INDUSTRY STRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENTS

The NBFC business segment of the Company is dominated by several very large companies. The smaller companies have very limited scope of business. Our Company, also being a small NBFC, has very limited scope of business.

BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES AND THREATS

For a NBFC of our size, there are not many business opportunities. Unless we acquire size, the future does not look promising.

OUTLOOK

The growth outlook for Non-Banking Financial Companies (NBFCs) to 17-19 per cent for 2022-23 from 19-22 per cent due to weak retail credit off-take post demonetization. NBFCs business has also been affected by the moderation in disbursements with limited cash availability, especially microfinance and gold-backed lending. The report said the extent of recovery in the borrower businesses and income levels and their ability to contribute margins for asset purchase and business funding.

The credit growth had dipped, post demonetisation, and remained subdued because of the uncertainties around the impact of GST implementation, the report said.

The key target borrower segments of NBFCs self-employed borrowers and small businesses were impacted, as a sizeable share of their business was based on cash transactions.
