Our Strategy to Deliver

At IIFL, our strategy is to emerge as one of the most preferred brands


in the financial services space and deliver sustainable returns to all
stakeholders. We focus on long-term growth by building enduring
relationships with our customers, contributing to community
upliftment, and attracting the best talent in the industry.

The Strengths
WE CHERISH

WE UNDERSTAND INDIA
In the past two decades, IIFL has built a
deeply entrenched network catering to retail
customers in nearly 2,500 business locations
across India. We deliver a broad array of
financial services through our network of
branches, sub-brokers and franchisees, which
are complemented by our call centres, online
and mobile channels. Our reach in 26 states
across India brings us closer to our customers
enabling us to address their needs quickly and
efficiently.
RETAIL FOCUS
At IIFL, we serve more than three million
satisfied customers across various businesses.
Our deep understanding of retail segment
and strong geographical footprint has given
us the flexibility to expand and reach out
to different segments of the society. In our
lending business, through our extensive
network of over 1,000 branches, we cater to
the financing needs of salaried and self6

IIFL Holdings Limited

employed individuals and small businesses.


The average ticket size in our retail home
loan business is less than ` 2.5 million. Our
mobile app, IIFL Markets, works even on a
2G connection and is accessed by 500,000
investors from over 1,500+ locations
across India.
INNOVATION IN A DIGITAL LANDSCAPE
Digital disruption has increased choice
and reduced loyalty among customers. At
IIFL, we use digital and data analytics to
innovate, customise and deliver products to
our customers in most efficient and suitable
manner. IIFL was a pioneer in the retail equity
broking industry with its launch of 5paisa
trading platform, which offered the lowest
brokerage in the industry and freedom from
traditional ways of transacting. On the lending
side, the use of eKYC and access to online
information on customers credit scores,
bank statements, income-tax documents,
spending patterns, social engagements and

so on are resulting in faster turnaround-time


and stronger credit appraisal, monitoring and
recovery of loans.
OWNERSHIP MINDSET
We are committed to bringing the best out
of our people. Our large base of nearly 12,000
employees helps us deliver more to our
customers, shareholders, and wide fraternity
of stakeholders. We invest in sharpening
the capabilities of our employees through
continuous training and encourage a vibrant
culture of entrepreneurship, openness,
learning, and sharing.
DE-RISKED BUSINESS MODEL WITH
MULTIPLE REVENUE STREAMS
Our multiple products and services across
various business segments provide a diversified
revenue pool and cushion against headwinds
in any particular segment. The lending business
itself comprises multiple products covering
almost all forms of secured lending.

CHAIRMANS MESSAGE

We have come this far solely


based on our core values serving
as a moral compass in all our
dealings. Fairness, Integrity and
Transparency - FIT is the driving
force behind all that we do here
at IIFL.

Our teams experience and


expertise, diversified product
offerings, disciplined approach to
capital, and robust risk governance
have enabled us to win the trust of
distinguished global investors.

A global environment,
characterised by tightening
compliance standards, is in fact
our competitive advantage. We are
well placed to reap the benefits of
industry growth, with our presence
in about 2,500 business locations
in India.

DEAR SHAREHOLDERS,
During FY2015-16, your Companys total
income was ` 4,000 crores and profit
after tax crossed ` 500 crores to touch a
new peak. Your Company has delivered
a total shareholders return of over 31%
CAGR since listing in 2005, and has an
uninterrupted track record of rewarding
shareholders. Your Company has steadily
emerged as one of Indias leading financial
services group. Our teams experience and

IIFL Holdings Limited

expertise, diversified product offerings,


disciplined approach to capital, and
robust risk governance have enabled us
to win the trust of distinguished global
investors, millions of customers, and a
wide fraternity of stakeholders.
Your Companys progress has been
underpinned by a simple mantra
Fast, Flexible, Focused. A decade ago,
your Companys annual report theme

was Citius, Altius, Fortius, when we


committed to deliver faster, higher and
stronger performance. However, when
we look ahead, it is clear what brought
us here will not get us there. We are
passing through extraordinary times
when every industry, including financial
services, is digitally disrupted and
reinventing itself. The definition of
Fast, Flexible, Focused itself has
changed radically.

Chairmans Message | Corporate Overview

HOW FAST IS FAST?


A few years ago, customer KYC and
on-boarding process in seven days would
be considered as fast for most financial
products. Today, even seven minutes
would be slow for many products. India
has quietly leapfrogged ahead of many
developed countries on the digital
highway. Mr. Nandan Nilekanis Aadhaar
project has literally been the foundation
(means Aadhaar in Hindi) of a digital
revolution in the country. The e-KYC along
with e-signer enables instant account
opening. As and when the governments
Digital Locker project goes live, there will
hardly be any need to handle or verify
documents as the DigiLocker facility will
enable digital storage of PAN, passport,
tax/ bank statements and important
certificates.
Small investors can trade anywhere,
anytime with a swipe of a finger on their
mobile. They can access news, expert
views, information, and a real-time updated
portfolio on their hand-held devices.
There are robo advisors, helping investors
with their asset allocation and wealth
management at the lowest cost. Your
Company is investing enormous resources
to keep pace and be in sync with the
new world.

FLEXIBLE FLEXIBILITY
Millennials (those who started working
after 2000) are far more discerning,
impatient and demanding. They account
for the dominant growing force among
consumers and investors. They are
mobile and social media savvy and their
behaviour is quite different from the
earlier generation. For instance, a courtesy
call by your relationship manager, which
would be treated as a gesture of warmth
by the earlier generation, may be taken as
an unwarranted intrusion on privacy by
the new generation. As your Companys
customers straddle both generations ,
our approach calls for flexible flexibility.

One can digitally segregate every product


and service not only for every individual
customer, but also for the same customer
at different times and in a different context.
Also, digital and data analytics technology
is advancing rapidly, presenting myriad
opportunities to be flexible and innovative.

FOCUS, NO HOCUS-POCUS!
When one tries to be fast as well as flexible,
it is very easy to lose focus. Your Company
is in the service industry and is steadfastly
focused on the customer. We endeavour
to deliver the best experience and the best
value for money. We never lose sight of
our core objective of optimizing returns
for investors and costs for borrowers. As
every customers risk appetite is different,
investment or borrowing solutions
are different as well. It is our fiduciary
responsibility to suggest financial products
that suit a customers requirements and
risk profile. Your Company has remained
focused on financial services through the
last two decades and intends to continue to
do so in the foreseeable future.

Faith Makes a Difference


My colleagues and I are thankful to you
our shareholders, or rather faith-holders,
for your unflinching faith and confidence
in the Company and its management. As
you are aware, your Company enjoys the
faith of over three million customers and
more than ten thousand employees and
their families. During the year under review,
two of the most renowned global investors
re-asserted their faith in your Companys
management and business model. Fairfax
invested US$ 202 million by secondary
purchase of shares of IIFL Holdings through
an open offer. General Atlantic invested
US$ 134 million in IIFLs Wealth subsidiary.

the exchequer by way of taxes and


duties. Your Company spent close to
` 10 crores in FY2015-16 on social and
community initiatives such as integrated
rural development, promoting education,
financial literacy, healthcare programmes,
empowering women at the grassroots and
creating sustainable livelihoods.

Future priorities
Our agenda for growth is clearly defined:
understand the financial needs of the
empowered customer and address those
requirements with a diversified services
spectrum; leverage synergies across
businesses and deepen integration; have
a contemporary digital strategy that is
scalable and sustainable with the help
of best-in-class technology; and never
compromise on core values namely
fairness, integrity and transparency (FIT).
We believe that the financial services
industry in India is poised for rapid
growth, supported by accelerating
economic prosperity and reforms. A global
environment, characterised by tightening
compliance standards, is in fact our
competitive advantage. We are well placed
to reap the benefits of industry growth,
with our presence in about 2,500 business
locations in India, and operations (duly
registered and licensed) in seven major
global financial centres.
To sum it up, the future is promising. And
we are ready for it fast, flexible and
focused.
Yours sincerely,
Mr. Nirmal Jain
Chairman,
IIFL Holdings Ltd

At the same time, your Company has


unwavering faith in the government as
well as the society in which it operates. The
same is well reciprocated. Your Company

Our Best Days Are Yet To Come


MANAGING DIRECTORS MESSAGE

Every companys greatest


assets are its customers, because
without customers there is no
company.
Michael LeBoeuf

In a business like ours, the impact


of digitalization is much more
pronounced. The customer of the
future wants on-demand products
and anytime-anywhere services,
which are highly personalized with
a plethora of options and an
easy-to-use interface.

During the year, we invested in


best-in-class technologies to drive
productivity and create quality
by ensuring a responsive and
convenient customer experience.

DEAR SHAREHOLDERS,
In my last years message, I had discussed
how we have scaled our businesses to
leadership positions over the past decade.
As we enter the next lap of our journey,
it is pertinent to look back and see how
the entire canvas in the financial services
space is changing dramatically and how a
combination of forces has created a new
generation of well-informed, assertive, and
globally integrated customers.

12

IIFL Holdings Limited

The financial services space in India is


in the midst of a paradigm shift. Indias
economic progress, focus on inclusive
growth, and rapid adoption of mobile
technology have dynamically altered the
delivery of bespoke financial services to
customers. The Government of Indias
Digital India mission has provided the
right impetus for growth. There is an
overriding dynamism, as more policy
initiatives are taking shape and disruptive

innovations are on the anvil. What is


more encouraging is that the customer
is adapting to these changes faster
than perhaps most people would have
envisaged.

SHIFTING BALANCE
The balance of power between the
customer and the manufacturer or the
service provider has changed over the
years and todays digital world empowers

Managing Directors Message | Corporate Overview

customers like never before. In our own


lives, we have seen how customer
behaviour has undergone a sea change.
Most of us who are on the other side
of forty can remember the days when
telephone connection was a prized
possession. If you try to explain to
the generation next that there was
a fixed telephone line, which had a
waiting time, you will find that such a
world does not exist for them. This is
because of the shift in balance of power
from a monopoly supplier to a highly
competitive market.

EXPLOSION OF CHOICES
It is difficult to imagine how people queue
up to grab the next iPhone. Decades ago,
such queues were for matinee releases
starring Amitabh Bachchan. Previously,
at your neighbourhood Irani Caf, your
choice would be limited to tea or coffee,
or special chai at best. Over a period, we
see customers being offered fruit-infused,
therapeutic versions of tea, and decaf,
low-fat, soya, hazelnut flavoured versions
of coffee.
Moreover, customers have become
highly impatient. It is akin to evolution
of cricket. Previously, we enjoyed fiveday test matches. However, with the
advent of one day cricket and T20s in
recent times, test cricket has started
taking a back seat in the pecking order
of audience preference. In the 1990s, if a
team scores 250 runs in a 50 over match,
it was considered a defendable score.
However, batsmen these days hit 250
runs in 20 overs and opponents chase
it down in a canter. This represents the
celerity of change.
Internet and mobile technology are
affecting our lives like never before. The
best example is what is happening in the
virtual marketplace. You have a plethora of
choices and manufacturers are willing to
supply that to you at various price points.

Therefore, you can now choose your


product and price point and get it from
anywhere in the globe.

EVOLVING BUYER
BEHAVIOUR
According to Google consumer
surveys, online reviews affect the
purchasing decision of majority of users.
Most customers trust networks and
communities more than advertisements.
Even without getting an opportunity to
impress the customer, it is possible that
the customer has already rejected you.
Such trends have culminated into changes
in customer behaviour and even brought
about a change in the way feedback is
collected. Previously, people used to fill
feedback forms and customer surveys. But
with time customers are increasingly using
twitter/facebook/blogs to provide instant
feedback.
In a business like ours, the impact of
digitalization is much more pronounced.
The customer of the future wants ondemand products and anytime-anywhere
services, which are highly personalized
with a plethora of options and an easyto-use interface. Hence, at IIFL, we attach
immense importance to the need to
innovate and adopt new technologies
so that the empowered and discerning
customer remains at the centre of our
growth and evolution.

HUMAN TOUCH IS PRECIOUS


Ironically, despite unprecedented
advances in the digital world, the human
touch remains more valuable, as there
is a huge need to touch the customers
heart through empathy, passion, and
creativity. At the end of the day, when
customers are on the internet, they want
to talk to a person who can address their
queries or concerns without hassles.
Thus, we are adopting best-in-class
technologies and are focused on fostering
talent. The objective is to bring about

a transformation in terms of products,


processes, and services after getting a
sincere and deep understanding of our
customers needs. We conduct trainings
and internal workshops to align our
employees such that they know how to
handle a customer in the digital era. Our
IIFL Facebook page and Twitter handle
are part of a series of steps we initiated
to collect feedback and take customer
interaction beyond the traditional brickand-mortar channels.

WAY FORWARD
During the year, we invested in best-inclass technologies to drive productivity
and create quality by ensuring a
responsive and convenient customer
experience. We have launched the
IIFL Markets App, which is the most
downloaded and highest rated app
among peers. Customers in our lending
business will reap the significant benefits
that ensue from our Consumer Vehicle and
Gold Loan App.
Robust business fundamentals,
encouraging financial performance, and
sound governance mechanism have
enabled us to emerge as a trusted partner
for our customers.
At IIFL, we will continue to strengthen our
capabilities and innovate in a fast, flexible,
and focused manner, to win and retain the
trust of our customers. The age of digital
disruption is only the beginning; though
we have taken rapid strides, our best days
are yet to come.
Yours truly,
Mr. R. Venkataraman

Integration
At IIFL, we believe integration
is critical while offering a
diversified portfolio of services
and catering to retail, affluent,
and institutional clients. As an
integrated group, we leverage
the combined resources
and expertise of our various
business divisions, to provide
bespoke services to help
clients meet their financial and
growth aspirations.
Over the years, we have evolved from a
brokerage-driven business model to a leading
diversified financial services player.
We have a welldiversified revenue stream; our
NBFC business contributes to two-third of the
bottom line; wealth contributes 25% and the
capital market business contributes the rest.
This de-risks the revenue profile and provides a
cushion against susceptibility of income to volatility
of the equity markets.

3. MACROECONOMIC OVERVIEW
India remains one of the fastest growing economies in the
world. The outlook for global economy is not sanguine with
considerable uncertainties regarding path of monetary policy in
advanced economies, the extent of slowdown in China and the
fallout from the possible exit of UK from the EU otherwise known
as Brexit.
The Indian economy has grown at a respected rate of just over
7% in the last two years despite two back to back droughts.
However, with forecast of a above normal monsoon, GDP growth
rate is likely to improve further in FY17 and is expected to cross
8% over the medium-term. Inflation has fallen from almost 10%
three years back to 5% now and current account deficit too has
fallen to just 1% of GDP. The new government has continued the
path of fiscal consolidation and thus fiscal deficit is likely to fall
to 3.5% of GDP this year. This has brought much needed stability
on the external sector despite challenging global economic
backdrop and allowed the RBI to cut interest rates, which will
help revive investments in the economy.
Governments efforts at kick starting the investment cycle is
showing some signs of improvement in sectors such as roads,
railways and power. A number of indicators from two-wheeler
sales to electricity generation to cement demand suggest that
economic activity is picking up. Low capacity utilisation in many
sectors will however keep industrial capex muted until there is
34

IIFL Holdings Limited

broad based recovery in domestic demand. The Union Budget


struck a fine balance between maintaining fiscal prudence
and stepping up public investments as well as supporting the
under-stress rural economy. The recent passage of key reforms
like Real Estate Development Bill, Insolvency and Bankruptcy
Code, Aadhaar Bill and initiatives for ease of doing business etc
would help in solving certain major implementation hurdles
and orderly developments, thereby increasing efficiency. Make
in India, Skill Development will also aid in creating the much
needed jobs to absorb Indias growing working age population.
4. DIVIDEND ON EQUITY SHARES
During 2015-16, your Company declared and paid an interim
dividend of ` 4.25 per equity share (i.e. 212.5% of face value
of ` 2/- per share) which includes a special dividend of
` 1.25 per share, to commemorate a decade of listing. This led to
an outgo of ` 1,341 million owing to dividend (excluding dividend
distribution tax).The same is considered as final. The total dividend
paid during the financial year 2015-16 was ` 4.25/- per share.

6. IN CASE THE COMPANY HAS FAILED TO SPEND THE TWO


PER CENT OF THE AVERAGE NET PROFIT OF THE LAST
THREE FINANCIAL YEARS OR ANY PART THEREOF, THE
COMPANY SHALL PROVIDE THE REASONS FOR NOT
SPENDING THE AMOUNT IN ITS BOARD REPORT
IIFL has been engaged in several community and social welfare
projects and programmes. Based on evaluation of particular
project/programme and finalisation by its CSR Committee, the
Company has been contributing towards implementation of
such project and programmes.
Accordingly, during the financial year 2015-16, the Company
had successfully deployed 1.92% of its average net profits of
the preceding three years on CSR projects based on the actual
implementation of the projects. The Company is committed to
CSR spend through implementation of various ongoing projects
and new projects. It will enhance the scope of its CSR projects
and will make concerted efforts to deploy the prescribed
amount in the coming years.

District of Maharashtra drought free. Water scarcity in Jawhar


is stark and not only is access to drinking water a challenge
and women have to travel large distances to fetch water
but lack of water throughout the year has also resulted in
large scale migration of farmers after the paddy season.
In 2015-16, IIFL constructed two big check dams and over
50 other rain water harvesting structures. The impact was
immediate and direct as not only the ground water table
rose substantially in these areas but importantly over 40
farmers did not have to migrate for the first time in their
life and are growing flowers and vegetables throughout
the year. This is positively affecting the rural local economy
sustainably making the change visible. IIFL has vowed to
make Jawhar drought free and will take big steps in this
direction in coming years.

iii. Women Empowerment Programs: IIFL Group believes


that there is no tool for development more effective than
the empowerment of women. Over and above training,
skilling and supporting women to start micro enterprises,
IIFL Group also supported a Womens Development
Centre in Kankroli, Rajsamand District, which is one of
the most backward areas in Rajasthan. Going forward,
IIFL Foundation will be conducting several skill training &
income generation programs for the women, which will not
only help them to break the vicious circle of poverty but
also importantly enhance their status in the community. A
nursing school for underprivileged girls was also supported
in Ponda, Goa. This school would train 250 young girls and
support them with sustainable employment opportunities.
With a starting average salary of ` 78,000/- pa , these girls
and their familys destiny would definitely change for good.

iv. Education & Financial Literacy: Financial Literacy is one


of the flagship programs of IIFL Group and under its FLAME
(Financial Literacy Agenda for Mass Empowerment Initiative)
has been undertaking several programs for people from all
walks of life. In 2015-16 the focus was Financial Literacy for
the rural areas and over 1,50,000 people from the tribal belt
of Maharashtra underwent this program in this financial
year. Over and above, this IIFL Group conducted several
programs in various other states of India.

v. Financial Services Hackathon: IIFL being one of the


leading companies in the financial services space has a
moral obligation of supporting not only financial literacy
programs but importantly start ups that can propel large
scale financial inclusion. IIFL in association with the CIIE
(Centre for Innovation & Incubation) at IIMA hosted a one

Tribal development through holistic long-term
interventions: IIFL Group has adopted 32 Tribal hamlets in
three villages of Walvanda, Shiroshi & Kasatwadi of Jawhar
Taluka in Palghar District under IIFLs flagship program Gram
Vardhan Yojana. This entails working on all social parameters,
which include building check dams and other rainwater
harvesting structures to ensure yearlong supply of water,
agri based livelihoods, income generation skill development
& programs for women, vocational training for tribal boys,
community sanitation units for the hamlets as well as
overhauling the entire health & education infrastructure
in these villages. In the first year of Gram Vardhan Yojana,
due to the different interventions over 30 families instead
of migrating to Mumbai are growing vegetables and fruits
and are able to earn a decent & honorable livelihood. Our
sanitation units are also contributing to creating Open
Defecation Free tribal areas, which is also contributing to the
Swachh Bharat initiative of the Government of India. These
and other programs are contributing to strengthening the
rural economy and thereby starting a virtuous cycle of
transformation, growth & prosperity.

customer facing apps for the broking clients as well as for NBFC
clients. With a number of clients preferring to do transactions on
their own (do-it-yourself ), these apps help the company to create a
highly scalable architecture. IIFL has chosen native android and IOS
technologies (rather than hybrid or web based) thereby providing
clients with best in class experience, especially on transactional
apps. IIFL Markets now has over 500,000 downloads on Android,
IOS, Windows, IPad etc. In addition account-opening process too
has been simplified by integrating AADHAR and digital signatures.
Customers now can open an account within a matter of minutes
and without any physical form printing or physical signatures
required. IIFL group has committed significant investments in
terms of technology, systems and manpower in this initiative and
continuously developing the same.

The Management frequently puts circulars on corporate intranet,


IWIN for the employees educating them on ways and means to
conserve the electricity and other natural resources and ensures strict
compliance of the same.

GLOBAL ECONOMY OVERVIEW
During the year, major economies across geographies remained
largely subdued. Global growth declined from 3.4% in 2014 to 3.1%
in 2015 driven mainly by fall in commodity prices, considerable
tightening in world trade, and choppy financial markets. In the US,
growth remained flat at 2.4% with a modest uptake expected in 2017.

The European Central Bank lowered its projections for inflation


and economic growth, predicting 1.4% growth for the Euro Area in
2016. The deceleration in large emerging market economies such
as China, Russia, and Brazil in 2016 had a rub-on impact on the rest
of the world.

INDIAN ECONOMY OVERVIEW


India remains a bright spot amid the global uncertainty, with its
growth rate outpacing the emerging as well as developed markets.
At 7.6% GDP growth in the financial year ended March 31, 2016
(FY2015-16), India is one of the fastest growing major economies in
the world. During the year, the economy crossed the US$2 trillion mark
and is expected to continue the trajectory in FY2016-17. Furthermore,
inflation, fiscal deficit, and current account balance have exhibited
distinct signs of improvement.Indias trade deficit reduced to a fiveyear low of US$5.1 billion in March 2016, which came on the back of
a sharp 21.6% fall in imports. Trade deficit stood at US$118.5 billion
in FY2015-16, 14% lower than in the previous year. Consumer price
inflation fell to a six-month low of 4.8% in March 2016. In the coming
year, a normal monsoon will further boost growth prospects.

FINANCIAL SERVICES INDUSTRY


Indias diversified financial sector comprises commercial banks,
non-banking financial companies, co-operatives, pension funds,
insurance companies, mutual funds and others. During FY2015-16,
the Government took several measures to strengthen the financial
services sector, which include Jan Dhan campaign for financial
inclusion, licensing of payment banks and small finance banks, the
new bankruptcy law, liberalisation of foreign direct investment and
portfolio investment, universal social security schemes in insurance
and pension, and gold monetisation scheme.
GROWTH DRIVERS FOR FINANCIAL SERVICES INDUSTRY
Strong economic growth and demographic advantage
Indias economic growth is expected to rise above 8% over FY2016-20
from around 7% in FY2012-15, helping expand the financial services
sector. The economic progress will be supported by a large workforce.
According to CRISIL, India is set to become the largest contributor to
the global workforce. Its working age population (15-59 years) is likely
to swell from 749 million in 2010 to 962 million in FY2029-30. A large
productively employed young population will spur consumption
demand and increase in the number of customers in the financial
services space.
Increase in disposable income
The rise in disposable income is resulting in higher standard of living,
boosting demand for personal credit. Credit under the personal
finance segment (excluding housing) rose at 9.3% CAGR during
FY2009-15 to US$93.4 billion by end-2015.
(Source: RBI).

Management Discussion & Analysis | Statutory Reports

Under-penetrated housing finance


Indias mortgage finance market is largely under-penetrated
compared with the rest of the world, providing sufficient opportunity
for housing financiers to step up their housing credit. With the median
age of little over 25 years in India, there is potential for huge demand
from young working-age population.

7.6%

GDP growth in FY2015-16


During FY2015-16, the
Government took several
measures to strengthen the
financial services sector

Rising Rural Income


Disposable household income in rural India is projected to grow
at 3.6% CAGR over the next 15 years. Rising income is expected to
increase the need for financial services in rural areas. The Prime
Ministers Jan Dhan Yojana (JDY) has enabled the opening of nearly
220 million bank accounts in rural India. This will financially empower
the rural population by encouraging savings, easing loan delivery,
and promoting direct cash transfers.
Source: McKinsey estimates, Ministry of agriculture, Techsci Research

KEY INITIATIVES
The Government has announced many initiatives to make financial
services accessible and affordable to the public. Some of them include:
New banking license - Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has been active
in pushing the agenda of financial inclusion across the country. As
a part of this vision, RBI has granted in-principle banking licenses
to two players, which have become operational in FY2015-16. This
is in line with RBIs directive to set up universal and niche banks
in the country, catering to diverse sectors of the economy, with
special focus on financial inclusion and micro-credit.
Small and payments banks - The primary objective of setting up
small and payments banks is to extend financial inclusion across
the country. The small finance banks are expected to offer credit
to the societys under-banked sections through high technology
and low cost operations. Payments banks are allowed to leverage
other players network, besides their own to help in providing a large
number of access points, particularly in remote areas.
Jan Dhan Yojana - The Honourable Prime Minister unveiled the Jan
Dhan Yojana, one of the biggest financial inclusion programmes
in the world. The governments long-term mission is to have a fullfledged brick and mortar network for all villages with population
above 2,000. Moreover, each bank must have at least one fixedpoint banking outlet for every 1,000 to 1,500 households.
Benefits to large NBFCs - NBFCs with asset size of over ` 5,000
million would be eligible as a financial institution under SARFAESI
Act, which would significantly enable their ability to enforce
collateral towards recovery dues from defaulting borrowers. Also,
from FY2016-17, NBFCs are eligible for deduction to the extent of
5% of their income in respect of provision of bad and doubtful
debts (NPAs) under the Income Tax Act.
FDI norms - FDI will be allowed beyond 18 specified NBFC
activities in the automatic route in other activities, which are
overseen by financial sector regulators.

Affordable housing - The government has taken several
initiatives to encourage development of the housing sector. The
Union Budget FY2016-17 has been able to present 360-degree

initiatives for customers, builders, and lenders to provide major


impetus to the affordable housing segment.
Digital locker - Under the Digital India initiative, the Government
aims to provide a digital locker to Indian residents. It will store
their personal documents to enable easy sharing across agencies.
This will consequently minimise usage of physical documents,
eliminating the incidence of fake documents. A dedicated 10MB
free personal storage space, linked to each residents Aadhaar, is
being provided. Currently, accessible via web portal, this will also
be made available through mobile application.

OPPORTUNITY
Changing consumer behaviour - The young generation is rapidly
adopting technology to interact and transact with the world. The
number of internet users in India has tripled to 485 million in the past
three years (Source: Euromonitor). New technologies such as cloud
and analytics are gaining importance. This would provide a huge
opportunity to nimble and innovative players in the financial sector
to use technology to strengthen their business. Technology can be
used to reach customers in a cost effective manner and enhance
customer experience through faster turnaround time, wider product
offerings and better risk control and pricing.
THREATS

Uncertainty in global markets, owing to a recessionary
environment in advanced economies and increased strain in
China and other emerging markets can result in volatile capital
inflows and currency fluctuations. In India, the slow pace in
implementation of economic reforms and important legislations
can further delay growth.
Any adverse change in the regulatory and policy environment in
which IIFL operates could affect our business and financial condition.
In the financial services industry, security and sanctity of client
data is of utmost importance. A regular and continuous threat for
firms is data theft via malicious malware and email. Technology
has not only increased players, vendors and customers, but has
Annual Report 2015-16

65

Management Discussion & Analysis (contd.)

added multiple threats to the businesses. Cyber-attacks are


getting larger in scale and size, even to the extent of coordinated
attacks from different geographies.
SEGMENT OVERVIEW
NBFCs growing in prominence
Indian NBFCs have been effective in serving the unbanked customers by
spearheading into retail asset-backed lending, lending against securities
and microfinance. Primarily, they offer small business loans, small-ticket
personal loans, financing of two wheelers and cars, farm equipment
financing and loans for purchasing used commercial vehicles/ machinery.

According to ICRA, NBFCs will account for 17.1% of the countrys


total credit by FY2018-19, compared with 13.1% in FY2014-15 and
9.4% in FY2005-06. Majority of the growth is expected to be at the
cost of government-owned banks, whose share is estimated to fall
to an all-time low of 58.6% by FY2018-19 (against 64.5% in FY201415). According to joint report by the Boston Consulting Group (BCG)
and Confederation of Indian Industry (CII), NBFCs share of credit
went up from 10% to 13% between FY2004-05 and FY2014-15. This
growth is likely to surge over the next 5-10 years.

Factors supporting growth of NBFCs include better product lines,


wider and effective reach, quick turnaround time, strong risk
management capabilities and better understanding of customer
segments. In an atmosphere where delivery of financial services
has become increasingly commoditised, customer experience will
play the distinguishing factor for an ideal service provider. The
ability to provide tailor-made financial solutions across multiple
platforms will result in an upsurge of product innovations. Going
ahead, there is need for NBFCs to be integrated in the financial
system with full policy support. This will help meet the financing
needs of growing India.

Wealth Management potential for growth


Wealth management is gaining huge popularity in India as an
increasing number of Indians are joining the millionaire club.
According to theAsia Pacific 2016 Wealth Report, India is ranked4th
among the top five Asia-Pacific countries with about 24-million
number of high net worth individuals (HNWIs). Mumbai and Delhi
have been named among the top Asia Pacific cities for HNIs. Mumbai
is home to 41,200 millionaires and Delhi houses 20,600 HNIs.

Management Discussion & Analysis | Statutory Reports

There is a need to seize this opportunity of growing HNIs population,


primarily driven by strong GDP growth and savings rates. In future,
wealth managers will have to reinforce their asset gathering and
client acquisition competences through differentiated offerings,
tailoring them to specific regions and client segments. The emphasis
will be on more innovative and customised investment strategies as
well as product offerings to make the most of the performance of
existing assets.
Capital Markets on an improving trend
There has been a substantial increase in capital market activity with the
governments pro-reform initiatives. An encouraging response has been
noticed to initial public offerings with strong participation from domestic
as well as institutional investors. The mutual funds industry registered
robust inflows during the year from the retail investor base. The industry
added over 5 million retail folios in FY2015-16, taking the count to 45.4
million with over 75% folios in equity-oriented funds (Source: CRISIL).

Going forward, the capital markets will face headwinds in the form
of global growth slowdown, slow pickup in investment activities,

and corporate earnings growth, which may continue to weigh


down on market sentiment. Nevertheless, equity as an asset class is
significantly under-owned. Therefore, it will remain a preferred asset
class with expectations of improvement in corporate balance sheet
and renewal of investment and consumption cycles.

- focused on investing in equity, debt and equity-linked
instruments involved in projects or ventures that have significant
growth potential in Indias real estate sector.

The total assets managed by IIFL AMC under Mutual Fund, AIF and
Portfolio Management Services have increased to ` 56,200 million as
on March 31, 2016 from ` 28,950 million as on March 31, 2015.
Distribution business: With regulatory changes signalling a move
from a commission-based model to a more transparent and regulated
advisory fee model, the coming year promises to be one of transition.
Imposition of service tax, capping of commissions and focus on no load
schemes will continue to put pressure on commissions. However, it will
also open the possibility to build a robust annuity-based business model
with focus on a fee plus performance structure, which offers greater
transparency to clients. IIFLW, with its financial product distribution
and asset management services, added by the acquisition of NBFC
and broking licenses of BSE and NSE, is positioned as one of the most
extensive product platforms in the country. The Company would
continue to invest heavily in technology to increase employee efficiency,
delivery of products and best-in-class services to high net worth clients.
Agency
During the year, the capital market activities declined due to adverse
market conditions, as overall exchange volumes declined. The
Companys digital business has however gained traction. IIFL Markets,
mobile trading platform, is the best rated and highest downloaded
app in its category. Since February 2015, the app has seen over
500,000 downloads and over 13,500 users on Google Play Store have
accorded it a rating of 4.4 out of 5, best among the peer group.
IIFL is one of the largest distributors of financial products such as Life
Insurance, Mutual Funds, NCDs, Tax-free bonds, IPOs etc. through
wide distribution network and business associates. ICICI Prudential,
Reliance, Bharti AXA, Future Generali, Aegon Religare, HDFC Standard
Life Insurance are some of the key partners in insurance. The increasing
use of internet and mobile communication has given consumers
access to extensive information and ability to buy/sell in a fast and
convenient manner. During the year, the Company forayed into
online solutions and mobile applications in the area of mutual fund
and insurance. With our mobile apps, retail investors can compare
products, gain access to in-depth information across manufacturers
at a click of a button thereby, aiding informed decision-making.
IIFLs investment banking division registered strong momentum
and expanded the product range outside conventional equity and
capital market segments. FY2015-16 was a defining year at IIFL with
10 completed transactions, the largest number of investment banking
transactions executed by IIFL in its history in a single fiscal year.
This included IPOs, QIPs, NCD placements and pre-IPO placements,
among others, which have enabled mobilisation/placement of
` 32,756 million.

FINANCIAL REVIEW
As a significant part of the Companys business is conducted through
its subsidiaries, the consolidated accounts provide a more accurate
representation of the Companys performance compared with the
standalone. Therefore, the Management Discussion and Analysis
pertains to consolidated results.
NBFC Operations
For the year, the income from NBFC operations stood at ` 11,563
million, up 13% year-on-year (y-o-y), while Profit after Tax was at
` 3,387 million, up 12% y-o-y. NBFCs ROE for FY2015-16 stood at
16.9% and ROA was 1.8%.
Consistent financial performance is being achieved through a welldiversified product suite comprising traditional businesses such as
home loan, loan against property, commercial vehicle finance, gold
loan and medical equipment finance as well as new age businesses
such as digital finance.
Loan book, predominantly retail, showed a steady increase of 21%
y-o-y to ` 177,695 million with total Assets under Management (AUM)
at ` 195,144 million, up 21% y-o-y for the year ended March 31, 2016.
This growth was driven by retail home loans, commercial vehicle
(CV), medical equipment finance and SME business loans. In recent
years, the share of retail mortgages in the overall loan book has been
rising steadily. Retail mortgage loans, at ` 72,414 million, constitute
41% of the loan book and grew 89% y-o-y. Commercial vehicle loan
book increased 93% y-o-y to ` 16,936 million. The Companys large
mortgage loans or construction finance strategy dovetails its retail
home loan strategy where it funds reputed developers against their
residential projects, which are suitable for the Companys home loan
customer segments.

Annual Report 2015-16

69

Management Discussion & Analysis (contd.)

However, there was a decline in loan book of large mortgages; gold


and capital market related loans grew in single digits. This is part of a
conscious strategy to de-risk the Companys loan book and make it
more retail focused.
NIMs have declined to 6.2% in FY2015-16 due to higher share of
lower-yielding loans. Going forward, NIMs are expected to stabilise
at these levels due to higher yields on gold, CV, and SME loans.
Borrowing costs are expected to drop as banks gradually pass on the
benefits of rate cuts by RBI.
The Company will continue to expand its retail customer base
supported by strong presence in over 1,000 branches across length
and breadth of the country. Furthermore, it is driving digitization
initiatives for improved operational and sales efficacy.

The Companys NPAs remain at a low level and provision coverage is


comfortable. It has created additional provisions, well in excess of RBI
norms as well as its own internal norms.
NPAs are expected to remain stable in the coming year due to a
de-risked portfolio strategy, well developed credit appraisal and
monitoring processes, and enhanced collection efforts. The Company
would be moving from 150+DPD to 120+DPD NPA recognition norm
in the current year. This would create a temporary rise in NPA ratio
in the first quarter, which the Company expects to bring down in
subsequent quarters through tightening of collection periods.
Wealth management operations
The wealth subsidiary, IIFL Wealth Management Ltd registered
another year of strong financial performance. During FY16, the
Companys income was at ` 5,909 million, up 29% y-o-y while PAT
was at ` 1,694 million, up 52% y-o-y.
The Company offers advisory, wealth structuring solutions, asset
management and distribution services to high net-worth households
(HNWH). Under the wealth management business, total assets under
management, distribution, and advice stood at ` 794 billion as at
March 31, 2016, up 12% y-o-y.
During the year, the Company commenced lending operations to
HNWH clientele, through the dedicated NBFC subsidiary, IIFL Wealth
Finance Ltd; and had assets of ` 9 billion as at March 31, 2016. In the
coming year, the Company expects to build a strong loan against
securities book from its HNWH clientele.
With the acquisition of NBFC and broking licenses of BSE and NSE, the
Company positioned itself to participate in the larger share of wallet
besides family office, estate planning, and offshore advisory solutions
enabling a stronger penetration into this segment.

# Others include Medical equipment finance, SME business loans

Operating cost ratios are expected to decline, as the Company achieves


better economies of scale in most of its products. The Company has
put in place the requisite infrastructure including branches, sales,
credit and risk teams and support functions. The Company should
be able to grow its loan book significantly from current level, on the
back of this infrastructure. The Companys focus on digitization and
analytics should further help improve its operating efficiencies.
India Infoline Finance Ltds capital adequacy ratio stood at 17.71% as
at March 31, 2016, while the Tier I capital ratio was 11.66%. Similarly,
the capital adequacy ratio of India Infoline Housing Finance stood
at 16.75% as on March 31, 2016 against the mandated 12%, giving
adequate room to expand the loan book. In FY2015-16, Gross NonPerforming Assets (GNPA) marginally increased to 1.44% from 1.27% in
FY2014-15. Net NPAs remained flat at 0.54%. Total provision coverage
(including standard asset provision) stands at 89.7% of gross NPAs.

Capital Market Activities


On the capital market business, the Companys revenues and
profits declined on y-o-y basis as market volumes declined and
commission rates were under pressure. Income from capital
market activities includes brokerage and related income from
cash and derivatives segment at BSE and NSE as well as currency
segment, commodities trading and investment banking
services. During the year, capital market activities income was at
` 4,397 million, down 2% y-o-y.
The average daily equity market turnover was at ` 68,308 million
in FY2015-16, down by 4% y-o-y as against 10% y-o-y fall in the
exchange turnover. The exchange traded volumes in commodity
segment increased 8% y-o-y, while the business volumes were
up 5% y-o-y. Within currency segment, the average daily currency
turnover for the business was down 24%, while exchange (NSE)
volumes were up 47% y-o-y.

Management Discussion & Analysis | Statutory Reports

During the year, the Companys investment banking team focused on


diversifying its business mix beyond traditional Equity Capital Markets
(ECM) based products. This trend is expected to continue in coming
years. The team has successfully completed 10 transactions during
FY2015-16 and endeavours to grab a larger market share in FY201617. Besides the experience and track record of its team members,
the investment banking division leverages upon the Groups strong
research capabilities, strength in institutional placements, wide reach
and presence in every investor segment.

million in FY2015-16, up 16% y-o-y because of salary increments

wealth operations, primarily due to increase in headcount to support
higher business volumes last year and in anticipation of future ramp
up. Salary costs were contained in the capital markets business.

in FY2014-15 to 11,890 in FY2015-16.
Finance Cost

strong culture of transparency and service orientation within the
organisation. The Group continued to live up to the expectations
of building people-friendly policies and practices in FY2015-16 and
closely align them to its business requirements.
Strong Management Team
This year, IIFL was increasingly looked at as a preferred employer by
senior professionals from the banking and financial services industry.
The Group attracted several top-notch professionals in the Wealth,
NBFC and HFC businesses, who were driven by the agenda of growth
and transformation. The entrepreneurial culture that IIFL prides in is a

technical analysis, through classroom coaching and e-learning. The


Group also provides product-specific trainings for all its businesses.
During the year, IIFL initiated free-of-cost, short-duration Customer

Programme to deliver these trainings to willing participants.
Encouraging Performance
IIFL, as an organisation, holds performance and potential to determine
employee growth and promotions. Individual Performance Measures

supplements the Groups efforts to evaluate the performance of
employees in an objective and transparent manner and provide
feedback in a constructive manner.
Encouraging gender diversity
IIFL is an equal opportunity employer. To cultivate a healthy and
balanced workforce, focus is given particularly on having at least one
female employee in branches. Quarterly women-oriented workshops/
programmes are conducted for mentoring and development of
the female staff. During the year, IIFL launched the WIW (Women
Influence Women) Series to showcase the Star Women performers
who were nominated on various criteria.
Focus on enhancing employee engagement

this can only happen when employees are engaged at work. Various
initiatives were introduced during the year to actively engage and
connect with employees, spread across locations and businesses.
Initiatives are also underway to measure employee engagement at a
team level through a regular Pulse Survey, and facilitating the teams
to work on specific interventions to enhance team scores.

Management Discussion & Analysis (contd.)

IIFL believes that Enterprise


Risk Management provides a
sound foundation to ensure that
the risk-taking activities across
the Group are in line with the
business strategy, the risk appetite
approved by the Board and
regulatory requirements.

RISK MANAGEMENT
Risk management is a key element of IIFLs business strategy and
is integrated seamlessly across all of its business operations. The
objective of IIFLs risk management process is to optimise the riskreturn equation and ensure meticulous compliance to all extant laws,
rules, and regulations applicable for all of its business activities.
IIFL seeks to foster a strong and disciplined risk management culture
across all of its business entities and at all levels of employees.
IIFL takes a holistic view of risk management and undertakes an
enterprise-wide risk management approach under the Enterprise
Risk Management (ERM) Framework. IIFL believes that ERM provides
a sound foundation to ensure that the risk-taking activities across
the Group are in line with the business strategy, the risk appetite
approved by the Board and regulatory requirements.
IIFL adopts the three lines-of-defence (3 LOD) model wherein
management control at the business entity level is the first line of
defence in risk management. Various risk control and compliance
oversight functions, established by the management are the second
line of defence. Finally, the third line comprises the internal audit/
assurance function. All three lines play a distinct role within IIFLs
wider governance framework.
IIFLs experienced compliance and audit and risk management teams
play a vital role in ensuring that rules and regulations are strictly
followed in all processes, not just in letter but also in spirit. The risk
management discipline is centrally initiated but implemented at
the business entity level. This ensures that each of the operating
subsidiaries is fully responsible for the initiation, management,
measurement, and mitigation of all risk-taking activities within
the business unit, and for meticulous compliance to all regulatory
guidelines pertaining to the specific business.
Risk management also forms a critical part of the Groups training
modules across all levels, so that employees across the hierarchy are
74

IIFL Holdings Limited

trained on risk management and implications thereof. The Companys


well-defined organisational structure, documented policies and
standard operating procedures (SOPs), authority matrix and internal
controls ensure efficiency of operations, besides compliance with
internal policies and regulatory requirements.
IIFL has adopted digital initiatives in all its key businesses, starting
with broking and distribution followed by loans and credit as well
as customer service, internal operations and HR. Digitization ensures
less human intervention and superior customer service. Moreover,
technology vastly eliminates the scope for any fraud, omission, and
commission of errors.
Credit, Liquidity and Finance Risk
In the financing business, IIFL has a multi-level Credit and Investment
Committee consisting of Directors of the Board / Head of the
Departments to consider medium to large credit proposals. However,
smaller proposals are decided at appropriate level as per the approval
matrix. The Group has in place Risk Management Committee and
Asset Liability Management Committee (ALCO), consisting of
Directors and senior officials. They regularly meet and review the
policies, systems, controls, and positions of the financing business.
The Risk Management Committee reviews the risk management
processes, covering credit and underwriting controls, operations,
technology and compliance risks.
Enterprise risk management framework, put in place at the Group
level, provides oversight on the risk-taking activities and guidance.
The ALCO committee reviews the strategic management of interest
rate and liquidity risk, review of product pricing for various loans and
advances, desired maturity profile and mix of the incremental assets
and liabilities. It also reviews the Companys funding policies in the
light of interest rate movements and desired fund mixes, particularly
fixed / floating rate funds, wholesale / retail funds and money market
funding, among others.
To ensure frequent reviews and actions, an internal ALCO Operating
Committee has also been put in place. The Committee consists of
business, finance, and treasury heads, which meets on a monthly
basis, analyses and initiates appropriate actions keeping in view the
emerging conditions. The supervisory ALCO of the Board ensures
that the business and risk management strategy operates within the
limits/parameters set by the Board and reviews the functioning of the
internal ALCO. It also reviews the Companys funding strategy and
implementation of ALCOs decisions.

OUTLOOK
A sound financial system is essential for a countrys overall economic
growth. India, the worlds fourth largest economy, is projected to
grow at 7.5% in FY2016-17 (Source: World Bank). Yet, the per capita
income in real terms during FY2015-16 stood at` 72,889 or` 6,074
per month (Source:mospi.nic.in).Policy reforms promoting inclusive
growth and an easily accessible financial system will form the basis
for a sustainable growth path. During the year, the government
introduced and implemented several policies in this regard. The
Jan Dhan Yojana - Aadhaar number - Mobile connectivity (JAM)
Trinity will bring in more people under the umbrella of the formal
financial sector. A normal monsoon this year would rejuvenate the
rural economy and create more jobs, increasing disposable income.
Furthermore, an improved rural economy will spur demand for
financial services.

Companies with a diversified business model and a consistent


strategy are most likely to gain from improving prospects of the
Indian economy and financial services sector. There is a need for
players to adopt a holistic approach towards digitalization and in
aligning it with their business strategy.
A broad customer base, wide pan-India reach, diversified product
range, experienced team of professionals, and well-developed
systems and processes position IIFL suitably well to capture the
emerging opportunities in the financial services space. IIFL is focused
on fortifying its relationship with clients through seamless service and
differentiated offerings. For this, the Group will leverage on digitization
and a cost-effective model to enhance its operational processes. The
Group will proactively attract and retain talented, motivated, and
proven professionals and work on strategic alliances. Furthermore,
it will augment services complementing the organisations core
competences and grow in the financial services space.

Annexure B to the Auditors Report


Independent Auditors report to the members of IIFL Holdings Limited
(the Company) on the Internal Financial Controls under Clause (i) of
Sub-section 3 of Section 143 of the Companies Act, 2013 (the Act).
We have audited the internal financial controls over financial reporting
of the Company as of March 31, 2016 in conjunction with our audit
of the standalone financial statements of the Company for the year
ended on that date.
MANAGEMENTS RESPONSIBILITY FOR INTERNAL
FINANCIAL CONTROLS
The Companys management is responsible for establishing and
maintaining internal financial controls based on the internal control
over financial reporting criteria established by the Company
considering the essential components of internal control stated
in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls over
Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants
of India (ICAI).
These responsibilities include the design, implementation and
maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that were
operating effectively for ensuring the orderly and efficient conduct
of its business, including adherence to Companys policies, the
safeguarding of its assets, the prevention and detection of frauds and
errors, the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, and
the timely preparation of reliable financial information, as required
under the Companies Act, 2013.
AUDITORS RESPONSIBILITY
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Companys internal
financial controls over financial reporting based on our audit. We
conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note on
Audit of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting (the
Guidance Note) and the Standards on Auditing, issued by ICAI and
deemed to be prescribed under section 143(10) of the Companies
Act, 2013, to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial
controls, both applicable to an audit of Internal Financial Controls
and, both issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India.
Those Standards and the Guidance Note require that we comply
with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether adequate internal financial
controls over financial reporting was established and maintained and
if such controls operated effectively in all material respects.

100

IIFL Holdings Limited

Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence


about the adequacy of the internal financial controls system over
financial reporting and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of
internal financial controls over financial reporting included obtaining
an understanding of internal financial controls over financial
reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and
testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of
internal control based on the assessed risk. The procedures selected
depend on the auditors judgment, including the assessment of the
risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether
due to fraud or error.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and
appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the Companys
internal financial controls system over financial reporting.
MEANING OF INTERNAL FINANCIAL CONTROLS OVER
FINANCIAL REPORTING
A companys internal financial control over financial reporting is a
process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the
reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial
statements for external purposes in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles. A companys internal financial control
over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures
that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable
detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions
of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance
that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation
of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the
company are being made only in accordance with authorisations
of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide
reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of
unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the companys assets
that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
INHERENT LIMITATIONS OF INTERNAL FINANCIAL
CONTROLS OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls over
financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper
management override of controls, material misstatements due to
error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projections of any
evaluation of the internal financial controls over financial reporting to

Standalone | Financial Statements

future periods are subject to the risk that the internal financial control
over financial reporting may become inadequate because of changes
in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or
procedures may deteriorate.
OPINION
In our opinion, the Company has, in all material respects, an adequate
internal financial controls system over financial reporting and such
internal financial controls over financial reporting were operating
effectively as at March 31, 2016, based on the internal control over
financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering

the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance


Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting
issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India.

distribution of financial products and wealth management services
which are carried out by separate subsidiaries of IIFL Holdings Limited.
NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
2.1 Basis of Accounting and Preparation of Financial
Statements:
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in India
(Indian GAAP) to comply with all material aspects of the
applicable Accounting Standards notified under section 133 of
Companies Act, 2013 (Act) read with Rule 7 of the Companies
Accounts Rules, 2014 (as amended) and the relevant provisions
of the Companies Act, 2013. The financial statements have been
prepared on accrual basis under the historical cost convention.
The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the
financial statements are consistent with those followed in the
previous year by the Company.
2.2 Use of Estimates:
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with the
generally accepted accounting principles which requires the
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect
the reported amount of assets and liabilities on the date of
the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues
and expenses during the reporting period. The management
believes that the estimates used in the preparation of financial
statements are prudent and reasonable. Difference between the
actual result and estimates are recognized in the period in which
the results are known / materialized.
2.3 Fixed Assets and Depreciation and Amortization:
Fixed assets are stated at cost of acquisition less accumulated
depreciation and impairment loss, if any, thereon. Depreciation
is charged using the straight line method based on the useful
life of fixed assets as estimated by the management as specified
below. Depreciation is charged from the month in which new
assets are put to use. No depreciation is charged for the month
in which assets are sold. In the case of transfer of used fixed
assets from group Companies, depreciation is charged over the
remaining useful life of the assets. Individual assets / group of
similar assets costing up to ` 5,000 has been depreciated in full in
the year of purchase. Lease hold land is depreciated on a straight
line basis over the lease hold period.

Estimated useful life of the assets is as under:


Class of Assets
Buildings*
Computers*
Office Equipment
Electrical Equipment *
Furniture and Fixtures*
Vehicles*
Software

Useful life in Years


20
3
5

* For these class of assets, based on internal assessment and independent


technical evaluation carried out by external valuers, the management
believes that the useful lives as given above best represent the period
over which management expects to use these assets. Hence, the useful
lives for these assets are different from the useful lives as prescribed under
Part C of Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013.

2.4 Translation of Foreign Currency Items:


Foreign currency transactions are recorded at the exchange rates
prevailing on the date of the transaction. Exchange difference,
if any, arising out of transactions settled during the year are
recognized in the statement of Profit and Loss. Foreign currency
monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange
rate prevailing on the Balance Sheet date. The exchange gains or
losses, if any, are recognized in the statement of Profit and Loss
and related assets and liabilities are accordingly restated in the
Balance Sheet.
2.5 Revenue Recognition:
Revenue is recognized to the extent it is probable that the
economic benefits will flow to the Company and the revenue
can be reliably measured. The following specific recognition
criteria must also be met before revenue is recognized.

(a) Income related to advisory activities, Investment banking,


Merchant banking is accounted on accrual basis.

(b) Dividend income is recognized when the right to receive


payment is established.

(c) Capital Gain/ Loss is recognized on the date of trade.

Annual Report 2015-16

105

Standalone Financial Statements of IIFL Holdings Limited

Notes forming part of Standalone Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2016

recognized in the Balance Sheet in respect of gratuity is the


present value of defined benefit obligation at the Balance Sheet
date together with the adjustments for unrecognized actuarial
gain or losses and the past service costs. The defined benefit
obligation is calculated at or near the Balance Sheet date by an
independent actuary using the projected unit credit method.
2.7 Deferred Employee Stock Compensation:
The stock options granted by the Company are accounted for as
per the accounting treatment prescribed by SEBI (Employee Stock
Option Scheme and Employee Stock Purchase) Guidelines, 1999
and the guidance note on Accounting for Stock Options issued
by The Institute of Chartered Accountant of India, whereby the
intrinsic value of the options are recognised as deferred employee
compensation. The deferred employee compensation is charged
to the Statement of Profit and Loss on a straight line basis over
the vesting period of the options. The Employee Stock Options
Outstanding Account, net of unamortised Deferred Employee
Compensation is shown separately as part of Reserves and Surplus.
2.8 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets:

The Company creates a provision when there is present
obligation as a result of a past event that probably requires an
outflow of resources and a reliable estimate can be made of the
amount of the obligation. A disclosure for a contingent liability is
made when there is a possible obligation or a present obligation
that may, but probably will not, require an outflow of resources.
When there is a possible obligation or a present obligation in
respect of which the likelihood of outflow of resources is remote,
no provision or disclosure is made.
Provisions are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date and adjusted
to reflect the current best estimate. If it is no longer probable
that the outflow of resources would be required to settle the
obligation, the provision is reversed.
Contingent Assets are neither recognized nor disclosed in the
financial statements.
2.9 Taxes on Income:
Tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Current incometax is measured at the amount expected to be paid to the tax
authorities in accordance with the Income-tax Act, 1961 enacted
in India. Provision for current tax is computed based on estimated
tax liability computed after adjusting for allowance, disallowance
and exemptions in accordance with the applicable tax laws.
Deferred income taxes reflect the impact of timing differences
between taxable income and accounting income originating

106

IIFL Holdings Limited

during the current year and reversal of timing differences for the
earlier years. Deferred tax is measured using the tax rate and the
tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the Balance Sheet
date. The deferred tax asset is recognised or unrecognised, to
the extent that it has become reasonably certain or virtually
certain, as the case may be, that sufficient future taxable income
will be available. At each reporting date, the Company reassesses unrecognized deferred tax assets. Deferred tax liability
is recognised as and when arisen.
2.10 Operating Leases:
Lease rentals in respect of operating lease arrangements are
charged to the Statement of Profit & loss in accordance with
Accounting Standard 19 Leases, issued by the Institute of
Chartered Accountants of India.
2.11 Investments:
Investments, which are readily realizable and intended to be
held for not more than one year from the date on which such
investments are made, are classified as current investments. All
other Investments are classified as non current investments.
Current investments are stated at lower of cost or fair value. Non
current investments are carried at cost. Provision for diminution
in value of non current investments is made, if in the opinion of
the management such diminution is other than temporary. For
investment in mutual funds, the net assets value (NAV) declared
by the mutual funds at the Balance Sheet date is considered as
the fair value.
2.12 Inventories:
Closing stock is valued at cost or market value whichever is
lower. Cost is computed on FIFO basis. The comparison of cost

Annexure A to the
Independent Auditors Report
REPORT ON THE INTERNAL FINANCIAL CONTROLS UNDER
CLAUSE (i) OF SUB-SECTION 3 OF SECTION 143 OF THE
COMPANIES ACT, 2013 (THE ACT)
In conjunction with our audit of the consolidated financial statements
of the Company as of and for the year ended March 31, 2016, We have
audited the internal financial controls over financial reporting of IIFL
Holdings Limited (hereinafter referred to as the Holding Company)
and its subsidiary companies which are incorporated in India, as of
that date.
MANAGEMENTS RESPONSIBILITY FOR INTERNAL
FINANCIAL CONTROLS
The respective Board of Directors of the of the Holding Company and
its subsidiary companies, which are companies incorporated in India,
are responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial
controls based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria
established by the Company considering the essential components
of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal
Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting (the Guidance Note)
issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI). These
responsibilities include the design, implementation and maintenance
of adequate internal financial controls that were operating effectively
for ensuring the orderly and efficient conduct of its business, including
adherence to the respective companys policies, the safeguarding
of its assets, the prevention and detection of frauds and errors, the
accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, and the timely
preparation of reliable financial information, as required under the
Companies Act, 2013 (the Act).
AUDITORS RESPONSIBILITY
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Companys internal
financial controls over financial reporting based on our audit. We
conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note issued
by the ICAI and the Standards on Auditing deemed to be prescribed
under Section 143(10) of the Act, to the extent applicable, to an audit
of internal financial controls, both issued by the ICAI. Those Standards
and the Guidance Note require that we comply with ethical
requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether adequate internal financial controls over
financial reporting was established and maintained and if such
controls operated effectively in all material respects.
Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence
about the adequacy of the internal financial controls system over
financial reporting and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of

126

IIFL Holdings Limited

internal financial controls over financial reporting included obtaining


an understanding of internal financial controls over financial
reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and
testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of
internal control based on the assessed risk. The procedures selected
depend on the auditors judgment, including the assessment of the
risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether
due to fraud or error.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and
appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the Companys
internal financial controls system over financial reporting.
MEANING OF INTERNAL FINANCIAL CONTROLS OVER
FINANCIAL REPORTING
A Companys internal financial control over financial reporting is
a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the
reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial
statements for external purposes in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles. A Companys internal financial
control over financial reporting includes those policies and
procedures that: (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in
reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and
dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable
assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit
preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of
the company are being made only in accordance with authorisations
of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide
reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of
unauthorised acquisition, use, or disposition of the Companys assets
that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
INHERENT LIMITATIONS OF INTERNAL FINANCIAL
CONTROLS OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls over
financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper
management override of controls, material misstatements due to
error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projections of any
evaluation of the internal financial controls over financial reporting to
future periods are subject to the risk that the internal financial control
over financial reporting may become inadequate because of changes
in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or
procedures may deteriorate.
