CHANGE IN NATURE OF BUSINESS:

There has been no change in nature of business of the company during the F.Y. 2023-2024.

MATERIAL CHANGES AND COMMITMENTS:

There has been no material changes and commitments, affecting the Financial Position of the Company,
which have occurred between the End of Financial Year of the Company to which the Financial Statements
relate and the date of the report.

DIVIDEND:

Due to insufficient profit during the year under review The Board has decided not to recommend any
dividend for the year ended 31st March 2024.

TRANSFER TO RESERVE:

The Company has transferred Rs. 4.49 lacs (20% of Rs. 22.43 lacs) to statutory reserve under section 45 IC of
RBI Act 1934 in the financial year 2023-2024.

CHANGES IN SHARE CAPITAL:

The paid up Equity Share Capital as on 31st March, 2024 stood at Rs. 500.09 Crore. During the year under
review, the Company has not issued any shares with differential voting rights, sweat equity shares nor
granted any stock options. The company neither came out with rights, bonus, private placement and
preferential issue.

OPERATIONS & FUTURE OUTLOOK:

The Company will look to extend to adjacent business spaces without compromising the integrity of the loan
book. We believe that the market for this is large and relatively underpenetrated.

Given the potential in the business, we believe that we should be able to more than double revenues during
the current financial year and double that again in 2025-26. The next two years are expected to generate
sizeable growth, enhancing value for our customers while improving our visibility and profitability.

According to RBI one of the main reasons for tighter regulation is to reduce the systematic risk they pose to
the financial system since they borrow heavily from banks. Prima facie it may appear that these reforms will
affect the productivity of the NBFCs; however, with time they are more likely to improve NBFCs capacity to
endure asset quality shocks and also deal with systemic risks. Moreover, increase in disclosure requirements
and corporate governance norms will have a three-fold effect. It will enhance transparency and increase the
responsibility of the management and further supplement investor awareness.

INTERNAL FINANCIAL CONTROL SYSTEM AND THEIR ADEQUACY:

The Company has policy for Internal Financial Control System, commensurate with the size, scale and
complexity of its operations. Detailed procedural manuals are in place to ensure that all the assets are
safeguarded, protected against loss and all transactions are authorized, recorded and reported correctly. The
scope and authority of the Internal Audit (IA) function is defined in the internal financial control policy. The
Internal Auditor monitors and evaluates the efficiency and adequacy of Internal Financial control system in
the Company, its compliance with operating systems, accounting procedures and policies. To maintain its
