The Indian economy per ormed very well in 2010-11 (FY2011).GDP grew by an estimated 8.6%. All three major sectors grewsubstantially. A ter years o lacklustre per ormance, agriculture didwell, as did manu acturing and this played a major role inincreasing disposable income throughout most parts o rural andup-country India. It is worth mentioning that among the majoreconomies, Indias growth in FY2011 is the second highest in theworld, second only to China.
Despite such growth, there have been signs o disquiet. Duringthe year, India also aced severe in lationary pressures comingacross the entire spectrum o goods oodstu , hydrocarbons,commodities and manu acture. To combat this, the Reserve Bank o India (RBI) has raised interest rates. FY2011 saw seven suchhikes o 25 basis points (bps) each. In May 2011, the rate hike was50 bps, with the RBI clearly indicating that its hitherto so tapproach to in lation is coming to an end. I both supply-sidein lation and interest rate hikes were to continue throughoutFY2012, India may see a slowing down o GDP growth as well asthe rate o growth o consumer demand. It is however, too earlyto hazard a orecast.
Having said this, there is little doubt that FY2011 was a good year
or the retail inance industry. A ter three years o competing in amilieu o single-digit nominal growth that was not much higherthan in lation, business or the industry is estimated to havegrown by over 29% in FY2011. Moreover, with several retailinance players having to make major provisions in 2007-2009 onaccount o non-per orming loan assets, the competitiveenvironment was benign. Those who had been care ul in the pastand had relatively strong balance sheets could leverage up tolend more in FY2011. Going orward, while retail inance shouldgrow at a healthy pace, so too would the orces o competition.
Non-Banking Financial Companies (NBFCs) are increasinglyplaying a critical role in making inancial services accessible towider set o Indias population and, thus, emerging as signi icantplayers in the retail inance space. Going orward, one can expectNBFCs to strengthen their presence in retail inance and grow at ahealthy pace.
With assets under management o over ` 7,571 Crores, BajajFinance Limited (BFL or the Company), earlier Bajaj AutoFinance Limited, is a leading, diversi ied NBFC in the country.A listed entity, the Company delivered superior resultsin FY2011. Given below are the highlights o BFLs per ormanceor the year under review.
