STRONG
ROOTS

“Sometimes adversity is what you need to face in order to become successful” - As we complete 6 full years of
operations and step into the seventh year of our journey, we are able to appreciate the meaning of this quote
better.
Having made our footprint when the industry was in its heydays and having seen the crisis of survival take
its toll on the industry, Asirvad probably has seen it all. And it would be no exaggeration to say that we have
emerged more efficient and poised for stronger growth.
The fairly stable regulatory environment characterized by the granting of NBFC - MFI licenses after rigorous
checks, liquidity finding its way back to the sector, stabilization of the credit bureau usage, have all contributed
to the growth of the industry at large. The adversities showcased the resilience of Asirvad and the organization
is back on an accelerated growth trajectory after the slack growth during the last couple of years. Our borrowers
have stood with us, our staff have been pillars of support, our lenders have reposed their confidence in us and
all these have contributed in no mean measure to Asirvad’s growth.
Asirvad’s growth during the current year stands out - we have achieved what may be termed as “diversified
growth” and this is the theme of our 7th Annual report. Marking our presence in the states of Kerala, Orissa
and Gujarat, we have taken the first step in reaching out to financially include people outside the state of Tamil
Nadu. Blessed are those who are able to share their good fortune with the not so fortuitous; we hope that our
journey of empowering people continues to be just as sweet and enriching as the last seven years.

Seventh Annual Report 2013 - 14
MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRMAN
It feels good to be back to times of positivity.
Having been engulfed by the industry crisis since
the latter half of 2010, the financial year 201314 has been like the calm after the storm. While
the crisis showed signs of easing out during the
second half of 2012-13, it was only in 2013-14
that the confidence of the investors, lenders and
all other stakeholders was restored in totality
and no doubt, the results of the Microfinance
Institutions say it all.
Microfinance is probably one of the few
businesses with twin objectives of commercial
sustainability and social impact. While there
is no doubt that the loans provided by the
Microfinance Institutions go a long way in
improving the standard of life of the borrowers,
it is also essential for the Companies to remain
commercially sustainable so that long term
social impact could be achieved. To this extent,
the guidelines issued by the Reserve Bank of
India are a welcome step to achieve commercial
sustainability without compromising on the
social impact that Microfinance Institutions
are expected to bring about. The Reserve Bank
has also signaled its intent to be the regulator
of the industry through issue of NBFC – MFI
licenses which has lent additional credence to
the contribution of Microfinance Institutions in
achieving financial inclusion.
It is with immense joy that I would like to mention
that Asirvad was one of the earliest recipients
of this license which reinforces the efficacy
of its processes, adherence to regulations,
9
transparency and strong corporate governance.
It is also an undisputable fact that the Reserve
Bank left no stone unturned in convincing
themselves of the orderly functioning of the
Microfinance Institutions before awarding the
NBFC – MFI license. To this extent, the Company
had to provide lots of documentation sought for
by the Central bank, respond to their queries and
clarifications and convince them of its orderly
functioning. Thanks to the untiring efforts of the
staff and the Management team, Asirvad was
able to demonstrate its credibility to the Reserve
Bank and the NBFC – MFI license stands a
testimony to this.
I also take pride in mentioning that Asirvad grew
from strength to strength during the current
financial year and following are some of the
significant achievements of Asirvad during the
year:
• We have commenced lending operations in
other States apart from Tamil Nadu
• We got ourselves registered as an NBFC –
MFI
• We showed significant increase in our
portfolio and member base
• We have managed to maintain our very
strong portfolio quality with close to zero
delinquencies
• We continue to remain a commercially viable
organization
All this was achieved without any compromise on
the quality of our processes or internal controls.
We continue to use Credit Bureau reports for
every single loan that we sanction, training and
group recognition tests are adhered to without
any deviations, and all the stipulations laid down
by the Reserve Bank are followed both in letter
and in spirit.
This year also marks the geographical expansion
of Asirvad into the states of Kerala, Orissa and
Gujarat. Despite the sourcing constraints laid
Seventh Annual Report 2013 - 14
down by the regulations, Asirvad has managed to
build a fairly sizeable portfolio in Kerala. We have
also been able to originate quality portfolio in the
states of Gujarat and Orissa and I am sure that
we will be able to scale up our non-TN portfolio
further in the coming years. This will help us
mitigate any concentration risk that might arise
on account of specific state level actions.
I would be failing in my duty if I don’t mention the
immense support that our lenders have extended
during the current year. With their support, we
have managed to mobilize over Rs.255 Crores
during FY 2013-14 which is over 75% higher
than the funds mobilized in the previous year.
This has also resulted in our portfolio growing
by about 85% during the current year. We had
also issued our first Non-Convertible Debenture
during this year, which has helped us diversify
our funding streams and we hope that we will be
able to deepen this in the coming years.
This year has seen the highest amount of loan
disbursals that Asirvad has achieved ever since
inception. We disbursed about Rs.245 Crores,
which is about 90% higher than last year’s
disbursals. This would not have been possible
but for the dedicated efforts of our field staff
who were ably backed up by all other support
functions. Our staffs continue to be the pillars
of strength for Asirvad and no amount of words
would be adequate to thank them for their
phenomenal efforts and I am sure Asirvad will
be able to scale new highs with their enthusiasm
and commitment. I also want to express my
sincere gratitude towards the Board members
who have been extremely supportive in providing
necessary guidance and direction to the team so
that we could realize all these achievements.
Asirvad Development Foundation has continued
its good work in providing education and medical
assistance to the needy. During the year, we
provided education scholarships to deserving
students and also funded the setting up of
English Language labs in rural and nursery
10
schools which will help improve the English
speaking and conversation skills of rural
children so that they remain on par with the
children of urban schools. On the medical
front, the foundation supported the open heart
surgery of an underprivileged child, and I am
happy to state that the child is now healthy and
doing well. Such instances bring about a sense
of satisfaction and happiness and I hope that we
get further opportunities to be of service to the
society.
By far, FY 2013-14 has been the best year for
Asirvad and I hope that these good times continue
in the years to come. I would like to thank all the
stakeholders for their support and patronage
and hope that they continue to remain with us
in this glorious journey of financial inclusion
and social development. Exciting times await us
and I hope and pray that we will be able to make
these times count.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION ANALYSIS
INTRODUCTION
In a country like India where a major part of the population does not have access to banking, achieving
financial inclusion assumes a great level of importance. However it does not come without its share
of challenges. Despite being one of the top items on the Central bank agenda, banks have not been
able to make much inroads and financial inclusion continues to remain a distant dream.
The Joint Liability Group model of lending patronized by the Microfinance Institutions (MFIs) helped
bridge this gap and access to finance was made available even to hitherto unbanked people. The
operational framework of the MFIs which enables finance being taken to the doorsteps of the
borrowers made financial inclusion possible and the concept was well embraced by the borrowers
as well. Such financial inclusion helped the borrowers enhance their standard of living and resulted
in numerous benefits to the society at large.
The industry faced a survival crisis with the introduction of an ordinance by the AP government which
effectively curbed the Microfinance business. However the Reserve Bank of India took cognizance of
the fact that the benefits brought about by the sector overweighed the costs and hence ensured the
survival of the industry albeit within a much more stringent regulatory framework. Detailed policies
were laid down and RBI went so far as to create a special category under the NBFC umbrella, the
‘NBFC – MFI’. NBFC – MFI licenses were also issued by the Central bank during FY 2013-14, which
brought the original resurgence back to the sector.
Asirvad was one of the earliest institutions to be certified as NBFC – MFI by the RBI, which was
one of the very positive developments for the organization during 2013-14. This, coupled with the
high grading accorded by ICRA, served as a launch-pad for securing new funding relationships
and Asirvad was able to significantly increase its disbursals and portfolio during the current year.
The Company raised funds through multiple modes of funding – vanilla term loans from banks and
financial institutions, multi-originator securitization transactions structured by IFMR Capital and
also issue of its first non-convertible debenture through the private placement route.
Despite the increase in business volumes during the year, Asirvad has strictly adhered to all the
covenants laid out by the Reserve Bank in its circular. Every loan application is screened through the
Credit Bureau and all the loans provided conform to the stipulations of the Central bank. The process
efficiencies coupled with compliance to regulations and strict underwriting norms have ensured that
the portfolio of Asirvad continues to remain very strong with the delinquencies being sub 5 bps.
FINANCIAL YEAR 2013 - 14
FY 2013-14 has been a commendable year for Asirvad to say the least. With favorable liquidity
conditions that prevailed during the entire year, the portfolio nearly doubled, profitability has more
than doubled and all this has been achieved without any compromise on the portfolio quality.
The stringent controls enforced by the organization have given a lot of comfort to the lenders and
this resulted in new banks and financial institutions coming forward to lend to the company during
the financial year under review. Andhra Bank, Vijaya bank, Bank of Maharashtra, IndusInd Bank, ING
Vysya Bank, Pallavan Grama Bank and Reliance Capital lent to Asirvad for the first time during FY
2013-14.
16
Seventh Annual Report 2013 - 14
OPERATIONAL HIGHLIGHTS
RBI issued NBFC – MFI licenses during the financial year 2013-14 after a long period of inspection.
Asirvad was one of the earliest institutions to obtain this license and this paved the way for banks to
recommence funding to the sector. On account of the untiring work of our field staff, we were able to
grow our portfolio by about 85% during 2013-14. Membership base almost doubled to more than 2
lakhs. During the year, we also expanded geographically and were able to originate portfolio in the
states of Kerala, Orissa and Gujarat. However we mixed our expansion with caution since we wanted
the processes to be well-entrenched before embarking upon a phase of high growth.

CUSTOMER ENGAGEMENT INITIATIVES
Mahatma Gandhi once remarked, “A customer is the most important visitor on our premises. He
is not dependent on us. We are dependent on him. He is not an interruption in our work. He is the
purpose of it. He is not an outsider in our business. He is part of it. We are not doing him a favor by
serving him. He is doing us a favor by giving us an opportunity to do so”. No business or company
17
Seventh Annual Report 2013 - 14
can survive bereft of its customers. And this is no different for a Microfinance Institution and is even
truer in the current situation when RBI guidelines do not permit more than 2 institutions to lend to
the same customer.
Given that our customers come from the lower half of the societal pyramid and may not be sufficiently
aware of the financial intricacies, we ensure that they are kept informed of all the details pertaining
to the products being offered to them. We conduct compulsory 3-day training to them before the
disbursal of the loan wherein they are kept informed about the profile of the company, terms and
conditions of our products, pricing and other important issues. Also in line with the RBI guidelines,
our Company interacts with the customers by having scheduled group meetings in a common place
without causing any hindrance to the general public. We are one of the very few companies that still
insist on a minimum attendance and consider attendance as a primary criterion for the grant of a
higher cycle loan.
HUMAN RESOURCES
It is no doubt that the customers are the backbone of any business however the fact remains that
the staffs of an organization are just as important as them. In Microfinance, which is a highly people
oriented business, the primary challenge is to find a large pool of people with the right skill sets
and aptitude, followed by additional challenges of retention, talent management and development.
It is also necessary to enhance their skill and knowledge so that they become capable of assuming
higher responsibilities in the future. And no doubt, the staff of a Microfinance Institution should also
have a social bent of mind so that they can render their duties without any compromise on the social
mission of the organization.
As at the end of March 31, 2014, the number of employees in our Company stood at 351 across the
4 states that we have operations in. This is an increase of about 25% over the staff strength as at
Mar ’13.
The other challenge is to manage the attrition which is generally high amongst the Field Officers due
to their tendency to shift employment regularly for higher monetary benefits to other companies or
other lucrative industries. The compensation provided by our company is benchmarked to the market
and we also conduct performance appraisal to retain the best talent and take steps to promote and
reward high performing individuals. Out of the total employee strength mentioned above, about 60%
of employees have been with us for more than 2 years, which indicates the high level of employee
stickiness that has been the foundation on which the organization rests.
TRAINING
Training to staff is an essential prerequisite for the success of any organization. The field staffs in
a Microfinance Institution, who are the face of the organization to the customers, will have to be
trained adequately so that they are able to understand the financial requirements of the customers
and take necessary steps to satisfy such needs. In addition to this, the staff should also be made to
understand the policies and processes of the organization so that they are able to discharge their
duties without compromising any of the controls laid down by the organization.
18
Seventh Annual Report 2013 - 14
Our company imparts induction and also continuous training to our staff so that they have a clear
understanding of the processes followed and are able to discharge their duties effectively and
efficiently. The Company also equips them with necessary skills so that they stay prepared to shoulder
additional responsibilities which will help in their career progression. We have also prepared a
DVD (in vernacular language) containing the operational process in detail which is used to impart
induction training to the staff. Also the incumbent field staff is placed under senior field staff and he
/ she accompanies the senior staff during field visits which will enable him/her to understand the
process on the field under an able guidance.
INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY
In today’s era of Information Technology, a company needs to have a strong technology platform in
order to ensure smooth functioning. Given RBI imposed caps on Net Interest Margins, it becomes all
the more essential to leverage the benefits of technology as a means of cost reduction.
Since inception, our company had strongly relied on technology for capturing borrower data and
updating the collections which has resulted in addressing the operational and reporting requirements
in a better manner, reducing the man-hours of staff and productively utilizing the time of field staff.
Periodic review of the system is done by the Management team and annual review of the adequacy
of system controls is also done by our statutory auditors. This ensures that any changes required are
made to the system without any delays and the system has adequate controls to prevent any errors
of omission or commission.
Given the humungous volume of data entered into the system, we have segregated our transactional
and reporting data engines to ensure that there are no delays either on the transactional or MIS
fronts. We have also hired dedicated server space in an external server for data storage in addition
to a server hosted at Chennai, which acts as the backup. This ensures close to zero outage time and
demonstrates our preparedness to meet any eventualities.
TREASURY
The functioning of a financial institution will be seriously hampered in the absence of adequate
liquidity. This situation was very evident during the last 24 months or so when banks clamped up the
liquidity to the sector in the aftermath of the AP crisis. However, we have found normalcy returning
to the sector during the financial year under review and we managed to raise close to Rs. 256 Crores
of funds from banks and other NBFCs during this year. This is about 74% higher than the quantum
of funds mobilized in FY 2013.
In addition to mobilizing funds in the form of term loans from banks and financial institutions, the
company also participated in numerous Multi-Originator Securitization transactions structured by
IFMR Capital during the year. The Company also made its first ever NCD issuance during the year.
INTERNAL AUDIT
Setting up efficient and robust processes is only one side of the coin; it is equally important to ensure
that the processes are adhered to without any deviations. The Internal Audit function plays a major
role in ensuring adherence to defined processes. The Company had migrated to an in-house audit
team last year in order to bring in additional control mechanisms and flexibility to any changes that
19
Seventh Annual Report 2013 - 14
may become necessary.
We found the in-house mechanism to be much more effective as compared to an outsourced
arrangement and we were also able to increase the scope of audit to cover documentation check in
addition to process compliance. It was also observed that small issues, if any, could be identified and
resolved then and there. As the auditors had previous experience with the processes and operations
of the organization, they were not only able to identify and resolve issues but were also able to
provide valuable suggestions on how issues can be avoided in the future.
RISK MANAGEMENT
Every organization is subject to the following risks - Credit risk (risk of delinquency), Operational risk
(risk of inadequate processes), Liquidity risk (risk of paucity in funding availability) and Sector risk
(political considerations and the like). The Risk Management framework of an organization serves to
minimize the impact in the event of any risks threatening to compromise the organizational strength.
Our company had put in adequate checks and balances to minimize these risk incidents and also to
counter-act as and when these risks occur. Adherence to RBI guidelines also acts as a risk mitigant.
Moreover all our processes are constantly evaluated and necessary changes are brought in from
time to time. This helps weed away untoward incidents and manage credit and operational risks. The
stringent borrower selection process ensures minimal credit risk and employee training coupled with
a robust audit mechanism helps manage operational risk. Deduplication against Credit bureau and
being one of the 2 lenders to a borrower helps prevent over leveraging and multiple indebtedness.
Our Company has also constituted the ALCO (Asset-Liability Committee) which meets at periodic
intervals to ensure that there is always a positive asset-liability pattern and funding is adequately
available to meet the financial obligations that become due in the forthcoming months. The ALM
of the organization is discussed in detail and necessary action taken to ensure that it is in line with
standard requirements.
Our company mandates strict adherence to regulatory guidelines comprising of KYC requirements,
transparency, usage of credit bureau, etc, and thereby expends all efforts to ensure orderly
functioning, which in a matured scenario, would be sufficient to address the sector risk. The
registration of MFIs as NBFC – MFIs, constant supervision of the Reserve Bank, the likelihood of
Microfinance Institutions Network being appointed as the Self-regulatory organization bode well for
the Microfinance Institutions and should bring in the required supervisory framework to the Industry.
The priority sector classification available to the banks for the loans lent to MFIs, fairly attractive
interest rates charged on the facilities, low level of risk given the recent regulatory pronouncements
should help the flow of liquidity to the sector.
We are at a moment of resurgence for the Microfinance Industry. It would not be out of place to hope
for the emergence of a stronger industry backed by the experiences of all past crises and we firmly
believe that it is not a forlorn hope.

efficiency of the Board by defining ways to address and resolve issues. The Committees also help
focus on specific aspects which may miss the attention of the Board given the paucity of time and
also on account of the multifarious issues that may be placed in front of the Board.

AUDIT COMMITTEE
The Audit Committee, being the sub-group of the full board, has an important role to play in the process
of financial monitoring and reporting. The audit committee is established with the aim of enhancing
confidence in the integrity of an organization’s processes and procedures relating to internal controls
and corporate reporting including financial reporting. Audit Committee provides an ‘independent’
reassurance to the board through its oversight and monitoring role, ensuring transparency and
accuracy of financial reporting and disclosures, effectiveness of external and internal audit functions,
robustness of the systems of internal audit and internal controls, effectiveness of anti-fraud, ethics
24
Seventh Annual Report 2013 - 14
and compliance systems, and review of the functioning of the whistleblower mechanism. Audit
Committee may also play a significant role in the oversight of the company’s risk management
policies and programs. Both internal and external auditors report directly to the audit committee.
The functions of the audit committee include:

company and taking necessary corrective action.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE
Asirvad has a credible and transparent policy in determining and accounting for the remuneration
of the directors. The objective was to determine the correct remuneration package while striking
a balance between the interests of the company and the shareholders. The Committee consisted
of three members namely Mr. Krishnaswamy Rajivan, Mr. Venkatesh Natarajan and Mr. S. Rathina
Sabapathi. Compensation Committee Meeting was held on 6th June 2013 during the year under
review.
ASSET - LIABILITY COMMITTEE
The risk management framework is perhaps one of the most important parameters that define the
success of a financial services organization. A risk management programme establishes a process
of identifying and assessing the major risks covering all areas of the institution’s activities. This
includes all activities geared toward meeting its strategic, operational, reporting, and compliance
objectives. Management then develops ways to manage and mitigate these risks by implementing
a very strong system of internal controls. Management is accountable to the board of directors
for the state of the institution’s risk management and is responsible for reporting to the board of
directors its assessment of the institution’s risk and its efforts to manage and reduce this risk. The
board of directors is responsible to ensure that management has implemented a risk management
programme, that resources are allocated for risk management and internal controls, and that there
is adequate oversight of the audit function as one of the board of director’s responsibilities.
Asset Liability Committee is constituted to monitor the asset liability gap, strategize action to mitigate
the risk associated, ensuring adherence to the limits set by the Board as well as for deciding the
business strategy of the company (on the assets and liabilities sides) in line with the company’s
budget and decided risk management objectives.
During the year under review, ALCO met 12 times on 11th April 2013, 13th May 2013, 12th June 2013,

CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBLITY
This is my simple religion. There is no need for temples; no
need for complicated philosophy. Our own brain, our own heart is our
temple; the philosophy is kindness.
- Dalai Lama XIV
Faith in action is Love and Love in action is Service
- Mother Teresa
ADF is based on the philosophy of achieving sustainable economic development through philanthropy.
The inequality prevalent in our communities needs to be addressed if we are to achieve sustainable
development. And practices like philanthropy, volunteerism and development of socially-oriented
business products and services go a long way in facilitating this. We get a lot from the society and
it is our responsibility to ensure that social inequalities are remedied to the best possible extent
that lies within the realms of our capabilities. Through philanthropic contribution and support of
employee volunteerism, Asirvad Development Foundation aims in advancing social change through
educational, financial, humanitarian and health-related initiatives.
Education is a tool to refine human mind and intellect. However it is very unfortunate that a lot of
children are unable to afford education due to poverty. An educated child will turn out to be a worthy
citizen of the country. One of the primary objectives of Asirvad Development Foundation is to foster
the educational needs of the children who show a willingness to study but are prevented from doing
so due to lack of resources. One of the programs undertaken during this year was the financial
support provided to the underprivileged students to pursue their education.
The Student Scholarship Scheme commenced in the year 2010 and continued this year as well.
During 2013-14, ADF provided scholarships to 26 students amounting to Rs 1.30 lakhs. And it is very
heartening to note the exemplary progress that these students had made and their keenness to
pursue their education further with a view to becoming a responsible citizen of the country.
As part of education fostering activities, the Company also funded the set up of an English lab
during the current financial year. In the current scenario, English learning has become a mandatory
requirement and students who lack knowledge of English are always at a disadvantage. In order
29
Seventh Annual Report 2013 - 14
to address, the Company had tied up with a trust called Disha Foundation and provided financial
assistance for setting up 2 English Language Labs at Eureka School, Parameswaramangalam(near
Kalpakkam) and Eureka School, Vembakkam(near Kanchipuram). We hope that this would pave the
way for the enhanced knowledge of the children in these schools and they will be able to face the
challenges of life with skill and confidence.
Improving health care access for those with limited incomes and resources
is one of the fundamental objects of the trust. Our trust facilitates
low-income, uninsured, and underserved to have access to good health
care. The Trust had conducted many health camps, eye camps during the
last couple of years. This year, it was decided to provide assistance to needy
individuals towards their surgery expenses so that they can get back their
lost health. We are glad to inform that we have been able to fund the open
heart surgery expenses of a two and half year child and even gladder to
inform that the child is doing well after the surgery. Such activities provide a
sense of fulfillment to us and enthuse us to work with renewed vigour for the holistic benefit of the
society.
In all these endeavours, we have received the generous and whole-hearted support and assistance
from many individuals, institutions and organizations, both Government and Non-Government, and
we would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to each and every one of them. Though our achievements
may seem small when compared to the immensity and imminence of the tasks we have already
committed ourselves to and the tasks awaiting and clamouring for our attention, we believe in the
philosophy of tiny drops making a mighty ocean.
I would also like to take this opportunity to extend my gratitude to the employees of Asirvad
Microfinance Private Limited, who have been extending their support, financial and non-financial,
in identifying the deserved people, seeking their concerns and updating the Management team and
finally in ensuring that the benefits provided by the trust reach the beneficiaries in a timely manner.
Our trust looks forward to and is geared up for the immense work awaiting us in the field of
social service that uplifts the economically weaker section, awakens the depressed, comforts the
deprived and rehabilitates the displaced. Our trust would continue to work towards the upliftment
of the economically weaker section and is confident of valuable contributions from all concerned in
furthering its objectives of catering to the health, education, science, culture, art, peace, philosophy
and friendship.

Report on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of ASIRVAD MICROFINANCE PRIVATE
LIMITED (“the Company”), which comprise the Balance Sheet as at 31st March , 2014, the Statement
of Profit and Loss and the Cash Flow Statement for the year then ended, and a summary of the
significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.
Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
The Company’s Management is responsible for the preparation of these financial statements that give
a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance and cash flows of the Company in

continue to be applicable in respect of Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 in terms of General
Circular 15/2013 dated 13th September , 2013 of the Ministry of Corporate Affairs) and in accordance
with the accounting principles generally accepted in India. This responsibility includes the design,
implementation and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and presentation
of the financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement,
whether due to fraud and error.
Auditors’ Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We
conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing issued by the Institute of Chartered

and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are
free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and the
disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment,
including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether
due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant
to the Company’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design
audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an
opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the
appropriateness of the accounting policies used and the reasonableness of the accounting estimates
made by the Management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis
for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the
aforesaid financial statements give the information required by the Act in the manner so required
and give a true and fair view in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in India:

Vesting Period:
In the case of the options granted to the Managing Director, 50% of the options vest on completion of
one year and the balance on completion of two years from the date of the grant. In the case of other
employees, the options vest in the following proportion over a three year period in such a manner
that 16.67% vests on completion of one year from date of grant, 41.66% each over the completion of
years two and three.
Exercise Period:
Within five years from the date of vesting.
Method of Settlement:
Equity settled. Cash settlement is at the option of the board.
The fair value of the share has been estimated on the date of the initial grant by an external firm
of consultants based on the audited financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2011. The
valuation was done based upon the weighted average of the per share value arrived at through the
Net Asset Value (NAV) approach and Profit Earning Capacity Method (PECV). The exercise price was
fixed at about a 50% discount to the fair value. The fair value of options, based on the valuation of the
independent valuer as on the date of initial grant i.e. 8 August 2011 is Rs.22.34 per share.
In accordance with the Guidance Note issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India,
the difference between the fair value of Rs.22.34 and the exercise price per share of Rs.11.17 on
options granted will be charged to Profit and Loss account over the vesting period of the options as
employee compensation cost and will be carried forward as Share options outstanding account and
disclosed separately in the Balance Sheet. Accordingly an amount of Rs.1,363,338 (which includes
employee stock option expenses relating to earlier years amounting to Rs.655,866) has been debited

to employee compensation cost and credited to share option outstanding account. As and when the

corresponding amount would be transferred from share options outstanding account to the General

(contd.)
NOTE 1 : SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
a. Nature of the Operations
Asirvad Micro Finance Private Limited (‘the Company’) was incorporated in August 2007.
The Company is engaged in extending micro credit advances to poor women, who are otherwise
unable to access finance from the main stream banking channels. The Company provides small
value collateral free loans up to Rs. 20,000 for a tenor of 12 months / 18 months/ 24 months with
weekly /fortnightly/ monthly repayments. The Company follows the Grameen model with suitable
adoptions using the joint liability framework, where each member of the group guarantees the loan
repayment of the other members of the group.
The Company also uses its branch infrastructure to market products / services to the members of
the self help groups on behalf of other agencies for an agreed fee/ commission.
NOTE 2 – BASIS OF ACCOUNTING AND PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with the Generally
Accepted Accounting Principles in India (Indian GAAP) to comply with the Accounting Standards
notified under Section 211(3C) of the Companies Act, 1956 (“the 1956 Act”) (which continue to be
applicable in respect of Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 (“the 2013 Act”) in terms of General
Circular 15/2013 dated 13 September, 2013 of the Ministry of Corporate Affairs) and the relevant
provisions of the 1956 Act/ 2013 Act as applicable. The financial statements have been prepared on
accrual basis under the historical cost convention. The accounting policies adopted in the preparation
of financial statements are consistent with those followed in the previous year.
The Company follows the prudential norms for income recognition, asset classification and
provisioning as prescribed by the Reserve Bank of India for Systemically Important Non-deposit
taking Non-Banking Finance Companies (NBFC-ND-SI) or more stringent norms as indicated in
Note 2(n) below.
a. Use of Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements requires the Management to make estimates and
assumptions considered in the reported amounts of assets and liabilities (including contingent
liabilities) as of the date of the financial statements and the reported income and expenses during the
reporting period such as provisioning for employee benefits, provisioning for receivables, provisioning
for credit enhancement for assets de-recognized, useful lives of fixed assets, provisioning for taxation
etc. Management believes that the estimates used in the preparation of the financial statements
are prudent and reasonable. Future results could differ due to these estimates and the differences
between the actual results and the estimates are recognised in the periods in which the results are
known / materialise.
b. Fixed Assets and Depreciation
Tangible assets:
Fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation / amortization and impairment losses,
where applicable. The cost of fixed assets comprises its purchase price net of any trade discounts

(contd.)
and rebates, any import duties and other taxes (other than those subsequently recoverable from the
tax authorities), any directly attributable expenditure on making the asset ready for its intended use.
Depreciation on fixed assets is provided on the written down value method basis, pro-rata to the
period of use of the assets at the rates prescribed under Schedule XIV of Companies Act, 1956.

Assets individually costing less than Rs.5,000 each are fully depreciated in the year of capitalisation.
c. Impairment
The carrying values of assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date if there is any indication of
impairment based on internal / external factors. An impairment loss is recognized wherever the
carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the greater
of the asset’s net selling price and value in use. Value in use is arrived at by discounting the future
cash flows to their present value based on an appropriate discount factor. When there is indication
that an impairment loss recognized for an asset in earlier accounting periods no longer exists or may
have decreased, such reversal of impairment loss is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss,
except in case of revalued assets.
d. Investments
Investments which are long term in nature are stated at cost less provision where necessary for
diminution, other than temporary, in the value of investments.
Current investments are carried individually, at the lower of cost and fair value.
e. Receivables under Financing Activity

after netting off

future taxable income will be available against which these can be realised. Deferred tax assets and

balance sheet date for their realisability.

a reliable estimate can be made. Provisions (excluding retirement benefits) are not discounted to
their present value and are determined based on the best estimate required to settle the obligation
at the balance sheet date. These are reviewed at each balance sheet date and adjusted to reflect the
current best estimates. Contingent liabilities are disclosed in the Notes. Contingent assets are not
