Business
The Indian economy achieved good growth in the year and is estimated to
have grown at 8.6 percent during FY 2010-11, as compared to 7.4 percent
during FY 2009-10. WPI based inflation remained high in major part of
the year and was at 8.9 percent at March end. High food inflation,
which was 9.2 percent for the week ended 26 March 2011, has been one of
the major contributors to overall high inflation in the economy.
Responding to this, RBI has been following policies of monetary
tightening for the entire year, which has pushed up the interest rates
in the economy. Despite this, retail assets demand continues to be
strong.
There was robust growth in sales of new vehicles during fiscal 2010-11.
Domestic sales of new commercial vehicles registered a healthy growth
of 27.3 percent during 2010-11 as compared to 2009-10, while sales of
new cars and UVs registered a growth of 29.3 percent during the
financial year. Tractors sales also grew about 21 percent during the
year under review.
As supported by strong growth in primary sales, Magma Fincorp Limited
recorded total funding of Rs.5,262 crore (on a standalone basis) during
FY 2010-11, resulting in 31.9 percent growth over Rs.3,989 crore
recorded during FY 2009-10. Aided by growth in business, build up of
on-book assets and increasing share from high yield products such as
Suvidha (Used CV), Tractors and SME Loans, total income enhanced to Rs
847.33 crore, representing a 20.53 percent growth over Rs.703.00 crore
achieved in last year.
Higher business volumes have been accompanied by better asset quality,
superior collection performance, dramatically lower write-offs and
higher cost efficiency. Accordingly, profit before tax increased to
Rs.170.50 crore during 2010-11, compared to Rs.103.04 crore for
2009-10, a growth of 65.5 percent. Profit after tax recorded remarkable
72.2 percent growth, from Rs.66.46 crore in last year to Rs.114.43
crore in 2010-11.
Profitability parameters of the Company have shown significant
improvement during the year. RoA (return on average assets) has
improved from 1.7 percent in 2009-10 to 2.2 percent in 2010-11, while
RoE (Return on Average Equity) has enhanced from 18.5 percent in
2009-10 to 22.7 percent in 2010-11.
