reported tax rate of over 50%.

Yield on advances improved by 40 basis points YoY to 14.3% in the first quarter. Cost
of funds was down by 50 basis points YoY to 9.8%, resulting in expansion in our
spreads to 4.5% and net interest margins to 5.8% during the first quarter. We raised Rs 4
billion in the first quarter at incremental cost of funds of 8.6%. This compared with our
average cost of funds of 9.8% and we expect the average cost of funds to trend lower
over the next three quarters on top of the 50-basis point saving that you’ve seen in the
first quarter.

Our loan book for this business stood at Rs 36.8 billion at the end of the first quarter.
Disbursements are very muted at Rs 238 million. New book sourced from April 2018

87% and our 1+ DPD stands at 9%. We further enhanced provisioning in Q1 by Rs 130
million, considering a potential COVID-19 impact. As a result, provision coverage is up
to 87%. Our total COVID related provisions stands at Rs 210 million on a Rs 36.8
billion book as of June end.

Our OPEX is down to Rs 210 million for the first quarter, which is 27% below the highs
and as a result our cost to income ratio is now down to 36%. We provided morat facility

total quoted, equity investment, including unrealized gain stood at Rs 12.7 billion as of

Rs 18.6 billion.

Outlook: To sum up, the capital market business which is our oldest business and our
cash cow has achieved new highs on various parameters including market share profits
and continues to benefit from industry consolidation and led by our knowledge driven
digital offerings. Our asset management business is likely to gain from strong product
performance and its niche positioning. The home finance business legacy issues are
behind with incremental focus on profitable growth. We remain excited about the
headroom to grow and the ability to generate free cash flows by each of our existing
business.

Q&A

On the broking side, what is leading to the surge in retail participation, we’ve seen
record demat accounts being opened in the system, and we’ve seen retail
participation almost touching 70% in terms of contribution to cash volume. What
is driving this and is this sustainable at a time mutual funds are seeing muted
inflows? Also you’ve mentioned in the PPT, you are looking at expanding in South
and North market. What is the game plan there, what is our market share, what is
the room for growth, if you could give some sense on the broking business?

The retail volumes definitely moved up sharply in this quarter. The retail volume is the
function of the volatility in the market. It seems that current volatility in the market is
led by the day traders. Delivery volumes also is a function of the action on the small and
mid-cap; serious fall and then we saw a good amount of recovery. Now it’s very difficult
to say whether these volume exploits would keep on happening. But, this digital and the
technology access to the market especially in lockdown period has pushed huge number
of investors, who were inactive into active mode and a lot of new first-time investors are
coming into the market. Because, the debt, real estate and all other alternative asset
classes are not doing well. Globally, the technology led market volumes on retail side
has gone up drastically. We are in line with the global trend. Short term, I don’t know
but in long term I see structural changes, the way broking business is happening. To
exploit the further benefit, we are also expanding into new footprint where we have
lesser branches. We are also expanding through new branches, which had become weak,
new employees and new customers are coming to us, especially from other struggling
players.

We have got a huge number of customers; where every customer is mapped to an


advisor. Because of very strong and advisory capabilities, as well as the best of the
technology, we call ourselves the best in terms of capability from the phygital
perspective. Even the smaller client, who comes with Rs 10,000- 20,000 of margin, is
also mapped to an advisor. So, because of very strong research and advisory capabilities
and best of the technology, we have a unique model on broking side.

And if you could comment on the North and South, we are looking to expand
market share. What is the possible headroom for growth?

We have seen the market share moving up and we not only look at the market share, but
we also look at the revenue-based market share. So today, thanks to many players who
are just pushing in new client’s acquisition, despite of the fact that whether the client is
giving revenue or not. We are very revenue focused and of course we don’t have a very
strong presence, but the size of opportunity we see is very large, because in west we
9
have very large penetration in terms of the outlets. Also in south we are very strong. We
are now expanding aggressively through our own branches in North.

And secondly, on the AMC business, if I look at some of the listed companies with
there is a huge pent up operating profitability. At what scale does AMC business
start to get a 35, 40 bps EBITDA margin and where we are in that. At what scale
does that happen, and the last thing was how much money we spent on buy back
till now?

On the AMC side, if you see our cost have largely been frozen, to about Rs 23-24 crore
a quarter. Last year our PAT yield was about 40 basis. Now what happened in this
quarter of course, the average AUMs have been lower and the cost was flattish. We have
already stated that we are very close to our highest AUM. Once we are around that,
we’ll see the improvements happening in the overall PAT margin and EBITDA margin.
And coming to the question on the buyback, we have spent about Rs 10 crore till date on
that. But however, as of now the market price has already shot up. Our maximum
buyback price is Rs 650 and that is the reason where we are unable to buyback now, but
in case if we get an opportunity, we still have three months of window to buy back by
30th September to close this.

Yes, and just to answer your question on the AMC business, Prakash our EBITDA
margins for the quarter is at 32%. Now, what you have ended up seeing is that, the June
average AUM was down very sharply, although the markets made their lows on 23rd of
March and then recovered during the June quarter, but the average AUM is substantially
lower. While in our case, unlike a lot of other listed companies where they sharply cut
back on expenses particularly, brand building expenses are cut back in expenditure but
not proportionately. The sharp fall in the AUM quarter-on-quarter led by the market
disruption with sticky cost structure has led to this fall in the EBITDA margins. It may
not be appropriate to look at this perspective towards the AUM, because as you may
have noticed the share of passive in the total AUM has gone up on a year-on-year basis
meaningfully to almost 7-8% and there obviously the bps yield right from top line to
bottom line is lower. If you look at the EBITDA margin, then you would see that with
recovery in the market.

First can you talk a little bit about the regulatory changes which are being
implemented in broking and what sort of an impact can this have on our business.
From your perspective, what is the regulator trying to achieve over here?

On the margining side, what we have seen is a couple of changes. So, what they have
come up with is on the changes in the upfront margin; in terms of intraday position, the
client has to bring the upfront margin. So, that is coming in a phased manner starting
10
December 20 till September 2021 and today, what is happening is that there is an
upfront margin on the intraday which is in effect is funded by a broker. But that is
something which the regulator wants the client to bring in. So, that is something we
would see some impact on it on the intraday mainly on the weekly or monthly F&O
expiry days, as of now. These positions are intraday positions; so there is no end of the
day margin which is deployed at all. The regulatory representations have been made, but
nevertheless, even if that has to impact, it can come on the expiry days and for that also
what is being talked in the industry is that, margin funding may come into play to fund
that. That is what it is as far as the overall upfront margin on the intraday is concerned
and on the upfront margin on the cash, just a couple of days back already it has been
relaxed because earlier it was VAR margin but now they have cut it down to 20% or
VAR margin whichever is lower. That is the positive move as far as the cash margin
norms are concerned.

Just on the derivatives part. What percentage of our F&O turnover would be this
intraday trading?

I don’t have that exact number, but as an overall proportion to our Retail broking top
line if I have to see, it could be about 5-6 %

And you said that the margin funding book can be used to fund the intraday
margin requirements, then also they would need to give you some collateral. How
would that work?

Intradays are not generally having margins (collateral) because what you have is your
margins (collaterals) on the end of the day position, but on an intraday basis the broker
meets the margin requirements. So, margin funding book would be similar sort of a line.

Okay and on the cash margin side, I believe it’s just been deferred till 1st
September? But after 1st September it will be VAR margin or after September it
will be 20%?

Yes, that’s right, it is effective from 1st September. After 1st September it will be 20%
maximum cap margin or VAR margin whichever is lower.

The change was earlier introduced from January 1, where it was only reporting of the
margin and no penalty, after September 1 there will be penalty if there is any failure to
collect that 20% margin or VAR margin whichever is lower.

But sir all those other restrictions on BTST, I was reading somewhere that
securities need to come into your account only then you can sell them, and those
sorts of rules, is that still applicable?

11
Yes, those are all applicable.

So, all will be applicable right and it’s only a deferment by a month. That should
have an impact on the cash volume side I suppose?

No, if you see cash margins are now already collected by broker because it is applicable
since January. Reporting is happening daily in terms of the overall cash margin that is
collected. That is already there and now what has come is that, they have implemented
the penalty provisions if that is not there. We have already implemented that and now
what we realize is that even if the VAR margin was 25%, then you still have to collect a
20%. That is the relaxation which has been provided two days back.

Okay. Maybe, I’ll have a more detailed discussion with you offline. On the
distribution side, what has been the net sales in this quarter?

That is Rs 150 crores.

So, net new sales were about Rs 1.6 million?

Yes.

And, on the AMC side, and more on the wealth side actually, SEBI had proposed a
new rule where clients must make a choice either to go by the distribution route or
through the advisory route. Because of all this, because of the COVID situation,
things had been postponed. Where does this stand right now, how much of all these
new regulations have been implemented or deferred, can you give us an update on
that?

Our model, Madhukar, is mostly on the lines of being a broker dealer rather than an RIA
Some of the other firms, larger firms are trying to migrate towards the advisory model.
But we are sticking to our earlier old models and the other thing is that banks have
certain challenges to make the choices, but as I said, banks and larger wealth
management have to do this balancing act. At our end, there is really no impact of this
and we continue to focus on being a broker dealer.

Even on the wealth management side, you will not take up the RIA model, you will
continue to be on a distribution model?

Our current model Madhukar, you are aware is entirely distribution, right?

As far as migrating is concerned, any of this is not happening, is not planned. And for
incremental business, all the options are open, but please bear in mind that our wealth
business is not a family office positioning business; we have much more granular, large
number of clients with lower AUM. As of today, we have a strong family office
12
offering, this is unlikely to be relevant.

Understood sir. And on the PMS side, direct PMS have those rules been
implemented. They were brought out in January. Have they been deferred?

Yes, they have been deferred. There is still some headroom available from now till 30th
of September, assuming that there is no change in that timeline again.

Got it. Just one last question, on the housing finance there was some reinstatement
of tax assets. What is that exactly can you please explain that?

Yes, what has happened is that, in housing finance we have now moved to the new tax
regime from 35% to 25%. In this current financial year, by virtue of that, we had an
opening deferred tax asset, which had to be written down.

Sir, couple of questions. One is, if I see the distribution AUM and wealth
management AUM, both on a quarterly perspective have gone up, but the income
has gone down Q-o-Q, can you give some thoughts about it, what’s happening over
there?

If you see that it is largely in line with the reduction in the average asset. The bulk of
correction happened in the March month and in our wealth and distribution AUMs about
60% of these are equity assets. So, by virtue of that, our average AUM on a trail basis
continues to be lower. And that is one of the reason. We have a very strong net sales in
our wealth business which is at the multi quarter high but despite that, the average
AUMs have been lower and slightly the shift is more towards the debt assets in Q1. That
is also one of the reasons where there is a marginal impact on yield asset.

Okay, so it’s basically the AUM correction as well as shift of assets, but if I may ask
quarter-on-quarter basis, your new sales in both the distribution as well as wealth
management have gone up?

Yes, in wealth management it is at multi quarter high, it is about Rs 8 billion net sales
and in distribution it is Rs 1.5 billion.

And what is leading these Rs 8 billion sir, is its new client acquisitions?

It is a combination of new client addition as well as higher cross sell of fixed income to
the existing client base.

And sir second question is, you said that in the month of July, you are back to pre
COVID level in terms of AUM, clearly Nifty is not over there. Is it fair to say that
you guys have gained market share or is it?

13
No, that is not correct. Our market share is stable, we have not seen a gain but one of the
contributors to this is our successful launch of the S&P 500 product.

So, your pre COVID level is because of this passive fund launch?

Aside of the strong uptick in the NAV, which is almost back to the pre COVID level, so
it’s a combination of both of these factors.

Understood. Sir one just small clarification on the VAR margin to 20% whichever
is lower, which you were talking about, that effectively means that the intraday
leverage now is only 5x right, versus earlier in intraday cash segment being
provided in multiples of five. Now it is restricted to 5x right, that’s a fair
understanding?

No, this is for the end of the day margin, this 20%. Intraday continues to be based on
your overall risk policy.

Then sir from a cash ADTO perspective and I’m just trying to understand this a
bit more. The latest trends which we see is, there will be no impact on intraday
cash volumes despite these margins coming in. My understanding was that now for
taking intraday position your leverage is restricted to 5x versus earlier being 10,
15x?

Yes, those intraday there is a separate circular which I discussed just back in answering
that. So, that is already getting implemented from December 1, till Sep 21 in a phased
manner. Whereas on the end of the day margins for the cash segment it is at 20% or
VAR margin whichever is low, that is the implication.

That end of the day when you say is for delivery right or BTST, in a way BTST if I
may put it?

That’s right.

Okay. And sir in your view how much would be industry ADTO shrink because,
see ultimately even in derivatives expiry trading as you said was highest in terms of
ADTO. And in a year’s time that will become zero, the leverage will be reduced to a
massive extent. In your view the shrinkage in ADTO how much can that be for
both the segment’s if at all, if you can throw some light?

As of now it’s difficult to say that, but let’s see how it gets implemented and we can get
on it once more.

Okay to your point of saying that broker can actually give a margin funding my
understanding was that the entire rule was such that the broker cannot give
14
margin funding right. It was in a way to curb these excessive leverages which
happens on expiry day. Ultimately, the broker’s balance sheet was funding that,
now, individual banks fund that. So, to that extent there will be a clear reduction?

I said that margin funding is through the NBFC arm not through the broking arm.

Okay, you are using that route to bypass that?

Yes. Margin funding is even prevalent today. We also do F&O margin funding through
the NBFC.

And sir in your view, do discount brokers give this kind of NBFC arm tie up for
getting expiry day leverage?

It’s difficult to comment as of now. We are just evaluating this whole thing, as I said,
and basis that we would take a call. Representation has already happened to the SEBI in
this respect, so you wait and watch how things come up there. And then we would take a
call in terms of what is happening.

Sir my first question is on the AMC side, if I see revenue yield for mutual funds for
last few quarters, it’s constantly declining. I understand that this quarter the base
is lower, the starting base and then market moved up, but if you can give some
guidance what should be the stable yield for the mutual fund and overall AMC?

Multiple regulatory changes have impacted the TERs and yields over the course of the
last one and a half years’ time. On a like-to-like basis for active equities and for passive
equities, we see yields to be stable.

Okay, and secondly out of the growth in both mutual fund and PMS, how much it
comes from the MTM gains and how much from net new money. Is the net new
money positive, as we are seeing lower equity inflows across the industry. How
much has come from this net new money and what is the outlook on your net new
flow for this year?

Our net new money is Rs 3.2 billion during the quarter. Rest is all on account of the
mark-to-market.

As far as the forward looking statement, what is the expectation of flows in the current
year, that’d be very tough, as you are aware that the gross sales numbers have come
down quite substantially in the recent past. And in fact, after a very, very long time,
we’ve seen net outflows from the industry. At this point in time, all I can tell you is that,
in the past, when we’ve seen in inflows in equities, the strong inflow trend has continued
for a very long period of time. And if there is a trend of outflow that you’ve seen just

15
recently, to assume that may get over in a hurry in one month or two months’ time may
also be incorrect. So, it is neither a forecast that the outflows will continue nor it is a
forecast that things will just come back strongly. We have to wait and watch. This is not
a year where anybody could have clarity of what will be my net sales in the current year.

Yes, actually my question is more to understand from the view that the market is
moving up, but we are seeing more outflows with our subdued inflows. What are
the client behavior or client feedback, you’re getting. Why they are having these
outflows, any insights on that?

Yes, there is a lot of chatter that you will hear on media with distributors that, the rally is
disconnected from the fundamentals and hence it’s a good time to take profit. Book
profits and that is what in turn retail investors are following. This is profit booking.
Because of lack of conviction, whether this big rally that we’ve seen is sustainable is
causing outflows and importantly also causing gross sales to continue to come down.
And, additional contribution is rise in redemptions, effectively that is the number down
to a negative.

Understood. Sir, then thirdly, on the earlier questions on margin which is currently
to be kept under 20% or VAR whichever is lower, what is the margin currently
being provided?

In cash, the VAR margin collection has already been started off. As I said before, that
from 1st January, there was already reporting of that and we continue to collect the VAR
margins at the applicable rates.

Intraday margins, in general, as of now funded are by the broker. This is the overall
delivery stocks in the client’s bucket, basis that they are funded and that is how the norm
has been.

Sir just wanted to understand this intraday margin regulation from December
onwards. Now, effectively the problem is providing financing to these customers,
right?

Yes, that’s right.

And therefore NBFCs or banks is what they have to reach out to for getting the
funding and do you expect volumes to shrink, and there can be consolidation in the
industry and large brokers like yourself stand to gain in?

As answered in my past questions, that there have been representations made in that
respect, because there is no end of the day margin and even this is applicable in a phased
manner. Suddenly there will be some initial impact which will come but as the market is
16
good from a longer-term perspective, it will strengthen the overall framework and one
would look at how the funding happens to the NBFCs.

And the other question I want to ask you is, for the intraday business you cannot
provide funding through the broking business is it regulatory disallowed?

No, presently brokers can provide the intraday funding because client is not funding
back effectively. So that is already permitted, but now what they brought is, client has to
fund the portion of that.

I had a question on home finance. The asset quality, slide number #30. For June 20
we have written that 26% of our total customers are under moratorium and the
chart below that for the collection efficiency trend we are saying that 85% is our
collection efficiency for June month. And that also includes the moratorium. Is the
difference between volume and value or anything more than that?

No, it is not. It’s between one EMI and multiple EMIs. The morat number tells you what
proportion of the customers have paid the EMI for the month of June. And the next
number shows you that if there is a customer who has paid two EMI, then that will take
the collection efficiency for that customer to more than 100% for the month.

If you have Rs.10,000 EMI due for the month and you have paid Rs 20,000 because you
had two EMIs due, then the collection efficiency formula is the cash that I have received
in the current month divided by the cash that is due for the current month. If I have Rs
35 crores to be collected from the customers and if they paid me 85% of Rs 35 crores,
then 85% becomes my collection efficiency but, only 74% of those customers may have
paid me, some may have paid me more than one EMI.

Okay, by loan value is it fair to assume that more than 20% is under moratorium,
by this collection efficiency also due because of any EMI which has been from the
previous point. So, that also increases at the numerator?

You take the morat percentage on value and volume to be similar for the timing but
collection efficiency includes additional EMI paid beyond the current month due,
because the customer may have availed of morat or let’s say the month of March, April,
May and June. Then my collection executive goes there, and he realizes the grave
impact of moratorium in terms of the increase in the loan tenure. He chooses to pay June
and May EMI this month which goes into the collection efficiency.

Correct, this is the way. And the second question that I had was, that the leverage
in home finance has gone down. Is this only because of the drop in AUM or there
has been some capital infusion as well?

17
In FY20, there was no capital infusion, we had the capital infusion in FY19 of Rs 200
crores and if you see our leverage has already gone down in FY20 itself. And further,
during this quarter the net leverage levels remain same as in Q4 FY20, though the cash
levels have increased drastically.

Okay. So, location is like the strategy around home finance. How are we looking at
this business, do we intend to grow that business faster than the company or are
there any plans in terms of infusing further capital in that business or how are we
looking at that business in the current scenario?

See right now there is no plan to increase any capital further because our leverage is
very, very low. Slowly and gradually we are increasing the disbursement relating after
this shutdown. So, month-on-month, it will be the second month where we will increase
our disbursement but with very tighter risk management where most of the disbursement
is happening only on documented salary which is a less risky and predictable stuff. In a
calibrated way, we are increasing the disbursements, we are also having branches where
we think we can create good business. The whole effort is just to move back to the
calibrated growth path in terms of overall disbursements and collection in any case, I
think month-on-month efficiency is very, very high.

Do you plan to lend only to salaried incrementally?

Yes, our target is about 75% to documented salary and rest to those segments which are
not impacted by COVID.

If, I can just add the same distribution network, which is doing disbursements of Rs 20
crores right now, 40 months back in March 17 had done a disbursement of Rs 300
crores, but we have obviously tightened our credit policy substantially. But I’ll give you
a perspective that the same number of branches actually had disbursed in a single month
Rs 300 crore.

Sir, can you explain your market share gains in the broking segment what has led
to this?

We have market share increase on both cash and F&O side of our business and even our
mix is also improved towards the cash budget during the quarter. So, both of these have
led to the overall increase.

Yes, but what is leading to this market share gains are the question, is it whom are
you gaining from or?

It is due to the delivery segment and as we have already stated that we have been
continuously expanding this business, whether through digital, whether through
18
acquiring small broking houses and the overall opportunity of consolidation available in
the market and we’ve seen that benefit because we’ve actually had about 500 employees
in this business recently and I have expanded further branch count as well and that is
leading to the overall enhancement of the network and increase in the market share gains
as well for us.

And you see the strength?

Sorry, if I can add the structural trend of, if you look in the last one year, the top 10
brokers are anyways continuously gaining market share. Again, there are five odds out
of those top 10 which are also gaining market share within the top 10. We are a part of
those set of brokers who are gaining market share. In fact, that is what has been driving
us to, even before this huge surge in the retail volumes that you’ve seen in the course of
the last six months. The whole plan to substantially augment the sales team as well as
the physical branch network we have, we are going slow right now but we have set out
to more than double our branch network in the current year. We are actually going a
little slower on that plan, given the COVID situation, but, geographically our presence
has still a lot of headroom to grow as we’ve put in our presentation. Our penetration if
you divide the country into North, East, West, South, the market share that you see of
3% would be much higher in West, much lower in North, lower in South as well and so
the headroom for us to take our market share up in West itself is there. Firstly, let’s say
if you look at all the states in the West, our market share in Gujarat would be much
lower than Maharashtra. There’s a lot of headroom to open up branches in various
locations that we’re not even present today. And this applies even more for North India
and South India. Structurally, the trend towards top 10, within that towards the bigger
five, continuous improvement in the research offering, in the advisory offering, in the
technology capabilities, there are lot of levers where we see the strength of big
becoming bigger will be continuing. There’s another trend that 92% of all instrumental
business in the last decade has been done by the top 10 brokers. But the market share of
top 10 brokers is not 92%.

Okay. That’s good to hear and do you see this trend continuing of market share
gains in the next couple of quarters also given that you have added 500 employees?

There is no prediction, we make of a month-on-month or a quarter-on-quarter trend. But


if you see, these investments are being made to grow the salience in the market. If my
physical geographical salience is going to be up, and the product is powerful, the
offering is great, the brand name is strong, we see no reason why I can’t open a newer
branch in Punjab or in Gujarat or in Tamil Nadu. I will not reach that market share in the
next three years’ time, it may take time, but it will definitely add to my market share in a

19
geography where I was zero, and will actually mean that my overall market share should
go. Quarter-on-quarter is very tough to predict.

Just to add what Navin said, we always look at the revenue market share rather than the
turnover market share. The whole effort is how do we acquire new customers, how do
we add to the distribution and make sure that yield is also very high. So, the focus is on
revenue, not only on market share or not even on new customers added. You can add
new customers by discounting as well as without any volume being contributed.

Absolutely right sir. Sir and one more point if I can, the distribution penetration
that seems to have flattened out in the last three, four years, in FY17 it was 14 and
in quarter one of 21, it’s around 15 went up to 16. Is there a challenge being faced
by us, because you also have highlighted in the past that there is significant
headroom to grow over years. What is stopping us sir, why is this penetration rates
not increasing?

Motilal I’ll just answer that. In the last nine months, this AUM does not include the
insurance cross sell. We started the process of insurance cross sell in the second half of
FY20 and on a month-on-month basis, we’ve seen very, very strong traction in the
insurance. Now that comes as a part of the distribution income but does not come as a
part of the AUM. There are different points in time where the focus is different. Right
now, anyway the industry is facing, as far as the equity are concerned, headwinds. It’s
best to keep your network engaged and strategically we wanted to make this addition
anyways. So, while it is continuing to add to the top line, it is not adding to the AUM,
because that is not an AUM product for us.

And to even add, earlier, we used to calculate the same ratio close to 11 lakh, 12 lakh,
clients but in last four, five months, we have seen almost like 3, 4 lakhs clients getting
added, that is also factoring.

And if I may ask sir, obviously there’s been a leadership change at the AMC level,
any change in this thought process strategy or the strategy remains the same?

There is no change in the strategy at all.

I had one question on this negative oil price settlement provision that we have
made. There is a disclosure in the annual report, and we have provided entirely for
it in Q1. Any update in terms of where that cases in terms of arbitration and what
recovery can we expect and any outlook on timeline?

We are very hopeful of the recovery because client has paying capability. There are two
legal battles which we are fighting, one is, we have filed against the cheques, the way

20
we feel they have done is really not acceptable legally. And second thing is, we also
have filed against the client in the court where we have got the positive order on
securing the cheques, not directly, but the court has asked them not to sell any assets, not
to dispose of any assets till the arbitration happens and we have got also date for the
arbitration. We are hoping that in the next couple of months, the arbitration should come
and then we can go back to the court about the assets against the client and then let’s see
what happens in the case against the MCX. And I’m quite hopeful that either we get the
money from MCX or we’ll get the money from the client.

And sir, this question is for Mr. Shalibhadra. Sir, you have highlighted that you are
considering various options in terms of the new regulatory changes. So, just wanted
to check, is there a scenario where you are considering, cutting down some of your
broking yields because now the clients would have to put in higher margins. That
has some costs. So, would you consider reducing your yields to accommodate the
higher margin requirement from clients?

It’s too early to come to any conclusion about the pricing because pricing is also decided
by the market and finally what call the regulators take. There is a lot of review
happening at those levels. But, we have seen whenever any change happens, even if
regulatory, the market gets adjusted so, either the clients arrange the money or
somewhere the NBFC books can confront that margins.

Okay. And sir finally given the current environment, a lot of businesses which have
long term good prospects, could have some opportunity from a private equity
perspective and in that context are we looking to raise some new funds on the
business excellence fund specifically?

We have a very large fundraise that we had done- Rs 24 billion, which is deployed to the
tune of 60%. We have got dry powder of almost Rs 1000 crores. We made some
deployment during the current quarter, we have not completed the transaction, we’ve not
made the announcement. But we are very excited about the prospects of making those
investments over the course of the next six to nine months. Fresh capital raising is not on
the cards till we cross 80% deployment of this fund, another 25% deployment or about
$100 million of deployment is hopefully likely to happen in the next 12 months’ time,
which is a point in time that IBEF-4 will be concealed.

I have two questions on the broking business. What kind of client deposit you
would have in terms of cash and cash equivalent and what interest bearing or
interest income the broking business would have out of this?

21
We have client deposits which are kept with us in the form of liquid funds, fixed
deposits or client cash. And they are equivalently placed either in the exchanges or in
the client bank account and that is kept in as a margin for risk positions in the exchange.
That is one part of the thing and in terms of the overall interest charges, if there is a
margin shortfall, or if there is a client debit that remains outstanding due to the either
T+5 funding or margin funding, we charge interest on that.

What interest income we would have had on that?

We have given our book sizes, we have a margin funding book size of Rs 5.4 billion and
further we have T+5 book size of about Rs 6 billion which is close so about Rs 1100
crores of debit on which there is an interest income that we charged.

There was some concern in the media that the brokers can’t earn interest on the
client money, which is in the form of the float. Is there any legal provision and does
that change the earnings of the company? How should I understand that, I’m just
struggling with that?

As far as the regulatory framework is concerned, the money has to be segregated and
kept in the client’s bank or if the positions are there, then they have to be kept in the
exchanges. This position remains intact. As far as the client money, they get deployed in
the exchanges or remains with the bank, there is no yield of money on that.

In a nutshell, Manish there is no float income, but the capital required due to increase in
margining requirement is funded by the client and that funding is something which also
reduces the overall risk of how the business is being run, which is also the regulatory
objective. And whatever interest income you see that we make is effectively a fund-
based activity for us where there is borrowing as we’ve articulated in the past, we don’t
lend out of our equity funds. There is borrowing and against that there is lending so
there’s a spread that you earn on that.

Sure. And my other question will be on some news that said there can be indirect
trade through the exchange for the clients. Is there any merit in that and has it
been done anywhere, and what will be your position here?

I don’t see any precedent of that, don’t have a view whether it will happen in India, we
see there are a lot of challenges to roll out something like this. So, we don’t have any
comment on that. There is no precedent of this anyway.

Sure. And my last question will be what percentage of our broking trade will be
happening online for us, as a percentage of our total volume?

Yes, as of June 56% of trades are happening through online channels. Value could be
22
around 40%.

Couple of quick clarifications on the home finance business. First one is, could you
talk about if you have used the TLTRO or other refinance facilities that were made
available in the first quarter and what would be the quantum and the cost of funds
there, and the second question is, if you could also indicate the collection trends in
the month of July and if you’ve seen substantial improvement versus June?

Yes, sure. On the housing finance borrowings, we have participated in the TLTRO as
well as the NHB refinance and we’ve got both of these financing in Q1. While we have
stated that in Q1, we’ve already raised Rs 4 billion of borrowings, that’s on account of
the TLTRO plus the NHB refinance put together. We have already got money there,
which is Rs 3 billion out of these two windows. And coming to the second question on
the July numbers, they have been bettering than the overall June numbers and we are
seeing these number coming down for us materially.

Just to be specific the July collection is high by 4% then June.

Okay. And just as an extension in that context, how do you see the current level of
provisioning on the book and any outlook on the credit cost line for the year?

We had already started providing for the same since Q4 FY20 itself where we had
already done Rs 8 crores of provisioning and further during this quarter, we have done
Rs 13 crores of extra provisioning. We have assumed a higher probability of default as
per the ECL model. We would also content to further go on providing provision over
next two quarters.

Thank you. Ladies and gentlemen, due to time constraint that was the last question.
I now hand the conference over to Mr. Shalibhadra Shah for closing comments.

On behalf of Motilal Oswal Financial Services, I would like to thank every participant
for attending the Q1 FY21 con-call. In case of any further queries, please do get in touch
with me or our Investor Relations desk. Thank you, have a great day and take care, bye.
