55	55	NBFCs deliver credit to a wide variety of niche segments, ranging from infrastructure to consumer durables, and have always played a vital role in emerging economies like in India, where they catalyse financial inclusion by reaching out to the underserved segments and supplementing the role of banks.
56	56
57	57	In the last two years, the non-banking sector underwent significant turbulence on account of a few beleaguered NBFCs like Dewan Housing and Finance (DHFL), Infrastructure Leasing & Financial Services (IL&FS), etc. During this time, the liability profile of NBFCs changed gradually as they recorded a rise in the share of borrowings from banks vis-à-vis market instruments.

58	58
59	59	Fresh concerns around asset quality emerged in FY20, owing to the slowdown in the auto and real estate sectors and subdued consumer demand. In response, most NBFCs focused on reducing exposure to low-margin businesses to maintain spreads and adopting a cautious approach to lending – choosing to shore up liquidity instead. The Government and the RBI instituted measures to strengthen governance and risk management frameworks of NBFCs and put in place various channels for the companies to raise funds.

	88	+== Gold ==
	89	+
63	63	As a store of value and as an article inexorably linked to human emotions through generations of social conditioning and collective memory, gold has carved its unique place in the Indian economy. Gold is rarely ever sold, but often pledged to obtain loans, particularly in rural areas, where bank penetration is limited and there is seasonal demand for ready cash that is met increasingly by the NBFCs, who have driven the trade from the clutches of moneylenders to more formal financial channels. More than two-thirds of India’s demand for gold loans is said to emanate from rural communities.

65	65	Specialised gold loan NBFCs like Muthoot Finance occupy a niche in the gold financing business through proactive marketing, sustained geographic expansion, higher branch productivity and strong customer relations.

	95	+**Jewellery demand**
	96	+
69	69	India is one of the largest markets for gold and growing affluence is driving growth in its demand. In the April-June quarter of 2019, Indian jewellery demand gained 12%, to 168.6 tonnes, as compared to 149.9 tonnes in the previous year, largely due to two factors: a higher number of auspicious wedding days compared to 2018 and local gold prices moving lower from the levels seen in February and March 2019. By September, the jewellery demand fell 32% to 101.6 tonnes, on the back of weakened consumer sentiment. The trend continued in the October-December quarter, generating a 17% decline amidst record high gold price levels, domestic economic slowdown and muted rural demand. Weddings and retailer promotions checked the downfall to some extent, but volumes were soft compared to the previous year.

	100	+**Investment**
	101	+
73	73	Of all precious metals, gold is the most popular as investment. Some of the most notable gold investment products include gold-backed Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) and official gold bars and coins. Seen as measure of creditworthiness, cultural and material legacy and social status, gold virtually carries its own weight in India.
74	74
75	75	In the January-March quarter of 2020, bar and coin investment in India fell 17% y-o-y to 28 tonnes – its lowest level for four years. Having fallen prey to volatile local gold prices in January and February, the lockdown imposed in March effectively brought retail investment to a halt. Availability of bars and coins became problematic after the closure of retail shops and bullion dealers. However, interest in digital gold products continued to grow during this time, as it became easier to buy gold via such platforms. This echoed the rise in demand for ETFs in India, which saw relatively sizeable inflows of 4.4 tonnes as fears over the social and economic impact of the virus drove safe-haven flows into gold investment products globally.

	108	+
79	79	The organised sector comprising banks (public, private, small finance and co-operative), NBFCs and Nidhi companies contribute to nearly 35% of the market.7 With more financial institutions increasing their geographic scope and market penetration, a large portion of the underbanked population, who historically relied on lenders within the unorganised sector to fund their needs, is crossing over to the organized sector. This has brought them into the fold of the formal credit system and helped create credit records for the first time, thereby enabling them to obtain loans from organised credit institutions. Against this backdrop, specialised gold loan NBFCs are poised to capture a large share of the customers shifting to the organised sector.
