LOCAL AGENCY FURTHER INFORMATION

 

History

 

Incorporated in Dec.'78 as ARM Group Enterprises Private Limited, subject was converted into a public limited company in Oct.'80. It was promoted by Mayank Poddar. The company provides financial services like leasing, hire-purchase, bill discounting and real estate leasing and development. Currently, S Niyogi is the chairman and M Poddar is the managing director. Other group companies include Magma Petropack, Magma Marketing and Magma Development. 

 
In Mar.'95, MLL came out with a rights issue of 13% PCDs, aggregating Rs 100.400 Millions to part-finance its expansion. MLL also plans to forge strategic alliances with international finance majors to consolidate its position in leasing and hire-purchase.

 

Business 
 
The year under review witnessed certain changes in the automobile industry, such as implementation of VAT in many states, changes in models in compliance with new environmental norms coming into place etc. Many states witnessed erratic and late monsoon hitting sporadically offtake of vehicles and stalling construction activities in a few regions. Growth slowed down in Cars and Commercial Vehicles sectors to 7.7% and 10.10% respectively during the year under review. Keeping in view the market dynamics, the Company launched high yield Used Commercial Vehicle finance business to cater to customers in the semi urban and rural markets and strategic construction equipment finance business to participate in the burgeoning infrastructure sector. Besides, the Company strengthened its insurance services to its clientele and launched personal loans business through an associate company, earning fee based income on both these counts. 

 
The Company continued to make substantial investments in strengthening its IT platform and enriching human capital through role enhancements to reach higher levels of productivity and profitability. The principal retail finance skills of sales, credit & collection have been deep rooted at all operational units of the Company under the leadership of specialized professionals, preparing a strong platform for managing its portfolio and undertaking competitive challenges for future. 

 
Against the backdrop of slow industry growth, the Company clocked an impressive growth in disbursements of 33% to Rs. 18196.300 Millions in 2005-06. The table below depicts achievements in various products lines with respective growth percentages.

 Dividend 
 
 The Directors propose a tax-free Dividend of 18% on Equity Shares, pro-rata, amounting to Rs 24.031 and 9.70%, 12.25%, 13.25% on Cumulative Non-Convertible Redeemable Preference Shares of Rs.100 each, alloted on 17 February, 2006 (as applicable as per the terms of allotment). 

 

Corporate Governance 

 
The Company has consistently been complying with the Corporate Governance code prescribed by SEBI and a detailed report on Corporate Governance together with a certificate of compliance from the statutory auditors, as required by Clause 49 of the Stock Exchange Listing Agreement, form part of the Annual Report. 

 

RBI Regulations - Compliance 

 
The Company continues to carry on its business as a Non Deposit Taking Company and follows prudent financial management norms as applicable and continues to progressively follow the internationally accepted accounting principles on revenue recognition, provisioning and asset classification which are more stringent than the guidelines prescribed by RBI. A detailed note is appended in Schedule 16 - Notes on Accounts. The gross and net NPA stood at NIL and NIL respectively. The Company has appended a statement containing additional particulars as per Clause 19 of Schedule 16 of Notes on Accounts. 

 

Financial performance 

 
For any company engaged in the business of financing, the biggest challenge lies in the mobilization of funds at the lowest possible cost, onward deployment of such funds at the highest possible realizations as well as accelerated deployment. 

 
Subject today competes not only with peer level non-banking finance companies but also large commercial banks. These banks are advantageously placed due to their lower cost of funds. Due to the sheer volumes they are also better placed to absorb a rise in interest rates, can generate income from multiple sources and can leverage scale for enhanced profitability. 

 
From this perspective, it would appear that the playing field is skewed against the company. However, Magma has survived and succeeded, due to a combination of factors like: 

 
Better treasury management and continuous swap of high cost by relatively lower cost of funds e.g., CP, FCNR (B) loan, Securitisation etc. 

 
Enhanced bank finance at best competitive rates largely due to strong financials and impeccable credit history 


Entry into low cost and high yield products 

 
Better cash management 

 
Presence in locations not accessed by commercial banks 

 
Quicker decision making 

 
Disbursements 
 
The Company disbursed Rs.18196.300 Millions in 2005-06, which was approximately 33 per cent higher than the previous year. This generated a 55 per cent increase in the Company's total income from Rs.980.200 Millions in 2004-05 to Rs.1515.800 Millions in 2005-06. 

 
Disbursement of products financed 

Products 2004-05 2005-06 

 
Commercial vehicles 7238.300, 8069.700 Passenger cars andmulti-utility vehicles 3252.000, 4516.300 

 
Construction equipments 3219.400, 4100.600 

 
Used commercialVehicle finance NA 1040.400 

 
Strategic CE NA 469.400 

 
Expenses 
 
Subject focused on the mobilisation of funds at the best competitive rate: however marginal cost of funds at 7.23 per cent in 2005-06 was higher than 6.95 per cent in the previous year resulting in higher interest outgo from Rs. 242.000 Millions in 2004-05 to Rs. 355.800 Millions in 2005-06. The company swapped its high cost working capital loans (the cash credit, demand loans, etc.) with low cost funds (viz. commercial paper, short-term loans and FCNR (B) loans) wherever possible through a better treasury management process. 
 
The company's transaction cost declined from 45.66 percent of the aggregate revenues in 2004-05 to 38.79 per cent in 2005-06. For sustaining continuous growth in volumes, Magma has invested adequately in human and physical capital: the company increased its gross block from Rs 503.900 Millions to Rs.543.100 Millions and employee costs from Rs 197.400 Millions in 2004-05 to Rs 250.300 Millions in 2005-06. 

 

Profitability 
 
Subject strengthened its internal rate of return on credit operations through an improved product mix. A healthy ratio between new and refinanced cases yielded a better IRR. Thrust on the financing of used commercial vehicles which yield higher returns and an entry into Strategic CE areas have augured well for better yields and higher volumes. The contribution from insurance business and the sale of personal loans have further added to company's profitability. 

 
Consequently, the Company's profit after tax increased by 44.43 per cent from Rs.139.700 Millions  in 2004-05 to Rs. 201.700 Millions in 2005-06. Despite slow industry growth and lower ticket size, business per employee increased 1.95 per cent from Rs.12.400 Millions  in 2004-05 to Rs.12.700 Millions in 2005-06. Transaction costs declined from Rs.15487 per contract in 2004-05 to Rs.15151 per contract in 2005-06 due to operational integration and the introduction of a profit-centre approach in 2005-06. 

 

Outlook 
 
The outlook of Magma in 2006-07 is cautiously optimistic. India's broad economy is expected to grow, widening the market for the financing of commercial vehicles and construction equipment even as low industry entry barriers could enhance competition.
