6.0    Management Discussion and Analysis

. Industry Structure and Developments *

The global economic expansion steadily continued in 2024, although
growth was uneven amidst geopolitical tensions, geo-economic
fragmentation, heightened trade tensions and elevated public debt.
According to the International Monetary Fund, global growth at 3.3% in
2024 (3.5% a year ago) was below the historical average (2000-19) of 3.7%.

Amidst challenging global economic environment, the Indian economy
exhibited resilience during 2024-25, supported by robust macroeconomic
fundamentals and proactive policy measures. Though the real gross

*Source: Excerpts from the RBI Annual Report 2024-25 and RBI
Financial Stability Report June 2025.

domestic product growth moderated to 6.5% in 2024-25, India remained
the fastest growing major economy. Economic activity was supported
by an improvement in consumption demand and net exports on the
expenditure side, and buoyant services sector and recovery in agricultural
production on the supply side.

Growth in Gross Value Added (GVA) in the agriculture and allied sectors
in 2024-25 stood at 4.6% as compared with 2.7% a year ago, driven by
record food grains production aided by adequate reservoir levels and
favorable weather conditions. Growth in industrial sector moderated to
4.3% in 2024-25, primarily due to deceleration in manufacturing GVA.
The Production Linked Incentive (PLI) schemes helped to steer growth
across several key manufacturing industries. As of November 2024,
investment under PLI scheme reached 57% of the aggregate committed
target under the schemes. The services sector, with a share of 64.1% in
GVA, remained the mainstay of aggregate supply with a growth of 7.5%
in 2024-25.

As per June 2025 Financial Stability Report of the Reserve Bank of
India, the economy is growing at a healthy pace, with the financial
system meeting the financing needs of all sectors of the real economy.
The resilience of the banking system has been pivotal to the strength
of the Indian Financial System. Scheduled Commercial Banks (SCBs)
continued to record improvement in their asset quality, with the GNPA
ratio and NNPA ratio declining to multi-decadal lows of 2.3% and 0.5%,
respectively. The half-yearly slippage ratio, measuring new accretions to
NPAs as a share of standard advances at the beginning of the half-year,
remained stable at 0.7%. As of March 2025, the capital to risk weighted
assets ratio of SCBs increased to a record high of 17.3%. The profitability
of SCBs remained strong in 2024-25, with profit after tax increasing by
16.9% (y-o-y).

On fiscal front, the Central Government continued with its efforts
towards fiscal consolidation, supported by buoyant tax revenues, while
maintaining the thrust on expenditure quality. A modest current account
deficit and adequate forex reserves provided resilience to the external
sector even as capital flows exhibited volatility.

Non-Banking Financial Companies (NBFCs)

As per RBI’s Annual Report 2024-25, aggregate credit extended by
NBFCs expanded in double digits as at end December 2024 although
growth in unsecured lending moderated. Profitability indicators and
NPA ratios continued to improve further during this period, while capital
adequacy ratio remained robust.

In terms of the Financial Stability Report brought out by the Reserve
Bank of India in June 2025, the credit growth of NBFCs (Upper and
Middle Layers) rose to 20.7% (y-o-y) in March 2025 from 16.0% in
September 2024. Considering activity based classification, credit growth

for the second largest category of NBFCs (in terms of outstanding loans),
viz., NBFC-IFCs has risen, vis-a-vis March 2024. NBFC-MFI’s portfolio
contracted in H2:2024-25 as lenders exercised prudence in response to
the stress in the portfolio.

Delinquency level in both NBFC-UL and NBFC-ML improved. GNPA
ratio of Government-owned NBFCs (58.7% share in advances by NBFC-
ML) improved to 1.4% while that of privately owned NBFCs of NBFC-
ML remained at similar level (5.2%) as in September 2024. The system
level CRAR of NBFCs was healthy at 25.8% in March 2025. NBFC-UL
were consistently maintaining an elevated NIM at around 8%, as against
around 4% by NBFC-ML. Consequently, profitability of NBFC-UL was
much higher than that of NBFC-ML in terms of ROA and ROE. On the
liquidity front, NBFC-UL were more vulnerable, given that they had a
higher proportion of short-term liabilities to total assets in comparison
with NBFC-ML. The share of long-term assets in total assets of NBFC-
UL stood at 55.0% as against nearly two-thirds for NBFC-ML.

Opportunities & Threats

To make India self-sufficient, minimize import dependence, create
global industrial champions within India and to ‘Make in India for the
world’, the Government of India has launched several Production Linked
Incentive (PLI) schemes. There has also been focus on self-sufficiency
in healthcare for which the Government of India launched Bulk Drugs
and Medical Device Parks. At present, IFCI is the Project Management
Advisor (PMA) for 10 out of the 14 PLI schemes.

Your Company’s endeavor to become a preferred partner (in the capacity
of Project Monitoring / Nodal Agency) for the PLI Schemes and other
schemes of the Government of India has provided not only an additional
revenue stream but also lot of visibility.

PLI Schemes are the cornerstone of the Government of India’s push for
achieving an Aatma Nirbhar Bharat. The objective is to make domestic
manufacturing globally competitive and to create global champions
in manufacturing. The strategy behind the PLI schemes is to offer
companies incentives on incremental sales from products manufactured
in India, over the base year. They have been specifically designed to
boost domestic manufacturing in sunrise and strategic sectors, curb
cheaper imports and reduce import bills, improve cost competitiveness
of domestically manufactured goods, and enhance domestic capacity and
exports.

As part of Your Company’s strategy to diversify into advisory services,
Your Company has continued to bag schemes of the Government of
India during FY 2024-25 which included Electric Mobility Promotion
Scheme-2024 (EMPS), Scheme to Promote Manufacturing of Electric

Passenger Cars (SMEC), PM E-Drive, IT hardware 2.0.

4. Segment-Wise or Product-Wise Performance

Your Company’s main business is to provide financial assistance and it
operates under single segment reporting framework.

As per RBI’s June 2025 Financial Stability Report (FSR), the near-term
global financial stability risks have risen significantly, driven by heightened
geopolitical tensions and economic and trade policy uncertainties. Shifting
US trade policies and lack of clarity surrounding its economic policies
triggered a spike in volatility and sharp price declines across a range of
markets. Consequently, financial conditions have tightened, and growth
prospects have weakened. Though markets have recovered from the early-
April lows due to sharp tariff hikes, considerable uncertainty persists about
the evolution of trade patterns and economic outlook. Moreover, despite the
recent market turmoil, asset valuations in several markets stay high relative
to fundamentals and risks remain concentrated with exposures to a few large
technology firms. Overall, global financial stability risks remain elevated,
as unprecedented trade and policy uncertainties and unpredictability could
potentially interact with the existing vulnerabilities - rising public debt, high
leverage in the non-banking financial intermediaries sector and stretched
asset valuations - to amplify adverse shocks.

Citing escalation in trade tensions and elevated policy uncertainty, the
International Monetary Fund in its April 2025 World Economic Outlook
has revised global growth projection downwards to 2.8% in 2025 and 3.0%
in 2026. Other multilateral agencies have also lowered their global growth
forecasts. The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development
(OECD), in its Economic Outlook released in June 2025, has revised the
global GDP growth forecast for 2025 to 2.9%. Similarly, the World Bank,
in its June 2025 Global Economic Prospects, projected global GDP growth
(using PPP weights) to decelerate from 3.3% in 2024 to 2.9% in 2025. As
per RBI’s Annual Report, 2024-25, the global economy in 2025 is likely
to grow not only below its historical average (2000-19) of 3.7%, but also
below the growth of 3.3% in 2024.

The Indian economy is growing at a healthy pace, supported by strong
macroeconomic fundamentals, it remained the fastest growing major
economy in the world during 2024-25. The outlook for the Indian economy
remains promising in 2025-26, supported by revival in consumption
demand, government’s continued thrust on capex while adhering to the
path of fiscal consolidation, healthy balance sheets of banks and corporates,
easing financial conditions, continuing resilience of the services sector
and strengthening of consumer and business optimism, besides sound
macroeconomic fundamentals.

The prospects for agriculture sector appear favourable in 2025-26 on the back
of expected above normal south-west monsoon and several productivity¬
enhancing government policies. Manufacturing sector is expected to
gain further traction in 2025-26 supported by improvement in domestic
demand, higher capacity utilisation, healthy balance sheets of corporates
and banks, and consumer and business optimism. The government’s focus
on widening the manufacturing base and the policy support through the
ongoing PLI scheme and National Manufacturing Mission is expected to
further strengthen ‘Make in India’ initiative. The construction sector is also
expected to continue its robust performance in 2025-26.

Amidst elevated global economic and trade policy uncertainties, the
Indian economy continues to display resilience, underpinned by strong
macroeconomic fundamentals and robust financial system. Moreover, as
India’s growth is largely dependent on domestic demand, the impact of
external shocks remained limited. The continued momentum in various high
frequency indicators of services sector, robust agricultural production and
above normal southwest monsoon forecasts, and strong goods and services
tax collections underscore the sustained momentum and resilience of the
economy. The headwinds from protracted geopolitical tensions, elevated
uncertainty and trade disruptions, and weather-related uncertainty pose
downside risks to growth. Moreover, deceleration in global growth will
act as a drag on domestic output. The near-term and medium-term outlook
gives greater confidence of a durable alignment of headline inflation with
the target of 4%.

*Source: Excerpts from the RBI Annual Report 2024-25 and RBI Financial

India’s fiscal position and credibility has enhanced significantly in recent
years on account of ongoing fiscal consolidation, improvement in the
quality of expenditure and earmarking of debt-to-GDP as the nominal
anchor for the central government’s fiscal policy. The resilience of the
external sector has been a key contributing factor to India’s macroeconomic
and financial stability. Current account deficit at 0.6% of GDP during 2024¬
25 remains eminently manageable, supported by sustained buoyancy in
services exports and remittances. In the capital account, high gross foreign
direct investment during 2024-25 indicates that India continues to remain
an attractive investment destination. The net capital flows, however, fell
short of CAD during 2024-25, leading to a depletion in foreign exchange
reserves. Notwithstanding the uncertainty surrounding the trade outlook,
India’s external vulnerability indicators remain robust and continue to
show improvement. Foreign exchange reserves at US$ 697.9 billion, as on
June 20, 2025, are sufficient to cover more than 11 months of merchandise
imports on BoP basis; external debt stood at a moderate 19.1% of GDP at
end March 2025; the share of short-term debt on residual maturity basis
stood at 45.4% of foreign exchange reserves at end March 2025; and net
international investment position improved.

Going forward, the easing of supply chain pressures, softening of global
commodity prices and higher agricultural production on the back of a likely
above-normal south-west monsoon augur well for the inflation outlook
in 2025-26. However, global financial market volatility, geopolitical
tensions, trade fragmentation, supply chain disruptions and climate-induced
uncertainties pose downside risks to the growth outlook and upside risks to
the inflation outlook. The Indian economy is poised to sustain its position
as the fastest growing major economy during 2025-26, supported by pickup
in private consumption, healthy balance sheets of banks and corporates,
easing financial conditions and the government’s continued thrust on capital
expenditure.

6.    Risks and Concerns

In order to address risks, Your Company has put in place an Integrated
Risk Management Policy (IRMP) which addresses Credit Risk, Market

of such audits varied from quarterly to yearly depending upon the criticality
and materiality of transaction risks based on the scope approved by the
