market interBt rates. The.ompany is subiect to interest rate risk, pnmarily since it lends to customers at fixed rates and
for matu.ity pe.iods short€r than the tunding sours. The Mjority of our borrowings are at fixed rat6. However,
borrowings at fl@tirg rat6 give rise to interest rate risk. Interest rates are highly seNitive to mey factors beyond control,
including $e monetary policies of the R@rue Barl of India deregulation of the financial sector in India, domestic and
intcmatiorul emnomi. and politi.al conditions, inflatiorL and other factors. In order to manage interest rate rislr the
.ompany se€k to optimize the borrowing profile between short-tem and long,tem l(Es. The compmy adopt! tunding
strategies to ensu.e diversilied resoueraisinS optiom to minimize co6t and maximize the stability of fmds. Assets and
liabilities are categorized into various tihe buckets based on &eir matuitis md the Asset Liability Management
Committee supewises an interst rate sensitivity report periodically for 6s6sment of interest rate risks. Thc hterst Rate
Risk is mitigated by availing tunds at very competitive rates ttuough diversified bo[owings md for different renures.

Audiaor's Responsibilities for the Audit ofthe Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Financial Statements as o whole arc
fie€ from material misstatem€nl whether due to ftaud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that
includes our opinion- Reasonable assuance is a high level ofassurance, but is not a guarante€ that an audit
cotrducted in accordance with SAs will always detect a malerial misstatement when itexists.
Misstalements can adse from fiaud or error and arc considered material i{ individuatly or h the aggegate,
they could reasonably be exp€cted to hfluence the economic decisions of the users taken on the basis of
these Finatrcial Statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with standads on auditin& we exercis€ pofessional judgment and
maintain professional scepticism lhroughout the audt. We also:

ldentifo and assess the risks ofmaterial misstatement of the Financial Statements, whether due to
ftaud or ermt design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit
evidence that is sufficient and apFopriale to provide a basis for our opinioL The risk of not
detecting a material misstatement resultitrg ftom fralrd is higher than for one resultirg fiom error,
as fraud may involve collusior\ forgery, ifltentional omissionq misrepresentatons, or the override

the scope of our audit work atrd in evaluating &e results of our work; md (ii) to evaluate the effect of ant

We comrnunicate wilh those charged with governanoe regarding among other matters, the planned scape

We also provide those charged with govema[ce with a statement that we have compli€d with relevant
ethical requirements regarding independence, and to corDmunicate with rhern all relationships and other
matters that may reasonably b€ thought to bear on our independence, aad where applicable, related
safeguards.

From the matters communicated with lhose charged with govematcq we determine those malters thal

3 Signifi@nt a.counting Polides

3.1 Recognition of interest income


The Company .ecognizes inrcrest income by applying the effective interest rate (EIR) to the 8.oss.&rying amount of a financial
asset except fo, purchaed or originated credit-imPairsd ,inancial ssets and other .redit-imPaired finmcial Nets.
Ior purcha*d ot origimted aedit-impaired finecial assets, the Company applies the aedit-adjusted effe.tive interest rate to
the amortized cost of the finecial asset f.om initial reognitio..
For orhcr oedit impaired finmcial assets, the Compmy applies an ef{e.tive interBt rate to the amo.tizd cost of the 6nan.ial
aiet in sub*quent reporting periods.

The effe.tive interst rate on a finan.ial asset is the rate that exactly dis.omts estimated tuture cash receiPts ttuough the
exp€cted life of rhe finmcial asset to the gross carrying amout of a financial asset .While estimating future csh receiPb, factors
like expected behaviour and li(e cycle of the financial as*t, probable fluctuation in collateral value etc. are coffidered which has
an impa.t on the ElR.

While cal&lating the effe.tive interest rate, the Company in ludes all fes and .harg6 paid or leceived to and from the
borrowers that are an integral part of the effective interelt rate, kamaction costs, and all other premiuN or dis.omts.

3.2 Recognition of revenue fiom the sale of goo& or senices


Revenue (other than for liMcial lNtrum.nts within the scope ol Ind AS 109) is measured at an amount that reflects the
considerations, to which an entity elpects to be entitled in exchanSe for trffifeffing g@ds or servies to the ostomer, excluding
mounts collected on behalf of third parties.

The Company rNgnizes revenue fiom contracts with customers based on a five step model as set out in Ind AS 115:

Step 1: Identify conhacl(s) with a €ustomer A contract is defined as an agreement between two or more parties that creates
enforceabb nghtsand obligatioN d sets out the criteria for every.ontra.t that mustbe met.

Step 2: ld€ntify pcrforMe oblisatioB in ihe contiact A perfomance obliSation is a promi* in a ontract with a Gtomer to
tunsfer a good o. service to the customer.

Step 3: Determinc the trmeclion prie: The transaction price is the amount ol consideration to which the Company expects to
be entitled in ex.han8e for transfernng promised goods or seNiq to a ctomer, excluding amounts collected on behalf of third

Step 4: Allocate the transaction pri@ to the perfome.e obligatioN h the contract lor a contract that has more than one
perforMe obligatiorr the Company allo€ates the transaction price to each performan@ obliSation in m mout that depids
the amount of €onsidcration to which the Compmy expects to be entitled in exchange for sadsfying each p€rformance
obligation.

3.6 ldrpaiment offinancial assers


In n.cordance with tnd As 109, the ComPany us6 the,ExPected Credit l.ss model (ECL, for evaluatinS imPaiment of
financial assets other thm those measured at Fair value through Prcfit and lo6s.

Furrhcr, in a..ordancc with RBI circular no. RBI/2019-20/170 dated Ma.ch 13, 2020, the impatment allow ces as Per ECL shall
be compared w h thc required provisioning ulrder IRACP. If the impaiment allowance under Ind AS 109 is lower thm the
provisioning requircd under IRACP the diff€rence is aPProPnated from net Profit after tax to'ImPaim!'llt Reserud'

3.5.1 Overview of the Expe.ted CrEdit Loss (ECL) model


Expecled Cr€dit Loss, at each r€Porting date, is masured throuSh a loas allowan.e for a financial aset:
, Ar m amount equat to rhe lifetime expe.ted .redit losses iJ the qedit risk on that finan.ial instMent has inaeded
signiJi@tlysinceinitial reoSnition.
- Ar u amount equal to 12-month expe.d credit loss€s, iI the credit risk on a financial instrmmt has not in@ased
signifi@tlysinceinitial rmSnition.

Lifetime expected credit losses mean expected .redit loss.5 that result from all possiblc default events over the exPected life of a

12-month expected credit losses mean the portion of Lifetime ECL that repres€nts the ECIr that result from default events or
finmcial assets that arc possible within the 12 months after the reporting date.

The Compey Perform m 6s6smcnt, at ihe end of each reportinS perio4 of whether a fimcial asset's oedit risk has
inoeased signi{icantty sin@ initial re.ognition. When making thc assessmenl the change in the risk of a default Gouing over
the expected ljfe of the finanoal instrment is u*d ictead of the dEnge in the amount of expected 6€dit losses.

Bascd on thc abovc process, the Company categonzes its loans into thre€ stages as described below:

ror non-impaired tuancial assets


. Stage 1 is comprised of all non-impaired financial 6sets which have not experiened a signifi(ht incee
in dedit risk
(SICR) sincc initial re@gnition. A l2-month ECL provision is mde for staSe 1 fimncial ass€t. In assessing whether credit risk
has incr@sed siSnifi@tly, the Compmy.ompares the risk of a default occuning on the financial asset as at the reporting date
with the risk of a default occurnng on the finan€ial asset as at the date of initial recognition. Interest revenue is calolated on the
gross carrying mount of the asset.
. StaCe 2 is emprised of all non-impaircd fiM.ial assets whi.h have experienced a significant increase in cedit r;k sine
initial re.ognition. The Comp&y reognizs lifetime ECL for stage 2 financial assets. In subpquent reportin8 periodr if the
credit risk of the financial instrument improves su.h that there is no longer a significant inoeas€ in credit risk sine initial
recognition, then enhties shall rcvert to rsoSnizing 12 months ECL provision. Inte6t revenue is calculated on the gro6s
carryinS ount of ihe dset.

For impaired find.ial a6sets:


Financial as.sets are classificd 6 staSe 3 when there is objective evidence of impaiment at the reporting date.

The Compey recoSnizes lretime ECL for impaired finmci.l 6sets dd interest revmue is calculat€d on the net cdrying

3.6.2 f,stimatiof, of Erpected Credit Loss


The me.hani6 of the ECL calculatioru are outLined below and the key elements are, as follows

Probability of Defautt (PD) - The Probability of Default is an €6hmate of the likelihmd of default over a given time horizon.
The Company uses historical information where available to determine PD. Considenng the differont products d schm6, the
Company has biturcated its loan portfolio into various p@ls.

To mitiSate its credit risks on finan ial assets, the Company s@ks to use collateral where possible. The collareral comes in
various forms, su.h as Land, buildinSt seorities, etc. Howevea the fair value of collateral affecrs th€ calcularion of ECL. To the
ext'nt pGsible, the ComPey uses active market data for valuing fimcial assets held as collateral. Other financial 6sets which
do not have readily deteminable markct valu6 are valued using modcls. Non {inancial collateral is valued bas€d on dara

may take pcsession of Propedes or other assets in its retail portfolio and gene.ally disposes of such asers rhrough auction, ro

recoveries agatui such loans are.redited to rhe srarement of profir md loss.

3.7 Detemination of fairvalue of Financial Instrment6


Fair value is the pri@ that would be received to sell m asset or paid to transfei a liability in an orderly rransaction berwen
market ParticiP ts at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the pr€sumprion rhat the trareaction to
*ll the aset or transfer the liability takes pla@ either:
i. In the principal m&ket for the asscr or liability, or
ii. In the ab$ncc of a principal market, in the mosr advantageous Mker for the asset or liabilty

The PrinciPal or the most advantagsus market must be accessible by the Compmy. The hn value of an asser or . liability is
medued using the 6sumPtions that market parti.ipmts would use when pricing rhe 6set or liabilty, assuming thar ma;ket
participants act in their economi. best interesr.

A fair value mcasurement of a nonjinancial asset tal6 hto account a mdket participant's ability to
Senerare eonomic bcnefits
by using the asset in its hjghBt and best usc or by ellinS it to another mrket participmt that would u* rhe asset in its hiShst

The ComPany use valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumtmc€s and for which sufficient dara are available ro
measure fair value, maximizin8 the use of relevmt observable inpurs and minimizinS rhe u!€ of unobserable inputs.

Fair value me6urements are cat%orized into Level 1, 2, or 3 bed on the de8r@ ro which the inpurs to the fair v.lue

The Company assses, at each reportinS date, whether rhere is my indication rhat any properry, plmt and equipment dd
intmgible assets or Sroup of assets @lled Cash Generating Units (CGU) may be impaired. lf any such indication exists, or when
annual imPatment testing for e 6set is rcquired the Compmy stimates the asset's recoverable eount to derermine the
extent of impaiment, if any.

An assefs recoverable amount is the hiSher of an 6set's or csh-Senerating unit's (CGU) fair value less costs of disposal ard fts

In assessing value in usq the stimated tuture .ash flows ee disounted to rheir preseftr value using a prerax discounr rare that
reflects orrent market ass6sments of the time value of money and the risks sf,ecifi. ro rhe asser. I! derermining fair value less
costs of disPosal, reent rnarket trarsactions are taken into acount. If no such transactioN .an be idenrified an appropriate
valuation model is used.
An ass€ssment is made at each reportinS date to determine wherher there is m indication thar previously rmgnized
jmPairment losses no longer exist or have decreased. If such indi.ation
exisrs, rhe Company esrimates the asse(s or CGU,S

if the revisio affecrs only that pe.iod or in the period of the revision and tuture periods if the revision affe.ts both current and

arc managcd togcther to a.hieve a pani.ular businBs objective. This assssment includes iudSment reftecting all relevant
evidence includi^g how the performe.e of the dets is evaluated md their pe.formance measured, the risks that affect the
performne of the 6sets Md how these are managed, and how the managers of the assets are g)mpeNated. The Company
monitors fimncial assets measured at amortized cct or fair value throuSh other comprehensive in€ome that are deremgnizd
prior to thet matuity to understand the reason for their disposal and whether the reens are consistent with the objective ol
the business for whi.h thc asset was held. Monitoring is part of the Company's continuous asGsment of whether the business
nodel for which the reminin8 financial assets are h.'ld continues to be appropriate and if it is not appropriate whether there h6
been a .hange in business model and so a prospective .hmge to the classification of those assets.

Note 22.1 Nahrre dd purpo* of rcseFe

Statutory Reserve represents the Reserve lund oeated mder Se.tion !t5 lC of rhe Reserue Banl of India Ac1, 1934.
Ac.ordingly an amout of < 2,141.07 Lak}E (Mdch 31, 2022 I 1,59.94 Lakhs) representing 20% of Pro{it for the period is
tramfered to the fund for the year.

This r6eNe fund can bc utiliz.d only for limited purposes as specified by RBI from time to time and every such
utilization shall b€ reported to the RBI within specifi(d period of time faom the date of such utilization.

value, representinguroealized gainslosses.

This Reserve reprents ihe premium on the issue of equity sha.es and can be utilized in a.ordm@ with the provisions of
the Companies Act, 2013.

Impaiment Reserve
In a.cordm.e with RBI ciralar no. RBI/2019 20/170 dated March 13, 2020, the ompmy provided impairment allowances
as required by Ind AS. Simultaneously, the.ompany determined asset classification and .omputed impaiment provisions
based on the applicable prudential noiN of Income Recognition, Asset Classificatiorr and Provisioning (IRACP). A
.omparison between thc provisios iequted under IRACP and the impaiment allowm.es made mder Ind AS 109 has
b(u dis.losed in Notc No.46.

Furthemo.e, in acordane with RBI reSulations, the conpany consistently allcated the differoe between the
impairment allowm@ cal.ulated under Ind AS 109 and the provisioninS required under IRACP for Credit Losses fiom
the net profit after tax to the 'Impairment Reserve.' This pradice has ben followed by the company ftom the fis.al year
2019-20 util the tu.al year 2022-23.

During the arrent year, the Eryecled Credit Loss (ECL) model was updated, resulting in the Impaiment Allowm.e
determined unde. the provisions of lnd AS 109 exceeding ihe Impaiment Allowance under IRACP.

Given that thc ECL Provision supasses the IRACP requirement, the n.\:d to mintain an lmpaiment Reserve is no longer
applicable- Consequently, thc balane of rhe Impairment Reserve has been rcvused out md transferred to Retained
Eamings.

Under the erstwhile Companies A.t 1956, Seneral rerve was created through an amual transfcr of profit for the period
at a sPecificd percentage in ac.ordan@ with applicable regulations. Conscqucnt to introdu.tion of Compmies Act 2013,
the requir.'ment to mandatorily transfer a sp€cified percentage of the net profit to general reserve h6 been withdrawn.
Howevel the amount previously tansf€rrcd to the general reseNe can be utilised only in accordance with the specific
requiremots of Companies Act, 2013.

This Reservc represents the cumulative profits of th€ Company. This R6erve can be utilized in accordance wirh the
provisions of the Companis Act, 2013.

Definition of default and ore


The Compmy .oroiders a fimcial insEument as defaulted and therefore Stage 3 (credit impaired) foi Expected Credit
Loss (ECL) calculations in all cases when the borrower becomes 90 days past due on its $ntractual payments. As a part of a
qualitative assesment of whether a customer is in default, the Company also considers a variety of instances that may
indicate utlikeness to pay. When such cvcnts ocor, the Company carefully .oreiders whether the event should r6ult in
treating the ostomer as defauited and therefore assessed as StaSe 3 for ECL calculations or whether Stage 2, as appropriatc.

It is the Compay's poli.y to consider a financial instrumcnt as 'cured'and therefore re-.l6sified out of StaSe 3 when none
of the delault aiteria have been prcsent for at least ltue con*otivc months. The de.ision whether to classify an asset as
Stage 2 or Stage 1 oncc cured depends on the updated credit grade, at the time of the cure, and whether this indicates there
has been a si8nifi.ant increase in oedit risk $mparcd to idtial rccoSnition.

Company's internal credit rating grades ddstaging dte;a for loans are as follows:

High grade Stage 1


1.30 DPD Stagc 2
31-60 DPD Stage 2
Past due but not impaircd 61- 90 DPD Stage 2
Individually impaired 91 DPD or More StaBe 3

Exposure at Default (f,AD)


The Exposure at Default is m estimate of the exposure at a future default date, €onsiderinS qpected .hanSes in the
exposure after the reporting datc, including repayments o{ p ncipal md inter6t, whethe. scheduled by contracl or
otherwise, expected drawdowm on commjtted fnciliti.s, d ac.rued interest.

Probability of default {PD)


The Probability of Default is an estimate of the likelihood of default over a Biven time horizon. To calculate the ECL for a
Stage 1 loan, the Company ascss rhe po$ible default events within 12 months for the calculation of thc 12 months ECL.
For Stag. 2 md StaSe 3 finan€ial asset' the exposure at default is coNidered for events over the lifetime of th€ instruments.
The Company uses historical infomation wherever available to determine PD. PD is calolated using the Incdental 91
DPD approach consid.ring fr6h slippaSe using historical information.

II0 Market;sk

Market Risk is the rjsk that the fair value or the tuture cash flows of a financial jnstrument wiu nuctuate because of.hang6
in ma.ket fa.tors. Su.h.hanges in the values of financial instruments may result hom €hanges in the interest rates, credit,
liquidity, and othcr market .han8es. The objective of mrket risk mma8ment is to avoid ex.essive expGure of our eamings
and .Auity to loss and redu@ our exposure to the volatility inherent in financial instruments. The Company is exFxed to
two tyPe! of market risk as folows:

lnterest rate .isk is the risk that the fai. value of tuture cash flows of a firancial instrument will fluctuaie because of chan86
in market inter6t rates. The company is subiecl to irterest rate risb primarily since it lends to ostomers at fixed rates and
for maturity periods shorter thm the fuding sources. 'Ihe maiority of our borowings are at fixed rares. Howryer,
borrowings at floating rates give rise to interest rate risk. Interest rates are highly sensitive to many factors hyond control,
includinS the monetary policiG of the Reserve Bank of India deregulation of the financial sector in India domestic and
international economic and political conditios, inllation, and other factors. In ordei to manage interesr rate risk, lhe
company s@ks to optimi?e the borrowing profile betw.ln short-term and long,term l@ns. The ompany adopts tunding
shategiE to eGue diversified rcsoureraisinS options to minimize ct md maximize the stabiliry of tunds. Assers and
liabilitiG ee GteSorizcd into various time buckets ba*d on their matu.ities and the Asset Liabiliry Managemcnt
Committee suPe.vises an interest iate sensitivily report periodi.ally for assessment of interest late risks. The Inter6r Rate
Risk is mitigated by availing tunds at very €ompctitive rates through diversified borrowings and for differmr tenur6.

The following table demonstrates the *hsitivity to a rasonably possible chanSe in the interest rates on the portion of
borrowinSs affeded. With all other variables held oNtmt, the profit before rdes affected through rhe impact on floating

Succession

Where NCDs are held in joint names and one of the joint holders dies, the survivor(s) will be recognized as the
NCD Holder(s). It will be sufficient for our Company to delete the name of the deceased NCD Holder after
obtaining satisfactory evidence of his death. Provided, a third person may call on our Company to register his
name as successor of the deceased NCD Holder after obtaining evidence such as probate of a will for the purpose
of proving his title to the debentures. In the event of demise of the sole or first holder of the Debentures, the
Company will recognise the executors or administrator of the deceased NCD Holders, or the holder of the
succession certificate or other legal representative as having title to the Debentures only if such executor or
administrator obtains and produces probate or letter of administration or is the holder of the succession certificate
or other legal representation, as the case may be, from an appropriate court in India. The directors of the Company
in their absolute discretion may, in any case, dispense with production of probate or letter of administration or
succession certificate or other legal representation. In case of death of NCD Holders who are holding NCDs in
dematerialised form, third person is not required to approach the Company to register his name as successor of
the deceased NCD Holder. He shall approach the respective Depository Participant of the NCD Holder for this
purpose and submit necessary documents as required by the Depository Participant.

Where a non-resident Indian becomes entitled to the NCDs by way of succession, the following steps have to be
complied with:

1. Documentary evidence to be submitted to the Legacy Cell of the RBI to the effect that the NCDs were
acquired by the non-resident Indian as part of the legacy left by the deceased NCD Holder.

2. Proof that the non-resident Indian is an Indian national or is of Indian origin.

3. Such holding by a non-resident Indian will be on a non-repatriation basis.

Joint-holders

Where two or more persons are holders of any NCD(s), they shall be deemed to hold the same as joint holders
with benefits of survivorship subject to other provisions contained in the Articles.

Procedure for Re-materialization of NCDs

time after Allotment in accordance with the applicable procedure stipulated by the DP, in accordance with the
Depositories Act and/or rules as notified by the Depositories from time to time. Holders of NCDs who propose

Procedure for Redemption by NCD Holders

The procedure for redemption is set out below:

NCDs held in physical form on account of re-materialization:

No action would ordinarily be required on the part of the NCD Holder at the time of redemption and the
redemption proceeds would be paid to those NCD Holders whose names stand in the register of NCD Holders
maintained by us on the Record Date fixed for the purpose of Redemption. However, our Company may require
that the NCD certificate(s), duly discharged by the sole holder/all the joint-holders (signed on the reverse of the
NCD certificate(s)) be surrendered for redemption on maturity and should be sent by the NCD Holder(s) by
Registered Post with acknowledgment due or by hand delivery to our office or to such persons at such addresses
as may be notified by us from time to time. NCD Holder(s) may be requested to surrender the NCD certificate(s)
in the manner as stated above, not more than three months and not less than one month prior to the redemption
date so as to facilitate timely payment.

We may at our discretion redeem the NCDs without the requirement of surrendering of the NCD certificates by
the holder(s) thereof. In case we decide to do so, the holders of NCDs need not submit the NCD certificates to us
and the redemption proceeds would be paid to those NCD Holders whose names stand in the register of NCD
Holders maintained by us on the Record Date fixed for the purpose of redemption of NCDs. In such case, the
NCD certificates would be deemed to have been cancelled. Also see “Issue Procedure - Payment on Redemption”
on page 2372.

No action is required on the part of NCD Holder(s) at the time of redemption of NCDs.

Payment on Redemption

The manner of payment of redemption is set out below:

NCDs held in physical form on account of re-materialisation:

The payment on redemption of the NCDs will be made by way of cheque/pay order/ electronic modes. However,
if our Company so requires, the aforementioned payment would only be made on the surrender of NCD
certificate(s), duly discharged by the sole holder / all the joint-holders (signed on the reverse of the NCD
certificate(s). Dispatch of cheques/pay order, etc. in respect of such payment will be made on the Redemption
Date or (if so requested by our Company in this regard) within a period of 30 days from the date of receipt of the
duly discharged NCD certificate.

In case we decide to do so, the redemption proceeds in the manner stated above would be paid on the Redemption
Date to those NCD Holders whose names stand in the Register of NCD Holders maintained by us/Registrar to the
Issue on the Record Date fixed for the purpose of Redemption. Hence the transferees, if any, should ensure
lodgement of the transfer documents with us at least 7 (seven) days prior to the Record Date. In case the transfer
documents are not lodged with us at least 7 (seven) days prior to the Record Date and we dispatch the redemption

232
proceeds to the transferor, claims in respect of the redemption proceeds should be settled amongst the parties inter
se and no claim or action shall lie against us or the Registrar.

Our liability to holder(s) towards their rights including for payment or otherwise shall stand extinguished from
the date of redemption in all events and when we dispatch the redemption amounts to the NCD Holder(s).

Further, we will not be liable to pay any interest, income or compensation of any kind from the date of redemption
of the NCD(s).

NCDs held in electronic form:

On the redemption date, redemption proceeds would be paid by cheque /pay order / electronic mode to those NCD
Holders whose names appear on the list of beneficial owners given by the Depositories to us. These names would
be as per the Depositories’ records on the Record Date fixed for the purpose of redemption. These NCDs will be
simultaneously extinguished to the extent of the amount redeemed through appropriate debit corporate action
upon redemption of the corresponding value of the NCDs. It may be noted that in the entire process mentioned
above, no action is required on the part of NCD Holders.

Our liability to NCD Holder(s) towards his/their rights including for payment or otherwise shall stand
extinguished from the date of redemption in all events and when we dispatch the redemption amounts to the NCD
Holder(s).

Further, we will not be liable to pay any interest, income or compensation of any kind from the date of redemption
of the NCD(s).

Right to reissue NCD(s)

Subject to the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013, where we have fully redeemed or repurchased any NCD(s),
we shall have and shall be deemed always to have had the right to keep such NCDs in effect without
extinguishment thereof, for the purpose of resale or reissue and in exercising such right, we shall have and be
deemed always to have had the power to resell or reissue such NCDs either by reselling or reissuing the same
NCDs or by issuing other NCDs in their place. The aforementioned right includes the right to reissue original
NCDs.

We may, at our option, use on our own, as well as exchange, share or part with any financial or other information

recording transfers of NCDs are fully utilised, the same may be replaced by us against the surrender of such

aforesaid only if the certificate numbers and the distinctive numbers are legible.

Applicant aggregating to a value exceeding ₹10 lakhs shall be deemed such individual Applicant to be an HNI
Applicant and all such Applications shall be grouped in the HNI Portion, for the purpose of determining the basis
of allotment to such Applicant. However, any Application made by any person in his individual capacity and an

a) Lending policy: Should contain overview of origination, risk management, monitoring and collections.

The principal form of security that we accept is household gold jewellery. We do not accept bullion, gold biscuits,
gold bars; new mass-produced gold jewellery or medallions. While these restrictions narrow the pool of assets
that may be provided to us as security, we believe that it provides us with the following key advantages:

It filters out spurious jewellery that may be pledged by jewellers and goldsmiths. We find that household, used
jewellery is less likely to be spurious or fake.

The emotional value attached by each household to the pledged jewellery acts as a strong incentive for timely
repayment of loans and revoking the pledge.

As we only accept the pledge of household jewellery, the value of the pledged gold is typically only as much as
the worth of gold that is owned by an average Indian household. This prevents our exposure to large sized loans
where the chances of default and subsequent losses are high.

The amount that we finance against the pledged gold jewellery is typically based on a fixed rate per gram of gold
content in the jewellery. We value the gold jewellery brought by customers based on our corporate policies and
guidelines. As per the policy, we grant gold loans on 22 Carat gold ornaments. However, in case the jewels that
are being pledged are less than 22 carat, the branches are required to convert the carat of gold jewels to the
equivalent of 22 Carat. Under no-circumstances gold ornaments below 19 carats are accepted by our Company.
The rates per gram are fixed by us on weekly intervals. The actual loan amount varies according to the type of
jewellery pledged. While jewellery can be appraised based on a variety of factors, such as total weight, weight of
gold content, production cost, style, brand and value of any gemstones, we appraise the gold jewellery solely
based on its gold content. Our Gold Loans are, therefore, generally well collateralized because the actual value of
the gold jewellery is higher than our appraised value of the gold jewellery when the loan is disbursed. The amount
we lend against an item and the total value of the pledged gold we hold fluctuates according to the market price
of gold. An increase in the price of gold will not automatically result in an increase in the value of our Gold Loan
portfolio unless the rate per gram is revised by our Corporate Office. It only results in a favourable movement in
the value of the security, pledged with us. Similarly, since adequate margins are built in at the time of the loan
disbursement and owing to the short tenure of these loans, on average, a decrease in the price of gold generally
has little impact on our interest income. However, a sustained decrease in the market price of gold could cause a
decrease in the growth rate of Gold Loans in our loan portfolio.

301
Our Gold Loans have tenure of 9 months. However, customers may redeem the loan at any time. As per the current
policy of our Company, interest is to be paid in accordance with the scheme. In the event that a loan is not repaid
on time and after providing due notice to the customer, the unredeemed pledged gold is disposed-off, on behalf
of the customer in satisfaction of the principal and interest charges in accordance with the applicable RBI
guidelines. Any surplus arising out of the disposal of the pledged gold is refunded to the customer or is
appropriated towards any other liability by the borrower. In the event that the recoverable amount is more than
the realizable value of the pledged gold, the customer remains liable for the shortfall.

The processes involved in approving and disbursing a Gold Loan are divided into three phases:

• Pre-disbursement;
• Post disbursement; and
• Release of the pledge.

Pre-disbursement process

Gold Loan appraisal of a customer involves the following steps;

a) Customer identification
b) KYC Documentation
c) Security appraisal
d) Documentation

Post-disbursement process

The period/tenure for a Gold Loans is up to 12 months. Timely interest collection and closing of accounts within
the specified period is vital for the successful and smooth functioning of gold loan companies like that of ours.
To ensure this, the branches regularly follow up with their gold loan customers through notices served at 3 months
(ordinary notice), 6 months (registered notice), 9 months (registered notice with acknowledgement due) as well
as personal contacts directly and over the phone.

Branch security and safety measures: Electronic Security System

Branches are normally equipped with security devices (Alarms) which automatically alert the branch manager,
regional manager as well as the nearest police station in the event of any theft attempts.

The gold pledged as security is insured with an insurance company. Our Company makes periodic analysis and
revises the insurance policy as per the value/quantity of the gold.

Release of pledge

Once a loan is fully repaid, the pledged gold jewellery is returned to the customer. The customer has to be present
personally along with the gold loan token, at the branch where the pledge was originally made. The branch will
verify the person with the photo taken at the time of pledge and confirm that there is no foul play and the amount
to be paid is informed to the customer from the software and clarifies doubts if any on the amount demanded. The
customer pays the amount at the cash counter and the ornaments are taken out of the safe and handed over to the
customer after confirming them with the list of ornaments mentioned in the token and gold loan application form.

Regulations governing NBFCs

Reserve Bank of India Act, 1934

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.

As per prescribed law any company that carries on the business of a non-banking financial institution as its
‘principal business’ is to be treated as an NBFC. The term ‘principal businesses has not been defined in any statute,
however, RBI has clarified through a press release (Ref. No. 1998-99/1269) issued on April 08, 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 a company’s principal business. The company will
be treated as an NBFC if its financial assets are more than 50 percent of its total assets (netted off by intangible
assets) and income from financial assets should be more than 50 percent of the gross income. Both these tests are
required to be satisfied in order to determine the principal business of a company.

Every NBFC is required to submit to the RBI a certificate, from its statutory auditor within one month from the
date of finalisation of the balance sheet and in any case, not later than December 30 of that year, stating that it is
engaged in the business of non-banking financial institution requiring it to hold a certificate of registration.

NBFCs are primarily governed by the RBI Act and the Master Directions – Reserve Bank of India (Non-Banking
Financial Company – Scale Based Regulation) Directions, 2023, Peer to Peer Lending Platform (Reserve Bank)
Directions 2017, Master Direction– Non-Banking Financial Company - Account Aggregator (Reserve Bank)
Directions, 2016, Reserve Bank Commercial Paper Directions, 2017 and the Non-Banking Financial Companies
Acceptance of Public Deposits (Reserve Bank) Directions, 2016. In addition to these regulations, NBFCs are also
governed by various circulars, notifications, guidelines and directions issued by the RBI from time to time.

Although, by definition, NBFCs are permitted to operate in similar sphere of activities as banks, there are a few
important and key differences. The most important distinctions are:

• 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

• NBFCs are not allowed to deal in foreign exchange, even if they specifically apply to the RBI for approval
in this regard.

306
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. The major regulations governing our
Company are detailed below:

On October 19, 2023, the RBI issued a Master Direction – Reserve Bank of India (Non-Banking Financial
Company – Scale Based Regulation) Directions, 2023 (“SBR Directions”). A Revised Regulatory Framework for
NBFCs (“SBR Framework”), whereby NBFCs have been categorised into following four layers based on their
size, activity, and perceived riskiness by the RBI:

i. NBFC- Base Layer (“NBFC-BL”);


ii. NBFC- Middle Layer (“NBFC-ML”);
iii. NBFC- Upper layer (“NBFC-UL”); and
iv. NBFC- Top Layer (“NBFC-TL”)

The NBFC- BL comprise of (a) non-deposit taking NBFCs below the asset size of ₹ 1,00,000 lakh and (b) NBFCs
undertaking the following activities- (i) NBFC-Peer to Peer Lending Platform (NBFC-P2P), (ii) NBFC-Account
Aggregator (NBFC-AA), (iii) Non-Operative Financial Holding Company (NOFHC) and (iv) NBFCs not availing
public funds and not having any customer interface.

The NBFC- ML consist of (a) all deposit taking NBFCs (“NBFC-Ds”), irrespective of asset size, (b) non-deposit
taking NBFCs with asset size of ₹ 1,00,000 lakh and above and (c) NBFCs undertaking the following activities
(i) Standalone Primary Dealers (SPDs), (ii) Infrastructure Debt Fund - Non-Banking Financial Companies (IDF-
NBFCs), (iii) Core Investment Companies (CICs), (iv) Housing Finance Companies (HFCs) and (v) Infrastructure
Finance Companies (NBFC-IFCs).

The NBFC-UL comprise of those NBFCs which are specifically identified by RBI as warranting enhanced
regulatory requirement based on a set of parameters and scoring methodology as provided in appendix to SBR
Framework. The top ten eligible NBFCs in terms of their asset size shall always reside in the upper layer,
irrespective of any other factor.

The NBFC-TL will ideally remain empty. This layer can get populated if RBI is of the opinion that there is a
substantial increase in the potential systemic risk from specific NBFC-UL. Such NBFCs shall move to the NBFC-
TL.

Pursuant the SBR Framework the criteria of asset size of non-deposit NBFCs for classification as non-systemically
important has been increased from ₹ 50,000 lakh to ₹ 1,00,000 lakh (“NBFC-ND”). Therefore, non-deposit
NBFCs with asset size of over ₹ 1,00,000 lakh will be considered as risky and will fall under middle layer
(“NBFC-ND-SI/ NBFC-ML”). The SBR Framework came into effect from October 01, 2022 and provides that
from October 01, 2022 references to NBFC-ND shall mean NBFC-BL and all references to NBFC-D and NBFC-
ND-SI shall mean NBFC-ML or NBFC-UL, as the case may be. The SBR Framework clarified that existing
NBFC-ND-SIs having asset size of ₹ 50,000 lakhs and above but below ₹ 1,00,000 lakh (except those necessarily
featuring in NBFC-Middle Layer) will be known as NBFC-BL.

As on the date of this Prospectus the Company falls under the category of NBFC-ML, as its asset size above
1,00,000 lakhs as per the last audited balance sheet. SBR Directions provide that NBFC-ML shall be subject to
regulations as specified in Section III. In addition, regulatory instructions applicable to NBFC-BL as specified in
Section II shall also be applicable to NBFC-ML, unless stated otherwise.

As of the date of this Prospectus, the NBFC-ML are governed by updated SBR Directions and other applicable
laws.

As the regulatory structure envisages scale based as well as activity-based regulation under the SBR Framework,
the following prescriptions shall apply in respect of the NBFCs:

i. NBFC-P2P, NBFC-AA, NOFHC and NBFCs without public funds and customer interface will always remain
in the base layer of the regulatory structure.

307
ii. NBFC-D, CIC, IFC and HFC will be included in middle layer or the upper layer (and not in the base layer),
as the case may be. SPD and IDF-NBFC will always remain in the middle layer.

iii. The remaining NBFCs, viz., Investment and Credit Companies (NBFC-ICC), Micro Finance Institution
(NBFC-MFI), NBFC-Factors and Mortgage Guarantee Companies (NBFC-MGC) could lie in any of the
layers of the regulatory structure depending on the parameters of the scale based regulatory framework.

iv. Government owned NBFCs shall be placed in the base layer or middle layer, as the case may be. RBI Master
Directions define 'NBFC ICC' to mean a company which is a financial institution carrying on as its principal
business of asset finance, the providing of finance whether by making loans or advances or otherwise for any
activity other than its own and the acquisition of securities.

Further, an NBFC may be registered as a NBFC-D or as a NBFC-ND. The RBI has recently harmonised the
categories of NBFCs into: (i) investment and credit companies (which erstwhile consisted of asset finance
companies, investment companies, and loan companies); (ii) infrastructure finance companies; (iii) infrastructure
debt funds; (iv) NBFC – micro finance institutions; and (v) NBFC – factors Regulatory Requirements of an NBFC
under the RBI Act

Regulatory Requirements of an NBFC under the RBI Act

Our Company has been classified as an NBFC-ND-SI pursuant to a Board resolution of the Company dated April
9, 2013. As on date of filing of this Prospectus the Company falls under the category of NBFC ML, as its assets

middle layer (NBFC-ML) shall continue to follow regulations as currently applicable for NBFC-ND-SIs, NBFC-
Ds, CICs, SPDs and HFCs, as the case may be, except for the regulatory changes under SBR Framework
applicable on NBFC-ML.

NBFC-ML

NBFC-ML shall maintain a minimum capital ratio consisting of Tier 1 and Tier 2 capital which shall not be less
than 15 percent of its aggregate risk weighted assets on balance sheet and of risk adjusted value of off-balance

guidelines without sacrificing the spirit underlying the above guidelines and it shall be published on the company's
web-site, if any, for the information of various stakeholders constitution of a nomination committee, a risk

provisions against sub-standard assets, doubtful assets and loss assets in the manner provided for in the SBR
Directions.

As per the SBR Directions every applicable NBFC-ML shall make provision for standard assets at 0.40 per cent
of the outstanding, which shall not be reckoned for arriving at net NPAs. The provision towards standard assets
need not be netted from gross advances but shall be shown separately as 'Contingent Provisions against Standard

Asset Classification

The Master Directions require that every NBFC shall, after 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:

• Standard assets;
• Sub-standard Assets;
• Doubtful Assets; and
• Loss assets

Further, such class of assets would not be entitled to be upgraded merely as a result of rescheduling, unless it
satisfies the conditions required for such upgradation. At present, every NBFC is required to make a provision for

as an NBFC with the RBI and would be required to have a minimum net owned fund of ₹ 200 lakhs. For this
purpose, the RBI Act has defined “net owned fund” to mean:

Net Owned Fund - The aggregate of the paid-up equity capital and free reserves as disclosed in the latest balance

ii. ₹200 lakhs before April 1, 2017

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 a fund is to be
created by every NBFC irrespective of whether it is a ND NBFC or not. 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 appropriation.

Maintenance of liquid assets

The RBI through notification dated January 31, 1998, updated as on 31st May, 2018 has prescribed that every

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.

NBFCs such as our Company, which do not accept public deposits, are subject to lesser degree of regulation as
compared to a NBFC-D and are governed by the RBI’s Master Directions.

An NBFC-ND is required to inform the RBI of any change in the address, telephone no’s, etc. of its Registered
Office, names and addresses of its directors/auditors, names and designations of its principal officers, the specimen
signatures of its authorised signatories, within one month from the occurrence of such an event. Further, an NBFC-
ND would need to ensure that its registration with the RBI remains current.

All NBFCs (whether accepting public deposits or not) having an asset base of ₹10,000 lakhs or more or holding
public deposits of ₹2,000 lakhs or more (irrespective of asset size) as per their last audited balance sheet are
required to comply with the RBI Guidelines for an Asset-Liability Management System.

Similarly, all NBFCs are required to comply with “Know Your Customer Guidelines - Anti Money Laundering
Standards” issued by the RBI, with suitable modifications depending upon the activity undertaken by the NBFC

February 22, 2019, has harmonised different categories of NBFCs into fewer ones, based on the principle of
regulation by activity rather than regulation by entity. Accordingly, RBI has merged the three categories of NBFCs
viz. Asset Finance Companies (AFC), Loan Companies (LCs) and Investment Companies (ICs) into a new
category called NBFC - Investment and Credit Company (NBFC-ICC). Further differential regulations relating to
bank’s exposure to the three categories of NBFCs viz., AFCs, LCs and ICs were harmonised. Further, a deposit
taking NBFC-ICC shall invest in unquoted shares of another company which is not a subsidiary company or a
company in the same group of the NBFC, an amount not exceeding twenty per cent of its owned fund.

Lending against security of gold

The RBI pursuant to the SBR Direction has prescribed that all NBFCs shall maintain a loan to value ratio not
exceeding 75% for loans granted against the collateral of gold jewellery. Provided that the value of gold jewellery
for the purpose of determining the maximum permissible loan, amount shall be the intrinsic value of the gold
content therein and no other cost elements shall be added thereto. NBFCs primarily engaged in lending against
gold jewellery (such loans comprising 50% or more of their financial assets) shall maintain a minimum Tier l
capital of 12%. The SBR Directions has issued guidelines with regard to the following:

311
Where the gold jewellery pledged by a borrower at any one time or cumulatively on loan outstanding is more than
20 grams, NBFCs shall keep a record of the verification of the ownership of the jewellery. The ownership
verification need not necessarily be through original receipts for the jewellery pledged but a suitable document
shall be prepared to explain how the ownership of the jewellery has been determined, particularly in each and
every case where the gold jewellery pledged by a borrower at any one time or cumulatively on loan outstanding
is more than 20 grams.

The gold jewellery accepted as collateral by the NBFC shall be valued by the following method:

The gold jewellery accepted as collateral by the NBFC shall be valued by taking into account the preceding 30
days’ average of the closing price of 22 carat gold as per the rate as quoted by the Bombay Bullion Association
Ltd. (BBA) or the historical spot gold price data publicly disseminated by a commodity exchange regulated by
the Forward Markets Commission.

If the purity of the gold is less than 22 carats, the NBFC shall convert the collateral into 22 carat and state the
exact grams of the collateral. In other words, jewellery of lower purity of gold shall be valued proportionately.
NBFC, while accepting gold as collateral, shall give a certificate to the borrower on their letterhead, of having
assayed the gold and state the purity (in terms of carats) and the weight of the gold pledged. NBFCs may have
suitable caveats to protect themselves against disputes during redemption, but the certified purity shall be applied
both for determining the maximum permissible loan and the reserve price for auction.

The auction shall be conducted in the same town or taluka in which the branch that has extended the loan is
located. NBFCs can however pool gold jewellery from different branches in a district and auction it at any location
within the district, subject to meeting the following conditions:

• The first auction has failed.

• The NBFC shall ensure that all other requirements of the extant directions regarding auction (prior notice,
reserve price, arms-length relationship, disclosures, etc.) are met. Non-adherence to the above conditions
will attract strict enforcement action.

While auctioning the gold the NBFC must declare a reserve price for the pledged ornaments. The reserve price
for the pledged ornaments shall not be less than 85 percent of the previous 30 day average closing price of 22
carat gold as declared by the Bombay Bullion Association Ltd. (BBA) or the historical spot gold price data
publicly disseminated by a commodity exchange regulated by the Forward Markets Commission and value of the
jewellery of lower purity in terms of carats shall be proportionately reduced.

It shall be mandatory on the part of the NBFCs to provide full details of the value fetched in the auction and the
outstanding dues adjusted and any amount over and above the loan outstanding shall be payable to the borrower.

NBFCs shall disclose in their annual reports the details of the auctions conducted during the financial year
including the number of loan accounts, outstanding amounts, value fetched and whether any of its sister concerns
participated in the auction.

NBFCs, which are in the business of lending against collateral of gold jewellery, shall ensure that necessary
infrastructure and facilities are put in place, including safe deposit vault and appropriate security measures for
operating the vault, in each of its branches where gold jewellery is accepted as collateral. This is required to
safeguard the gold jewellery accepted as collateral and to ensure convenience of borrowers. No new branch/es
shall be opened without suitable arrangements for security and for storage of gold jewellery, including safe deposit
vault

Asset Liability Management

The RBI has prescribed the Guidelines for asset liability management (“ALM”) system in relation to NBFCs
through LRM Framework (“LRM Framework”).The LRM Framework provide that the applicable NBFCs
should ensure sound and robust liquidity risk management system, the board of directors of the NBFC shall frame
a liquidity risk management framework which ensures that it maintains sufficient liquidity, including a
cushion of unencumbered, high quality liquid assets to withstand a range of stress events, including those
involving the loss or impairment of both unsecured and secured funding sources. The liquidity risk management
policy should spell out the entity-level liquidity risk tolerance; funding strategies; prudential limits; system for
measuring, assessingand reporting/ reviewing liquidity; framework for stress testing; liquidity planning under
alternative scenarios/formal contingent funding plan; nature and frequency of management reporting; periodical
review of assumptions used in liquidity projection; etc.

The NBFC shall appoint risk management committee (“RMC”) consisting of chief executive officer (“CEO”)/
managing director (“MD") and heads of various risk verticals, who shall be responsible for evaluating the overall
risks faced by the NBFC including liquidity risk. Further, applicable NBFCs have to constitute asset liability
management committee (“ALCO”) consisting of the NBFC’s top management shall be responsible for ensuring
adherence to the risk tolerance/limits set by the board of directors as well as implementing the liquidity risk
management strategy of the NBFC. The CEO/ MD or the Executive Director (ED) should head the Committee.
The role of the ALCO with respect to liquidity risk should include, inter alia, decision on desired maturity profile
and mix of incremental assets and liabilities, sale of assets as a source of funding, the structure, responsibilities
and controls for managing liquidity risk, and overseeing the liquidity positions of all branches. In addition to
RMC and ALCO, applicable NBFCs shall constitute asset liability management support group (“ALM Support
Group”). ALM Support Group consist of the operating staff responsible for analysing, monitoring and reporting
the liquidity risk profile to the ALCO. The maturity profile should be used for measuring the future cash flows of
NBFCs in different time buckets. Within each time bucket, there could mismatches depending on cash inflows
and outflows. While the mismatches up to one year would be relevant since these provide early warning signals
of impending liquidity problems, the main focus shall be on the short-term mismatches, viz., 1-30/ 31 days. The
net cumulative negative mismatches in the statement of structural liquidity in the maturity buckets 1-7 days, 8-14
days, and 15-30 days shall not exceed 10 percent, 10 percent and 20 per cent of the cumulative cash outflows in
the respective time buckets. NBFCs, however, are expected to monitor their cumulative mismatches (running
total) across all other time buckets upto 1 year by establishing internal prudential limits with the approval of the

316
board of directors. NBFCs shall also adopt the above cumulative mismatch limits for their structural liquidity
statement for consolidated operations. Other than liquidity risk the applicable NBFC has to currency risk and
interest rate risk under the terms of LRM Framework.

Foreign Investment Regulations

Foreign investment in Indian securities is regulated through the Consolidated Foreign Direct Investment (“FDI”)
Policy and Foreign Exchange Management Act, 1999 (“FEMA”). The government bodies responsible for granting
foreign investment approvals are the concerned ministries/ departments of the Government of India and the
RBI. The Union Cabinet has approved phasing out the Foreign Investment Promotion Board, as provided
in the press release dated May 24, 2017. Accordingly, pursuant to theoffice memorandum dated June 5,
2017, issued by the Department of Economic Affairs, Ministry of Finance, approval of foreign
investment under the FDI policy has been entrusted to concerned ministries/departments. Subsequently,
the DIPP issued the StandardOperating Procedure (SOP) for Processing FDI Proposals on June 29, 2017
(the “SOP”). The SOP provides a list of the competent authorities for granting approval for foreign investment
for sectors/activities requiring Government approval. For sectors or activities that are currently under
automatic route but which required Government approval earlier as per the extant policy during the
relevant period, the concerned administrative ministry/department shall act as the competent authority (the
“Competent Authority”) for the grant of post facto approval of foreign investment. In circumstances where there
is a doubt as to which department shall act as theCompetent Authority, the DIPP shall identify the Competent

The RBI has issued a circular dated March 21, 2012 stipulating that all NBFCs shall maintain a loan to value ratio
not exceeding 75% for loans granted against the collateral of gold jewellery. NBFCs primarily engaged in lending
against gold jewellery (such loans comprising 50% or more of their financial assets) shall maintain a minimum
Tier l capital of 12% by April 01, 2014. The RBI vide its circular RBI/2013-14/260

and ensure that necessary infrastructure is put in place at the earliest. No new branches should be opened
without suitable storage arrangements having been made thereat. No business of grant of loans against
the security of gold can be transacted at places where there are no proper facilities for storage/security.

ii. Prior approval of RBI for opening branches in excess of 1,000: It is henceforth mandatory for NBFC to
obtain prior approval of the Reserve Bank to open branches exceeding 1,000. However NBFCs which

ownership of the gold jewellery and adequate steps be taken to ensure that the KYC guidelines stipulated
by the Reserve Bank are followed and due diligence of the customer undertaken. Where the gold
jewellery pledged by a borrower at any one time or cumulatively on loan outstanding is more than 20
grams, NBFCs must keep record of the verification of the ownership of the jewellery. The method of
establishing ownership should be laid down as a Board approved policy.

v. Auction Process and Procedures: The following additional stipulations are made with respect to
auctioning of pledged gold jewellery:

a) The auction should be conducted in the same town or taluka in which the branch that has extended the
loan is located.

318

jewellery of lower purity in terms of carats should be proportionately reduced.

c) It will be mandatory on the part of the NBFCs to provide full details of the value fetched in the auction
and the outstanding dues adjusted and any amount over and above the loan outstanding should be payable
to the borrower.

d) NBFCs must disclose in their annual reports the details of the auctions conducted during the financial

Power generation regulations

The Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (“MNRE”) regulations

The MNRE is the Central Government ministry with the mandate for formulating schemes and policies for the
research, development, commercialisation and deployment of renewable energy systems/devices for various
applications in rural, urban, industrial and commercial sector. The MNRE has issued a number of guidelines and
schemes on power generation through renewable sources, including a ‘Special Programme on Small Wind Energy
and Hybrid Systems’. In order to ensure quality of wind farm projects and equipments, the MNRE introduced the
“Revised Guidelines for wind power projects” (“MNRE Guidelines”) on June 13, 1996 for the benefit of state
electricity boards, manufacturers, developers and end-users of energy to ensure proper and orderly growth of the
wind power sector. The MNRE Guidelines are periodically updated and issued. The MNRE Guidelines among
other things makes provision for proper planning, siting, selection of quality equipment, implementation and
performance monitoring of wind power projects. The MNRE Guidelines lay down guidelines for the planned
development and implementation of wind power projects.

The MNRE Guidelines set out the conditions that are required to be met for establishing wind farms and
manufacturing and supplying equipment for wind power projects. These conditions include submission of detailed
project reports, approval of sites for wind power installations, type certification by independent testing and
certification agencies (either the Centre of Wind Energy Technology, Chennai or the International certification
agency). Further, all installations are to be carried out only on sites that are approved for wind power projects by
the MNRE. The MNRE Guidelines stipulate that a no objection certificate will be issued only after analysing the
wind data to ensure adequate availability of wind at the specific site. Also, no approval will be granted for a wind
power project which involves the installation of used wind turbines imported into India.

The Indian Renewable Energy Development Agency Limited (“IREDA”)

The IREDA is a public limited government company under the administrative control of the MNRE and in
engaged in encouraging the production of energy through renewable sources. In this respect, the IREDA offers
financial support to specific projects and schemes for generating electricity and promotes the energy conservation

319
through by improving the efficiency of systems, processes and resources engaged in energy production and
distribution. In particular, the IREDA offers scheme and incentives for the promotion of wind based energy
production.

Electricity Act, 2003

Under the Electricity Act, 2003, which repealed all the earlier enactments pertaining to this sector, the activity of
generation of wind power does not require any license or permission. Persons engaged in the generation of
electricity from wind power are required to register the project being undertaken with State Nodal Agency and
obtain permission for inter-grid connectivity from the utility. The government has also announced National
Electricity Policy in 2005 to guide the development of the electricity sector in India.

The electricity generated from the wind power project can be used for captive consumption, sale to utility or for
transaction under open access as per the prevailing state policy as well as regulatory orders, if any. Various states
have announced administrative policies relating to wheeling, banking and buy-back of power.

Further, the Electricity Act, 2003 also mandates that all regulatory commissions should procure certain percentage
of power generation from renewable energy sources by all distribution companies. As far as the tariff and wheeling
charges are concerned, it is stipulated that they should be decided by respective regulatory commissions as
provided under the Electricity Regulatory Commissions Act, 1998.

Electricity Regulatory Commissions

Electricity Act retains the two-level regulatory system for the power sector. At the central level, the Central
Electricity Regulatory Commission (“CERC”) is responsible for regulating tariff of generating stations owned by
the central government, or those involved in generating or supplying in more than one states and regulating inter-
state transmission of electricity. The State Electricity Regulatory Commissions (“SERCs”) on the other hand
regulate intra-state transmission and supply of electricity within the jurisdiction of each state. CERC and the
SERCs are guided by the National Electricity Policy, 2005, Tariff Policy, 2006 and the National Electricity Plan
while discharging their functions under Electricity Act. The Electricity Regulatory Commissions are also guided
by any direction given by the central government for CERC or the state government for the SERC pertaining to
any policy involving public interest. The decision of the government is final and non-challengeable with respect
to the question that whether directions pertain to policy involving public interest or not. The commissions have
been entrusted with a variety of functions including determining tariff, granting licensees, settling disputes
between the generating companies and the licensees. The Electricity Regulatory Commissions are a quasi-judicial
authority with powers of a civil court and an appeal against the orders of the Commissions lie to the Appellate
Tribunal.

The CERC has notified the CERC (Terms and Conditions for Recognition and Issuance of Renewable Energy
Certificate for Renewable Energy Generation) Regulations on January 14, 2010 to the promotion of power
generation through renewable sources of energy. In this respect, these regulations contemplate two categories of
certificates, solar and non-solar certificate. The CERC has designated the National Load Dispatch Center to issue
registration certificates and undertakes to provide for the floor price (minimum) and forbearance price (maximum)
for non-solar certificates.

Securitisation and Reconstruction of Financial Assets and Enforcement of Security Interest Act, 2002
(“SARFAESI”)

The SARFAESI Act regulates the securitization and reconstruction of financial assets of banks and financial
institutions. The SARFAESI Act provides for measures in relation to enforcement of security interests and rights
of the secured creditor in case of default.

The RBI has issued guidelines to banks and financial institutions on the process to be followed for sales of
financial assets to asset reconstruction companies. These guidelines provide that a bank or a financial institution
or an NBFC may sell financial assets to an asset reconstruction company provided the asset is an NPA. A bank or
financial institution or NBFC may sell a financial asset only if the borrower has a consortium or multiple banking
arrangements and at least 75% by value of the total loans to the borrower are classified as an NPA and at least
75% by the value of the banks and financial institutions in the consortium or multiple banking arrangement agree
to the sale. In addition to the above, a financial asset may be sold by any bank or financial institution where the

320
asset is reported, by the bank financial institution to Central Repository for Information on Large Credit, as an
NPA wherein the principal or interest payment is overdue between 61-90 days.

As per the SARFAESI Amendment Act of 2004, the constitutional validity of which was upheld in a recent
Supreme Court ruling, non-performing assets have been defined as an asset or account of a borrower, which has
been classified by a bank or financial institution as sub-standard, doubtful or loss asset in accordance with
directions or guidelines issued by the RBI. In case the bank or financial institution is regulated by a statutory
body/authority, NPAs must be classified by such bank in accordance with guidelines issues by such regulatory
authority. The RBI has issued guidelines on classification of assets as NPAs. Further, these assets are to be sold
on a “without recourse” basis only.

The SARFAESI Act provides for the acquisition of financial assets by Securitization Company or Reconstruction
Company from any bank or financial institution on such terms and conditions as may be agreed upon between
them. A securitization company or reconstruction company having regard to the guidelines framed by the RBI
may, for the purposes of asset reconstruction, provide for measures such as the proper management of the business
of the borrower by change in or takeover of the management of the business of the borrower, the sale or lease of
a part or whole of the business of the borrower and certain other measures such as rescheduling of payment of
debts payable by the borrower; enforcement of security.

Additionally, under the provisions of the SARFAESI Act, any securitisation company or reconstruction company
may act as an agent for any bank or financial institution for the purpose of recovering its dues from the borrower
on payment of such fee or charges as may be mutually agreed between the parties.

Various provisions of the SARFAESI Act have been amended by the Enforcement of Security Interest and
Recovery of Debt Laws and Miscellaneous Provisions (Amendment) Act, 2016 as also the Insolvency and
Bankruptcy Code, 2016 (which amended S.13 of SARFAESI). As per this amendment, the Adjudicating Authority
under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016 shall by order declare moratorium for prohibiting inter alia any
action to foreclose, recover or enforce any security interest created by the corporate debtor in respect of its property
including any action under the SARFAESI Act.

Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code

The Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016 (“Code”) consolidates laws relating to insolvency, reorganisation,
and liquidation/ bankruptcy of all persons, including companies, individuals, partnership firms and Limited
Liability Partnerships (“LLPs”). The Code has established an Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India to
function as the regulator for all matters pertaining to insolvency and bankruptcy. The Code prescribes a timeline
of 330 days for the insolvency resolution process, which begins from the date the application is admitted by the
NCLT. During this period, the creditors and the debtor shall negotiate and finalise a resolution plan (accepted by
66% of the financial creditors) and in the event, they fail, the debtor is placed in liquidation and the moratorium
lifted. The Code stipulates an interim-moratorium period which would commence after filing of the application
for a fresh start process and shall cease to exist after elapse of a period of 180 days from the date of application.
During such period, all legal proceedings against such debtor should be stayed and no fresh suits, proceedings,
recovery or enforcement action may be initiated against such debtor. However, the Code has also imposed certain
restrictions on the debtor during the moratorium period such as the debtor shall not be permitted to act as a director
of any company or be involved in the promotion or management of a company during the moratorium period. In
light of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Government of India, introduced economic reforms to contribute to the ease
of doing business. One of the reforms introduced is the suspension of the Code for a period of one year. An
ordinance detailing the changes pursuant to this reform is expected to be introduced by the government. Further,
the GoI vide notification dated March 24, 2020 (“Notification”) has amended section 4 of the Code due the
lingering impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Pursuant to the said Notification, Government of India has increased
the minimum amount of default under the insolvency matters from ₹1,00,000 to ₹1,00,00,000.

The Insolvency and Bankruptcy (Insolvency and Liquidation Proceedings of Financial Service Providers
and Application to Adjudicating Authority) Rules 2019 (“IBC Rules, 2019”)

The Code, which regulates the insolvency resolution process for “corporate persons” previously excluded
financial service providers from its purview. With the notification of the IBC Rules, 2019, the provisions of the
Code will apply to financial service providers as well, which are subject to modifications and additional conditions
as set out in the IBC Rules, 2019. Financial service providers are defined to mean persons engaged in the business

NOTES:

1. Effect of public holidays has been ignored as these are difficult to ascertain for future period.
2. As per SEBI MasterCircular, in order to ensure uniformity for payment of interest/redemption on debt
securities, the interest/redemption payment shall be made only on a Working Day. Therefore, if the interest
payment date falls on a non-Working Day, the coupon payment shall be on the next Working Day. However,
the future coupon payment dates would be as per the schedule originally stipulated. In other words, the
subsequent coupon schedule would not be disturbed merely because the payment date in respect of one
particular coupon payment has been postponed earlier because of it having fallen on a holiday. However, if
the redemption date of the debt securities falls on non- Working Day, the redemption proceeds shall be paid
on the previous Working Day.
3. Deemed Date of Allotment has been assumed to be Wednesday, August 07, 2024.
4. The last coupon payment will be paid along with maturity amount at the redemption date.

* Details in annexure
^Yet to be issued

In issuing and maintaining its ratings, India Ratings relies on factual information it receives from issuers and underwriters and from other
sources India Ratings believes to be credible. India Ratings conducts a reasonable investigation of the factual information relied upon by
it in accordance with its ratings methodology, and obtains reasonable verification of that information from independent sources, to the
extent such sources are available for a given security.

The manner of India Ratings factual investigation and the scope of the third-party verification it obtains will vary depending on the
nature of the rated security and its issuer, the requirements and practices in India where the rated security is offered and sold, the
availability and nature of relevant public information, access to the management of the issuer and its advisers, the availability of pre-
existing third-party verifications such as audit reports, agreed-upon procedures letters, appraisals, actuarial reports, engineering reports,
legal opinions and other reports provided by third parties, the availability of independent and competent third-party verification sources
with respect to the particular security or in the particular jurisdiction of the issuer, and a variety of other factors.

Users of India Ratings ratings should understand that neither an enhanced factual investigation nor any third-party verification can ensure
that all of the information India Ratings relies on in connection with a rating will be accurate and complete. Ultimately, the issuer and
its advisers are responsible for the accuracy of the information they provide to India Ratings and to the market in offering documents
and other reports. In issuing its ratings India Ratings must rely on the work of experts, including independent auditors with respect to
financial statements and attorneys with respect to legal and tax matters. Further, ratings are inherently forward-looking and embody
assumptions and predictions about future events that by their nature cannot be verified as facts. As a result, despite any verification of
current facts, ratings can be affected by future events or conditions that were not anticipated at the time a rating was issued or
affirmed.

India Ratings seeks to continuously improve its ratings criteria and methodologies, and periodically updates the descriptions on its website
of its criteria and methodologies for securities of a given type. The criteria and methodology used to determine a rating action are those
in effect at the time the rating action is taken, which for public ratings is the date of the related rating action commentary. Each rating
action commentary provides information about the criteria and methodology used to arrive at the stated rating, which may differ from the
general criteria and methodology for the applicable security type posted on the website at a given time. For this reason, you should
always consult the applicable rating action commentary for the most accurate information on the basis of any given public rating.

Ratings are based on established criteria and methodologies that India Ratings is continuously evaluating and updating. Therefore, ratings
are the collective work product of India Ratings and no individual, or group of individuals, is solely responsible for a rating. All India
Ratings reports have shared authorship. Individuals identified in an India Ratings report were involved in, but are not solely responsible
for, the opinions stated therein. The individuals are named for contact purposes only.

Ratings are not a recommendation or suggestion, directly or indirectly, to you or any other person, to buy, sell, make or hold any
investment, loan or security or to undertake any investment strategy with respect to any investment, loan or security or any issuer.
Ratings do not comment on the adequacy of market price, the suitability of any investment, loan or security for a particular investor
(including without limitation, any accounting and/or regulatory treatment), or the tax-exempt nature or taxability of payments made in
respect of any investment, loan or security. India Ratings is not your advisor, nor is India Ratings providing to you or any other party
any financial advice, or any legal, auditing, accounting, appraisal, valuation or actuarial services. A rating should not be viewed as a
replacement for such advice or services. Investors may find India Ratings ratings to be important information, and India Ratings notes
that you are responsible for communicating the contents of this letter, and any changes with respect to the rating, to investors.

It will be important that you promptly provide us with all information that may be material to the ratings so that our ratings continue to
be appropriate. Ratings may be raised, lowered, withdrawn, or placed on Rating Watch due to changes in, additions to, accuracy of or
the inadequacy of information or for any other reason India Ratings deems sufficient.

Nothing in this letter is intended to or should be construed as creating a fiduciary relationship between India Ratings and you or
between India Ratings and any user of the ratings.

In this letter, “India Ratings” means India Ratings & Research Pvt. Ltd. and any successor in interest.

We are pleased to have had the opportunity to be of service to you. If we can be of further assistance, please email us at
infogrp@indiaratings.co.in

Sincerely,

India Ratings

Analytical Approach
Ind-Ra continues to take a standalone view of KFL to arrive at the ratings.

Detailed Rationale of the Rating Action

Detailed Description of Key Rating Drivers


Maintained Growth Runway and Deepening Presence in Southern Geographies: KFL has successfully established its
presence over three decades in the gold finance business and has managed multiple cycles in this business, during which there
were considerable fluctuations in gold loan prices. KFL has been expanding its franchisee in the core gold finance business while
deepening its presence in south geographies (around 97% of the AUM at end-March 2024) and expanding in non-southern
states (around 3% of AUM). Its gross AUM grew 10% yoy to INR53,103 million at end-March 2024 (FYE23: up 20.9%; FYE22:
15.2%; FYE21:17%), with the AUM per branch for gold loans remaining stable at INR53 million (INR49 million). The lower AUM
growth was account of slower disbursements in 2QFY24 and 3QFY24, as the company focused on managing liquidity. The tier 1
capital ratio improved to 16% in FY24 after a rights issue of INR500 million (FY23: 14.5%; FY22: 14.5%, FY21: 13.6%). KFL’s
network consisted of 986 branches at end-March 2024 (FY23: 986; FYE22: 988; FYE21: 945). The company plans to add
branches in FY25 in the southern states and in selective, profitable non-south geographies.

Stable Asset Quality: The gross non-performing assets (NPA) in gold loans was slightly high at 1% in FY24 (FY23: 0.42%;
FY22: 0.66%; FY21: 0.47%; FY20: 0.47%) because the company did not auction in 3QFY24. The company had displayed
considerable resilience during COVID-19 disruptions and reported modest gross NPA of 0.66% which was the highest in the
history of the company. Although the borrower class is vulnerable, the ultimate credit loss is limited due to the capping of the
loan-to-value (LTV) at 75%, as per regulatory requirements, at the time of disbursements and the liquid nature of the collateral.
Being in the gold loan business, KFL's credit cost has always been modest and less volatile through the loan cycle, leading to
better operating profit buffers. KFL maintains a risk filter, wherein a resolution is initiated if the principal-plus-interest reaches
90% of the collateral value, leading to notice to the borrower. In case of a delay in repayment, it conducts auctions. The company
auctioned gold worth INR576 million in FY24. KFL did not post any losses in auctions in FY24 and was able to recover the entire
outstanding principal and interest amount. The agency believes maintaining of adequate LTV buffers and timely auctions and
recoveries will be critical for KFL to sustain its stable asset quality.

Funding Mix on Path of Diversification: KFL’s banking relationships have improved since FY21, with the total number of banks
and Financial Institutions providing funding to the company rising to 33 as of March 24 (FY21: 12). The company has been able
to raise funds from a mix of public and private sector banks. However, the funds mobilised through the non-convertible
debentures (NCDs) and subordinated debt route still formed a major portion of the funding mix at 51% at end-
March 2024 (FYE23: 58%; FYE22: 66%), followed by bank funding through working capital (end-March 2024: 20%;
FY23:18%; FY22: 19%) and term loans (29%; 20%; 27%). A sustained and substantial increase in the exposure taken by the
banks over the medium term will be a key rating monitorable.

Scope for Improvement in Profitability with Increased Operational Efficiency: KFL’s return on assets reduced slightly 2% in
FY24 (FY23: 2.14%; FY22: 1.87%; FY21: 1.8%), because of the denominator effect. The net interest margin (NIM) reduced to
6.7% (as per Ind-Ra’s calculations) in FY24 (FY23: 7.8%; FY22: 6.7%; FY21: 6.9%), as loans were disbursed by the company at
lower interest rates to counter competition. The cost of funds increased modestly and remained stable at 10.64% in FY24 (FY23:
10.23%; FY22: 10.06%; FY21: 9.98%). KFL increased its proportion of bank funding (FY24: 50% of the total debt; FY23: 42%;
FY22: 34%) which comes at a slightly higher cost of funding than NCDs and subordinated debt. Also, the operating expense to
average total assets remained stable at 3.2% in FY24 (FY23: 3.4%; FY22: 3.5%). The agency believes the trajectory of its
profitability will depend on the company’s improved productivity and its ability to maintain margins and manage credit costs over
the medium term.

Geographically Concentrated Portfolio: KFL’s portfolio is concentrated in southern India, with Tamil Nadu constituting around
55% of the gold loan portfolio at end-March 2024 (FY23: 54%; FY22: 56%; FY21: 53%; FY20: 52%). Tamil Nadu, Kerala,
Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh and Telangana accounted for around 99.5% of the gold loan portfolio at end-March 2024. As per the
company’s strategy, the portfolio is likely to remain concentrated in south India over the medium term. Also, on the funding side,
the funds mobilised through the NCD route remained geographically concentrated, as a major portion is being raised from
Kerala.

Liquidity
Adequate: As per KFL’s end-March 2024 asset-liability statement, the company had a matched asset-liability profile with a
cumulative surplus in all time buckets up-to-one-year. The average asset tenor was nine-to-12 months and the average liability
tenor was around 36 months at end-March 2024. This, along with the highly liquid nature of gold, helps KFL maintain a matched
liquidity profile.

Rating Sensitivities
Positive: Continued profitable growth in the franchisee while maintaining adequate capital buffers, a diversification of funding
avenues with a higher share of bank funding, geographical diversification, and a further improvement in its operational
efficiencies could lead to a positive rating action.

Negative: Any sharp rise in delinquency, which could restrict capital and funding, adverse regulatory development that could
impair the ability of the company to conduct its business and the tier 1 ratio reducing below 13%, on a sustained basis, could
lead to a negative rating action.

ESG Issues
ESG Factors Minimally Relevant to Rating: Unless otherwise disclosed in this section, the ESG issues are credit neutral or
have only a minimal credit impact on KFL, due to either their nature or the way in which they are being managed by the entity.
