Digital propulsion
for financial inclusion
Technology is fast evolving and reshaping the traditional styles of
lending. Today, digitization is emerging as an effective way of bringing
in efficiencies, automating procedures, smoothening operational
management, broadening reach and other areas of service, by
revolutionizing financial services rapidly.
At IIFL Finance, we have always believed in the potential of digital lending catapulting into a
plethora of opportunities for the common man and businesses. And so, over the years, we have
consistently worked on making this transition smooth by adapting to the changes, way before
they became vital. Our cutting-edge technological integration and focus on small-ticket retail
loans enable us to reach the people who are currently unserved in the financial domain.
As a pioneer in the industry, our digital capabilities extend beyond digital platforms as we focus
on its integration across our entire value chain. Backed by our digital prowess, we are focused
on providing affordable credit to the underserved. This, in turn, could boost the economy, enable
leading better lives by providing better opportunities, secure our customers’ future and offer
solutions that help them meet their aspirations.
IIFL Finance strongly believes in promoting financial inclusion across the country. With the
vision for India’s future growth, expanding financial inclusion is crucial and we are motivated and
prepared to contribute towards it.
We are all set for this Digital Propulsion while continually working on Financial Inclusion.

continue to invest in the physical network of branches
to provide a seamless experience to our customers.
During FY 2021-22, we added 731 new branches across
the country. We firmly believe that local presence boosts
customers’ trust.

The year under review


Your Company earned its highest-ever post-tax profit
of ` 11.9 Billion in FY 2021-22, a jump of 56% over the
preceding year. This performance was front-ended
by strong traction in loan AUM, enhanced reach of
our phygital channels and stable asset quality. Our
performance has been exemplary on all important financial
metrics – return ratios, liquidity, margins, and so on.
Our return on equity of above 20% p.a. is amongst the
best in the industry. FY 2021-22 was also the year when
we updated our environmental, social and governance
or ESG policy as well as our key focus areas to up our
sustainability quotient.
During the year, IIFL Home Finance raised US$ 68 Million
by issue of NCDs to Asian Development Bank (ADB)
for enhancing funding to affordable green housing
across the lower-income groups in India. In June 2022,
Abu Dhabi Investment Authority (ADIA) has signed a
definitive agreement to invest ` 22 Billion for a 20% stake
in IIFL Home Finance, subject to statutory approvals.
These investments reaffirm the faith of marquee, global
organizations in our entity.

Inclusion for Unlocking Opportunities
Our Strategic Focus Areas
At IIFL Finance, we continue to focus on a granular portfolio backed by advanced
technological integration across the value chain. Ensuring healthy asset quality and
surplus liquidity across all buckets remain among our key priorities.
In a financial system like India’s, where NBFCs play an important role as financial intermediaries, growth in credit supply
is vital for promoting financial inclusion in the real economy. According to the RBI, the annual Financial Inclusion Index
for March 2021 stood at 53.9, with 11.7% of individuals still without access to a bank account. While the Prime Minister’s
Jan Dhan Yojana (PMJDY) and the Reserve Bank of India’s outreach efforts to introduce banking to the underserved have
brought a huge number of individuals into the banking system, data shows that more than 85% of bank accounts are still
either dormant or have non-active users. Hence, we believe that the emphasis must now shift from creating bank accounts
to promoting more meaningful financial products, with credit being a significant focus. This unlocks the potential for an
NBFC to service the underserved low-ticket market in India.

Growing our ‘Phygital’ network


At IIFL Finance, we focus on expanding our physical
reach and enhancing our digital capabilities to unlock
future growth opportunities. The overall synergy of

of growing cost constraints, wherein swift response is vital, financial institutions have
enhanced their technical processes to support digitization across the value chain.

models based on process automation and an attempt to lessen dependency on human
procedures. This promotes more inclusivity, higher credit quality, cost-effectiveness, and
faster response time.
We at IIFL Finance are leveraging our digital platform to suit our customers’ ever-changing demands. From customer
onboarding, credit underwriting to loan disbursement and collection, we deliver a completely paperless experience through

Brief Description of Key Projects:


i. Sakhiyon ki Baadi - Girl Child illiteracy eradication program:

It is a matter of great concern and shame that girls in large number continue to be out of school and remain illiterate.
This problem is particularly severe in the northern State of Rajasthan, we have vowed to change this in the next few
years through starting community schools, which are multi grade multi-level schools and set in the villages, making
it accessible for girls to get educated. Sakhiyon ki Baadi learning centres are teaching a predefined syllabus which
is in alignment with the topics prescribed in the textbooks followed at Government Schools in Rajasthan.
The initiative covertly contributes to conservation of indigenous languages, provides employment to native females
and promotes skill building among the marginalized communities. The initiative is helping to meet 3 of the UN’s
Sustainable Development Goals – Quality Education, Gender Equality and Reduced Inequalities.

ii. Phulwari (Maa Bari):


Partnering with the Tribal Area Development (“TAD”) Department of Rajasthan, we have upgraded the ‘Maa Bari’
learning centres by introducing electricity through installation of Solar panels, facilitated water supply for drinking
and sanitation and Digital Learning Tool (TV with preloaded learning videos), both powered by solar energy. On-
boarding SAMPARK Foundation as an academic partner, a special emphasis is made to improve learning outcome
of students through use of learning kits and regular training to the teachers.

IIFL Foundation launched a scholarship to be awarded to Girls pursuing academic education in 9th grade and
upwards till Graduation.

The project is planned to support education of 1,000 girls in the State of Bihar, West Bengal, Odisha, Karnataka,
Tamil Nadu, Rajasthan and Maharashtra. A set of selected students studying in 9th and 10th Grade will be awarded a

Corporate Overview
scholarship of ` 3,500/- each, while those studying in 11th grade all the way till Graduation shall receive a scholarship
amounting to ` 5,000/- each.

iii. Development at Government Hospital – Udaipur, Rajasthan:

Developing the dormant wards at the Maharana Bhupal Government Hospital, Udaipur (Rajasthan), to setup
Operation Theatres (“OT”), Intensive Care Unit (“ICU”), Outpatient Department (“OPD”), Cabins for Senior Doctors &
Resident Doctors and waiting area for family Members of the patients.

Statutory Reports
The development is carried along with installation of required medical equipment in the OT, OPD and ICU and
furnishing of the wards (Ceiling, Flooring, Electrical Fixtures).

iv. Vaccine Delivery using Drone:

IIFL Foundation partnered with Central and State Government to start Maharashtra’s first COVID-19 vaccine delivery
through drones to reach the inaccessible terrains in Jawhar taluka of Palghar district.

Financial Statements
This drone-based vaccine delivery is one of the country’s first vaccine delivery operations with a
5 kg payload capacity and range covering 25 kms in 9 minutes, which otherwise takes over 70 minutes to cover by
road (due to hilly region & poor road condition).

v. Ambulance:

Donated an Ambulance (Tamil Nadu) to offer free of cost service to marginalized population dwelling in rural
settlements.

vi. Development of Ophthalmic Ward (Rural):

IIFL Foundation helped to setup an Ophthalmic Ward at the Primary Health Centre (“PHC”) at Khamnore (Rural),
Rajasthan. This is the first and only facility of such kind in the Khamnore village, that shall be beneficial to people
residing in the rural hamlets in a radius of 30 kms from PHC. In next phase, IIFL Foundation is planning to setup
Ophthalmic Surgery ward.

vii. SevaKutir – Learning Centers:

A set of community-based learning centre for holistic development of children from marginalized communities.
Children are offered special coaching to excel in academics, given nutritious meals twice a day and engaged in
extra-curricular activities. A mini library with collection of 100 books is setup to improve reading and comprehension
skills. Special sessions are conducted on value education covering themes as – Self Awareness, Responsibility,
Ethics and Morals. The program functions in Khandwa District of Madhya Pradesh.

viii. Development at Government School – Science Laboratory:

To improve infrastructure at Government Schools (Rural) and promote better facilities to students, we are
constructing Science Laboratories, Computer room and Sanitation Facility at Government Girls Senior Secondary
School (up to 12th Grade), GP – Khamnore, Rajasthan. Each year, over 500 girls will be benefited from this facility
and they will be enabled to pursue higher education and subsequently careers in science stream.

ix. Solar Installation at Government Schools:

With this initiative IIFL Foundation intends to provide decentralized energy system to 50 Primary Schools
(Government) of Zilla Parishad at Palghar District (From Vikramgad, Jawahar, Mokhada and Wada), to not only fulfil
their need for electricity, but also helping to use of digital learning systems (Computers & Android Tablets). The
initiative helps to reduce carbon footprint and promotes SDG 7 – Affordable and Clean Energy.

x. Mission Conquer Covid – Oxygen Concentrators:

IIFL Foundation donated oxygen concentrators at Maharashtra to Primary Health Care Centers (“PHCs”) &
Government Hospitals. The machines were handed to the local authorities - District Collector (IAS) and Chief
Medical & Health Officer (“CMHO”) of the respective blocks. The oxygen concentrators were installed at the PHCs &
panchayat offices at village level, to save lives of people that tested positive for COVID-19.

xi. School for Under Privileged:
We have been supporting education of the children from the financially weaker section of the community residing at
Janupada Vaibhav Nagar locality (slum settlement) located at Kandivali (E), Mumbai. Parents of almost 90% of the
enrolled students earn their livelihood through menial occupations and find it difficult to meet financial demands to
offer their children quality education.

xii. COVID-19 Vaccination Drive for individuals with special needs:


As part of its Mission Conquer COVID, IIFL Foundation initiated ‘Kindness on Wheels’ vaccination drive at Mumbai.
This initiative was aimed at vaccinating the specially-abled individuals, who had no means or assistance to visit
the vaccination centre. A safe and sanitized auto rickshaw service was provided at the doorstep of the specially-
abled individual, along with a driver trained to support the individuals with special needs. About 1,000 individuals
benefited from this initiative.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS
INDIAN ECONOMY OVERVIEW
‘India to remain the fastest growing major economy in the world during 2021-24’ – as per the projections by the World Bank
and the International Monetary Fund.
The FY 2021-22 has largely been a year of recovery from the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, which had been a drag in
the previous two fiscals. The Indian economy entered a technical recession in the previous fiscal year as a result of the
Covid-19-induced slowdown. The policies of the Center supported the country’s much-needed revival. During the initial waves
of the Covid-19 pandemic, what started with reducing interest rates and stimulus measures gave a much-needed cushion to
stabilize the economy. Furthermore, the development of various vaccines assisted not just in raising public morale but also in
laying the groundwork for a reviving economy. With around 2 Billion inoculations successfully completed in India against the
Covid-19 virus and low Covid-19 positive rates, the Indian economy is set to recuperate to its pre-pandemic levels.
India’s GDP grew by 9.2% in FY 2021-22, supported by widespread vaccine coverage, gains from supply-side reforms,
regulatory easing, robust export growth, and the availability of fiscal support to increase capital spending. (Source: Ministry of
Health and Family Welfare, Economic Survey of India FY 2021-22)

6.1 Hedging activities and derivatives


The Company is exposed to certain risks relating to its ongoing business operations. The primary risks managed using
derivative instruments are interest rate and currency risk.

6.1.1 Derivatives designated as hedging instruments


The foreign currency and interest rate risk on borrowings have been actively hedged through a combination of forward
contracts and interest rate swaps.

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk arising from its foreign currency borrowings. Interest on the borrowing is payable
at a floating rate linked to the Benchmark plus Margin. The Company has hedged the interest rate risk arising from the debt
with a ‘receive floating pay fixed’ interest rate swap.

The Company uses Cross Currency Swap Contracts and Forward Exchange Contracts to hedge its risks associated with
interest rate and currency risk arising from the foreign currency loans. The Company designates such contracts in a cash
flow hedging relationship by applying the hedge accounting principles as per IND AS standards. These contracts are stated
at fair value of the spot element of the forward exchange contracts at each reporting date. Changes in the fair value of
these contracts that are designated as effective hedge of future cash flows are recognised directly in the “Cash Flow Hedge
Reserve” under Other Comprehensive Income and the ineffective portion is recognised immediately in the Statement of Profit
and Loss. Hedge accounting is discontinued when the hedged instrument expires or is sold, terminated, or exercised, or no
longer qualifies for hedge accounting.

Corporate Overview
AS AT AND FOR THE YEAR ENDED MARCH 31, 2022 (Contd.)

There is an economic relationship between the hedged item and the hedging instrument as the terms of the Forward contracts/
Interest Rate Swaps match that of the foreign currency borrowings (notional amount, interest payment dates, principal
repayment date, etc.). The Company has established a hedge ratio of 1:1 for the hedging relationships as the underlying risk
of the Forward contracts/interest rate swaps are identical to the hedged risk components.

Notes:

8.1 
Secured loans are secured by way of equitable mortgage of property, pledge of shares, hypothecation of assets, company
personal guarantees, physical gold, undertaking to create security.
8.2 
Secured loans include loans aggregating to ` 2,003.15 Million (P.Y ` 2,664.76 Million) in respect of which the creation of
security is under process.
8.3 
The Company’s assessment of impairment loss allowance on its loans and other assets is subject to a number of
management judgements and estimates. In relation to COVID-19, judgements and assumptions included the extent and
duration of the pandemic, the impacts of actions of governments and other authorities, and the responses of businesses
and consumers in different industries, along with the associated impact on the global economy. Given the dynamic
nature of pandemic situation, the Company’s impairment loss allowance estimates are inherently uncertain due to
severity and duration of the pandemic and, as a result, actual results may differ from these estimates as on the date of
approval of these Standalone Financial Statements.

The sensitivity analysis presented above may not be representative of the actual change in the projected benefit obligation
as it is unlikely that the change in assumptions would occur in isolation of one another as some of the assumptions may be
correlated.
Furthermore, in presenting the above sensitivity analysis, the present value of the projected benefit obligation has been
calculated using the projected unit credit method at the end of the reporting period, which is the same method as applied in
calculating the projected benefit obligation as recognized in the balance sheet.
There was no change in the methods and assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis from prior years.
Notes
Actuarial gains/losses are recognized in the period of occurrence under Other Comprehensive Income (OCI). All above reported
figures of OCI are gross of taxation.
Salary escalation & attrition rate are in line with the industry practice considering promotion and demand and supply of the
employees.
Maturity analysis of benefit payments is undiscounted cashflows considering future salary, attrition & death in respective year
for members as mentioned above.
Average Expected Future Service represents Estimated Term of Post - Employment Benefit Obligation. Value of asset is
considered as fair value of plan asset for the period of reporting.

Qualitative disclosures
Characteristics of defined benefit plan
The Company has a defined benefit gratuity plan in India (funded). The company’s defined benefit gratuity plan is a final salary
plan for employees, which requires contributions to be made to a separately administered fund.
The fund is managed by a trust which is governed by the Board of Trustees. The Board of Trustees are responsible for the
administration of the plan assets and for the definition of the investment strategy.
Risks associated with defined benefit plan
Gratuity is a defined benefit plan and company is exposed to the following risks:
Interest rate risk: A fall in the discount rate which is linked to the G.Sec. Rate will increase the present value of the liability
requiring higher provision. A fall in the discount rate generally increases the mark to market value of the assets depending on
the duration of asset.
Salary risk: The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the future salaries of members.
As such, an increase in the salary of the members more than assumed level will increase the plan’s liability.
Investment risk: The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated using a discount rate which is determined
by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds. If the return on plan asset is below this
rate, it will create a plan deficit. Currently, for the plan in India, it has a relatively balanced mix of investments in government
securities, and other debt instruments.
Asset liability matching risk: The plan faces the ALM risk as to the matching cash flow. Since the plan is invested in lines of
Rule 103 of Income Tax Rules, 1962, this generally reduces ALM risk.
Mortality risk: Since the benefits under the plan is not payable for life time and payable till retirement age only, plan does not
have any longevity risk.
Characteristics of defined benefit plans
During the year, there were no plan amendments, curtailments and settlements.
A separate trust fund is created to manage the Gratuity plan.

NOTE 38. RISK MANAGEMENT


The Company’s activities expose it to market risk, liquidity risk and credit risk.

Additionally, it is also ensured that appropriate focus is on managing risk proactively by ensuring business operations are in
accordance with laid-down risk. A strong risk management team and an effective credit operations structure ensures that
risks are properly identified and timely addressed, to ensure minimal impact on the Company’s growth and performance
Risk Management Structure

strategies and principles. The Board has constituted the Risk Management Committee (“RMC”) which is responsible for
monitoring the overall risk process within the Company. The RMC is empowered to develop an independent risk strategy

Statutory Reports
managerial and supervisory controls to ensure compliance and highlight inadequate processes and unexpected events. The
Company has well-defined internal control measures in every process.
Independent risk and policy team constitutes second line of defence which is responsible for identification and assessment
of entity-wide risks. Post its identification, it aims to mitigate risks either through portfolio trigger and caps (Credit risk) or
through ongoing risk control and self assessment (Operational risk).
Internal Audit function is the third line of defence that independently reviews activities of the first two lines of defence and
reports to the Audit Committee of the Board.

Financial Statements
Risk Management Practices
The Company has developed the necessary competency to identify early stress signals and has also defined processes,
including corrective and remedial actions as regards people and processes, for mitigation to ensure minimum damage.
A stress testing mechanism is put in place to carry out the event based sensitivity analysis and identify the accounts under
stress due to expected market movement. In event of susceptibility to external triggers, appropriate risk mitigation would be
undertaken and thereby minimize the losses to the company.
It has initiated a detailed portfolio quality review mechanism which enables analysis of portfolio along various behavioural,
demographic and financial parameters. Additionally, through tie-ups with external bureaus, an analysis of collection
performance coupled with continuous credit assessment for various key segments is undertaken. The practices aid in
proactive course correction thereby modifying credit or sourcing mechanisms, if required. Additionally, application scorecard
has been developed enabling the Company to standardize credit underwriting and improve sourcing quality in the long run.
The Company’s policy is to measure and monitor the overall risk-bearing capacity in relation to the aggregate risk exposure
across all risk types and activities. Information pertaining to different type of risks are identified, analyzed and tested on timely
basis. The same is presented to RMC at periodic intervals.
In order to minimize any adverse effects on the financial performance of the Company, derivative financial instruments, such
as cross currency interest rate swaps are entered to hedge certain foreign currency risk exposures and variable interest rate
exposures.
The Company’s central Treasury department identifies, evaluates and hedges financial risks in close co-operation with the
Company’s operating units. The Board provides written principles for overall risk management, as well as policies covering
specific areas, such as foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, use of derivative financial instruments and
non-derivative financial instruments and investment of excess liquidity. The Company’s Treasury is responsible for managing
its assets and liabilities and the overall financial structure. It is also primarily responsible for the funding and liquidity risks of
the Company.
Note: 38A.1. Credit Risk
Credit risk refers to risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Company.
Credit risk arises primarily from financial assets such as loans, trade receivables, investments, derivative financial instruments,
and other receivables.

Financial Assets Measured Using Simplified Approach
The Company follows ‘simplified approach’ for recognition of impairment loss allowance on cash and cash equivalents, bank
balances, trade receivables, other receivables and other financial assets. The application of simplified approach does not
require the Company to track changes in credit risk. Rather, it recognizes impairment loss allowance based on lifetime ECLs
at each reporting date, right from its initial recognition.

38A.6. Credit Risk Grading of Loans


Credit risk is the risk that the Company will incur a loss because its customers or counterparties fail to discharge their
contractual obligations. The Company manages and controls credit risk by setting limits on the amount of risk it is willing to
accept for individual counterparties.
The Company ensures effective monitoring of credit facilities through a portfolio quality review framework. As per this process,
an asset is reviewed at a frequency determined based on the risk it carries at the review date.
For effective risk management, the company monitors its portfolio,based on product, underlying security and credit risk

Statutory Reports
characteristics.
The credit quality review process aims to allow the Company to assess the potential loss as a result of the risks to which it is
exposed and take corrective actions. An independent risk and policy team reviews adherence to policies and processes on a
periodic basis.
Additionally, the Company evaluates risk based on staging as defined in Ind AS, details of which are mentioned below:

Credit Grading Details

March 31, 2021 132,925.55 25,291.66 4,080.42 162,297.63

38A.7. Concentration of Credit Risk


Concentrations arise when a number of counterparties are engaged in similar business activities, or activities in the same
geographical region, or have similar economic features that would cause their ability to meet contractual obligations to be
similarly affected by changes in economic, political or other conditions.
In order to avoid excessive concentrations of risk, the Company’s policies and procedures include specific guidelines to focus
on spreading its lending portfolio across various products/states/customer base with a cap on maximum limit of exposure
for an individual/Group. Accordingly, the Company does not have concentration risk.
38B Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk refers to the risk that the Company may not be able to meet its short-term financial obligations. The Company
manages liquidity risk by maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities and by having access to funding through an
adequate amount of credit lines. Further, the Company has well defined Asset Liability Management (ALM) framework with
an appropriate organizational structure to regularly monitor and manage maturity profiles of financial assets and financial
liabilities including debt financing plans, cash and cash equivalent instruments to ensure liquidity. The Company seeks to
maintain flexibility in funding mix by way of sourcing the funds through money markets, debt markets and banks to meet its
business and liquidity requirements.

38E.3. Valuation Methodologies Of Financial Instruments Not Measured At Fair Value


Below are the methodologies and assumptions used to determine fair values for the above financial instruments which
are not recorded and measured at fair value in the Company’s financial statements. These fair values were calculated for
disclosure purposes only.
Short-Term Financial Assets And Liabilities
For financial assets and financial liabilities that have a short-term nature, the carrying amounts, which are net of impairment,
are a reasonable approximation of their fair value. Such instruments include: cash and bank balances, Trade receivables,
other receivables, balances other than cash and cash equivalents,other financial assets and other financial liabilities and
trade payables.
Loans, Debts, Borrowings And Subordinated Debts
The fair values of these instruments are estimated by determining the price of the instrument taking into consideration the
origination date, maturity date, coupon rate, actual or approximation of frequency of interest payments and incorporating the
actual or estimated/proxy yields of identitical or similar instruments through the discounting factor. For instruments, having
contractual residual maturity or original maturity less than one year, the carrying value has been considered as fair value. Fair
values of Loans and advances are presented net of provisions for impairment.

6.1 Hedging activities and derivatives


The Group is exposed to certain risks relating to its ongoing business operations. The primary risks managed using derivative
instruments are interest rate and currency risk.

6.1.1 Derivatives designated as hedging instruments


The foreign currency and interest rate risk on borrowings have been actively hedged through a combination of forward
contracts and cross currency interest rate swaps.
The Group is exposed to interest rate risk arising from its foreign currency borrowings. Interest on the borrowing is payable at
a floating rate linked to Benchmark Plus Margin. The Group economically hedged the interest rate risk arising from the debt
with a ‘receive floating pay fixed’ cross currency interest rate swap.
The Group uses Cross Currency Interest Rate Swaps (IRS) Contracts (Floating to Fixed) and Forward Exchange Contracts to
hedge its risks associated with interest rate and currency fluctuations relating interest rate and currency risk arising from foreign
currency loans / external commercial borrowings. The Group designates such contracts in a cash flow hedging relationship by
applying the hedge accounting principles as per IND AS standards. These contracts are stated at fair value of the Spot element

and effective as hedges of future cash flows are recognised directly in “Cash Flow Hedge Reserve” under Other Equity and the

hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated, or exercised, or no longer qualifies for hedge accounting.

Cross Currency Interest Rate Swaps match that of the foreign currency borrowings (notional amount, interest payment dates,

Notes:

8.1 
Secured loans are secured by way of equitable mortgage of property, pledge of shares, hypothecation of assets, company
personal guarantees, physical gold, undertaking to create security. Loans secured by Government Guarantee are credit
facilities provided under the Emergency Credit Line Guarantee Scheme backed by an unconditional and irrevocable
guarantee provided by Government of India.
8.2  Secured loans include loans aggregating to ` 2,009.43 million (P.Y ` 2,677.98 million) in respect of which the creation of
security is under process.
8.3  The Group assessment of impairment loss allowance on its loans and other assets is subject to a number of management
judgments and estimates. In relation to COVID-19, judgments and assumptions included the extent and duration of
the pandemic, the impacts of actions of governments and other authorities, and the responses of businesses and
consumers in different industries, along with the associated impact on the global economy. Given the dynamic nature
of pandemic situation, the Group’s impairment loss allowance estimates are inherently uncertain due to severity and
duration of the pandemic and, as a result, actual results may differ from these estimates as on the date of approval of
these Consolidated Financial Statements.
8.4  The Group has complied with the RBI circular dated November 12, 2021 - “Prudential norms on Income Recognition, Asset
Classification and Provisioning pertaining to Advances - Clarifications’. On February 15, 2022, RBI allowed deferment till
September 30, 2022 of Para 10 of this circular pertaining to upgrade of non performing accounts. However, the Group
has not opted for this deferment.

Total 175.51 139.46
(i) Assets held for sale is towards a Group’s owned property which it intends to sell in the near future.

(ii) The Group follows various collection mechanisms for recovery of dues from the borrowers, which involves initiating
SARFAESI, actual/physical repossession of assets after eviction in lieu of the loan outstanding and subsequent sale of
repossessed assets via auction process in case of default by the borrowers. The Company’s endeavour is to sell the
re-possessed assets, in a public auction and realise the sale proceeds to recover the Loan amount outstanding at the
earliest. The Customer has all opportunity to repay the Loan amount before finalization of sale of the property and take
back the possession. Since borrowers may settle the loans and in such cases, the property is handed back to them(in
case the property is not yet sold in auction), the Company’s management is of the view that acquiring such properties
does not change the nature of the assets and that such re-possessed assets continue to be classified as financial
assets. Therefore, such re-possessed properties are not classified as Assets Held for Sale as per IND AS 105. Expert
Advisory Committee of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India has been approached by the Company for an
opinion in the classification of such repossessed assets as “Non- Current Assets Held For Sale”, which is awaited.

The sensitivity analysis have been determined based on reasonably possible changes of the respective assumptions occurring
at the end of the reporting period, while holding all other assumptions constant.
The sensitivity analysis presented above may not be representative of the actual change in the projected benefit obligation
as it is unlikely that the change in assumptions would occur in isolation of one another as some of the assumptions may be
correlated.
Furthermore, in presenting the above sensitivity analysis, the present value of the projected benefit obligation has been
calculated using the projected unit credit method at the end of the reporting period, which is the same method as applied in
calculating the projected benefit obligation as recognised in the balance sheet.
There was no change in the methods and assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis from prior years.

reported figures of OCI are gross of taxation.
Salary escalation & attrition rate are in line with the industry practice considering promotion and demand and supply of the
employees.

Value of asset is considered as fair value of plan asset for the period of reporting.
Qualitative disclosures
Characteristics of defined benefit plan
The Company has a defined benefit gratuity plan in India (funded). The company’s defined benefit gratuity plan is a final salary
plan for employees, which requires contributions to be made to a separately administered fund.
The fund is managed by a trust which is governed by the Board of Trustees. The Board of Trustees are responsible for the
administration of the plan assets and for the definition of the investment strategy.
Risks associated with defined benefit plan
Gratuity is a defined benefit plan and company is exposed to the following risks:
Interest rate risk: A fall in the discount rate which is linked to the G.Sec. Rate will increase the present value of the liability
requiring higher provision. A fall in the discount rate generally increases the mark to market value of the assets depending on
the duration of asset.
Salary risk: The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the future salaries of members.
As such, an increase in the salary of the members more than assumed level will increase the plan’s liability.
Investment risk: The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated using a discount rate which is determined
by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds. If the return on plan asset is below this
rate, it will create a plan deficit. Currently, for the plan in India, it has a relatively balanced mix of investments in government
securities, and other debt instruments.
Asset liability matching risk: The plan faces the ALM risk as to the matching cash flow. Since the plan is invested in lines of
Rule 101 of Income Tax Rules, 1962, this generally reduces ALM risk.
Mortality risk: Since the benefits under the plan is not payable for life time and payable till retirement age only, plan does not
have any longevity risk.
Characteristics of defined benefit plans
During the year, there were no plan amendments, curtailments and settlements.
A separate trust fund is created to manage the Gratuity plan.

Note: The above information is as provided by the Actuary, which has been relied upon by the auditors.

NOTE 37. RISK MANAGEMENT


The Group’s activities expose it to market risk, liquidity risk and credit risk.
Risk management is integral to the Group’s strategy. An enterprise wide risk management framework is in place to govern the
Group’s risk management processes. A strong risk management team and an effective credit operations structure ensures
that risks are properly identified and timely addressed to ensure minimal impact on the Group’s growth and performance.
The Group has developed the necessary competency to identify early stress signals and has also defined processes, including

Statutory Reports
corrective and remedial actions as regards people and processes, for mitigation to ensure minimum damage.
A stress testing mechanism is put in place to carry out the event based sensitivity analysis and identify the accounts under
stress due to expected market movement. The Group’s central treasury department identifies, evaluates and hedges
financial risks in close co- operation with the Group’s operating units. The Board provides written principles for overall risk
management, as well as policies covering specific areas, such as foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, use of
derivative financial instruments and non-derivative financial instruments and investment of excess liquidity. The Group’s
Treasury is responsible for managing its assets and liabilities and the overall financial structure. It is also primarily responsible
for the funding and liquidity risks of the Group.

Financial Statements
Risk management is integral to Group’s strategy. The comprehensive understanding of risk management throughout the
various levels of an organization aids in driving key decisions related to risk-return balance, capital allocation and product
pricing. The Group operates under the guidance of the Board approved risk appetite statement that covers business
composition, guidance around gross non-performing assets and net non-performing assets, leverage, funding and liquidity, etc.
Additionally, it is also ensured that appropriate focus is on managing risk proactively by ensuring business operations are in
accordance with laid-down risk. A strong risk management team and an effective credit operations structure ensures that
risks are properly identified and timely addressed, to ensure minimal impact on the Group’s growth and performance.
Risk Management Structure
The Group has established multi-level risk governance for monitoring & control of product and entity level risks. The Board
of Directors are responsible for the overall risk management approach and for approving the risk management strategies
and principles. The Board has constituted the Risk Management Committee (“RMC”) which is responsible for monitoring the
overall risk process within the Group. The RMC is empowered to develop an independent risk strategy comprising of principles,
frameworks, policies and limits and ensuring its effective implementation. Independent function of Risk management is in
place headed by the Chief Risk Officer (“”CRO””) who reports to the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) with oversight of RMC of
the Board. The Risk department primarily operationalises risk management framework approved by RMC.
The group has a well – defined risk framework constituting various lines of defence – the first line of defence, consisting of
management, is responsible for seamless integration of risk principles across all businesses Additionally, it ensures adequate
managerial and supervisory controls to ensure compliance and highlight inadequate processes and unexpected events. The
Group has well-defined internal control measures in every process. Independent risk and policy team constitutes second line
of defence which is responsible for identification and assessment of entity-wide risks. Post its identification, it aims to mitigate
risks either through portfolio trigger and caps (Credit risk) or through ongoing risk control and self assessment (Operational risk)
Internal Audit function is the third line of defence that independently reviews activities of the first two lines of defence and
reports to the Audit Committee of the Board.
Risk Management Practices
The Group has developed the necessary competency to identify early stress signals and has also defined processes, including
corrective and remedial actions as regards people and processes, for mitigation to ensure minimum damage. A stress testing
mechanism is put in place to carry out the event based sensitivity analysis and identify the accounts under stress due to
expected market movement. In event of susceptibility to external triggers, appropriate risk mitigation would be undertaken
and thereby minimize the losses to the Group.
It has initiated a detailed portfolio quality review mechanism which enables analysis of portfolio along various behavioural,
demographic and financial parameters. Additionally, through tie-ups with external bureaus, an analysis of collection
performance coupled with continuous credit assessment for various key segments is undertaken. The practices aid in
proactive course correction thereby modifying credit or sourcing mechanisms, if required. Additionally, application scorecard
has been developed enabling the Group to standardize credit underwriting & improve sourcing quality in the long run.
The Group’s policy is to measure and monitor the overall risk-bearing capacity in relation to the aggregate risk exposure
across all risk types and activities. Information pertaining to different type of risks are identified, analysed and tested on timely
basis. The same is presented to Risk Management Committee at periodic intervals.

Financial Assets measured using simplified approach


The Group follows ‘simplified approach’ for recognition of impairment loss allowance on Cash and Cash Equivalents, Bank
Balances, Trade Receivables, other receivables and Other Financial Assets. The application of simplified approach does not
require the Group to track changes in credit risk. Rather, it recognises impairment loss allowance based on lifetime ECLs at
each reporting date, right from its initial recognition.

37A.2. Collateral held

Statutory Reports
The Group holds collateral and other credit enhancements against certain of its credit exposures. The loans are collateralised
against equitable mortgage of property, pledge of shares, hypothecation of assets, company personal guarantees, physical

different credit transactions.
The Group has established overall credit limits at the level of individual borrowers and counterparties, and groups of connected
counterparties. It manages and controls credit risk by confining the amount of risk it is willing to accept for individual
counterparties, for geographical concentrations, and by closely monitoring such exposures.

The Group has a Credit Risk Policy which is board approved and shared with all credit approving authorities. All customers
will be evaluated on a set of pre-defined parameters as detailed below and accordingly classified into any of the following
categories:

Financial Statements
1. Low Risk
2. Medium Risk
3. High Risk – This category of customers will not be actively sourced by the Group. Any customer, identified as High Risk,
can be funded by the Group basis exceptional comfort and availability of justifying mitigates. The extent and nature of due
diligence will be the highest for this category.

The assessment of a customer being classified into high, medium or low is based on various parameters at the time of
on-boarding which are captured in the Credit Approval Memorandum by the credit manager and validated by the relevant
approving authority. The parameters are as follows:

1.       Customer Profile


2.       Financial health
3.       Business vintage
4.       Credit history
5.       Industry feedback
6.       Other qualitative/ quantitative factors as mentioned in the policy
Every customer once being stamped into a risk category on a periodic basis would further be subjected to change of his risk
profile depending on the repayment history and DPDs through an independent credit quality review process. This process
aims to allow the Group to assess the potential loss as a result of the risks to which it is exposed and take corrective actions.

37A.7. Concentration of Credit Risk
Concentrations arise when a number of counterparties are engaged in similar business activities, or activities in the same
geographical region, or have similar economic features that would cause their ability to meet contractual obligations to be
similarly affected by changes in economic, political or other conditions.

In order to avoid excessive concentrations of risk, the Group’s policies and procedures include specific guidelines to focus on
spreading its lending portfolio across various products/states/customer base with a cap on maximum limit of exposure for
an individual/Group. Accordingly, the Group does not have concentration risk.

37B Liquidity Risk


Liquidity risk refers to the risk that the Group may not be able to meet its short-term financial obligations. The Group manages
liquidity risk by maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities and by having access to funding through an adequate

amount of credit lines. Further, the Group has well defined Asset Liability Management (ALM) framework with an appropriate
organizational structure to regularly monitor and manage maturity profiles of financial assets and financial liabilities including
debt financing plans, cash and cash equivalent instruments to ensure liquidity. The Group seeks to maintain flexibility in
funding mix by way of sourcing the funds through money markets, debt markets and banks to meet its business and liquidity
requirements.

37C Market Risk


Market Risk is the risk that the value of on and off-balance sheet positions of a financial institution will be adversely affected
by movements in market rates or prices such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates, equity prices, credit spreads and/or
commodity prices resulting in a loss to earnings and capital.

Financial Statements
Financial institutions may be exposed to Market Risk in variety of ways. Market risk exposure may be explicit in portfolios of
securities / equities and i struments that are actively traded. Conversely it may be implicit such as interest rate risk due to
mismatch of loans and deposits. Besides, market risk may also arise from activities categorized as off-balance sheet item.
Therefore market risk is potential for loss resulting from adverse movement in market risk factors such as interest rates, forex
rates, equity and commodity prices.
The Group’s exposure to market risk is primarily on account of interest rate risk and Foreign exchange risk.

37C.2. Exposure to currency risks


Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of an exposure will fluctuate because of changes in
foreign currency rates. The Group’s exposure to the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates relates primary to the foreign
currency borrowings taken from banks and External Commercial Borrowings (ECB).
The Group follows a conservative policy of hedging its foreign currency exposure through Forwards and / or Cross Currency
Interest Rate Swaps in such a manner that it has fixed determinate outflows in its functional currency and as such there would
be no significant impact of movement in foreign currency rates on the Group’s profit before tax (PBT) and equity.

37E.3. Valuation methodologies of financial instruments not measured at fair value


Below are the methodologies and assumptions used to determine fair values for the above financial instruments which are
not recorded and measured at fair value in the Group’s financial statements. These fair values were calculated for disclosure
purposes only.

Short-term financial assets and liabilities


For financial assets and financial liabilities that have a short-term nature, the carrying amounts, which are net of impairment,
are a reasonable approximation of their fair value. Such instruments include: cash and bank balances, Trade receivables, other
receivables, balances other than cash and cash equivalents and trade payables.

Loans, Debts, Borrowings and Subordinated Debts


The fair values of these instruments are estimated by determining the price of the instrument taking into consideration the
origination date, maturity date, coupon rate, actual or approximation of frequency of interest payments and incorporating the
actual or estimated/proxy yields of identitical or similar instruments through the discounting factor. For instruments, having
contractual residual maturity less than one year, the carrying value has been considered as fair value. Loans and advances
are presented net of provisions for impairment.

valuation.

Volatility: The daily volatility of the stock prices on BSE, over a period prior to the date of grant, corresponding with the
expected life of the Options has been considered to calculate the fair value.

Risk-free rate of return: The risk-free rate being considered for the calculation is the India Government Bond Generic Bid Yield
with a maturity about equal to the expected life of the options.

Exercise Price: Price of each specific grant has been considered.

Time to Maturity: Time to Maturity / Expected Life of Options is the period for which the Company expects the Options to
be live. The minimum life of a stock option is the minimum period before which the Options cannot be exercised and the
maximum life is the period after which the Options cannot be exercised.

Expected dividend yield: Expected dividend yield has been calculated as an average of dividend yields for the three financial
years preceding the date of the grant. The dividend yield for the year is derived by dividing the dividend per share by the
average price per share of the respective period.

NOTE 45. SEGMENT REPORTING


The Group’s primary business segments are reflected based on the principal business carried out, i.e. financing. All other
activities of the Group revolve around the main business. The risk and returns of the business of the Group is not associated
with geographical segmentation, hence there is no secondary segment reporting based on geographical segment. As such,
there are no separate reportable segments as per the Indian Accounting Standard 108 on ‘Segment Reporting’.

NOTE 46. SHARED SERVICES


The Group operates from and uses the premises, infrastructure and other facilities and services as provided to it by its
group companies, which are termed as ‘Shared Services’. Hitherto, such shared services consisting of administrative and
other revenue expenses paid for by the Group were identified and recovered/recoverable from them based on reasonable
management estimates, which are constantly refined in the light of additional knowledge gained relevant to such estimation.
These expenses are recovered on an actual basis and the estimates are used only where actual were difficult to determine.
NOTE 47. Previous year’s figures are regrouped, reclassified and rearranged wherever considered necessary to confirm to
current year’s presentation.
