2. FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

The years 2020 to 22 has been a challenging year due to pandemic all over the world. The collection and disbursements were badly hit across the industry. However you company has been having a positive ALM, so there has not been any issue with the repayments. In fact the company has prepaid the high cost debts during the year. The company has now been started Capital Digital Loans where the repayment is taken from the customers digitally. The performance of the capital digital loans have been remarkable.

The income of the company has decreased from Rs. 10598.28 Lakhs to Rs. 8691.42 Lakhs mainly due to drop in portfolio. The interest expenses have come down to Rs. 2162.03 Lakhs from Rs. 3185.14 Lakhs during the year mainly due to repayments of high cost debts. Your company has reported a loss of Rs 4564.14 Lakhs due to higher write off of portfolio sourced before 2019.

The Company has deicide to write off its loan portfolio amounting to Rs. 8,288.31 lakhs (against which the Company had provision for impairment of Rs. 3,863.47 lakhs) during the year which is distinguished by joint liability, long tenure, and high ticket size loans which were disbursed before 2020. The Company granted moratorium on these loans as per RBI regulations but after moratorium period, the customers continued to default their scheduled repayments.
