In the event of liquidation of the Company, the holders of equity shares will be entitled to receive any of the remaining assets of the Company, after distribution of all preferential amounts.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

INDIA’S GOLD LOAN INDUSTRY

 

Gold production

 

India's gold production is a fraction of the world's output (around 2,500 tonnes a year), the only producer being Hutti Gold Mines in Karnataka (3.5 tonnes of gold a year). However, in terms of total government gold reserves, India ranks 11th globally with 557.7 tonnes. Over the last decade, the gold import into India hovered around 700 tonnes and in last two years, increased to around 900 tonnes.

 

Gold consumption

 

• India ranks as the largest consumer of gold globally, accounting for one-fourth of the world’s gold demand. Household gold consumption increased from US$ 19 billion in 2009 to US$ 45 billion in 2011. Over the past 10 years, household gold consumption has increased at a CAGR of 21%.

• Gold represented 10% of total Indian household savings in 2010-11.

• Globally, nearly 50% of the demand is in the form of jewellery, around 40% for investment in bars, coins, ETFs and similar investments; around 10% is for industrial use.

• In India, nearly 61% of the demand is in the form of jewellery and the rest is for investments

• Gold consumption accounted for 2.3% of GDP in 2011-12. Gold imports are an estimated 72% of India’s current account deficit.

 

Gold import market

 

India is the world's largest consumer of gold. India imported 969 tonnes in 2011 and is expected to import a lower quantum in 2012 (Source: World Gold Council). According to a report of the Prime Minister’s Economic Council (PMEAC), the country’s total gold imports during 2011-12 was likely to have touched US$ 58 billion, accounting for a sizeable part of the rising current account deficit (US$ 32.8 billion in the first half of 2011-12). However, India’s gold imports have already started falling. According to World Gold Council, the country’s gold imports declined from 298 tonnes in January-March 2011 quarter to 157 tonnes in the October- December 2011 quarter. PMEAC projected gold imports to slide to around US$ 38 billion in 2012-13 as gold prices remained high at around Rs. 28,000 per 10 grams.

 

Gold loan market

 

The vast size of gold present in India has translated into the creation of a large gold loan industry in India. The current market size of the organized sector including portfolio of NBFC’s and banks could be around Rs.1,500 bn. This is only a small portion of the total gold holding in India. Hence, the potential for further expansion of the gold loan market exist.

 

Interestingly, the size of India’s unorganised (partnership or sole proprietorship firms) gold loan sector has been estimated at least couple of times of the organised segment. At least 10-15 players currently operate in every Indian village or town, the majority being unorganised. India’s gold loan customers comprise the following: agriculturists, small businessmen, entrepreneurs, vendors, retail traders, contractors, transport operators, small and medium industries, self-employed professionals and salaried individuals.

 

Growth drivers of India’s gold loan market

 

The existence of large household savings in India due to socio-cultural reasons provides the basis for the development of the gold loan industry.

 

Further, the increase in gold prices over the last 11 years has positioned gold as an attractive investment option. The gold loan industry has grown in recent years due to the following reasons:

 

• A pioneering initiative by India’s NBFC sector to position gold loans as a convenient vehicle to enhance liquidity through product awareness.

• NBFC sector increased its branch network on a pan India level in rural and semi-urban areas resulting in an increase in new customer base.

• Transparency in the gold loan business and the ease with which loans can be availed prompted a shift of customer base from the country’s unorganised to organised sector

 

The role of NBFCs

 

The shift from India’s unorganised gold loan segment to the organised has been catalysed by the responsible role played by the country’s non-banking finance companies through the following provisions:

 

Low disbursal times: NBFCs disburse loans quicker than other players without compromising the documentation discipline and KYC requirements.

 

Fund availability: Since NBFCs have access to organized credit; the availability of funds is not a constraint. Since the unorganized sector operates through proprietary funds, availability of funds remains as a constraint.

 

Low interest rates: The interest rates charged by NBFCs have been lower than the rates charged by the country’s unorganised segment.

 

Flexible repayment options: NBFCs made it possible for the interest and principal repayment being bunched at the end of the period in a lump sum resulting in a higher level of customer comfort.

 

Transparent and standardized operating practices: The transparent and standardized operating practices by NBFCs enhanced customer comfort which increased customer footfalls for NBFCs.

 

 

SECTORAL CHALLENGES

 

Regulatory changes

 

Capping the loan to value is a welcome move as it will catalyse standardization in an industry which has reached a reasonable level of maturity. However, the level at which it has kept (60% of value of jewellery) may make it unattractive to borrowers who do not have additional gold holdings to make up for the shortage. This may drive them to the unorganized sector to which these norms do not apply.

 

Regulatory gaps

 

NBFCs do not have a level playing field vis a vis banks, since apart from the non applicability of LTV cap norms, banks have an advantage in terms of lower borrowing cost, lower capital requirement and lower risk weight. It is understood that bank’s gold loan portfolio carry zero risk weight if the LTV is less than 75%, virtually allowing them to operate without capital. In this scenario, customer service will be the key factor driving business for NBFC sector.

 

Funding

 

Bank funding will be critical for the growth of the sector. Though the exposure ceiling of bank to a single NBFC, having gold loans to the extent of 50% or more of its total financial assets, was reduced from 10% to 7.5% of the bank’s Total Capital Funds, there is adequate room for banks to further lend to the sector.

 

Negative perception / Image of the sector

 

While the regulatory measures were intended to bring standardization and reduce the growth of the sector, too many regulatory announcements in a short span of time and adverse media comments have sent out a negative perception. This has affected an individual company’s ability to attract funding from capital market investors like mutual funds, financial institutions etc. Bringing back the confidence of these capital market investors poses a big challenge to the sector.

 

 

OUTLOOK

 

India’s total gold holding is estimated at 18000 tonnes. Of this, around 1000 tonnes is estimated to be lying with

NBFCs and banks in the form gold loan assets under management. The remaining resides with Indian households (from the lower middle class to the upper rich). This represents a large market that could be progressively monetised for national economic benefit.

 

In the opinion of the Company, India’s organised gold loan sector could grow sustainably for a number of years even if there was only a switch from India’s unorganised sector to the organized through proper marketing initiatives and increase in the network. An effective LTV of 80%, coupled with a strong business focus and customized products, can potentially attract small borrowers, self-employed professionals, agriculturalists and artisans, among others. The credibility of the Indian organised gold loan segment could help catalyse social transformation especially in areas with high financial exclusion. The Company is optimistic of the long-term prospects of the business on account of a high 65% of India’s large private gold stock being held by rural households as a well as large proportion of India’s gold loan market remaining with the unorganised sector.

 

 

ECONOMIC SCENARIO

 

The fall in values of investments triggered primarily by the deceleration in economic growth and high inflation characterized the economic scenario in the year gone by. The huge fiscal and current account deficits in the context of declining export growth led to substantial erosion in the exchange rate of Indian rupee and triggered a sovereign rating reduction by some of the rating agencies. These developments throw a dark shadow on the growth prospects of the country in the fiscal 2012-13 and despite a huge consumption demand, the nation’s GDP growth reaching 8% looks improbable.

 

 

BUSINESS

 

Increase in foot print, aggressive marketing efforts and tweaking of products in response to market conditions enabled the Company to improve its loan book by 55% taking the outstanding to Rs.246736.000 Millions. The cost of borrowed funds went upto 12.20% compared to 8.87% in fiscal 2010-11. Despite this, they could, thanks to overall control on expenditure, efficient collection of interest and control on NPAs, retain the Net Interest Margin at 10.65%. Total income grew by a very creditable 96% to Rs.45490.600 Millions. Profit Before Tax rose by 75% to Rs.13312.500 Millions and Profit After Tax by 80% to Rs.8920.200 Millions. The Return on Average Retail Loans rose to 4.40% as compared to 4.24% in fiscal 2010-11.

 

Financial Year 2011-12 flags a significant mile stone in the gold loan industry as it marks the beginning of a consolidation phase and your Company too has taken cautious steps in moving towards such a positive direction. The Gross Retail Loan Assets under Management as on 31st March, 2012 stood at Rs.246736.000 Millions registering a year over year growth of 55%. While the total income grew by 96% to reach at Rs.45490.600 Millions on 31st March, 2012, Profit after tax stood at Rs.8920.200 Millions as against a figure of Rs.4941.800 Millions reported during the previous financial year.

 

945 new branches were opened during the financial year taking the branch network as on 31st March, 2012 to 3,678 branches spread across 21 states and 4 union territories. The average gold loan outstanding per branch has increased from Rs.57.500 Millions to Rs.66.400 Millions as on March 31, 2012.

Muthoot may turn 2,000 gold-loan outlets into bank branches

 

The largest pure-play gold mortgage player Muthoot Finance, which has applied for banking licence, has said it can easily launch commercial lending business with as many as 2,000 branches.

 

"We are confident of getting a banking licence from the Reserve Bank, given our reach in rural markets and our over a century of experience. In fact, our experience is the biggest asset and we are better suited than many other applicants in this regard," Muthoot Finance managing director George Alexander Muthoot told PTI from the headquarter in Kochi.

Many of its branches are in tier 2,3 & 4 towns and they can be immediately converted into a full-fledged bank branches. Muthoot said 4,200 branches, large existing customer base and strong brand image makes it an eligible candidate.

 

With 74 years in gold financing, the company has over 4,200 gold loan outlets across 21 states and four Union territories, and employee strength of over 25,000 with a gold loan portfolio over Rs 260000.000 Millions as of last fiscal.

 

"With our last mile connect in to the hinterland, a banking licence will enable us to play a larger role of financial inclusion by taking these services to the unbanked and undeserved population of the country," Muthoot further said, adding that around 60 per cent his existing branch network is spread across tier 2, 3 and 4 markets.

 

On whether the company will continue with the gold loan business if it gets a banking licence, he said there is no question of shutting that down as there is no regulatory requirement to shut down the existing business.

 

About meeting the funds requirement for the banking foray, he said arranging Rs.5000.000 Millions, which is the RBI prescribed net-worth for bank holding company, will not be difficult.

 

Muthoot Finance and 25 other companies, including Tatas, Reliance, Birla and India Post, have applied for bank license.

 

Last month the company got an in-principle go-ahead from the RBI to launch white-label ATMs and it plans to set up at least 9,000 money vending machines over the next three years.
