MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

ECONOMIC AND INDUSTRIAL REVIEW:

i) Economic Scenario:

The global economy continues to recover amidst ongoing policy support and improving

financial market conditions. The recovery process is led by Emerging Market

Economies, especially those in Asia, as growth remains weak in advanced economies.

The global economy continues to face several changes, such as high levels of

unemployment, which are close to 10% in the US and to the Euro area. Core inflation

levels in major advanced economies are still moderating as the output gap persists and

unemployment remains high. Inflation expectations also remain well anchored.

The fiscal year 2009-10 was a challenging year for the Indian economy. But the Indian

economy performed well during 2009-10, by overcoming the challenges behind it. The

overall growth of GDP as per Advance Estimate of the Central Statistical Organization

(CSO) was 7.2% in 2009-10 representing an increase from 6.7% during 2008-09. The final

real GDP as perceived by RBI may settle between 7.2-7.5%.

ii) Industry Scenario:

During the 17th year of business, the income from operations of your company reduced

to ` 39,54,394/- as compared to the last years’ income of ` 46,79,033/-. Your Company

earned a Profit of ` 1,97,046/- as compared to ` 6,02,231/- during the previous year.

Profit after Tax during the year under review stood at ` 2,94,708/- vis-a-vis ` 3,50,816/-

during the previous year. Your Company’s earnings per Share for the year ended March

31, 2010 was ` 0.10 as against ` 0.12 in the previous year.

iii) Internal Control Systems and Adequacy:

The Company has in place adequate internal control systems and procedures

commensurate with its size and nature of business. The areas of risk are identified and

categorised and the extent and frequency of audit is decided accordingly. The Audit

Committee of the Board regularly reviews internal audit reports. Statutory compliances

across all functions are also regularly checked and reported to the Board. The systems

are designed to ensure that the financial and other records are reliable for preparing

financial statements and other data and for maintaining accountability of accounts.

ARIHANT FINANCE (INDIA) LIMITED 2009 - 2010

iv) Human Resources:

Human resource development continued to be accorded high priority during the year

under review, with emphasis being placed on improving skill, competence and

knowledge through regular training and in-house/external professional development

programmes. The relation between employees and management of your Company

continued to remain very harmonious during the year. The management had periodical

discussions with employees, with such discussions being aimed at providing the best

possible work environment and facilities to them. Your Company has a consultative and

participative management style, which has facilitated achievement of its corporate goals.

The morale of employees continued to remain high during the year under review,

contributing positively to the progress of your Company.

v) Management of Risks:

Your Company is exposed primarily to credit risk, interest rate risk and liquidity risk.

Liquidity risk and Interest Rate Risk: Any change in the interest rates consequent to

change in policies of the Government will result in these risks. This change in interest

will be reflected both in the borrowings of the Company and also on its lending. Any

Company will be prone to these risks due to difference in tenor and interest rate

applicable for loans with outstanding receivables. These risks can be minimised by

matching the tenor to the extent possible.

Credit Risk: Your Company has, over the years, an intimate knowledge and

understanding of the commercial vehicles sector and other areas in which your company

is involved and has accordingly evolved a detailed credit appraisal and monitoring

mechanism. This, coupled with a sharp focus on recoveries has resulted in a healthy

retail portfolio. The credit policy of the Company takes into account the various

developments in the economic scenario and ensures corrective measures, wherever

applicable.

vi) Future Outlook:

Financial services business is to a large extent, dependent on several external factors

such as Government/RBI policies and directions; state of the economy and industrial

climate. All these have a bearing on the business and profitability of financial services

companies. Moreover Non Banking Financial Companies are now subject to

comprehensive regulations similar to the banking system. As the Company is not having

any Fixed Deposits, it is looking at various other avenues to mobilize funds for the

Company. The economic growth is expected to be higher and thereby the business

opportunities for your company are also expected to increase during the year under

report.

All possible efforts are being made including legal action to recover overdue as also to

reduce operating costs. The Directors are hopeful of significant improvement in the

business activities.

vii) Disclaimer:

The information and opinion expressed in this report may contain certain forward-

looking statements, which the management believes are true to the best of its knowledge

at the time of its preparation. The management shall not be liable for any loss, which may

arise as a result of any action taken on the basis of the information contained herein.
