InvestmentRationale
9 Stronggrowthingoldloanbusiness
India is one of the largest markets for gold and as of fiscal 2010, India
accountedforapproximately10%ofthetotalworldgoldstockwithanannual
demand of approximately 700 tones (Source: IMaCS Industry Report (2010
Update)).
Overall,marketshareofNBFCsengagedingoldfinancebusinesshasincreased
from 23.6% in FY09 to 32% in FY10. Even though the gold loan portfolio of
banks has grown over the years, it had been largely driven by bilateral
assignments with NBFCs to meet their direct priority sector lending targets
(benefit no longer available post new RBI regulation). Yet banks have lost
marketsharewithNBFCsgrowingat~2xtheindustrygrowth.Webelievethat
MFL being the largest player in the industry will benefit from these growth
opportunities.

StableNIMsandMargins
The company has maintained a stable NIM of between 1012% over last few
years.Evenduringthetimeofrisinginterestratesthecompanyhasmanagedto
maintainahealthyNIMataround10.5%.ThisisbecauseMFLhasbeenableto
passonthehigherborrowingcoststothecustomers.
RBI has asked banks not to classify loans to nonbanking finance companies
(NBFCs) onlending against gold jewellery as priority sector. This move will
increase the cost of borrowing of NBFC from Banks from 7% to around 9.5%.
However Management is confident of maintaining its NIM above 10% by

MFL provides loans with gold jewellery as collateral by the customer. A sharp
downward movement in the price of gold could result in a fall in collateral
values. In such a case customers pay default in repaying the loans which may
adverselyimpactthefinancialperformanceofthecompany.
