We may not be able to successfully manage and maintain our growth.Our business has rapidly grown since our inception in 1992. We have significantly expanded ouroperations and anticipate further expansion of our operations. We have experienced significant growthin terms of our loans portfolio and the number of our branches and employees. Our income fromservices increased at a compounded annual growth rate (“CAGR”) of 146.34% from the fiscal yearended March 31, 2008 to the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011. In this same period, the value of loansadvanced by us against pledged gold increased at a CAGR of 302.20% and our branch networkincreased at a CAGR of 67.91%.Our future growth depends on a number of factors, including increasing our ability to further penetratethe loans against pledge of household, used, gold jewellery (“Gold Loans”) market, the competitivescenario and future regulatory changes. We cannot assure you that we will continue to grow athistorical rates in the future. In addition, we are bound by certain financial covenants under ourfinancing agreements, including requiring us to maintain leverage at specified levels. Our inability tofulfill such covenants may adversely affect our ability to maintain this source of funding and as a result,adversely affect our ability to grow our business.Our future growth also depends on our timely access to, and the cost associated with, raising capital. Ifwe do not have access to financing on terms acceptable to us, our growth could be adversely affected.As we continue to grow, we are required to continue to improve our managerial, technical andoperational knowledge, resources and systems. In addition, we may be required to manage relationshipswith a greater number of customers, third party agents, lenders and other parties. We cannot assure youthat we will not experience issues such as capital constraints, operational difficulties, difficulties inexpanding our existing business and operations and training an increasing number of personnel tomanage and operate our expanding business.Further, we have expanded and will further expand our business into markets outside southern India.We have less experience regarding markets outside southern India, which may lead to difficulties incultivating new customer relationships and managing such operations. Any of these issues may resultin a failure to implement our expansion plans in a timely manner or at all, and we cannot assure youthat any expansion plans, if implemented, will be successful.11


2. Volatility in the market price of gold may adversely affect our financial condition and results ofoperations.We extend loans secured by household, used, gold jewellery. A sharp downward movement in the priceof gold could result in a decline in pledged gold values. Further, a sustained decrease in the marketprice of gold could also cause a decrease in new Gold Loans in our loan portfolio and, as a result, ourinterest income. In addition, customers may not repay their loans and the gold jewellery securing theloans may have decreased significantly in value, resulting in losses which we may not be able tosupport. Although we use a technology-based risk management system and follow strict internal riskmanagement guidelines on portfolio monitoring, which include periodic assessment of loan to securityvalue on the basis of conservative market price levels, limits on the amount of margin, ageing analysisand pre-determined margin call thresholds, we cannot assure you that if the price of gold decreasessignificantly, our financial condition and results of operations would not be adversely affected.3. We face increasing competition in our business which may result in declining margins if we areunable to compete effectively.Our principal business is the provision of personal loans to retail customers in India secured byhousehold, used, gold jewellery. Historically, the Gold Loan industry in India has been largelyunorganised and dominated by local jewellery pawn shops and money lenders, with little involvementfrom public sector or private sector banks. Gold Loan financing was availed predominantly by lowerincome group customers with limited or no access to other forms of credit, however, such incomegroup has gained increased access to capital through organised and unorganised money lenders, whichhas increased our exposure to competition. The demand for Gold Loans has also increased due torelatively lower and affordable interest rates, increased need for urgent borrowing or bridge financingrequirements, the need for liquidity for assets held in gold and increased awareness and acceptance ofGold Loan financing.All of these factors have resulted in increased competition from other lenders in the Gold Loanindustry, including commercial banks and other NBFCs, who also have access to funding fromcustomers‟ savings and current deposits. We are reliant on higher-cost loans and debentures for ourfunding requirements, which may reduce our margins compared to competitors. Our ability to competeeffectively will depend, to some extent, on our ability to raise low-cost funding in the future. If we areunable to compete effectively with other participants in the Gold Loan industry, our business, financialcondition and results of operations may be adversely affected.Furthermore, as a result of increased competition in the Gold Loan industry, Gold Loans are becomingincreasingly standardised. Variable interest rates, variable payment terms and waiver of processing feesare also becoming increasingly common. We cannot assure you that we will be able to react effectivelyto these or other market developments or compete effectively with new and existing competitors.Increasing competition may have an adverse effect on our business, market share and results ofoperations.4. 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 inthe quality of gold or wastage that may occur when melting gold jewellery into gold bars. In the case ofa default, we typically sell the pledged gold through publicly announced auctions in accordance withthe terms of our „auction policy‟. <strong>Manappuram</strong> Jewellers Private <strong>Limited</strong>, a company promoted by thepromoters of the Company also participates in such auctions. All sales made to <strong>Manappuram</strong> JewellersPrivate <strong>Limited</strong> are made for cash at prevailing market price. We cannot assure you that we will be ableto sell such pledged gold at prices sufficient to cover the amounts under default. Moreover, there maybe delays associated with the auction process. Any failure to recover the expected value of pledgedgold could expose us to a potential loss. Any such losses could adversely affect our financial conditionand results of operations.12


5. We are involved in certain legal and other proceedings in India and may face certain liabilities as aresult of the same.We are involved in various civil, consumer and tax related litigation proceedings, which are at differentstages of adjudication. We are involved in litigation for a variety of reasons, which typically arise in thenormal course of business, when we seek to recover our dues from borrowers in default. As of June 30,2011, we were party to two sales tax cases, three service tax proceedings, one income tax case, 64consumer cases, 15 cases filed by owners of branch premises for eviction and one case pending beforethe Supreme Court of India in relation to the requirement to register our branches under the KeralaMoney-lenders Act. As of June 30, 2011, the value of these pending cases other than the 15 cases filedby owners of branch premises for eviction and rent escalation, excluding the provisioning made,aggregates to a sum of Rs. 14.61 million. We are also party to a special leave petition filed in theSupreme Court of India, challenging the applicability of Kerala Money-lenders Act, 1958 to ouractivities and in addition to the above matters, are also involved in certain administrative and legalproceedings pending before the relevant courts and authorities at various levels pursuant to show causenotices and other communications received by us. For further details see ―Outstanding Litigation andDefaults‖ on page 133. If any of the cases pending is decided against us, it may have an adverse effecton our business, reputation, financial condition and results of operations.6. Our business requires substantial capital, and any disruption in funding sources would have anadverse effect on our liquidity and financial condition.Our liquidity and ongoing profitability are, in large part, dependent upon our timely access to, and thecosts associated with, raising capital. Our funding requirements historically have been met from acombination of borrowings such as working capital limits from banks and assigning our loan portfolioto other lenders such as banks, issuance of commercial paper, non-convertible debentures, bonds andequity. Thus, our business depends and will continue to depend on our ability to access diversified lowcost funding sources. The capital and lending markets remained highly volatile post the global creditcrisis and access to liquidity had been significantly reduced. These conditions resulted in increasedborrowing costs and difficulty in accessing debt in a cost-effective manner. In addition, it became moredifficult to renew loans and facilities as many potential lenders and counterparties also faced liquidityand capital concerns as a result of the stress in the financial markets.We are also required under applicable laws and regulations to maintain a capital adequacy ratio as perPrudential Norms Directions of at least 15.0% of our risk-weighted assets, with the minimumrequirement of Tier I capital being 10.0%. Our capital adequacy ratio was 29.13% as of March 31,2011, with Tier I capital comprising 26.36%. If we continue to grow our loan portfolio and asset base,we may be required to raise additional Tier I and Tier II capital in order to continue to meet applicablecapital adequacy ratios with respect to our Gold Loan business. We cannot assure you that we will beable to raise adequate additional capital in the future on terms favourable to us, or at all, which mayadversely affect the growth of our business.We also face maturities of unsecured debt each year. Rs. 10,081 million of our outstanding unsecureddebt matures during the current fiscal year ending March 31, 2012. 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 creditmarkets, or raise equity capital or generate sufficient cash to retire the debt. If we are not able to do so,our financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected.7. Our ability to access capital depends on our credit ratings.The cost and availability of capital is, amongst other factors, also dependent on our short term and longterm credit ratings. Our current rating is P1+ from CRISIL (a subsidiary of Standard & Poor‟s) for ourshort-term debt programme, including commercial paper. CRISIL has also given an A+ rating for ourNCD issues. ICRA <strong>Limited</strong> has given us a LA+ rating for our NCD programme. CARE has given us arating of CARE AA- and Brickwork has given us a rating of BWR AA- for the present Issue. Ratingsreflect a rating agency‟s opinion of our financial strength, operating performance, strategic position,and ability to meet our obligations. The rating agencies reserve the right to suspend, withdraw or reviseratings at any time based on new information or other circumstances. Any downgrade of our creditratings would increase borrowing costs and constrain our access to capital and lending markets and, asa result, would adversely affect our business. In addition, downgrades of our credit ratings could13


increase the possibility of additional terms and conditions being added to any new or replacementfinancing arrangements.8. Our financial performance is particularly vulnerable to interest rate risk.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 interestrate risk exposure of all banks and financial intermediaries in India, including us.Our results of operations are substantially dependent on our net interest margins. Interest rates aresensitive to many factors beyond our control, including the RBI‟s monetary policies, domestic andinternational economic and political conditions and other factors.Our policy is to attempt to balance the proportion of our interest-earning assets, which bear fixedinterest rates, with interest-bearing liabilities. A portion of our liabilities, such as our NCDs,subordinated debt and short term loans carry fixed rates of interest and the remaining are linked to therespective banks' benchmark prime lending rate/base rate. As of March 31, 2011, 57% of ourborrowings were at fixed rates of interest. Moreover, we do not hedge our exposure to interest ratechanges. We cannot assure you that we will be able to adequately manage our interest rate risk in thefuture or be able to 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 andthe interest rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities in different ways. Thus, our results of operationscould be affected by changes in interest rates and the timing of any re-pricing of our liabilitiescompared with the re-pricing of our assets.Furthermore, we are exposed to greater interest rate risk than banks or other NBFCs. In a rising interestrate environment, if the yield on our interest-earning assets does not increase at the same time or to thesame extent as our cost of funds, or, in a declining interest rate environment, if our cost of funds doesnot decline at the same time or to the same extent as the yield on our interest-earning assets, our netinterest income and net interest margin would be adversely affected.Additional risks arising from increasing interest rates include:• reductions in the volume of loans as a result of customers‟ inability to service high interestrate payments; and• reductions in the value of fixed income securities held in our investment portfolio.9. A large number of our branches are located in southern India, and any downturn in the economy ofsouthern India or adverse change in consumer preferences in that region could adversely affect ourresults of operations.As of May 31, 2011, more than 75% of our branches were located in the southern states of Kerala,Tamil Nadu, Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh. As of May 31, 2011, 86% of our Gold Loan advanceswere made through branches located in the southern states of Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Kerala andTamil Nadu out of which about 16% were made through branches located in the state of Kerala alone.Our concentration in states located in southern India exposes us more strongly to any adversegeological, ecological, economic or political circumstance that may arise in that region as compared toother NBFCs or commercial banks that have a more diversified national presence. If there is adownturn in the economy of southern India or an adverse change in consumer preferences in thatregion, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected.10. Inaccurate appraisal of gold by our personnel may adversely affect our business and financialcondition.The accurate appraisal of pledged gold is a significant factor in the successful operation of our businessand such appraisal requires a skilled and reliable workforce. Inaccurate appraisal of gold by ourworkforce may result in gold being overvalued and pledged for a loan that is higher in value than thegold‟s actual value, which could adversely affect our reputation and business.14


Further, we are subject to the risk that our gold appraisers may engage in fraud regarding theirestimation of the value of pledged gold. Any such inaccuracies or fraud in relation to our appraisal ofgold may adversely affect our reputation, business and financial condition.11. Our branches are vulnerable to theft.Storage of pledged gold jewellery as part of our business entails the risk of theft and resulting loss toour reputation and business. The short tenure of the loans advanced by us and our practice ofprocessing loan repayments within short timelines require us to store pledged gold on our premises atall points in time. There have been eight major burglaries at our branches since inception. With regardto all burglaries, we may not be able to recover the entire amount of the loss suffered and may receiveonly a partial payment of the insurance claim. While we are insured against the risk of burglary arisingfrom our business, such insurance may not be sufficient to fully cover the losses we suffer. Further, theactual 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. We alsoreceived a letter from the RBI dated October 11, 2010, wherein the RBI expressed its concernregarding the frequency of burglaries at our branches. Pursuant to the same, while we havestrengthened our security policies and procedures, we cannot guarantee you that theft will not becommitted in the future, which could adversely affect our reputation, business and results of operations.12. We are subject to the risk of fraud by our employees and customers.We are exposed to the risk of fraud and other misconduct by employees and customers. While wecarefully recruit all of our employees and screen all our employees who are responsible fordisbursement of Gold Loans and custody of gold, there have in the past been acts of fraud with respectto Gold Loans and cash related misappropriation committed by our employees. Our customers havealso committed such acts of fraud and misappropriation. The aggregate value involved in these casesduring fiscal year 2011, fiscal year 2010 and fiscal year 2009 was Rs. 24.87 million, Rs. 8.47 millionand Rs. 4.07 million. We are required to report cases of internal fraud to the RBI, which may takeappropriate action. Certain routine inspections have noted that there has been an increase in the numberof frauds committed from nine in Fiscal 2010 to 19 in Fiscal 2011 and also that a reassessment isrequired in the classification adopted by the Company while reporting frauds to the RBI. While wehave risk monitoring policies in place, we cannot guarantee you that such acts will not be committed inthe future, and any such act could adversely affect our reputation, business and results of operations.13. If we are unable to successfully manage the level of non performing assets in our loan portfolio, ourbusiness and financial condition may be adversely affected.The Non-Banking Financial Companies Prudential Norms (Reserve Bank) Directions, 1998 createcertain provisioning requirements with respect to our outstanding loan portfolio. These provisioningrequirements may require us to reserve lower amounts than the provisioning requirements applicable tofinancial institutions and banks in other countries. The provisioning requirements may also require theexercise of subjective judgments of management. As of March 31, 2011, our gross non performingassets (“NPAs”) were Rs. 249.30 million, or 0.39% of our total loans and advances, as compared to Rs.336.66 million, or 1.29% of our total loans and advances as of March 31, 2010. Our provisions fordoubtful loans and advances amounted to Rs. 167.46 million as of March 31, 2011, as compared to Rs.192.12 million as of March 31, 2010. The level of our provisions may not be adequate to cover furtherincreases in the amount of our non-performing loans or a decrease in the value of our pledged gold. Ifsuch provisions are not sufficient to provide adequate cover for loan losses that may occur, or if we arerequired 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. In addition, we cannotassure you that we will not have significant additional NPAs in our loan portfolio in the future onaccount of new loans made or that we will be able to maintain the asset quality of our current loanportfolio.15


14. As part of our business strategy, we assign / securitize a significant portion of receivables from GoldLoans advanced by us, which exposes us to the restrictions and conditions that are contained in theassignment agreements.As of March 31, 2011, the gold and hypothecation loans assigned to banks, financial institutions andothers aggregated to Rs. 11,182.83 million constituting 14.93% of our gross gold loan portfolio inprincipal amount. We sanction and provide loans and then assign / securitize a portion of our loanportfolio to banks. The assignment / securitization transactions are conducted on the basis of internalestimates of our funding requirements, and may vary from time to time. Any change in RBI or othergovernment regulations in relation to assignments or securitisations by NBFCs could have an adverseimpact on our assignment / securitization program.In the event the relevant bank does not realise the receivables due under such loans, the relevant bankwould have recourse to the corporate guarantee, cash collateral and the underlying security, in the eventsuch loans are secured. Some of these agreements also require us to obtain the consent of the relevantbank before entering into any new line of business and certain such banks have a right of first refusal topurchase receivables from us and our group companies. We are also liable to indemnify the relevantbanks in the occurrence of an event of default. We make a general provision for all loans and specificprovisions on our non-performing loans. Further any downgrade in the ratings of our securitized debtmay lead to additional collaterals or corporate guarantees required to be provided. In the event thecorporate guarantee and/or cash collateral underlying the security and general provisioning areinadequate, and the loans are put back to us, this could have a material adverse effect on our operatingresults and financial condition.15. We have entered into assignment agreements to sell certain loans from our outstanding loanportfolio. If such assignment of loans is held to be unenforceable under applicable law, ourbusiness, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.From time to time we sell and assign a group of similar loans from our outstanding loan portfolio tofinancial institutions in return for an upfront fixed consideration. As of March 31, 2011, ouroutstanding portfolio of assigned loans was Rs. 11,182.83 million, constituting 14.93% of our grossGold Loan portfolio in principal amount. As a part of such transactions, we provide credit enhancementthrough fixed deposits with banks or issue corporate guarantees to the purchaser for an amount equal toa negotiated percentage of the value of the loans being assigned. In January 2009, the High Court ofGujarat held that the provisions of the Banking Regulation Act, 1949 do not permit banks to assigndebt due to them, including the assignment of debt between two banks. However, on appeal, theSupreme Court of India reversed the decision of the Gujarat High Court and held that a bank to banktransfer of debt is not barred by law. If, in the future, one or more of the assignment agreements enteredinto by us is held to be unenforceable by a court of law, we may be required to terminate theassignment agreement(s) In addition, if such assignments of loans are sought to be regulated includingby way of securitization guidelines issued by the RBI, it could adversely affect our ability to raiseresources through loan assignments. Such events may adversely affect our business, financial conditionand results of our operations and our ability to assign our loans.16. We are subject to certain restrictive covenants in our loan agreements, which may restrict ouroperations and ability to expand our business.We have entered into certain loan agreements in respect of our borrowings, which contain certainrestrictive covenants or require us to obtain approval from the lender in certain circumstances fordisposing of (including creating a charge on) our specified assets, undertaking any merger orreorganisation, entering into a new line of business, declaring dividends in certain circumstances,amending our memorandum and articles of association, making substantial change to the general natureor scope of our business, incurring or assuming any debt, diluting the Promoters‟ equity share holdingsin our Company beyond certain agreed thresholds, reducing our share capital and making a substantialchange in our management. We cannot assure you that consents or waivers in connection with theapplication of any of these restrictive covenants could be granted in the future. Some of our lendershave a right to appoint a nominee director on the Board even before the occurrence of a default. Theoccurrence of any of these events could adversely affect our financial condition and results ofoperations.16


17. A routine inspection by the RBI has indicated certain deficiencies in the process that has beenfollowed by us to conduct in auctions.A routine inspection has noted that there is a considerable time gap between the date of a loanbecoming overdue and the implementation of the auction procedure. This would imply that theconcerned customer would be required to pay the interest for such time period. Certain branches hadalso not maintained details of the auction such as the details of bid amounts, list of successful bidders,successful bid amounts, mode of payment of bid amount etc. It has also been indicated that an auctionsurplus of Rs. 95.86 million was lying with the Company as on March 31, 2011 that were ploughedback into the Company as working capital funds. This amount has been required to return to theconcerned borrowers or transferred to an escrow account to avoid it from being treated as public funds.Although we are in the process of implementing steps to rectify these deficiencies, any delay or failurein such implementation may subject us to penalties from the RBI.18. We have entered into, and will continue to enter into, related party transactions.We have entered into transactions with several related parties, including our Promoters, Directors andGroup Companies. We cannot assure you that we could not have achieved more favourable terms hadsuch transactions been entered into with unrelated parties. Furthermore, it is likely that we will enterinto related party transactions in the future. The transactions we have entered into and any futuretransactions with our related parties have involved or could potentially involve conflicts of interest. Thefollowing are summary transactions with related parties as per Accounting standard 18 issued under theCompanies Accounting Standard Rules entered into by us during the periods indicated:• Debentures issued aggregating to Rs. 47.57 million during the fiscal year 2011 and Rs. 273.31million during the fiscal year 2010;• Debentures redeemed aggregating to Rs. 62.04 million during the fiscal year 2011 and Rs.255.54 million during the fiscal year 2010;• Subscription of Equity Shares by relative of key management personnel aggregating to Rs.1,000 million during the fiscal year 2011 and subscription of share warrants by keymanagement personnel aggregating to Rs. 230.76 million during the fiscal year 2010;• Donation of Rs. 6.20 million made to <strong>Manappuram</strong> Foundations during the fiscal year 2011;and• Sale of gold to <strong>Manappuram</strong> Jewellers Private <strong>Limited</strong> aggregating to Rs. 972.70 millionduring the fiscal year 2011and Rs. 140.24 million during the fiscal year 2010.Further certain transactions for the purchase and sale of services from/to parties covered under Section297 of the Companies Act, 1956 contravened the said provision. These offences have since beencompounded vide order of the Company Law Board, Chennai Bench dated August 31, 2009. Forfurther details regarding our related party transactions, see “Auditor Examination Report andReformatted Statements” on page 182 and ―Our Business - Merger of MAFIT with Our Company‖ onpage 89.19. Our Promoters, Directors and related entities have interests in a number of companies similar toours, which may result in potential conflicts of interest with us.Certain decisions concerning our operations or financial structure may present conflicts of interestamong our Promoters, Directors, executive officers and other shareholders. Commercial transactions inthe future between us and related parties could result in conflicting interests. A conflict of interest mayoccur between our business and the business of our Promoter group companies which could have anadverse affect on our operations. Two of our Group Companies, <strong>Manappuram</strong> Benefit Fund <strong>Limited</strong>and <strong>Manappuram</strong> Asset <strong>Finance</strong> <strong>Limited</strong>, are also engaged in the business of advancing Gold Loans. Inaddition, certain sole proprietorships owned by our Promoter, V.P. Nandakumar, are involved in thebusiness of advancing Gold Loans. Conflicts of interest may also arise out of common businessobjectives shared by us, our Promoters, directors and their related entities. Our Promoters, directors andtheir related entities may compete with us and have no obligation to direct any opportunities to us. We17


cannot assure you that these or other conflicts of interest will be resolved in an impartial manner, andany of these conflicts could adversely affect our business and results of operations.20. Our entire customer base comprises individual borrowers, who generally are more likely to beaffected by declining economic conditions than larger corporate borrowers.Individual borrowers typically are less financially resilient than larger corporate borrowers, and as aresult, they are typically more adversely affected by declining economic conditions. In addition, asignificant 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 inIndia, so there is less financial information available about individuals, particularly our focus customersegment of the low to medium income group. It is therefore difficult to carry out precise credit riskanalyses on our customers. While we follow certain procedures to evaluate the credit profile of ourcustomers before we sanction a loan, we generally rely on the quality of the pledged gold rather than ona stringent analysis of the credit profile of our customers. Although we believe that our riskmanagement controls are sufficient, we cannot be certain that they will continue to be sufficient or thatadditional risk management policies for individual borrowers will not be required. Failure to maintainsufficient credit assessment policies, particularly for individual borrowers, could adversely affect ourloan portfolio, which could in turn have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results ofoperations.21. A rise in the general income level of our customers may adversely affect the demand for our loans.The size of our Gold Loan portfolio is dependent upon the demand for Gold Loans in India, which isinversely related to the general income level of our customers. A rise in the general income level inIndia could make our loans unattractive to some customers due to their having increased disposableincome, making them less reliant on loans, including Gold Loans. Such a shift in income levels couldlower our interest income, which could in turn adversely affect our business, financial condition andresults of operations.22. Major lapses of control, system failures or calamities could adversely affect our business.We are vulnerable to risks arising from the failure of employees to adhere to approved procedures,failures of security systems, computer system disruptions, communication systems failure and datainterception during transmission through external communication channels and networks. Failure toprevent or detect such breaches in security or data and communications errors may adversely affect ouroperations.Despite our internal controls, policies and procedures, certain matters such as fraud and embezzlementcannot be eliminated entirely given the cash nature of our business. If we fail to maintain and continueto enhance our internal controls, policies and systems, we may be unable to prevent fraud, securitybreaches or system failures.Our business is increasingly dependent on our ability to process, on a daily basis, a large number oftransactions. Our financial, accounting or other data processing systems may fail to operate properly orbecome disabled as a result of events that are wholly or partially beyond our control, including adisruption of electrical or communications services.If any of these systems do not operate properly or are disabled, or if there are other shortcomings orfailures in our internal processes or systems, financial loss, disruption of our business, regulatoryintervention or damage to our reputation may result. In addition, our ability to conduct business may beadversely affected by a disruption in the infrastructure that supports our businesses and the localities inwhich we are located. Our operations also rely on the secure processing, storage and transmission ofconfidential and other information in our computer systems and networks. Our computer systems,software and networks may be vulnerable to unauthorized access, computer viruses or other maliciouscode and other events that could compromise data integrity and security.Constant connectivity between our branches across India and our head office is key to the functioningof our business. Each of our branches accesses the <strong>Manappuram</strong> data centre through the Internet, andall data is stored centrally in the <strong>Manappuram</strong> data centre. Data is replicated at our Disaster Recovery18


Centre in Chennai. While we are seeking to provide each branch with two internet connections forredundancy to protect our systems in the event of failure of a broadband connection, as of May 31,2011, we have not yet provided approximately 500 of our branches with such redundancy. Our disasterrecovery system is fully operational and we continue to engage in technical exercises to test andimprove our disaster plan. A study completed by IBM identified certain areas for improvement in ourIT support processes. As a result, we are in the process of setting up a service desk, service deliveryand service support in the near future.23. The RBI has altered and may further alter regulations relating to priority sector advances.The RBI currently mandates domestic commercial banks operating in India to maintain an aggregate40.0% (32.0% for foreign banks) of their adjusted net bank credit or credit equivalent amount of offbalance sheet exposure, whichever is greater, as “priority sector advances”. These include advances toagriculture, small enterprises, exports and similar sectors where the Government seeks to encourage theflow of credit to stimulate economic development in India. As these commercial banks are unable tomeet these requirements, they often rely on specialised institutions, including microfinance institutions(“MFIs”) and other financing companies, to provide them with access to qualifying advances throughlending programs and loan assignments. These bank requirements result in significant funding for themicrofinance sector. However, by way of a circular dated February 2, 2011, the RBI has clarified thatloans sanctioned to NBFCs for on-lending to individuals or other entities against the security of goldjewellery, are not eligible for classification as loans made to the agricultural sector. Further,investments made by commercial banks in securitised assets originated by NBFCs, where theunderlying assets are loans against gold jewellery, then the assignment of gold loan portfolio fromNBFCs are also not eligible for classification under agriculture sector. To the extent that similarchanges in RBI regulations eliminate or reduce the need of banks for priority sector advances ormodifies the understanding of the concept of MFIs, less capital would be available to MFIs and otherfinancing companies, such as ours. In such event, our access to funds and the cost of our capital wouldbe adversely affected, which may in turn adversely affect our financial condition and results ofoperations.24. In order to successfully manage and expand our business, we must be able to attract, train, motivateand retain key employees.In order to successfully manage and expand our business, we must be able to attract, train, motivate andretain highly skilled employees, especially branch managers and gold appraisal personnel. If we cannothire additional personnel or retain existing qualified personnel, our ability to expand our business willbe impaired and our revenues could decline. Our ability to hire and retain qualified and skilledmanagers and sales representatives is critical to our future, and competition for experienced employeesin the Gold Loan industry may be significant. In addition, we may not be able to hire and retain enoughskilled and experienced employees to replace those who leave or may not be able to re-deploy. We alsomay not be able to retain the proper mix of employees to follow trends in technology, evolving industrystandards and changing customer preferences. Any failure by us to hire or retain key employees couldhave an adverse impact on our business and results of operations.25. Our insurance may not be adequate to protect us against all potential losses to which we may besubject.We maintain insurance for our free hold real estate and tangible properties, including gold and cash,and infrastructure at all premises, which provides insurance cover against loss or damage by fire aswell as against natural calamities including earthquake and floods. Further we maintain insurance foremployee fidelity, cash and gold in the branch premises and in transit, which provides insurance coveragainst loss or damage by employee theft, house breaking and hold up. However, the amount of ourinsurance coverage may be less than the replacement cost of all covered property and may not besufficient to cover all financial losses that we may suffer should a risk materialise. There are manyevents that could significantly affect our operations, or expose us to third party liabilities, for which wemay not be adequately insured. If we were to incur a significant liability for which we were not fullyinsured, it could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.19


26. Our business is highly regulated and we may be adversely affected by future regulatory changes.Further, The restrictions imposed on NBFCs by the RBI through a Master Circular dated July 1,2010 may restrict our ability to obtain bank financing for specific activities.We are required under applicable laws and regulations to maintain a capital adequacy ratio as perPrudential Norms Directions of at least 15.0% of our risk-weighted assets, with the minimumrequirement of Tier I capital being 10.0%. Our capital adequacy ratio was 29.13% as of March 31,2011, with Tier I capital comprising 26.36%.In addition to the above, we are also subject to the corporate, taxation and other laws in effect in Indiawhich require continued monitoring and compliance. The introduction of additional governmentcontrol or newly implemented laws and regulations, depending on the nature and extent thereof and ourability to make corresponding adjustments, may adversely affect our business, results of operations andfinancial condition. In particular, decisions taken by regulators concerning economic policies or goalsthat are inconsistent with our interests could adversely affect our results of operations. These laws andregulations and the way in which they are implemented and enforced may change from time to timeand we cannot assure you that future legislative or regulatory changes will not have an adverse effecton our business, financial condition and results of operations. The Micro <strong>Finance</strong> Institutions(Development and Regulation) Bill, 2011 promulgated by the Ministry of <strong>Finance</strong> in June 2011, ifnotified as legislation could be relevant in this regard. Further, as per the Monetary Policy Statementthat was released by the RBI on May 03, 2011, the RBI seeks to issue detailed guidelines on NBFCsfunctioning as micro finance institutions.The RBI has also designated certain activities that may be carried on by NBFCs as being ineligible forbank credit. These activities include rediscounting of bills by NBFCs (except in certain specific cases)and investment in shares or debentures of any other company. Banks are also prohibited from grantingbridge loans of any nature, or interim finance against capital/debenture issues to NBFCs. Under theRBI Master Circular No. RBI/2010-11/68 DBOD No.Dir.BC.14/13.03.00/2010-11 issued on July 1,2010, the exposure (both lending and investment, including off balance sheet exposures) of a bank to asingle NBFC cannot exceed 10.0% of the bank's capital funds as per its last audited balance sheet.Banks may, however, assume exposures on a single NBFC up to 15.0% of their capital funds providedthe exposure in excess of 10.0% is on account of funds on-lent by the NBFC to the infrastructuresector. Further, banks may also consider fixing internal limits for their aggregate exposure to allNBFCs. These rules limit the exposure that banks may have on NBFCs such as us, which may restrictour ability to borrow from such banks and may increase our cost of borrowing, which could adverselyimpact our growth and results of operations.Additionally, we are required to make various filings with the RBI, the Registrar of Companies,Securities and Exchange Board of India and other relevant authorities pursuant to the provisions of RBIregulations, the Companies Act and other regulations. If we fail to comply with these requirements, ora regulator claims we have not complied with these requirements, we may be subject to penalties andcompounding proceedings. For instance, in the past, we have needed to approach the Company LawBoard for condoning the delay in filing certain forms and had to pay certain penalties. We havereceived inspection reports from the RBI on a timely basis. Based on the recent RBI inspection reportdated June 4, 2011, the RBI has, inter alia, highlighted matters relating to improper and unfilledapplication forms, deficiencies in our fair practices code, delay in auction of gold and deficiencies inthe Pawn Ticket. We replied to the inspection report on June 6, 2011. However, the issues raised in theRBI inspection report may not be resolved in our favour, resulting in sanctions, which may have anadverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations.Further, pursuant to a Master Circular dated July 1, 2010, the RBI has imposed certain restrictions onNBFCs relating to the availability of bank financing. Under this Master Circular, certain NBFCactivities are ineligible for financing by bank credit, such as certain types of discounting andrediscounting of bills arising from the sale of commercial vehicles and unsecured loans or NCDs madeby NBFCs in other companies. In addition to the above, (i) banks are not permitted to grant bridgeloans of any nature, provide interim finance against capital or debenture issues and/or in the form ofloans of a temporary nature pending the raising of long term funds from the market by way of capital,deposits, or other means to any category of NBFCs; (ii) shares and debentures are not permitted to beaccepted as collateral securities for secured loans granted to NBFCs; and (iii) banks are not permittedto execute guarantees covering inter-company deposits or loans that guarantee refund of deposits or20


loans accepted by NBFCs. The Master Circular also advises that guarantees should not be issued bybanks for the purpose of indirectly enabling the placement of deposits with NBFCs. All theaforementioned restrictions may adversely affect our access to availability of bank finance, which mayin turn adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.27. If interest rate restrictions are imposed on lending by NBFCs, our operating results and financialcondition may be adversely affected.We are subject to laws and regulations by Indian governmental authorities, including the RBI. Theremay be future changes in the regulatory system or in the enforcement of the laws and regulations thatcould adversely affect us. For instance, a number of states in India have enacted laws to regulatetransactions involving money lenders. These state laws establish maximum rates of interest that can becharged by a person lending money. The RBI, however, has not established a ceiling on the rate ofinterest that can be charged by an NBFC in our sector of operations. Currently, the RBI requires thatthe board of all NBFCs adopt an interest rate model taking into account relevant factors such as the costof funds, margin and risk premium. The rate of interest and the approach for gradation of risk and therationale for charging different rates of interest for different categories of borrowers are required to bedisclosed to the borrowers in the application form and expressly communicated in the sanction letter.If, in the future, the RBI imposes an interest rate ceiling on lending by NBFCs, our operating resultsand financial condition may be adversely affected.We may also fall within the ambit of the Usurious Loans Act, 1918 in the event that any of our loanagreements are litigated. While the legislation contains no stipulation as to what rate of interest wouldamount to an excessively high rate of interest, certain states in which our branches are located haveenacted amendments that have fixed such rates of interest at approximately 12.00% per annum forsecured loans. If any of our branches were to fall within the ambit of the Usurious Loans Act, 1918, wemay be subject to penalties and be forced to reduce interest rates accordingly, which could have anadverse effect on our business and results of operations.The National Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development has, on behalf of the RBI, issued a draftmicrofinance bill which has been released for suggestions by stakeholders. Further, the RBI set up a theMalegam committee to study issues and concerns in the microfinance sector which provided theMalegam Committee Report. The Malegam Committee Report has made various operational andfinancial recommendations on the microfinance sector and on the basis of the same we may getclassified as an MFI. If this bill is passed or the Malegam Committee Report adopted, we may becovered by its provisions and consequently, restricted in our activities, which may adversely affect ourbusiness and results of operations.28. Our inability to obtain, renew or maintain our statutory and regulatory permits and approvalsrequired to operate our business may have an adverse effect on our business.NBFCs in India are subject to strict regulation and close supervision by the RBI. In addition to thenumerous conditions required for the registration as an NBFC with the RBI, we are required tomaintain certain statutory and regulatory permits and approvals for our business. In the future, we willbe required to renew such permits and approvals and obtain new permits and approvals for anyproposed operations. We cannot assure you that the relevant authorities will issue any or all suchpermits or approvals in our anticipated timeframe or at all. Failure by us to renew, maintain or obtainthe required permits or approvals may result in the interruption of our operations and may have amaterial adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.29. The implementation of our KYC norms as well as our measures to prevent money laundering maynot be completely effective, which could adversely affect our reputation and in turn have an adverseimpact on our business and results of operations.Our implementation of anti-money laundering measures required by the RBI, including KYC policiesand the adoption of anti-money laundering and compliance procedures in all our branches, may not becompletely effective. There can be no assurance that attempts to launder money using us as a vehiclewill not be made. If we were associated with money laundering, our reputation may be adverselyaffected, which in turn could have an adverse impact on our business and results of operations.21


30. We are required to comply with the requirements of certain labour laws which may imposeadditional costs on us.Our branches are required to be registered under the relevant shops and establishments laws andverifications under Standards of Weights and Measures Act, 1976 of the states in which they arelocated. The shops and establishment laws regulate various employment conditions, including workinghours, holidays, leave and overtime compensation. Some of our branches have not applied for suchregistration and other branches have pending applications for registration. We have received noticesfrom labour authorities of Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Kerala and Tamil Nadu pursuant to shops andestablishments laws for violating the norms laid down under such statutes, including the number ofpermitted working days for these branches. We have replied to these notices and applied forexemptions to keep these branches open seven days a week. If we fail to obtain or retain any of theseapprovals, exemptions or licenses, or renewals thereof, in a timely manner, or at all, our business maybe adversely affected. If we fail to comply, or a regulator claims we have not complied, with anyconditions, our certificate of registration may be suspended or cancelled and we may not be able tocarry on such activities.In addition, our employees are required to be registered under the provisions of certain labour lawssuch as the Employees‟ State Insurance Act, 1948, the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972 the Kerala Shopsand Commercial Establishments Act, 1960, the Kerala Labour Welfare Fund Act, 1975, and theEmployees Provident Fund and Miscellaneous Provisions Act, 1952. We are also required to maintaincertain records under the provisions of these laws, which add to our costs. Certain claims have alsobeen raised against us for non compliance with the provisions of the Minimum Wages Act, 1948 andthe Maternity Benefits Act, 1961. If we are subject to penalties under these labour laws or if we do notobtain the requisite approvals, our business, financial condition and results of operations may beadversely affected.31. We do not currently own the trademark to the “<strong>Manappuram</strong>” logo.The “<strong>Manappuram</strong>” logo is registered with the Registrar of Trademarks in India under Class 36 in thename of our Promoter, V. P. Nandakumar. The trademark has been licensed to us for use on a nonexclusive,non-assignable basis for a period of ten years by way of a licensing agreement entered intoby us with V. P. Nandakumar on December 18, 2007. We cannot assure you that we will continue tohave the uninterrupted use and enjoyment of the “<strong>Manappuram</strong>” logo if we are unable to renew thelicense agreement. Further, renewal of the agreement may be on terms and conditions that areunfavorable to us. Termination, non renewal or renewal on unfavourable terms of this licensingagreement may adversely affect our business, reputation, goodwill, financial condition and results ofoperations.All of our Group Companies use the “<strong>Manappuram</strong>” name and logo. If the actions of our Promoters orour Group Companies damage the “<strong>Manappuram</strong>” name, our reputation, business and financialcondition may in turn be adversely affected.32. We face difficulties and incur additional expenses in operating from rural and semi urban areas,where infrastructural facilities are limited.A significant portion of our operations are conducted in rural and semi urban areas. We face certaindifficulties in conducting such operations, such as accessing power facilities, transporting people andgoods and maintaining profitability at branches in remote areas. We may also face increased costs inimplementing security measures and expanding our advertising presence. We cannot assure you thatsuch costs will not increase in the future as we expand our network in rural and semi urban areas.33. We depend on customer-supplied information when evaluating customer credit worthiness.In deciding whether to extend credit or enter into other transactions with customers and counter parties,we may rely on information furnished to us by or on behalf of our customers, including the financialinformation from which we create our credit assessments. We may also rely on customerrepresentations as to the accuracy and completeness of customer-supplied information. Any relevantchanges in this information may not be made available to us. The information that we have gatheredmay not be sufficient to create a complete customer risk profile. Because we rely on such customer-22


supplied information, some or all of certain customers‟ risk profiles may be willfully or inadvertentlywrong or misleading, which may lead us to enter into transactions that may adversely affect ourfinancial condition and results of operations.34. Our foreign currency exchange business may be adversely affected by exchange rate fluctuationsand is required to adhere to strict know-your-customer (“KYC”) norms.Our income from our foreign currency exchange business for the financial year ended March 31, 2011was Rs. 0.54 million and forms 2.69% of our total income from fee based services. We are authorisedto conduct this business under the Authorised Dealer II license (“AD II license”) that has been grantedto us by the RBI. Engaging in the foreign currency exchange business requires us to adhere to all theterms that are contained in our AD II license, including periodic statements to the RBI and strictcompliance with KYC norms. Any failure by us to comply with such reporting requirements and KYCnorms may result in the imposition of significant penalties, which could adversely affect our financialcondition and results of operations.35. Our money transfer business is strictly regulated by the RBI money transfer service scheme.Our income from our money transfer business for the financial year ended March 31, 2011 was Rs.1.92 million and constituted 95.65% of our total income from fee based services. Our money transferbusiness is required to adhere to the requirements of the RBI money transfer service scheme withregard to the nature of transactions permitted to be undertaken. The RBI has imposed strict KYCrequirements for agents as well as sub-agents of foreign principals who are engaged in providingmoney transfer services. These KYC requirements would require us to adapt our policies on customeracceptance, customer identification, monitoring of transactions and risk management in relation to ourmoney transfer business. Compliance with these requirements may increase costs and could adverselyaffect our money transfer business.36. All of our branches are located on leased premises and non renewal of lease agreements or theirrenewal on terms unfavourable to us could adversely affect our operations.All of our branches are located on leased premises. Any failure to renew the lease agreements for thesepremises on terms and conditions favourable to us may require us to move certain branches to newpremises. We may incur considerable expenses in relation to such relocations, which may adverselyaffect our results of operations.Further, some branch owners have also filed suits to evict us from certain premises. We are currentlyinvolved in 15 such suits. Some of our lease agreements for our branches may not be adequatelystamped or registered with the registering authority of appropriate jurisdiction, which may adverselyaffect our rights in such litigations. If any of these litigations are not resolved in our favour, ourbusiness and results of operations may be adversely affected.37. We do not hold sole title to the land on which our registered office is located.The land on which our registered office is located is jointly registered in our name and in the name ofone of our Group Companies, <strong>Manappuram</strong> Benefit Fund <strong>Limited</strong> (“MBFL”). We have not entered intoany arrangement to lease the land from MBFL. If MBFL requires us to relocate our registered office ordecides to relocate its registered office, we may face additional costs and other logistical difficulties incarrying out such a relocation, which may adversely affect our financial condition and operations.38. Our Promoters have given personal guarantees in relation to certain debt including assignmentfacilities provided to us, which if revoked may require alternative guarantees, repayment of amountsdue or termination of the facilities.Our Promoters have given personal guarantees aggregating to Rs. 6,636.02 million in relation to certaindebt including assignment facilities provided to us, which is the total limit sanctioned to us under suchdebt including assignment facilities. In the event that any of the guarantees are revoked, the lenders forsuch facilities may require alternate guarantees, repayment of amounts outstanding under such facilitiesor may terminate such facilities. We may not be successful in procuring guarantees satisfactory to thelenders, and as a result may need to repay outstanding amounts under such facilities or seek additional23


sources of capital, which could adversely affect our financial condition.39. Our Promoters have pledged Equity Shares under the terms of certain loan agreements that one ofour Promoters have entered into. Such agreements also contain certain restrictive provisions.One of our Promoters, Sushama Nandakumar, has availed of a loan of Rs. 1,000.00 million fromReligare Finvest <strong>Limited</strong> (“Religare”) pursuant to a loan agreement dated August 12, 2010 (the “LoanAgreement”). She has also availed of a loan of Rs. 350.00 million from Aditya Birla <strong>Finance</strong> <strong>Limited</strong>(“ABFL”) by way of sanction letters dated December 28, 2010 and March 29, 2011 (collectively the“Sanction Letters”). The security for the Religare loan is in part a pledge of the purchasedunencumbered Equity Shares of the Company by both our Promoters up to 2.5 times of the loanamount availed of, not lesser than a market value of Rs. 2,500.00 million. Upon the occurrence of anevent of default as described in the Loan Agreement, Religare is entitled to sell the pledged shares byway of an auction or private arrangement without court intervention. Religare is also entitled to recallthe loan and demand payment at any point in time depending on risk perception. The margin of theloan is 40.0% of the value of the securities pledged and if the market value of our shares falls below2.25 times the principal amount of the loan, our Promoters are required to provide additionalunencumbered shares to increase the margin to 2.5 times the principal amount of the loan within oneworking day. As of May 31, 2011, our Promoters have pledged 31,576,110 Equity Shares withReligare, which amounts to 7.57% of our paid up equity share capital.Further, pursuant to the terms contained in the Sanction Letters, our Promoter Mr. V. P. Nandakumarhas pledged a total of 6,500,000 Equity Shares with ABFL as on May 31, 2011. This amounts to 0.78%of our paid up capital as on that date. As per the terms of the loan arrangement with ABFL, the EquityShares are pledged at a margin of 50.00% and in case of a margin shortfall, the same would have to berecouped by the pledge of additional Equity Shares. However, any margin shortfall due to a reductionin share price beyond 30.00% would have to be recouped by way of repayment. We cannot assure youthat the interest and/or principal amount of these loans will be repaid on time or that an adequatemargin will be maintained at all times, which could result in a sale by of the pledged shares. A decreasein Promoter holding below agreed thresholds could amount to an event of default under certain of ourloan agreements. The occurrence of any of these risks may adversely affect our financial condition andresults of operations.40. We have certain contingent liabilities which may adversely affect our financial condition.As of March 31, 2011, we had certain contingent liabilities. The contingent liability of amountsdisclosed in our Financial Statements represents estimates and assumptions of our management basedon advice received.For further information on such contingent liabilities, see Schedule 18 to our Reformatted Statements.In the event that any of these contingent liabilities materialise, our financial condition may be adverselyaffected.41. A routine inspection by the RBI in June 2011 has indicated certain deficiencies in the maintenanceand upkeep of our loan documentation including certain identity related documentation.A routine inspection by the RBI has indicated certain deficiencies in our loan documentation. It hasbeen indicated that certain branches had failed to maintain a record of identity related documentsobtained from borrowers. Certain branches had also failed to maintain a record of the specific schemeunder which particular loans were sanctioned or the rate of interest that was chargeable to the specificborrower. It has also been indicated that in relation to loans that are treated as being advanced to theagricultural sector, certain branches had failed to obtain the relevant documents such as tax receipt forland, details of holding etc. Certain details were also omitted to be filled up in the demand promissorynote issued in relation to the repayment of the loan. While we are in the process of rectifying thesedefects, any delay or failure in doing so may subject us to a penalty being imposed in this regard by theRBI.24


42. We, our Executive Chairman, and certain of our employees are parties to a criminal proceeding.We, our Executive Chairman, V. P. Nandakumar, and certain other of our employees are parties to acriminal case which is pending before the Court of the Judicial Magistrate of First Class, Ottapalam,Kerala. The case was filed as a result of a complaint by one of our customers alleging that we hadforcefully dispossessed the customer of a vehicle for which the customer had availed of a loan from usdespite the customer having no payment due to us in relation to the vehicle. This case is filed underSections 143, 147, 148, 149, 323, 394, 457 and 506 (iii) of the Indian Penal Code, 1860. We cannotassure you that this case will be disposed of in our favour. In the event that any adverse order is passedin this case, it may adversely affect our reputation.Risks Related to Investments in an Indian Company43. A slow-down in economic growth in India and other political and economic factors may adverselyaffect our business.We operate only within India and, accordingly, all of our revenues are derived from the domesticmarket. As a result, we are highly dependent on prevailing economic conditions in India and our resultsof operations are significantly affected by factors influencing the Indian economy. An uncertaineconomic situation, in India and globally, could result in a further slowdown in economic growth,investment and consumption. A slowdown in the rate of growth in the Indian economy could result inlower demand for credit and other financial products and services and higher defaults. Any slowdownin the growth or negative growth of sectors where we have a relatively higher exposure could adverselyimpact our performance. Any such slowdown could adversely affect our business, prospects, results ofoperations and financial condition.Since 1991, successive central governments have pursued policies of economic liberalisation andfinancial sector reforms. Nevertheless, the role of the central and state governments in the Indianeconomy as producers, consumers and regulators has remained significant. However, there can be noassurance that the liberalisation policies announced by the Government in the past will continue in thefuture. A significant change in the Government‟s policies could affect business and economicconditions in India and could also adversely affect our business.44. Difficulties faced by other NBFCs, banks or financial institutions or the Indian financial sectorgenerally could cause our business to be adversely affected.We are exposed to the risks of the Indian financial sector which in turn may be affected by financialdifficulties and other problems faced by Indian financial institutions. Certain Indian financialinstitutions have experienced difficulties during recent years particularly in managing risks associatedwith their portfolios and matching the duration of their assets and liabilities, and some co-operativebanks have also faced serious financial and liquidity crises. Any major difficulty or instabilityexperienced by the Indian financial sector could create adverse market perception, which in turn couldadversely affect our business, prospects, results of operations and financial condition.45. Financial instability in other countries could disrupt our business.The Indian market and the Indian economy are influenced by economic and market conditions in othercountries. Although economic conditions are different in each country, investors‟ reactions todevelopments in one country can have adverse effects on the economy as a whole, in other countries,including India. A loss of investor confidence in the financial systems of other emerging markets maycause volatility in Indian financial markets and indirectly, in the Indian economy in general. Anyworldwide financial instability could also have a negative impact on the Indian economy, including themovement of exchange rates and interest rates in India.In the event that the current difficult conditions in the global credit markets continue or if the recoveryis slower than expected or if there any significant financial disruption, this could have an adverse effecton our cost of funding, loan portfolio, business, prospects, results of operations and financial condition25


46. A decline in India‟s foreign exchange reserves may affect liquidity and interest rates in the Indianeconomy, which could adversely impact our financial condition.According to the RBI Weekly Statistical Supplement, India‟s foreign exchange reserves totaled US$310,562.00 million as of June 17, 2011. A decline in India‟s foreign exchange reserves could impactthe valuation of the Rupee and could result in reduced liquidity and higher interest rates which couldadversely affect our future financial performance.47. A downgrade of India‟s sovereign debt rating by an international rating agency could have anegative impact on our business.India's sovereign debt rating could be downgraded due to various factors, including changes in tax orfiscal policy, which are outside our control. Such downgrading could cause a change in interest rates orother commercial terms and could adversely affect our ability to raise additional financing as well asour capital expenditure plans, business and financial performance. A decline in this reserve couldimpact the valuation of the Indian Rupee and could result in reduced liquidity and higher interest rates,which could adversely affect the availability of financing to us.48. We will be required to prepare our financial statements in accordance with „Indian AccountingStandards converged with IFRS‟ (“IND-AS”) effective from April 1, 2014. There can be noassurance that our adoption of IND-AS will not adversely affect our reported results of operations orfinancial condition and any failure to successfully adopt IND-AS from April 1, 2014 could have anadverse effect on the price of the Equity Shares.Based on the current timeline announced convergence of „Indian Accounting Standards‟ with IFRS forIndian companies, we estimate that the earliest that our Company would need to prepare annual andinterim financial statements under IND-AS would be the financial period commencing from April 1,2014. There is currently a significant lack of clarity on the adoption of, and convergence to IND-ASand we currently do not have a set of established practices on which to draw on in forming judgmentsregarding its implementation and application, and we have not determined with any degree of certaintythe impact that such adoption will have on our financial reporting. There can be no assurance that ourfinancial condition, results of operations, cash flows or changes in shareholders‟ equity will not appearmaterially worse under IND-AS than under Indian GAAP. As we transition to IND-AS reporting, wemay encounter difficulties in the ongoing process of implementing and enhancing our managementinformation systems. Moreover, there is increasing competition for the small number of IFRSexperiencedaccounting personnel as more Indian companies begin to prepare IND-AS financialstatements. There can be no assurance that our adoption of IND-AS will not adversely affect ourreported results of operations or financial condition.49. Companies operating in India are subject to a variety of central and state government taxes andsurcharges.Tax and other levies imposed by the central and state governments in India that affect our tax liabilityinclude: (i) central and state taxes and other levies; (ii) income tax; (iii) value added tax; (iv) turnovertax; (v) service tax; (vi) stamp duty; and (vii) other special taxes and surcharges which are introducedon a temporary or permanent basis from time to time. Moreover, the central and state tax scheme inIndia is extensive and subject to change from time to time. For example, a new tax code is proposed tobe introduced in the Indian Parliament. In addition, a new goods and services tax is proposed to beintroduced effective April 2012, and the scope of the service tax is proposed to enlarged.The statutory corporate income tax in India, which includes a surcharge on the tax and an educationcess on the tax and the surcharge, is currently 32.445% down from 33.99% for the fiscal year endedMarch 31, 2010. The central or state government may in the future increase the corporate income tax itimposes. Any such future increases or amendments may affect the overall tax efficiency of companiesoperating in India and may result in significant additional taxes becoming payable. Additional taxexposure could adversely affect our business and results of operations.50. Our ability to raise foreign capital may be constrained by Indian law.As an Indian company, we are subject to exchange controls that regulate borrowing in foreign26


currencies. Such regulatory restrictions limit our financing sources and hence could constrain ourability to obtain financing on competitive terms and refinance existing indebtedness. In addition, wecannot assure you that the required approvals will be granted to us without onerous conditions, if at all.Limitations on raising foreign debt may have an adverse effect on our business.51. Terrorist attacks, civil disturbances, regional conflicts and other acts of violence in India and abroadmay disrupt or otherwise adversely affect the Indian economy, the health of which our businessdepends on.Certain events that are beyond our control, such as terrorist attacks and other acts of violence or war,including those involving India, the United Kingdom, the United States or other countries, mayadversely affect worldwide financial markets which could adversely affect our business, and any ofthese events could lower confidence in India‟s economy. South Asia has, from time to time,experienced instances of civil unrest and political tensions and hostilities among neighbouringcountries, including India, Pakistan and China. Political tensions could create a perception that there isa risk of disruption of services provided by India-based companies, which could have an adverse effecton our business.52. India is vulnerable to natural disasters that could severely disrupt the normal operation of ourbusiness.Parts of India are susceptible to tsunamis and earthquakes and other natural disasters. Because all ofour facilities and employees are located in India, if any of our branches or offices are damaged by anatural disaster, our business could be interrupted or delayed. As a result, a natural disaster in Indiacould adversely affect our results of operations.53. An outbreak of an infectious disease or any other serious public health concerns in Asia orelsewhere could adversely affect our business.The outbreak of an infectious disease in Asia or elsewhere or any other serious public health concern,such as swine influenza, could have a negative impact on the global economy, financial markets andbusiness activities worldwide, which could adversely affect our business. Although, we have not beenadversely affected by such outbreaks in the past, we can give you no assurance that a future outbreak ofan infectious disease among humans or animals or any other serious public health concern will not havea material adverse effect on our business.Risks Related to the Bonds54. Payments to be made on the Bonds will be subordinated to certain tax and other liabilities preferredby law.The Bonds will be subordinated to certain liabilities preferred by law such as the claims of theGovernment on account of taxes, and certain liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of ourCompany‟s trading or banking transactions. In particular, in the event of bankruptcy, liquidation orwinding-up, our Company‟s assets will be available to pay obligations on the Bonds only after all ofthose liabilities that rank senior to these Bonds have been paid as per Section 530 of the CompaniesAct, 1956. In the event of bankruptcy, liquidation or winding-up, there may not be sufficient assetsremaining to pay amounts due on the Bonds.55. Certain lenders of the Company have exclusive first charge over gold loan receivables of identifiedbranches of the Company.There are some lenders whose loans are secured by „exclusive first charge‟ over gold loan receivablesof identified branches of the Company by virtue of the terms and conditions contained in thedocuments entered into by the Company with such creditors and in the event of bankruptcy, liquidationor winding-up of the Company, the amounts recoverable by Bondholders will be reduced to that extent.56. There are other lenders who have pari passu charge over the Security provided.There are other lenders of the Company who have pari passu charge over the Security provided for the27


Issue. While the Company is required to maintain an asset cover of 1.10 times the outstanding amountof the Bonds, upon the Company‟s bankruptcy, winding-up or liquidation, the other lenders will rankpari passu with the Bondholders and to that extent, may reduce the amounts recoverable by theBondholders.57. The lenders of the Company who have exclusive charges over gold loan receivables of identifiedbranches of the Company may rank pari passu with the Debenture Holders in the event theirsecurity gets re-characterized.The Company has taken various loans from banks and financial institutions which are secured by„exclusive first charge‟ over gold loan receivables of identified branches of the Company. However theCompany periodically changes the identified branches depending on the amounts outstanding with therespective lender and depending on the financial covenants to be maintained under the documentsentered into by the Company with the respective lender. Due to the ability of the Company to deal withthe receivables over which the charge is created, the purported exclusive charge may be pari passucharge over all assets of the Company. In this event, such creditors will rank pari passu along with allthe charge holders of the Company which would include the Bondholders and this may thereforereduce the amounts recoverable by Bondholders in the event of the Company‟s bankruptcy, winding-upor liquidation58. The Company may raise further borrowings and charge its assets after receipt of necessary consentsfrom its existing lenders.The Company may, subject to receipt of all necessary consents from its existing lenders and theDebenture Trustee to the Issue, raise further borrowings and charge its assets. The Company is free todecide the nature of security that may be provided for future borrowings and the same may rank paripassu with the security created for this Issue. In such a scenario, the Bondholders will rank pari passuwith other creditors and to that extent, may reduce the amounts recoverable by the Bondholders uponthe Company‟s bankruptcy, winding-up or liquidation.59. The liquidity for the Bonds in the secondary market is very low and it may remain so in the future,and the price of the Bonds may be volatile.The Issue will be a new public issue of bonds for the Company and the liquidity in bonds at present isvery low in the secondary market. Although an application has been made to list the Bonds on BSE,there can be no assurance that liquidity for the Bonds will improve, and if liquidity for the Bonds wereto improve, there is no obligation on us to maintain the secondary market. The liquidity and marketprices of the Bonds can be expected to vary with changes in market and economic conditions, ourfinancial condition and prospects and other factors that generally influence market price of Bonds.Such fluctuations may significantly affect the liquidity and market price of the Bonds, which may tradeat a discount to the price at which you purchase the Bonds.Moreover, the price of the Bonds on the BSE may fluctuate after this Issue as a result of several otherfactors.60. You may not be able to recover, on a timely basis or at all, the full value of the outstanding amountsand/or the interest accrued thereon in connection with the Bonds.Our ability to pay interest accrued on the Bonds and/or the principal amount outstanding from time totime in connection therewith would be subject to various factors inter-alia including our financialcondition, profitability and the general economic conditions in India and in the global financialmarkets.We cannot assure you that we would be able to repay the principal amount outstanding from time totime on the Bonds and/or the interest accrued thereon in a timely manner, or at all. Although ourCompany will create appropriate security in favour of the Debenture Trustee for the Bondholders onthe assets adequate to ensure 110% asset cover for the Bonds, the realizable value of the SecuredAssets, when liquidated, may be lower than the outstanding principal and/or interest accrued thereon inconnection with the Bonds. A failure or delay to recover the expected value from a sale or dispositionof the Secured Assets could expose you to a potential loss.28


61. Debenture Redemption Reserve (“DRR”) would be created only up to an extent of 50% for theBonds. Further, if we do not generate adequate profits, we may not be able to maintain an adequateDRR, for the Bonds issued pursuant to this Prospectus.Section 117C of the Companies Act states that any company that intends to issue debentures mustcreate a DRR to which adequate amounts shall be credited out of the profits of the company until thedebentures are redeemed. The Ministry of Corporate Affairs has, through its circular dated April 18,2002, (“Circular”), specified that the quantum of DRR to be created before the redemption liabilityactually arises in normal circumstances should be „adequate‟ to pay the value of the debentures plusaccrued interest, (if not already paid), till the debentures are redeemed and cancelled. The Circularhowever further specifies that, for NBFCs like our Company, (NBFCs which are registered with theRBI under Section 45-IA of the RBI Act), the adequacy of the DRR will be 50% of the value ofdebentures issued through the public issue. Accordingly our Company is required to create a DRR of50% of the value of debentures issued through the public issue. This may affect speed of repayment toBondholders or otherwise affect availability to pay in a timely manner all amounts due and payable onthe Bonds.As further clarified by the Circular, the amount to be credited as DRR will be carved out of the profitsof the company only and there is no obligation on the part of the company to create DRR if there is noprofit for the particular year. Accordingly, if we are unable to generate adequate profits, the DRRcreated by us may not be adequate to meet the 50% of the value of the Bonds. This may have a bearingon the timely redemption of the Bonds by our Company.62. Any downgrading in credit rating of our Bonds may affect our trading price of the Bonds.The Bonds proposed to be issued under this Issue have been rated “CARE AA-” from CARE and„BWR AA-‟ from Brickwork. We cannot guarantee that these ratings will not be downgraded. Theratings provided by CARE or Brickwork may be suspended, withdrawn or revised at any time. Anyrevision or downgrading in the above credit ratings may lower the value of the Bonds and may alsoaffect our Company‟s ability to raise further debt.63. Changes in interest rates may affect the price of our Company‟s Bonds.All securities where a fixed rate of interest is offered, such as our Company‟s Bonds, are subject toprice 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 pricesincrease. The extent of fall or rise in the prices is a function of the existing coupon, days to maturityand the increase or decrease in the level of prevailing interest rates. Increased rates of interest, whichfrequently accompany inflation and/or a growing economy, are likely to have a negative effect on theprice of our Company‟s Bonds.64. You may be subject to Indian taxes arising on the sale of the Bonds.Sales of Bonds by any holder may give rise to tax liability in India, as further discussed in sectionentitled ―Statement of Tax Benefits‖ on page 78 of this Prospectus.65. There may be a delay in making refunds to applicants.We cannot assure you that the monies refundable to you, on account of (a) withdrawal of yourapplications, (b) our failure to receive minimum subscription in connection with the base amount of theIssue, (c) withdrawal of the Issue, or (d) failure to obtain the final approval from the BSE for listing ofthe Bonds, will be refunded to you in a timely manner.

On January 11, 2010 we issued 11,677,382 equity shares of Rs.10 each credited as fully paid to the shareholders of MAFIT.Competitive StrengthsWe believe that the following competitive strengths position us well for continued growth:One of the leading gold financing companies in India with a long operating history and loyal customer baseWe have been engaged in the business of Gold Loan financing since 1999. We have, over the years, beensuccessful in expanding our brand name, as well as our customer base to different geographical locations inIndia. Our total number of customers grew from 0.22 million as of March 31, 2008 to 0.34 million as of March31, 2009 and then to 0.55 million as of March 31, 2010 and to 1.19 million as of March 31, 2011. We attributeour growth, in part, to our market penetration, particularly in areas less served by organized lending institutionsand the efficient and streamlined procedural formalities which our customers need to complete in order tocomplete a loan transaction with us, which makes us a preferred mode of finance for our customers. We alsoattribute our growth to customer loyalty. We believe that a large portion of our customer base returns to us whenthey are in need of funds. Our average principal amount of loan per customer has increased from Rs. 35,734 forthe fiscal year 2009 to Rs. 63,106 for the fiscal year 2011.Flexible loan schemes, high quality customer service and short response timeWe believe the growth in our Gold Loan portfolio is partly due to the flexible Gold Loan schemes that we offerto our customers and high quality customer service. Depending on their individual needs, we are able tocustomize loans for our customers in terms of the loan amount, advance rate per gram of gold and interest rate.We also allow customers to prepay their loans with us without penalty, and we do not have a minimum loansize.We provide our customers with a transparent process and a secure environment in which to transact theirbusiness, and we believe that our staff is professional and attentive at all our branch locations. Each of ourbranches is staffed with customer representatives who possess local knowledge and understanding of customers‟needs.In addition, we strive to complete our Gold Loan transactions within a short timeframe, as this forms animportant component in our competitive edge over other lenders. We are able to process Gold Loans within ashort timeframe as a result of our efficient technology support, skilled workforce and clear policies on internalprocesses. Although disbursement time may vary depending on the loan size and the number of items pledged,we can generally disburse an average loan of Rs. 30,000 within a few minutes from the time the gold is tenderedto the appraiser. Furthermore, since our loans are all over-collateralized by gold jewellery, there are minimaldocumentary and credit assessment requirements, which also shortens our turnaround time and increases theease with which our customers can do business with us.Rapid expansion of our branch networkWe have rapidly expanded our branch network in the past, which we believe has provided us with an advantageover our competitors. Our total number of branches grew from 644 branches in 14 states and union territories asof March 31, 2009 to 1,005 branches in 15 states and union territories as of March 31, 2010 and to 2,06438


anches in 20 states and union territories as of March 31, 2011 and then to 2,192 branches in 22 states andunion territories as of May 31, 2011. In order to manage our expanding operations as well as our increasedcustomer base, we have developed a proprietary technology framework that provides an integrated, robustplatform to run our operations and scale our branch network. In addition, on a per branch basis, increase inprincipal amount of loans and revenues is generally more than the increase in proportionate operating costs yearon year, providing us with economies of scale as branches mature. We intend to continue to develop ourtechnology framework in order to equip ourselves for further growth of our business.Strong capital raising ability and high credit ratingWe have a track record of successfully raising capital from a variety of sources. We have received private equityfinancing from affiliates of Sequoia Capital, India Equity Partners, Ashmore Alchemy and Granite Hill. As ofMay 31, 2011, these private equity investors (except for Sequoia Capital and Granite Hill, which sold theirinvestment) hold an aggregate of 14.23% of our outstanding Equity Shares.In addition, as of March 31, 2011, we have borrowing relationships with more than 38 banks. As of March 31,2011, March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, our secured loans from banks, financial institutions and NBFCswere Rs. 38,696.60 million, Rs. 13,858.59 million and Rs. 2,978.69 million respectively. Our bank borrowingsand private equity financings have aided us in achieving growth in our business.We also raise funds by assigning receivables from Gold Loan advances to banks and other institutions. As atMarch 31, 2011, March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, the assigned amounts outstanding were Rs. 11,182.83million, Rs. 7,077.02 million and Rs. 5,381.42 million.We have had an investment grade rating from approved credit rating agencies since 1995. Our current rating isP1+ from CRISIL (a subsidiary of Standard & Poors) for our short-term debt instruments, including commercialpaper, which is the highest rating for short-term debt instruments. CRISIL has also given an A+ rating for ourNCD issues. In addition, we have a LA+ rating from ICRA <strong>Limited</strong>. For the current Issue, we have a rating ofBWR AA- rating from Brickwork and a rating of CARE AA- from CARE <strong>Limited</strong>.The rating reflects our well established presence in the Gold Loan business, our track record of maintaininggood risk-adjusted returns while expanding our scale of operations and our moderate capitalization levels inrelation to our proposed expansion plans. Our liquidity position is comfortable with a well matched assetliability management profile on account of the relatively shorter tenure of the advance portfolio and availabilityof funding lines. The shorter tenure of advances aided by our P1+ rating also helps us to raise money by way ofshort term borrowings and by way of issue of commercial paper at attractive rates.Robust support system and IT infrastructure, including appraisal, internal audit and inventory control andsafety systemsOur IT infrastructure has been developed in house and links our network of branches across the country with thehead office. We migrated to a .NET platform in December 2008, and have reaped benefits in the form ofminimizing errors, faster transmission of data and risk monitoring. Our management has also benefited fromavailability of real time information. We upload data at each branch to facilitate online information access forfaster decision making. In addition, our technology platform has helped us develop an effective risk basedinternal control system and internal audit. We also have a disaster recovery system located outside of Keralawhich replicates data on a real time basis. Our centralized technology aids us in offsite surveillance of all ourbranches. Our technology also helps reduce the time it takes to complete Gold Loan transactions.Our ability to accurately appraise the quality of the gold jewellery to be pledged in a short period of time iscritical to our business. We do not engage third parties to assess the gold jewellery, but instead employ in-housestaff for this purpose, which leads to better customer service. Assessing gold jewellery quickly and accurately isa specialized skill that involves an assessment for gold content and quality manually without damaging thejewellery. We use tested methods of appraisal of gold, such as the nitric acid test, the touchstone test, checkingfor hallmarks and the sound test, and an independent appraisal is carried out by different sets of officials beforedisbursement is made depending on the ticket size. In addition, branch heads are required to independentlyverify loans that are above Rs. 20,000. Since we generally lend only against household, used jewellery andavoid lending against bullion or lending to jewellers and goldsmiths, the risk of use of low quality gold orspurious jewellery as security for our Gold Loans is limited.39


In addition, the gold that is pledged for each loan is typically as much as the worth of gold that is owned by anaverage Indian household, which prevents our exposure to larger-sized loans where the chances of default andsubsequent losses are increased. Only a small portion of the loans advanced by us are for relatively largeramounts, and in such cases we follow a more detailed process for evaluation of such loans. For larger loans, thehead office will verify the profile of the customer and approve limits for loan sanctions.Once the Gold Loan is made, we have a system in place for continuous monitoring of the pledged gold byinternal audit and risk management teams. In accordance with our internal audit policy, all of our branches aresubject to inspection every 90 days, a branch audit every 45 days and a spot audit can be conducted at anybranch at any time. At the time of conducting an inspection, a quality check on the inventory is also carried out.Our inventory control procedures involve physical security checks and checks on the quality of pledged gold. Inaddition, the branch head and the assistant branch head are the joint custodians of the gold stored in strongrooms or vaults, which means that the strong rooms or vaults can only be opened if two keys are inserted at thesame time. The safes and strong rooms are reinforced concrete cement structures built per industry standardsand practices.Experienced management team and skilled personnelOur management team has over 35 years of experience in the banking and Gold Loan business. Our senior andoperating level management teams have extensive experience in the Gold Loan business and we believe thattheir considerable knowledge of and experience in the industry enhances our ability to operate effectively. Ourstaff, including professionals, covers a variety of disciplines, including gold appraisal, internal audit,technology, accounting, marketing and sales. Some of our key management personnel have been employed byus since our inception. Our management has experience in identifying market trends and suitable locations forexpanding and setting up branches to suit our target customers. Our workforce also consists of appraisers whoare skilled in the evaluation of the worth and authenticity of the gold that is pledged with us and we conductperiodic training programs to augment their knowledge and efficiency in performing this task.StrategyOur business strategy is designed to capitalize on our competitive strengths and enhance our leadership positionin the Gold Loan industry. Key elements of our strategy include:Further grow our Gold Loan businessHistorically, Indians have been one of the largest consumers of gold due to the strong preference for goldjewellery among Indian households and its widespread use as a savings instrument. A large proportion of goldstock is held by rural India, as gold is viewed as a secure, liquid and easily accessible savings instrument, apartfrom its ornamental status. (Source: IMaCS Industry Report 2009)As a result, the market for Gold Loan financing in India is largely untapped and offers good potential for furthergrowth. The organized Gold Loan market is approximately 1.2% of the value of total gold stock in India(Source: IMaCS Industry Report (2010 Update)).We intend to increase our presence in under-served rural and semi-urban markets, where a large portion of thepopulation has limited access to credit either because they do not meet the eligibility requirements of banks orfinancial institutions, or because credit is not available in a timely manner at reasonable rates of interest, or atall. A typical Gold Loan customer expects high loan-to-value ratios, rapid and accurate appraisals, easy access,low levels of documentation, quick approval and disbursement and safekeeping of their pledged gold. Webelieve we meet these criteria, and thus our focus is to expand our Gold Loan business.Continue to expand branch networkWe intend to continue to grow our Gold Loan portfolio by expanding our network through the addition of newbranches. We have added 1,059 branches in the last fiscal year and 128 branches between March 31, 2011 andMay 31, 2011. We propose to increase our branch strength by at least 500 additional branches in the fiscal year2012, including in states where we do not currently have any operations, subject to certain conditions beingsatisfied. We carefully assess the market, location and proximity to target customers when selecting branch sitesto ensure that our branches are set up close to our target customers. We believe our customers appreciate thisconvenience and it enables us to reach new customers. In addition, on a per branch basis, our increase in40


principal amount of loans and revenues is generally more than the increase in proportionate operating costs yearon year, providing us with economies of scale as branches mature.Continue to build the <strong>Manappuram</strong> brandOur brand is key to the growth of our business. We believe that we have built a recognizable brand in the ruraland semi-urban markets of India, particularly in the southern states of Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka andAndhra Pradesh. We intend to continue to build our brand by using celebrities in our advertising campaigns andundertaking other marketing efforts on radio, television and outdoor advertising.Strengthen our technology platform and continue to develop robust risk management procedures and relatedsystemsSince we plan to expand our geographic reach as well as our scale of operations, we intend to further developand strengthen our technology platform to support our growth and improve the quality of our services. We arefocused on improving our comprehensive knowledge base and customer profile and support systems, which inturn will assist us in the expansion of our business. We also propose to strengthen the technology in ourjewellery appraisal process. We believe that improvements in technology will also reduce our operational andprocessing time and thereby improve our operating efficiencies.In addition, we view risk management as crucial to the expansion of our Gold Loan business. We thereforecontinually 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,market risk and operational risk. We propose to make significant investments in personnel, technology andinfrastructure in order to improve process efficiencies and mitigate business risks. We have recruited individualswho have significant risk management experience and plan to retain this focus in hiring additional riskmanagement personnel. Going forward, we plan to continue to adapt our risk management procedures to takeaccount of trends we have identified, including our loan loss experience. We believe that prudent riskmanagement policies and development of tailored credit procedures will allow us to expand our Gold Loanfinancing business without experiencing significant increases in non-performing assets.Attract and retain high quality talentThe intellectual capital of our management and finance teams, as well as other professionals in our business, iscritical to our success, and we accordingly intend to continue to focus on attracting and retaining high qualitytalent. In order to achieve this, we will continue to capitalize on our strengths in the area of recruiting. Inparticular, we plan to consolidate our position as an employer of choice within the NBFC sector. We currentlyconduct training programs periodically across our regional training centers. We have also developed and willcontinue to develop targeted compensation schemes designed to retain our key management personnel andprofessionals, such as offering performance-linked salaries.New line of businessPursuant to the approval of our shareholders in the EGM on May 31, 2011, we intend to commence a new lineof business in travel and tourism. Our Company holds an Authorised Dealer Category II license from the RBIfor its FOREX operations. To augment our Company‟s income from such operations, it was thought desirable toventure into this new line of business. Our Company proposes to act as a travel agent, tour operator, transportagent and contractor. Further, our Company proposes to arrange and operate tours and to act as representativesof airlines, railways and arranging road, air, water ticket booking.41

Crore. Education cess and Secondary Higher Education cess of 3% is levied on the amount of tax andsurcharge.(B)ITo the Debenture Holders of the CompanyTo the Resident Debenture Holder1. Interest on NCD issued at par would be subject to tax at the normal rates of tax in accordance with andsubject to the provisions of the Act.2. In respect of NCD issued at discount, the Central Board of Direct Taxes („CBDT‟) has earlier clarifiedby way of certain letters issued to the Reserve Bank of India and others that the difference between thebid price (subscription price) and the redemption price (face value) of Deep Discount Bonds („DDB‟)(Refer Annexure 1) will be treated as interest income assessable under the Act in case the NCD areredeemed as on the redemption date. In respect of transfer of the NCD before maturity, the incomewill be taxable as capital gains.The point of time at which the discount would be taxable as interest in the hands of Debenture Holderis a debatable issue. The CBDT circular issued in the context of DDB suggests that interest would needto be offered to tax based on accrual system of accounting (i.e. by marking such bonds to marketvalue). The concept articulated in the context of DDBs could also be extended to NCDs in question.However, it should be possible to argue that interest should be offered to tax depending on the methodof accounting followed by the Debenture Holder.3. No income tax is deductible at source on interest on NCD inter alia in respect of the following:(a)(b)(c)(d)On any security issued by a Company in a dematerialized form and is listed on recognizedstock exchange in India.In case the payment of interest on NCD to resident individual Debenture Holder in theaggregate during the financial year does not exceed Rs. 2,500 provided the NCD are listed ona recognized stock exchange in India and the interest is paid by an account payee cheque.When the Assessing Officer issues a certificate on an application by a Debenture Holder onsatisfaction that the total income of the Debenture Holder justifies no/lower deduction of tax atsource as per the provisions of section 197(1) of the Act and that certificate is filed with theCompany.When the resident Debenture Holder with PAN (not being a Company or a firm or a seniorcitizen) furnishes a declaration in writing in duplicate in the prescribed form (Form 15G) andverified in the prescribed manner to the effect that the tax on his estimated total income of thePY in which such income is to be included in computing his total income will be Nil.HOWEVER under section 197A (1B) of the Act, Form 15G cannot be submitted nor considered forexemption from deduction from tax at source if the aggregate of income of the nature referred to in thesaid section, viz. dividend, interest, etc as prescribed therein, credited or paid or likely to be credited orpaid during the PY in which such income is to be included exceeds the maximum amount which is notchargeable to tax. To illustrate, as on 01.04.2011,the maximum amount of income not chargeable to taxin case of individuals (other than women assesses, senior citizens and super senior citizens) and HUFsis Rs. 1,80,000; in the case of every individual being a woman resident in India and below the age of 60years at any time during the PY is Rs. 1,90,000; in the case of every individual being a resident inIndia, who is of the age of 60 years or more but less than 80 years at any time during the PY (SeniorCitizen) is Rs. 2,50,000; and in the case of every individual being a resident in India, who is of the ageof 80 years or more at any time during the PY (Super Senior Citizen) is Rs. 5,00,000 for PY 2011-12.Senior citizens, who are 65 or more years of age at any time during the financial year, enjoy the specialprivilege to submit a self-declaration in the prescribed Form 15H for non deduction of tax at source inaccordance with the provisions of section 197A (1C) of the Act provided that the tax due on totalincome of the person is Nil. In all other situations, tax would be deducted at source as per prevailingprovisions of the Act; Form No.15G with PAN / 15H with PAN / Certificate issued u/s 197(1) has to befiled with the Company.81


4. In case of sale of NCD (originally issued at a discount) prior to redemption date, the gains arising onsuch sale of NCD will be taxable as “Capital Gains”.The capital gains will be computed by deducting cost of acquisition of the NCD and expenditureincurred in connection with such transfer from the full value of sale consideration.In case of NCD issued originally at a discount, the cost of acquisition will be taken to be the aggregateof the cost for which the bond was acquired by the Debenture Holder (including the intermediatepurchaser of NCD) and the income, if any, already offered to tax by such Debenture Holder upto thedate of transfer.5. Under section 2(29A) of the Act, read with section 2(42A) of the Act, a listed NCD is treated as a longterm capital asset if the same is held for more than 12 months immediately preceding the date of itstransfer.Under section 112 of the Act, capital gains arising on the transfer of long term capital assets beinglisted securities are subject to tax at the rate of 10% of capital gains as increased by applicablesurcharge and education cess calculated without indexation of the cost of acquisition.In case of an individual or HUF, being a resident, where the total income as reduced by such long-termcapital gains is below the maximum amount which is not chargeable to income-tax, then, such longtermcapital gains shall be reduced by the amount by which the total income as so reduced falls short ofthe maximum amount which is not chargeable to income-tax and the tax on the balance of such longtermcapital gains shall be computed at the rate mentioned above.6. Short-term capital gains on the transfer of listed NCD, where NCD are held for a period of not morethan 12 months would be taxed at the normal rates of tax in accordance with and subject to theprovisions of the Act.The provisions relating to maximum amount not chargeable to tax, surcharge and education cess asdescribed in the preceding paragraph would also apply to such short term capital gains.7. The Circular issued in the context of DDB (Refer Annexure 1) suggests that the period of holding willbe calculated from the date of purchase/subscription, or last valuation date, whichever is later.Consequently the capital gains would always be short term capital gains, since the period of holdingwould always be less than one year. However, a contrary view that the period of holding of DDBshould be calculated from the date of purchase/ subscription could also be explored.8. In case the NCD are held as stock in trade, the income on transfer of NCD would be taxed as businessincome or loss in accordance with and subject to the provisions of the Act.9. However in case where tax has to be deducted at source while paying interest on NCD, the Company isnot required to deduct surcharge, education cess and secondary and higher education cess.10. Under section 94(1) of the Act, where the owner of any securities („the owner‟) sells or transfers thosesecurities, and buys back or reacquires the securities, including similar securities, then, if the result ofthe transaction is that any interest becoming payable in respect of the securities is receivable otherwisethan by the owner, the interest payable as aforesaid shall, whether it would or would not have beenchargeable to income-tax be deemed, to be the income of the owner and not to be the income of anyother person.Under section 94(2) of the Act, where any person has had at any time during any previous year anybeneficial interest in any securities, and the result of any transaction relating to such securities or theincome thereof is that, in respect of such securities within such year, either no income is received byhim or the income received by him is less than the sum to which the income would have amounted ifthe income from such securities had accrued from day to day and been apportioned accordingly, thenthe income from such securities for such year shall be deemed to be the income of such person.82


However, as per provisions of section 94(3), the provisions of sub-section (1) or sub-section (2) ofsection 94 of the Act shall not apply if the owner, or the person who has had a beneficial interest in thesecurities, as the case may be, proves to the satisfaction of the Assessing Officer(a)(b)that there has been no avoidance of income-tax, orthat the avoidance of income-tax was exceptional and not systematic and that there was not inhis case in any of the three preceding PYs any avoidance of income-tax by a transaction of thenature referred to in sub-section (1) or sub-section (2) of section 94 of the Act.11. As per section 56(2)(vii)(c) of the Act, in case and individual or HUF receives NCD from any personon or after 1st October, 2009:(i)(ii)without consideration, aggregate fair market value of which exceeds fifty thousand rupees,then the whole of the aggregate fair market value of such NCD; orfor a consideration which is less than the aggregate fair market value of the NCD by anamount exceeding fifty thousand rupees, then the aggregate fair market value of such NCD asexceeds such consideration;shall be chargeable to tax as the income of the recipient under the head Income from Other Sources.However, the above provisions would not apply in certain situations like receipts:from any relative; oron the occasion of the marriage of the individual; orunder a will or by way of inheritance; orin contemplation of death of the payer or donor, as the case may be; orfrom any local authority as defined in the Explanation to clause (20) of section 10; orfrom any fund or foundation or university or other educational institution or hospital or othermedical institution or any trust or institution referred to in clause (23C) of section 10; orfrom any trust or institution registered under section 12AAIITo the Mutual fundsAll mutual funds registered under Securities and Exchange Board of India or set up by public sectorbanks or public financial institutions or authorised by the Reserve Bank of India are exempt from taxon all their income under the provisions of section 10(23D) of the Act subject to and in accordancewith the provisions contained therein.Benefits under the Wealth Tax Act, 1957(A)To the CompanyAs per the provisions of section 2(m) of the Wealth tax Act, 1957, the Company is entitled to reducedebts owed in relation to the assets which are chargeable to wealth tax in computing the net taxablewealth.(B)To the Debenture Holder of the CompanyNCD of the Company held by the Debenture Holder will not be treated as an asset within the meaningof section 2(ea) of Wealth Tax Act, 1957. Hence, NCD are not liable to wealth tax.83


Gift TaxGift-tax is not levied on gift of NCD in the hands of the donor as well as the donee because the provisions of theGift-tax Act, 1958 have ceased to apply in respect of gifts made on or after October 1, 1998.Proposals made in Direct Taxes CodeThe Hon‟ble <strong>Finance</strong> Minister has presented the Direct Tax Code Bill, 2010 („DTC Bill‟) on August 30, 2010,which is proposed to be effective from April 1, 2012. The DTC Bill is likely to be presented before the IndianParliament. Accordingly, it is currently unclear what effect the Direct Tax Code would have on the investors.Requirement to furnish Permanent Account Number under the Act1. Section 139A(5A) of the Act:Subsection (5A) of section 139A of the Act lays down that every person from whose income tax hasbeen deducted at source under chapter XVII B of the Income Tax Act shall furnish his PermanentAccount Number to the person responsible for deduction of tax at source.2.

Clarifications regarding tax treatment of deep discount bonds and STRIPS (Separate Trading ofRegistered Interest and Principal of Securities)1. A review of the tax treatment of income arising from Deep Discount Bonds has been underconsideration in the Board for some time. The Board had earlier clarified by way of certainletters issued to the Reserve Bank of India and others that the difference between the bid price(subscription price) and the redemption price (face value) of such bonds will be treated asinterest income assessable under the Income-tax Act. On transfer of the bonds before maturity,the difference between the sale consideration and the cost of acquisition would be taxed asincome from capital gains where the bonds were held as investment, and as business incomewhere the bonds were held as trading assets. On final redemption, however, no capital gains84


will arise. It was further clarified that tax would be deducted at source on the differencebetween the bid price and the redemption price at the time of maturity.2. Such tax treatment of Deep Discount Bonds, however, has posed the following problems :(i)(ii)(iii)(iv)Taxing the entire income received from such a bond in the year of redemption asinterest income gives rise to a sudden and huge tax liability in one year whereas thevalue of the bond has been progressively increasing over the period of holding.Where the bond is redeemed by a person other than the original subscriber, suchperson becomes taxable on the entire difference between the bid price and theredemption price as interest income, since he is not able to deduct his cost ofacquisition from such income.A company issuing such bonds and following the mercantile system of accountingmay evolve a system for accounting of annual accrual of the liability in respect ofsuch a bond and claim a deduction in its assessment for each year even though thecorresponding income in the hands of the investor would be taxed only at the time ofmaturity.Taxing the entire income only at the time of maturity amounts to a tax deferral.3. The matter has now been examined in consultation with the Reserve Bank of India and theMinistry of Law. The practice followed in several countries outside India has also beenexamined. With a view to remove the anomalies in the existing system of taxation of incomefrom Deep Discount Bonds, and to formulate a system which is more in line with internationalpractice, the Board have decided that such income may hereafter be treated as follows.General treatment4. Every person holding a Deep Discount Bond will make a market valuation of the bond as onthe 31st March of each Financial Year (hereafter referred to as the valuation date) and marksuch bond to such market value in accordance with the guidelines issued by the Reserve Bankof India for valuation of investments. For this purpose, market values of different instrumentsdeclared by the Reserve Bank of India or by the Primary Dealers Association of India jointlywith the Fixed Income Money Market and Derivatives Association of India may be referredto.4.1 The difference between the market valuations as on two successive valuation dates willrepresent the accretion to the value of the bond during the relevant financial year and will betaxable as interest income (where the bonds are held as investments) or business income(where the bonds are held as trading assets).4.2 In a case where the bond is acquired during the year by an intermediate purchaser (a personwho has acquired the bond by purchase during the term of the bond and not as originalsubscription) the difference between the market value as on the valuation date and the cost forwhich he acquired the bond, will be taxed as interest income or business income, as the casemay be, and no capital gains will arise as there would be no transfer of the bond on thevaluation date.Transfer before maturity5. Where the bond is transferred at any time before the maturity date, the difference between thesale price and the cost of the bond will be taxable as capital gains in the hands of an investoror as business income in the hands of a trader. For computing such gains, the cost of the bondwill be taken to be the aggregate of the cost for which the bond was acquired by the transferorand the income, if any, already offered to tax by such transferor (in accordance with para 4above) upto the date of transfer.85


5.1 Since the income chargeable in this case is only the accretion to the value of the bond over aspecific period, for the purposes of computing capital gains, the period of holding in suchcases will be reckoned from the date of purchase/subscription, or the last valuation date inrespect of which the transferor has offered income to tax, whichever is later. Since such periodwould always be less than one year, the capital gains will be chargeable to tax as short-termcapital gains.Redemption6. Where the bond is redeemed by the original subscriber, the difference between the redemptionprice and the value as on the last valuation date immediately preceding the maturity date willbe taxed as interest income in the case of investors, or business income in the case of traders.6.1 Where the bond is redeemed by an intermediate purchaser, the difference between theredemption price and the cost of the bond to such purchaser will be taxable as interest orbusiness income, as the case may be. For this purpose, again, the cost of the bond will meanthe aggregate of the cost at which the bonds were acquired and the income arising from thebond which has already been offered to tax by the person redeeming the bond.STRIPS7. Apart from original issue of Deep Discount Bonds, such bonds can also be created by„stripping‟, i.e., the process of detaching the interest coupons from a normal coupon bearingbond and treating the different coupons and the stripped bond as separate instruments orsecurities („strips‟) capable of being traded in independently. Such a mechanism, referred to asSTRIPS (Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal of Securities) createsinstruments which are in the nature of Deep Discount or Zero Coupon Bonds from out of thenormal interest bearing bonds. Accordingly, the tax treatment of the different components ofprincipal and interest created by such stripping will be on the same lines as clarified in thepreceding paragraphs in respect of Deep Discount Bonds.7.1 The process of stripping of a normal interest-bearing bond into its various components will notamount to a transfer within the meaning of the Income-tax Act as it merely involves theconversion of the unstripped bond into the corresponding series of STRIPS. Similarly, thereconstitution of STRIPS to form a coupon bearing bond will not amount to a transfer.Tax deduction at source8. The difference between the bid price of a deep discount bond and its redemption price, whichis actually paid at the time of maturity, will continue to be subject to tax deduction at sourceunder section 193 of the Income-tax Act. Under the existing provisions of that section, no taxis deductible at source on interest payable on Government securities. Further, the CentralGovernment is empowered to specify any such bonds issued by an institution, authority,public sector company or co-operative society by way of notification, exempting them fromthe requirement of tax deduction at source.Option to investors9. Considering the difficulties which might be faced by small non-corporate investors indetermining market values under the RBI guidelines and computing income taxable in eachyear of holding, it has further been decided that such investors holding Deep Discount Bondsupto an aggregate face value of rupees one lakh may, at their option, continue to offer incomefor tax in accordance with the earlier clarifications issued by the Board referred to in para 1above.Circular : No. 2/2002, dated 15-2-2002. CLARIFICATION ONEThere have been certain reports in the press recently, suggesting that the tax treatment of Deep Discount Bondsas specified in Circular No.2/2002, dated February 15, 2002 [See [2002] 120 Taxman 127 (St.)] issued by theCentral Board of Direct Taxes is anomalous, as it provides for taxation of income from such bonds on an annual86


asis, even though no income is received by the bond-holder before maturity. It has been opined that a heavy taxburden is being placed on persons who have been holding such bonds for a while, and a cumbersome obligationof valuing the bonds every year on the basis of RBI Guidelines is being cast on small investors. The reports aremis-conceived and based on an incorrect understanding and inadequate knowledge of facts and law. Themodified tax treatment now specified in fact corrects the anomalies in the existing system by providing amechanism for taxing income accruing from year to year on deep discount bonds, on the same lines as incomefrom normal coupon bearing bonds is taxed. Transfer of the bonds before maturity will attract capital gains tax,as in the existing system.The earlier system of taxing the entire income received from such bonds in the year of redemption as interestincome was anomalous in that it gave rise to a sudden and huge tax liability in one year whereas the value of thebond had been progressively increasing over the period of holding. Further, where the bond was redeemed by aperson other than the original subscriber, such person was taxed on the entire difference between the bid priceand the redemption price as interest income. Such a system also created tax-induced distortions in the debtmarket, and was an impediment to the development of a market in STRIPS, which are essentially zero couponinstruments derived from normal coupon bearing bonds.Taxation of income on accrual basis is an established principle of law, and always results in taxing income thathas not yet been received. Income from deep discount bonds accrues continuously over the period of holdingand can be realized at any time by selling the bond. Taxing income from such bonds on accrual basis annuallyis, in fact, a practice followed world-wide.It is also an established principle that a circular issued by CBDT cannot have a retrospective tax effect. Thepresent circular on deep discount bonds, therefore, specifies the tax treatment in respect of bonds which areissued after the issue of the circular, and does not seek to impose the modified treatment on existing bondholders.Further, non-corporate persons who invest small amounts in new issues (face value upto Rs.1 lakh) canstill opt for the old system.Valuing the bonds every year on the basis of RBI Guidelines will not pose any problem as such values can beobtained from the issuers themselves, who will invariably be the RBI or a public financial institution.The amount received on redemption would always be liable to tax deduction at source as per normal provisionsof the Income-tax Act. However, no TDS is required on interest payable on Government securities, and bondsissued by an institution, authority, public sector company or co-operative society can also be exempted from therequirement by notification.Please note the above “Statement of Tax Benefits” is the “Details of Tax Benefits available to the Companyand its shareholders” which is referred to as Annexure 4 in the auditor report dated July 19, 2011 in“Auditor Examination Report and Reformatted Statements” on page 182.87

Our financial statements as ofand for the fiscal year ended 2011 and 2010 reflect the financial results of MAFIT for such fiscal year; however,as the merger was approved in December 2009, our financial statements as of and for the fiscal year 2007, 2008and 2009 does not include the financial results of MAFIT for such periods.MAFIT was engaged in the same line of business as our Company, and as a result, we have benefited fromincreased operations, cost savings and operational synergies.As a result of the Merger, shareholders of MAFIT received 2.1 Equity Shares in our Company in exchange forevery issued and outstanding share of MAFIT. On January 11, 2010 we issued 11,677,382 equity shares of Rs.10 each credited as fully paid to the shareholders of MAFIT.Acquisition of <strong>Manappuram</strong> PrintersWith effect from April 1, 2009, we acquired all the assets and liabilities of <strong>Manappuram</strong> Printers, a soleproprietorship of our Promoter which was engaged in the business of printing and sale of stationery items. Theprinting requirements of our Company were quite substantial and prior to this acquisition, we were dependent onthird parties to meet our printing requirements.Competitive StrengthsWe believe that the following competitive strengths position us well for continued growth:89


One of the leading gold financing companies in India with a long operating history and loyal customerbaseWe have been engaged in the business of Gold Loan financing since 1999. We have, over the years, beensuccessful in expanding our brand name, as well as our customer base to different geographical locations inIndia. Our total number of customers grew from 0.34 million as of March 31, 2009 to 0.55 million as of March31, 2010 and to 1.19 million as of March 31, 2011. We attribute our growth, in part, to our market penetration,particularly in areas less served by organized lending institutions and the efficient and streamlined proceduralformalities which our customers need to complete in order to complete a loan transaction with us, which makesus a preferred mode of finance for our customers. We also attribute our growth to customer loyalty. We believethat a large portion of our customer base returns to us when they are in need of funds. Our average principalamount of loan per customer has increased from Rs. 35,734 for the fiscal year 2009 to Rs. 63,106 for the fiscalyear 2011.Flexible loan schemes, high quality customer service and short response timeWe believe the growth in our Gold Loan portfolio is partly due to the flexible Gold Loan schemes that we offerto our customers and high quality customer service. Depending on their individual needs, we are able tocustomize loans for our customers in terms of the loan amount, advance rate per gram of gold and interest rate.We also allow customers to prepay their loans with us without penalty, and we do not have a minimum loansize.We provide our customers with a transparent process and a secure environment in which to transact theirbusiness, and we believe that our staff is professional and attentive at all our branch locations. Each of ourbranches is staffed with customer representatives who possess local knowledge and understanding of customers‟needs.In addition, we strive to complete our Gold Loan transactions within a short timeframe, as this forms animportant component in our competitive edge over other lenders. We are able to process Gold Loans within ashort timeframe as a result of our efficient technology support, skilled workforce and clear policies on internalprocesses. Although disbursement time may vary depending on the loan size and the number of items pledged,we can generally disburse an average loan of Rs. 30,000 within a few minutes from the time the gold is tenderedto the appraiser. Furthermore, since our loans are all over-collateralized by gold jewellery, there are minimaldocumentary and credit assessment requirements, which also shortens our turnaround time and increases theease with which our customers can do business with us.Rapid expansion of our branch networkWe have rapidly expanded our branch network in the past, which we believe has provided us with an advantageover our competitors. Our total number of branches grew from 644 branches in 14 states and union territories asof March 31, 2009, to 1,005 branches in 15 states and union territories as of March 31, 2010 and to 2,064branches in 20 states and union territories as of March 31, 2011and then to 2,192 branches in 22 states andunion territories as of May 31, 2011. In order to manage our expanding operations as well as our increasedcustomer base, we have developed a proprietary technology framework that provides an integrated, robustplatform to run our operations and scale our branch network. In addition, on a per branch basis, increase inprincipal amount of loans and revenues is generally more than the increase in proportionate operating costs yearon year, providing us with economies of scale as branches mature. We intend to continue to develop ourtechnology framework in order to equip ourselves for further growth of our business.Strong capital raising ability and high credit ratingWe have a track record of successfully raising capital from a variety of sources. We have received private equityfinancing from affiliates of Sequoia Capital, India Equity Partners, Ashmore Alchemy and Granite Hill. As ofMay 31, 2011, these private equity investors (except for Sequoia Capital and Granite Hill, which sold theirinvestment) hold an aggregate of 14.66% of our outstanding Equity Shares.The results of operations also depend substantially on our net interest margin, which is the difference betweenthe interest rates on our interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. For the fiscal years 2011, 2010,and 2009, our interest income represented 99.52%, 99.15% and 97.94% respectively, of our total income.90


In addition, as of March 31, 2011, we have borrowing relationships with 38 banks. As of March 31, 2011,March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, our secured loans from banks, financial institutions and NBFCs were Rs.38,696.60 million, Rs. 13,858.59 million and Rs. 2,978.69 million respectively. Our bank borrowings andprivate equity financings have aided us in achieving growth in our business.We also raise funds by assigning receivables from Gold Loan advances to banks and other institutions. As atMarch 31, 2011, March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, the assigned amounts outstanding were Rs. 11,182.83million, Rs. 7,077.02 million and Rs. 5,381.42 million.We have had an investment grade rating from approved credit rating agencies since 1995. Our current rating isP1+ from CRISIL (a subsidiary of Standard & Poors) for our short-term debt instruments, including commercialpaper, which is the highest rating for short-term debt instruments. CRISIL has also given an A+ rating for ourNCD issues. In addition, we have a LA+ rating from ICRA <strong>Limited</strong>. For the current Issue, we have a rating ofBWR AA- from Brickwork and a rating of CARE AA- from CARE <strong>Limited</strong>.The rating reflects our well established presence in the Gold Loan business, our track record of maintaininggood risk-adjusted returns while expanding our scale of operations and our moderate capitalization levels inrelation to our proposed expansion plans. Our liquidity position is comfortable with a well matched assetliability management profile on account of the relatively shorter tenure of the advance portfolio and availabilityof funding lines. The shorter tenure of advances aided by our P1+ rating also helps us to raise money by way ofshort term borrowings and by way of issue of commercial paper at attractive rates.Robust support system and IT infrastructure, including appraisal, internal audit and inventory control andsafety systemsOur IT infrastructure has been developed in house and links our network of branches across the country with thehead office. We migrated to a .NET platform in December 2008, and have reaped benefits in the form ofminimizing errors, faster transmission of data and risk monitoring. Our management has also benefited fromavailability of real time information. We upload data at each branch to facilitate online information access forfaster decision making. In addition, our technology platform has helped us develop an effective risk basedinternal control system and internal audit. We also have a disaster recovery system located outside of Keralawhich replicates data on a real time basis. Our centralized technology aids us in offsite surveillance of all ourbranches. Our technology also helps reduce the time it takes to complete Gold Loan transactions.Our ability to accurately appraise the quality of the gold jewellery to be pledged in a short period of time iscritical to our business. We do not engage third parties to assess the gold jewellery, but instead employ in-housestaff for this purpose, which leads to better customer service. Assessing gold jewellery quickly and accurately isa specialized skill that involves an assessment for gold content and quality manually without damaging thejewellery. We use tested methods of appraisal of gold, such as the nitric acid test, the touchstone test, checkingfor hallmarks and the sound test, and an independent appraisal is carried out by different sets of officials beforedisbursement is made depending on the ticket size. In addition, branch heads are required to independentlyverify loans that are above Rs. 20,000. Since we generally lend only against household, used jewellery andavoid lending against bullion or lending to jewellers and goldsmiths, the risk of use of low quality gold orspurious jewellery as security for our Gold Loans is limited.In addition, the gold that is pledged for each loan is typically as much as the worth of gold that is owned by anaverage Indian household, which prevents our exposure to larger-sized loans where the chances of default andsubsequent losses are increased. Only a small portion of the loans advanced by us are for relatively largeramounts, and in such cases we follow a more detailed process for evaluation of such loans. For larger loans, thehead office will verify the profile of the customer and approve limits for loan sanctions.Once the Gold Loan is made, we have a system in place for continuous monitoring of the pledged gold byinternal audit and risk management teams. In accordance with our internal audit policy, all of our branches aresubject to inspection every 90 days, a branch audit every 45 days and a spot audit can be conducted at anybranch at any time. At the time of conducting an inspection, a quality check on the inventory is also carried out.Our inventory control procedures involve physical security checks and checks on the quality of pledged gold. Inaddition, the branch head and the assistant branch head are the joint custodians of the gold stored in strongrooms or vaults, which means that the strong rooms or vaults can only be opened if two keys are inserted at thesame time. The safes and strong rooms, are reinforced concrete cement structures built per industry standardsand practices.91


Experienced management team and skilled personnelOur management team has over 35 years of experience in the banking and Gold Loan business. Our senior andoperating level management teams have extensive experience in the Gold Loan business and we believe thattheir considerable knowledge of and experience in the industry enhances our ability to operate effectively. Ourstaff, including professionals, covers a variety of disciplines, including gold appraisal, internal audit,technology, accounting, marketing and sales. Some of our key management personnel have been employed byus since our inception. Our management has experience in identifying market trends and suitable locations forexpanding and setting up branches to suit our target customers. Our workforce also consists of appraisers whoare skilled in the evaluation of the worth and authenticity of the gold that is pledged with us and we conductperiodic training programs to augment their knowledge and efficiency in performing this task.StrategyOur business strategy is designed to capitalize on our competitive strengths and enhance our leadership positionin the Gold Loan industry. Key elements of our strategy include:Further grow our Gold Loan businessHistorically, Indians have been one of the largest consumers of gold due to the strong preference for goldjewellery among Indian households and its widespread use as a savings instrument. A large proportion of goldstock is held by rural India, as gold is viewed as a secure, liquid and easily accessible savings instrument, apartfrom its ornamental status. (Source: IMaCS Industry Report 2009)As a result, the market for Gold Loan financing in India is largely untapped and offers good potential for furthergrowth. The organized Gold Loan market is approximately 1.2% of the value of total gold stock in India(Source: IMaCS Industry Report (2010 Update)).We intend to increase our presence in under-served rural and semi-urban markets, where a large portion of thepopulation has limited access to credit either because they do not meet the eligibility requirements of banks orfinancial institutions, or because credit is not available in a timely manner at reasonable rates of interest, or atall. A typical Gold Loan customer expects high loan-to-value ratios, rapid and accurate appraisals, easy access,low levels of documentation, quick approval and disbursement and safekeeping of their pledged gold. Webelieve we meet these criteria, and thus our focus is to expand our Gold Loan business.Continue to expand branch networkWe intend to continue to grow our Gold Loan portfolio by expanding our network through the addition of newbranches. We have added 1,059 branches in the last fiscal year and 128 branches between March 31, 2011 andMay 31, 2011. We propose to increase our branch strength by at least 500 additional branches in the fiscal year2012, including in states where we do not currently have any operations, subject to certain conditions beingsatisfied. We carefully assess the market, location and proximity to target customers when selecting branch sitesto ensure that our branches are set up close to our target customers. We believe our customers appreciate thisconvenience and it enables us to reach new customers. In addition, on a per branch basis, our increase inprincipal amount of loans and revenues is generally more than the increase in proportionate operating costs yearon year, providing us with economies of scale as branches mature.Continue to build the <strong>Manappuram</strong> brandOur brand is key to the growth of our business. We believe that we have built a recognizable brand in the ruraland semi-urban markets of India, particularly in the southern states of Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka andAndhra Pradesh. We intend to continue to build our brand by using celebrities in our advertising campaigns andundertaking other marketing efforts on radio, television and outdoor advertising.Strengthen our technology platform and continue to develop robust risk management procedures and relatedsystemsSince we plan to expand our geographic reach as well as our scale of operations, we intend to further developand strengthen our technology platform to support our growth and improve the quality of our services. We arefocused on improving our comprehensive knowledge base and customer profile and support systems, which in92


turn will assist us in the expansion of our business. We also propose to strengthen the technology in ourjewellery appraisal process. We believe that improvements in technology will also reduce our operational andprocessing time and thereby improve our operating efficiencies.In addition, we view risk management as crucial to the expansion of our Gold Loan business. We thereforecontinually 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,market risk and operational risk. We propose to make significant investments in personnel, technology andinfrastructure in order to improve process efficiencies and mitigate business risks. We have recruited individualswho have significant risk management experience and plan to retain this focus in hiring additional riskmanagement personnel. Going forward, we plan to continue to adapt our risk management procedures to takeaccount of trends we have identified, including our loan loss experience. We believe that prudent riskmanagement policies and development of tailored credit procedures will allow us to expand our Gold Loanfinancing business without experiencing significant increases in non-performing assets.Attract and retain high quality talentThe intellectual capital of our management and finance teams, as well as other professionals in our business, iscritical to our success, and we accordingly intend to continue to focus on attracting and retaining high qualitytalent. In order to achieve this, we will continue to capitalize on our strengths in the area of recruiting. Inparticular, we plan to consolidate our position as an employer of choice within the NBFC sector. We currentlyconduct training programs periodically across our regional training centers. We have also developed and willcontinue to develop targeted compensation schemes designed to retain our key management personnel andprofessionals, such as offering performance-linked salaries.New line of businessPursuant to the approval of our shareholders in the EGM on May 31, 2011, we intend to commence a new lineof business in travel and tourism. Our Company holds an Authorised Dealer Category II license from the RBIfor its FOREX operations. To augment our Company‟s income from such operations, it was thought desirable toventure into this new line of business. Our Company proposes to act as a travel agent, tour operator, transportagent and contractor. Further, our Company proposes to arrange and operate tours and to act as representativesof airlines, railways and arranging road, air, water ticket booking.Our Gold Loan BusinessOur core business is providing Gold Loans, which are typically small loans secured by the pledge of household,used, gold jewellery. Loan amounts advanced by us are typically within the range of Rs. 1,000.00 to Rs. 1.00million per loan transaction and typically remain outstanding approximately for an average tenor of 120 days.As of March 31, 2011, we had approximately 1.57 million Gold Loan accounts, aggregating to Rs. 63,705.41million in principal amount (net of assignments).In the fiscal years 2011, 2010 and 2009, our gross Gold Loan portfolio yield representing gross interest incomeon gross gold loans as a percentage of gross average outstanding of gold loans, for the same period were retailloan portfolio yielded an interest rate of 24.95%, 27.88% and 25.50%, respectively, per annum. In the fiscalyears 2011, 2010 and 2009, income from interest earned on our Gold Loans constituted 97.62%, 95.67% and86.20%, respectively, of our total income.We are able to offer a variety of Gold Loan schemes to our customers to suit their individual needs. As of May31, 2011, we have 21 different schemes in place. The schemes differ in relation to the amount advanced perevaluated gram of gold, the interest rate chargeable and the amount of the loan. Some of our schemes areavailable only in certain geographical areas and newly opened branches.The elements of a scheme do not remain constant and are dependent on external factors such as the market priceof gold, our cost of funds, the advance and the rate of interest that is offered by our competitors. To maintainconsistency and ensure that our standards are not compromised, we have kept the procedures and processesinvolved in each gold finance transaction generally the same across the different schemes. We also allowcustomers to prepay their loans without penalty, and we do not have a minimum loan size.Gold Loan Disbursement Process93


The principal form of security that we accept is wearable, household, used, gold jewellery. We do not acceptbullion, gold biscuits, gold bars, new mass-produced gold jewellery or medallions unless it is pledged alongsideused jewellery, and we restrict acceptance of jewellery from other money-lenders. While these restrictionsnarrow the pool of assets that may be provided to us as security, we believe that it provides us with thefollowing key advantages:It filters out spurious jewellery that may be pledged by jewellers and goldsmiths. We find thathousehold, 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 fortimely 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 asmuch as the worth of gold that is owned by an average Indian household. This prevents our exposure tolarge-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 ofgold content in the jewellery. We value the gold jewellery brought by customers based on our centralizedpolicies and guidelines. We generally lend between 70% and 85% of the price of gold assumed by us, which isgenerally lower than the market price of gold at that time. Within this range, the actual loan amount variesaccording to the type of jewellery pledged. While jewellery can be appraised based on a variety of factors, suchas total weight, weight of gold content, production cost, style, brand and value of any gemstones, we appraisethe gold jewellery solely based on its gold content. Our Gold Loans are therefore generally well collateralizedbecause the actual value of the gold jewellery is higher than our appraised value of the gold jewellery when theloan is disbursed.The amount we lend against an item and the total value of the pledged gold we hold fluctuates according to themarket price of gold. However, an increase in the price of gold will not automatically result in an increase in thevalue of our Gold Loan portfolio unless the per gram rate is revised by our corporate office. Similarly, sinceadequate margins are built in at the time of the loan disbursement and owing to the short tenure of these loans onaverage, a decrease in the price of gold generally has little impact on our interest income. However, a sustaineddecrease in the market price of gold could cause a decrease in the growth rate of Gold Loans in our loanportfolio. See “Risk Factors - Volatility in the market price of gold may adversely affect our financial conditionand results of operations.”All our Gold Loans have a maximum term of 12 months; however, customers may redeem the loan at any time.Our Gold Loans typically remain outstanding approximately for an average tenor of 120 days. In most cases,interest is paid only at the time the principal is repaid. In the event that a loan is not repaid on time and afterproviding due notice to the customer, the unredeemed pledged gold is disposed of on behalf of the customer insatisfaction of the principal and interest charges. Any surplus arising out of the disposal of the pledged gold isrefunded to the customer. In the event that the recoverable amount is more than the realizable value of thepledged gold, the customer remains liable for the shortfall. We make provisions for losses that we believe arenot recoverable from the customer when the respective loans remain outstanding after six months from the dateof agreed tenor of the loan.The processes involved in approving and disbursing a Gold Loan are divided into three phases: Predisbursement;Post-disbursement; and Release of the pledge. When a loan is repaid, we give the customer theoption to pledge the security again and obtain another loan.Pre-DisbursementPre-disbursement processes include all the actions that are carried out from the moment a customer enters any ofour branches for procuring a Gold Loan until the customer receives the loan amount and include the following:Appraisal of the GoldThe first step in the process is the appraisal or evaluation of the gold to be used as security for the Gold Loan.Each of our branches has designated personnel for gold appraisal who operate under a clear policy regardingtheir function and responsibilities. The initial appraisal is performed by a trained employee who has experiencein appraising the gold content of jewellery. The initial appraisal is then verified by a second trained employee.94


Additionally, if the loan amount is above Rs. 10,000, the appraisal must be verified by the assistant branch head.However, if the loan amount is above Rs. 20,000, the appraisal must be verified by the branch head.Several steps are involved in the gold appraisal process. We first test the authenticity of the gold in accordancewith standard guidelines that are applied across all our branches. This process involves several principal tests,which include the nitric acid test, the touchstone test, checking for hallmarks and the sound test.We then determine the gross weight of the gold jewellery by weighing the jewellery. From the gross weight, wededuct for purity and stone weight to arrive at net weight. We have determined a constant percentage deductionthat applies depending on the purity of the gold, which is based on the proportion of gold contained in thejewellery in relation to other metals. As purity decreases, the percentage deduction that is applied to the grossweight increases in order to arrive at the net weight. The weight of stones and other material that is embedded inthe jewellery is also deducted from the gross weight to determine the net weight. The net weight is thenconverted into 22 carat purity levels.In order to determine the loan amount that can be advanced against a specific piece of jewellery, or the loan tovalue, the net weight of the jewellery is multiplied against a fixed constant, which is the 90 days trailing averageof the price of gold, or the spot price of gold, whichever is lower.Appraisal of the CustomerSince the disbursement of the Gold Loan is primarily based on the value of the pledged gold, the customer‟screditworthiness is not a major factor in the loan decision. However, each branch complies with standard “knowyour customer” (“KYC”) policies and other customer appraisal procedures, depending on the amount of theGold Loan.Compliance with the KYC policies ensures that the personal data provided by a particular customer is accurate.For loans up to Rs. 50,000, the customer must provide a document that confirms the customer‟s identity, whichcould be a Government issued document, such as a passport, driver‟s license, PAN card, election card or rationcard. For loans above Rs. 50,000, proof of address is also required. Any KYC document that is received isverified for authenticity. A KYC register is maintained in every branch to enter all KYC related details of ourcustomers. We are in the process of implementing additional identification confirmation procedures, includingretaining a photograph of each customer in our system, and confirmation of the customer‟s mobile number bygeneration of a unique identification number through text message at the time of the pledge.If the outstanding loan in the account of a customer is Rs. 100,000 or more, an information statement isgenerated by our internal system, which is tracked by the area head. Further, we monitor individually customerswho have loans outstanding in excess of Rs. 1,000,000. In addition, the system generates daily alert reportsbased on certain pre-set parameters, which are tracked by the area head. All of these processes are supported byour technology platform.DocumentationThe standard set of documents that are executed in a typical Gold Loan transaction include the gold loan slip,the pawn ticket and the demand promissory note cum terms and conditions. Basic details of the pledge, such asthe name of the customer and the net weight of the jewellery pledged is recorded on the gold loan slip, which isretained by us. The pawn ticket, which contains the details of the customer and the pledged jewellery, is filled inby the employee who appraised the gold and a copy is retained by the customer. The demand promissory note isan undertaking by the customer to repay the loan amount with the interest to the Company. The terms andconditions that are contained in the demand promissory note empower us to sell the pledged jewellery if thecustomer defaults on the Gold Loan. In addition to these documents, we keep additional internal records thatspecify the customer and the pledged jewellery. We identify and correct data entry errors in customer datathrough a process of day-book checking.Post-DisbursementCustody of the Pledged GoldThe pledged gold jewellery is packed separately by staff of the branch in a polythene pouch with the relevantdocuments about the loan and the customer, and then stored in the safe or strong room of the branch. Once95


lodged in the safe or strong room of the concerned branch, the branch head and the assistant branch head are thejoint custodians of the gold.The safes and strong rooms in which the gold jewellery is kept are built in accordance with industry practice.The strong rooms are vaults with reinforced concrete cement structures. Separate cupboards are used within thestrong rooms for the safe keeping of the gold collateral. At present, approximately 489 of our branches are usingstrong rooms. In 1,703 branches where the volume of business is comparatively low or where the constructionof a strong room is not possible, we use iron safes, which are also built in accordance with industry practice.Inventory ControlOnce the pledged gold is packed and moved to the safe or strong room, colour coded stickers are affixed on thepacket. Tamper proof stickers are also affixed on the jewellery packets to ensure inventory control. Additionalstickers are used to seal packets by persons examining packages subsequently, including our internal auditors. Inaddition to the color coding, these stickers also contain details of the persons inspecting the gold. We haveprocedures in place for random verification of gold packets by the branch heads.Branch Security and Safety MeasuresEnsuring the safety and security of the branch premises is vital to our business since cash and gold inventory arestored in each branch. Branch security measures implemented by us include:Burglar alarms: Burglar alarms are installed at all branches and phone numbers of the assistant branchhead, branch head, the concerned police station and control room are integrated into the alarm system,which triggers a call to these numbers if the alarm goes off.Joint custodianship by the branch head and the assistant branch head: Both the branch head and theassistant branch head hold the keys to the safe or strong room, which can only be opened if both keysare inserted at the same time.Security guards: Security guards are recruited through approved agencies and are present at night at allof our branches. Day time security is also provided at some of our branches, depending on the securityof the particular area and the Gold Loans outstanding in the respective branch. In the absence of asecurity guard, the branch head or the assistant branch head informs the security control room at thehead office and alternative arrangements are made. In addition, we have recently implementedpatrolling services to reduce risk of burglary.IP cameras/CCTVs: As of May 31, 2011, we have completed the installation of IP or CCTV cameras at1,945 branches. We intend to continue to install cameras at our branches and at least two cameras atbranches that are located in high risk areas.Rules in relation to the cash counter: The cash counter is always locked from the inside and the cashieris required to tally the cash against the cash book at least every three hours. Shifting of cash from onestorage point to another is recorded in the cash movement register that is maintained for this purpose.Cash that is held in the cash cabin at any point in time does not generally exceed the retention limitprescribed for this purpose. If there is a case where such cash exceeds the retention limit, it is generallydue to a banking holiday or other business reasons.Release of the PledgeWe monitor our loan accounts and recovery of interest on an ongoing basis. Once a loan is fully repaid, thepledged gold jewellery is returned to the customer. When a customer does not repay a loan on or before itsmaturity, we initiate the recovery process and dispose of the pledged gold to satisfy the amount owed to us,including both the principal and accrued interest. Before starting the recovery process, we inform the customerthrough registered letters or legal notices. The recovery procedure typically commences after 15 days from thedate of maturity.When a loan is repaid, we give the customer the option to pledge the security again and obtain another loan. Theprocedure of re-pledging entails the same procedure as that of a pledge and is accompanied by the same mode of96


documentation that a pledge entails.We also reserve the right, subject to notification to the customer, to sell the pledged gold even before a loanbecomes past due in the event the market value of the underlying pledged gold falls below amounts outstandingon the loan.Our Other Business InitiativesIn the fiscal years 2011, 2010 and 2009, revenues from our businesses other than Gold Loans constituted 1.02%,2.61% and 10.44% respectively, of our total income.Fee Based ServicesFee based services accounted for 0.17% of our total income for the financial year ended March 31, 2011. Feebased services include money transfer and foreign exchange services. We act as sub-agents to Indianrepresentatives for money transfer inward remittance and enter into representation agreements for the same.Under these agreements, we are entitled to a commission for the services provided depending on the amount ofmoney transferred and the location from which the money is transferred to us. We are compliant with theprovisions contained in the Prevention of Money Laundering Act in relation to the business of money transfer.Foreign exchange service involves the repatriation of money in the form of foreign exchange by an Indiancitizen to his account from an account outside India. We have an Authorized Dealer II License from the RBI inconnection with this business activity. We also have the right to appoint franchisees. In addition, we assist incurrency exchanges and sale of Travelers‟ Cheques for a variety of purposes as permitted under the FEMA. Weare associated with HDFC Bank, IndusInd Bank and Thomas Cook for money transfer outward remittancefacilities.Asset <strong>Finance</strong>We have in the past provided loans for the acquisition of assets, particularly vehicles. This loan portfolio as ofMarch 31, 2011 aggregated to Rs. 47.08 million in principal amount, which is 0.07% of total loans andadvances. We do not intend to continue this business.Gold Coins, Gold Purchase and Gold StorageWe convert some of the forfeited gold into gold coins and we sell the same as gold coins through our branchesin those states where we have registration under the local VAT Acts. The weight of the gold coins ranges fromone gram to ten grams and their purity is either 22 carat or 24 carat.Business, Personal and Security LoansWe are also engaged in the business of providing, personal loans and security loans, and this accounted for anegligible portion of our total income for the financial year ended March 31, 2011. We are dedicated toproviding loans to meet the business needs of our customers. The minimum loan amount advanced by us is Rs.10,000 and the duration of the loan varies from 30 days to 100 days. These business loans are sanctioned tosmall size or medium sized enterprises. We also advance loans against the security of life insurance policies.These loans are repayable in equal monthly installments. In addition, we offer customized gold purchaseprograms, or Swarnanidhi schemes, which allow our customers to purchase gold over time ranging from 12months to 60 months.Our business, personal, security and other loan portfolio along with loans under the Swarnanidhi Scheme as ofMarch 31, 2011 aggregated to Rs. 83.09 million, which is 0.13% of our total gross loans in principal amount.Marketing, Sales and Customer CareOur sales and marketing efforts are led by a team of 19 managers who guide the marketing and sales efforts oftheir respective regions and who are supported by 11 marketing executives and 89 customer relation executives.Our marketing team provides advertisement support to all of our branches located in various parts of India,creates new advertising materials, creates new marketing strategies before launching a branch office, monitorsthe competition from other companies and creates new strategies to develop our businesses. Our marketing team97


also provides additional support to improve business of non-performing branches. We use multiple mediaagencies for creative content and advertising campaigns, and our media department coordinates with variousinternal departments for managing their publicity requirements.For the financial year ended 2011 and 2010, our total advertisement expenditure was Rs. 1,038.51 million andRs. 482.81 million, respectively, to support our aggressive brand building initiatives. For the financial yearended, 2011 and 2010, our advertising expenses were 8.79% and 10.10% of our total income, respectively, ascompared to 4.92% and 7.71% of our total income for the financial year ended 2009 and 2008, respectively.Currently film and television celebrities, such as Akshay Kumar, Mithun Chakraborty, Vikram V. Vinod,Mohanlal, Venkatesh, Puneeth Rajkumar and Sachin Khedekar, promote our brand in our advertisementcampaigns.We have developed a number of policies to retain our customers, the most significant amongst them being theissue of „royalty cards‟ and the sale of insurance policies. We issue royalty cards (categorized into silver, goldand platinum) to our customers who meet certain standards with respect to KYC requirements, timelyrepayment and quick redemption of the loan. Eligibility depends upon how long the customer has been doingbusiness with us, as well as the number of loans taken out. The royalty cards reward the customer with higherLTV and lower interest rates as compared to other customers.Risk ManagementRisk management forms an integral element of our business. We continue to improve our policies andimplement our policies rigorously for the efficient functioning of our business. As a lending institution, we areexposed to various risks that are related to our gold lending business and operating environment. Our objectivein our risk management processes is to appreciate, measure and monitor the various risks that we are subject toand to follow policies and procedures to address these risks. We do so through our risk managementarchitecture. The major types of risk we face in our businesses are credit risk, operational risk and market risk.Credit RiskCredit risk is the possibility of loss due to the failure of any counterparty to abide by the terms and conditions ofany financial contract with us. Credit risk in our Gold Loan business is relatively low because all our loans aregenerally over-collateralized by pledged gold. We aim to reduce credit risk through a rigorous loan approval andgold appraisal process, KYC compliance procedures and a strong non-performing asset (“NPA”) monitoring andrecovery mechanism. This risk is diminished because the gold jewellery used as security for our loans can bereadily liquidated, and the possibility of recovering less than the amount due to us is relatively low.We also mitigate credit risk by not disbursing loans in excess of specified limits to the same customer, and forloan amounts exceeding a certain limit, we undertake a credit check or profiling of the borrower before a loan isapproved. We have developed methods to peg the value of the loan amount to the moving average price of gold.We also decrease credit risk by focusing on the quality of the pledged gold. Our internal control system ensuresindependent verification of the gold by at least two officials at the branch level. The level of verification at thebranch level increases as the loan value increases. In addition, the quality of gold is checked by the area headthrough random check. The risk profile of each account is monitored by the risk management division on anongoing basis through exception reports.Operational RiskOperational risk is broadly defined as the risk of direct or indirect loss due to the failure of systems, people orprocesses, or due to external events. We have instituted a series of checks and balances and audit reviews toaddress the various operational risks.Although we disburse loans in very short periods of time, we have clearly defined appraisal methods to mitigateappraisal risk. Inaccurate appraisal of the pledged gold may lead to funds being advanced against low value orspurious gold. This risk is also mitigated by our policies on internal control, generation of alert reports andadditional requirements for high value loans.We also have detailed guidelines on movement of cash or gold to address custodial risk, which is the riskassociated with the safety and security of our gold inventory. Methods of internal control and vigilance98


mechanisms aid in controlling this risk. For example, the branch head and the assistant branch head are the jointcustodians of the pledged gold, which means that the strong rooms or vaults can only be opened if two keys areinserted at the same time. In addition, we are in the process of installing surveillance cameras across of all ourbranches, and security guards are present at night at all of our branches. We also have policies that requireemployee rotation both within the branch, as well as within different branches located within the same area, andwe undertake significant employee profiling and background verification checks before hiring and continuouslymonitor their lifestyle changes. In addition, our insurance covers employee theft or fraud and burglary.Market RiskMarket risk arises from the decline in the value of the pledged gold due to fluctuation in gold prices. This risk isin part mitigated by the 15% to 30% margin we build in to our rate per gram used to calculate the loan amount,as well as linking the LTV to the 90 day average price of gold, or the spot rate, whichever is lower. This risk isfurther reduced because we appraise the gold jewellery and fund loans based solely on the weight of goldcontent without considering design cost, production cost or value of gemstones. In addition, the sentimentalvalue of the gold jewellery to the customers may induce repayment and redemption of the pledged gold even ifthe value of the pledged gold falls below the value of the repayment amount. A prompt and effective recoverymechanism also helps us deal with this risk.Risk Management ArchitectureIn order to address the risks that are inherent to our business, we have developed a risk management architecturethat includes a risk management committee, internal audit department, vigilance department and a riskmanagement department.Risk Management Committee. 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 thevarious risks that we face in our businesses.Internal Audit Department. Our internal audit department assists in the management of operational riskusing our centralized monitoring systems. Separate divisions of our internal audit department have beenput in place to handle the audit of the departments of the head office and those of the branch offices.The audit of the head office is divided into two categories: (i) system and compliance audit; and (ii)accounts audit. A branch inspection is carried out every 90 days with the focus on the verification ofthe Gold Loan pledges. In addition, a branch audit is carried out every 45 days to monitor theincremental pledges since the date of the branch inspection and the documentation in connection withGold Loans, and a spot audit can be conducted at any branch at any time.Vigilance Department. We have also put in place a separate department for vigilance inspections. Thevigilance team conducts surprise inspections of high/medium risk branches and other branches basedon any report or detection of serious deviations or irregularities and undertakes the responsibility ofvisiting branches to oversee the implementation of risk mitigation initiatives and improvement ofcustomer service.Risk Management Department.

Currently, such NBFCs are required to maintain a minimum capital ratio consisting of Tier I andTier II capital which shall not be less than 15% of its aggregate risk weighted assets on balance sheet and of riskadjusted value of off-balance sheet items. Also, the total of Tier II capital, at any point of time, shall not exceedone hundred per cent of Tier I capital. We are also required to transfer up to 20.0% of our annual profit to areserve fund and make provisions for NPAs. We had a capital adequacy ratio of 29.13%, 29.34% and 31.74% asof March 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

For example, atthe pre-disbursement stage, KYC details as well as other details of customer appraisal are entered and stored inthe system for future reference. All the details contained in the documents that are relevant to a loan transactionare entered into the system. The system filters the transaction at each level to confirm whether a particular set ofpledged jewellery meets the required specifications.Once the inputs to arrive at the net weight are entered into the system, the system generates the net weight aswell as the loan advance that can be made against it under the several schemes that we offer. Once the customerchooses the scheme, an entry to that effect is made and a pawn ticket is generated.With respect to the post-disbursement phase, the interest due on each loan at any given point in time after101


disbursement is generated by the system. If the loan is settled by the customer prior to maturity, the systemcalculates the amount repayable and also records the repayment and recovery of the pledge. When a loanmatures, the system indicates the same and we subsequently notify the customer.The system generates a list of all loans that are overdue on a particular date. All details of the sale process offorfeited jewellery are also entered into the system.Our business, though carried on across the country, is controlled centrally at the head office. All transactions ofpledging and release that occur in all our branches are recorded and results are generated on a real time basis byour internal IT infrastructure. Access to this data is restricted to certain designated personnel and alerts arepassed on to the concerned regional head upon the occurrence of specified events.Up-to-date information on gold inventory and cash reserves in each branch helps us track our liquidity positionand plan for shortfalls well in advance. We are able to avert liquidity shortfalls in any particular branch bytransferring cash from one branch to another. In this manner, we ensure that each branch is centrally managedby the head office and off-site surveillance of each branch is an ongoing process.Treasury OperationsOur treasury department undertakes liquidity management by seeking to maintain an optimum level of liquidityand monitors cash and bank balances. The objective is to ensure sufficient cash reserves at all our brancheswhile at the same time avoid holding cash in excess of what may be required in the ordinary course. Sincealmost all disbursements are made in cash, we maintain an average of Rs. 1.00 million in cash across ourbranches. Each regional office has the primary responsibility for directing branches within the region to movesurplus funds to deficit branches. If there is a surplus of funds in the region as a whole, such surpluses aredeposited in cash credit/overdraft accounts at the corporate level. Deficits at a regional level are managed bycash transfers from our treasury department. We monitor cash and balances on daily basis using ourmanagement information systems, and have arrangements with various banks for the transfer of bank balancesbetween locations. Cost of movement of cash also is taken into consideration while deciding optimum cashlevels in each location. We use a real time gross settlement (“RTGS”) facility if the remitting and receivingbanks are different, or through internal transfer if both the branches belong to the same bank. We also use cashvan services for delivery and collection of cash to and from certain of our branches.Funding SourcesOur lines of credit include borrowings from financial institutions and amounts raised through the issue of nonconvertibledebentures (“NCDs”). We also undertake the assignment of receivables from Gold Loan advances tospecified financial institutions. Our interest on borrowings and assignments, as a percentage of our total loansand assignments, have decreased from 12.0% as of March 30, 2009 to 9.8% as of March 30, 2010 to 9.16% as ofMarch 31, 2011.Borrowings from financial institutions constitute a significant portion of the total borrowings from secured andunsecured loans availed of by us as at March 31, 2011. We have executed loan agreements with several bankswith the object of availing funds from them on certain stipulated terms and conditions. As at March 31, 2011,we have also issued 1,328,535 secured NCDs ranging between Rs. 1,000.00 and Rs. 1.00 million, eachredeemable at par at the end of the term of each series of these debentures, which ranges from one to five years.We pay an interest ranging from 7.50% to 13.00 % per annum on these NCDs. See ―Description of CertainIndebtedness‖ Beginning on page 125.We also attempt to balance our interest-bearing liabilities, some of which bear floating interest rates, against ourinterest-earning assets, which bear fixed interest rates. As of March 31, 2011, 43% of our borrowings hadfloating rates of interest, comprising primarily working capital loans from banks and other financial institutions.We also assign receivables from Gold Loan advances to banks, financial institutions and others. The assignmenttransactions are conducted on the basis of internal estimates of our funding requirements, and may vary fromtime to time. In the event an assignee bank does not realize the receivables due under such loans, the relevantbank would have recourse to a corporate guarantee issued by us and/or cash collateral and the underlyingsecurity. For the fiscal years 2011, 2010 and 2009, the amounts assigned were Rs. 11,182.83 million, Rs.7,077.02 million and Rs. 5,381.42 million respectively.102

Other lenders may lend money on an unsecured basis, at interest rates that may be lower thanour service charges and on other terms that may be more favorable than ours.

OUTSTANDING LITIGATION AND DEFAULTSOur Company is subjected to various legal proceedings from time to time, mostly arising in the ordinary courseof its business. The legal proceedings are initiated by us and also by various customers. These legal proceedingsare primarily in the nature of (a) consumer complaints (b) arbitration claims (c) criminal complaints (d) civilcases. We believe that the number of proceedings in which we are involved in is not unusual for a company ofits size in the context of doing business in India.Except as described below, we are not involved in any legal proceedings, and no proceedings are threatened,which may have, or have had, a material adverse effect on our business, properties, financial condition oroperations.As on June 30, 2011, we have been made party to the following cases:1. Our Company has filed writ appeal no. 35045 of 2009 before the Supreme Court of India against theorder of the Kerala High Court in 541 of 2007 dated November 18, 2009 directing all NBFCs toregister under the Kerala Money-Lenders Act. The High Court of Kerala had earlier struck down anotification passed under the Kerala Money-Lender Act that imposed an interest ceiling of 12.00% onadvances made by all entities that are covered under that Act. Further, the Government of Karnatakahas issued an order exempting the Company from the applicability of the provisions of themoneylenders‟ legislation of Karnataka. While our Company has received partial exemptions from twoStates (Kerala and Karnataka) from the applicability of the provisions of similar money lendinglegislations, in the event the Supreme Court decides the matter against us, our Company would berequired to register all branches located in Kerala as well as in other States which have enacted similarlegislations under such legislations in the respective States. A stipulated registration fee is payable onthe registration of each branch and in addition to that, each registered branch would also be required todeposit a certain sum of money with the prescribed authority as security for observing the terms of thelicence issued. Further, the Company would not be able to charge interest beyond a limit specifiedunder such legislations and as a result the revenues of the Company may fall substantially.The Kerala Money-Lenders Act prescribes a maximum penalty of imprisonment for a period up to 3years and a fine of Rs. 50,000 for carrying out business without a license in the event that the Companyis found to be in violation of the same.The matter is currently pending hearing before the Supreme Court of India. Now the Supreme Courtvide its order dated December 16, 2009 directed that status quo be maintained until further orders.2. The Executive Chairman of our Company, V. P.

We have reviewed the accompanying statement of unaudited financial results of <strong>Manappuram</strong> <strong>Finance</strong><strong>Limited</strong> (formerly <strong>Manappuram</strong> General <strong>Finance</strong> and Leasing <strong>Limited</strong>) („the Company‟) for the quarterended June 30, 2011 (the “Statement”), except for the disclosures regarding „Public Shareholding‟ and„Promoter and Promoter Group Shareholding‟ which have been traced from disclosures made by themanagement and have not been reviewed by us. This Statement is the responsibility of the Company'smanagement and has been approved by the Board of Directors. Our responsibility is to issue a report on theStatement based on our review.2. We conducted our review in accordance with the Standard on Review Engagement (SRE) 2410, Review ofInterim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity issued by the Institute ofChartered Accountants of India. This standard requires that we plan and perform the review to obtainmoderate assurance as to whether the Statement is free of material misstatement. A review is limitedprimarily to inquiries of company personnel and analytical procedures applied to financial data and thusprovides less assurance than an audit. We have not performed an audit and accordingly, we do not expressan audit opinion.3. Based on our review conducted as above, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe thatthe accompanying Statement of unaudited financial results prepared in accordance with recognition andmeasurement principles laid down in Accounting Standard 25 “Interim Financial Reporting”, notifiedpursuant to the Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2006, (as amended) and other recognisedaccounting practices and policies has not disclosed the information required to be disclosed in terms ofClause 41 of the Listing Agreement including the manner in which it is to be disclosed, or that it containsany material misstatement.For S.R.

The company has beenperforming well with good asset quality, strong risk management practices, adequate liquidityand low cost of funds. The gold loan business is always exposed to the risk of steep pricemovements which calls for constant vigil and immediate appropriate action to mitigate any loss.MAGFIL’s ability to manage its business well and respond to market needs is displayed from itsestablished track record. BWR expects MFL to continue to demonstrate such abilities to furtherimprove its performance.As per recent RBI announcement, priority agriculture sector lending benefit, available to banksfor lending to gold loan NBFC’s has been removed. Therefore, the cost of funds for the NBFC’s isexpected to increase which may result in lower profitability due to slight contraction in NIM’s.Similarly, the impact of the State Money Lenders Act for NBFCs, the decision on which isawaited from the Supreme Court, could affect the MFL’s lending rates and would also increasethe operational expenditure as the NBFC’s would be required to register with all stateauthorities and to comply with state regulations.www.brickworkratings.com June 20114
