IFMR Investment Managers is an important addition to the IFMR Trust Group. Access to medium and long term funds as well as mezzanine funds has always been a challenge for several high quality originators in the country. In the last few years access to senior debt and short duration debt has been increasing. Partly accelerated by another IFMR Trust Group Company, IFMR Capital, that helped its partners raise nearly Rs.3,504 crores from various investors in the financial year 2013-14 alone. However, access to subordinated tranches and longer term debt so essential for orderly growth of financial intermediaries has remained elusive. This Fund will be followed by other funds focused on retail finance sectors such as affordable housing, small business and micro enterprise finance and used commercial vehicle finance etc. IFMR Investment Managers will leverage on the vast experience within the IFMR Trust Group in working with these sectors. Many of the partners of the IFMR Trust Group companies have reached out for support in helping raise long term and subordinated tranches. With a strong presence of the IFMR Trust Group in this space, IFMR Investment Managers will hit the ground running. We are already in the process of seeking an external Fund Manager rating. In ensuring further transparency, IFMR Investment Managers will also explore getting ratings for Funds managed. We have a long journey ahead and I am sure you will all join me in wishing IFMR Investment Managers all the best for its endeavours. Puneet Gupta Chairperson Through focused funds that seek to address such gaps, we believe IFMR Investment Managers will play an important role in deepening financial access within the country. IFMR Investment Managers has been appointed by IFMR Finance for Freedom Social Venture Fund, acting through its Trustee, SBI Cap Trustee Company Ltd, to act as the Investment Manager for its proposed “IFMR FImpact Investment Fund” focussed on the microfinance sector. The Fund has made an application to SEBI for registration as a Social Venture Fund under Category I of the AIF regulations in March 2014 with a target fund size of Rs.100 crores and is expected to launch post approval.

Future Outlook: The company has started its focus with the microfinance asset class and it has already taken efforts to move into other asset classes like housing finance, SME etc. Even though the investors are risk averse given the underlying factors related to the current economic scenario as well as the underlying asset class, we plan to provide comfort through sponsor commitment which is more than required under regulations. Also, the company will seek independent review of its fund management capabilities through rating from rating agencies on Page 5 the fund management quality and also seeks to avail rating of the fund at an appropriate stage. The comfort level of the Investors in looking at locking-in investment for a medium to long term is linked closely with the Government’s policy action in enabling investments on one hand and outcome of various initiatives to improve economic growth on the other. These will be key determinants to the timelines associated with your Company’s plans for obtaining investor commitments into the fund post its launch. Your Company, however, on receipt of SEBI approval will reach out to many potential investors who are looking at investments in social sector over a medium to long term duration and, in a ‘business as usual’ scenario, expects to go live during the first half of financial year 2014-15.

The Company is a subsidiary of IFMR Trust, which is not a Small and Medium Sized entity (SMC) as defined in the General Instructions in respect of Accounting Standards notified under the Companies Act, 1956. Accordingly, the Company has also been classified as non-SMC and has complied with the accounting standards as applicable to a non - SMC. 2.2 Use of estimates The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles requires the management estimates and assumptions to be made that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities on the date of financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the period. Management believes that the estimates used in 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. 2.3 Employee benefits: During the period from February 17, 2014 to March 31, 2014, the company did not have any employees on rolls. 2.4 Taxes on Income: i) Current Tax: Current tax is determined in accordance with the provisions of the Income Tax Act, 1961 Page 18 Annual Report 2013-14 ii) Deferred Tax: Deferred tax is recognised on timing differences, being the differences between the taxable income and the accounting income that originate in one period and are capable of reversal in one or more subsequent periods. Deferred tax is measured using the tax rates and the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted as at the reporting date. Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all timing differences. Deferred tax assets are recognised for timing differences of items other than unabsorbed depreciation and carry forward losses only to the extent that reasonable certainty exists that sufficient future taxable income will be available against which these can be realised. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if such items relate to taxes on income levied by the same governing tax laws and the Company has a legally enforceable right for such set off. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date for their realisability. 2.5 Provisions and Contingencies: Provisions are recognised only when the Company has a present or legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events for which it is probable that an outflow of economic benefit will be required to settle the transaction and a reliable estimate can be made for the amount of the obligation. Contingent liability is disclosed for (i) Possible obligation which will be confirmed only by future events not wholly within the control of the company or (ii) Present obligation arising from past events where it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation or a reliable estimate of the amount of the obligation cannot be made.
