One Hundred (PP-MLD Single A; Assigned Market Linked Non-Convertible Debenture (NCD) Crore only) Outlook: Stable) Details of instruments/facilities in Annexure-1 Detailed Rationale & Key Rating Drivers The rating assigned to Secured Redeemable Principal Protected – Market Linked Non-Convertible Debenture (NCD) of InCred Financial Services Limited (IFSL) factor in the extensive experience of promoter and the management team, continued healthy capitalization levels and low gearing post infusion of capital in the form of compulsorily convertible preference shares (CCPS) from institutional investors in April, 2019, strong analytics driven system for lending operations, diversified loan portfolio and comfortable liquidity profile post capital infusion and the company’s commitment to maintain three months of debt repayment in the form of cash & liquid investment at all times. The ratings are constrained on account of limited track record of operations; lower than projected scale up of business on account of tightened liquidity conditions in the market resulting in subdued profitability, moderate seasoning of the loan book and moderation in asset quality parameters. Scaling up of business, improvement in profitability continued healthy capitalization levels, liquidity, and maintaining a healthy asset quality with further seasoning of the loan portfolio are the key rating sensitivities. Detailed description of the key rating drivers Key Rating Strengths Experienced promoter and management team The InCred group is promoted by Mr. Bhupinder Singh (Founder and Chief Executive Officer (CEO)) and leads the operations of the company. He has over two decades of experience in financial services industry. Prior to this venture, he was associated with Deutsche Bank as Head of Corporate Finance division and Co-Headed Fixed Income, Equities and Investment Banking divisions for Asia Pacific region.

The company has business heads for various verticals. The SME Finance Business vertical is headed by Mr. Saurabh Jhalaria who has over 18 years of experience of lending to corporate and SMEs at Deutsche Bank. The Education Loans and Two Wheeler Finance verticals are headed by Mr. Prashant Bhosale who has over 25 years of experience and co-founded HDFC Credila and Mr. Prithvi Chandrashekhar (Chief Risk Officer) who leads credit risk management & advanced analytics capabilities has served as the Global Head of Analytics at Experian and Risk Head at Capital One. In addition to this, the group has Mr. Anshu Jain (currently President at Cantor Fitzgerald and former Co-CEO of Deutsche Bank from 2012 to 2015) who has vast experience in the financial services industry on the advisory board. Healthy capitalization levels post infusion by institutional investors and low gearing levels The promoters as an initial equity commitment to build up the business have infused equity capital to the tune of Rs.558 crore during FY17 (refers to period from April 01 to March 31) resulting in tangible net worth base of Rs.584 crore as on March 31, 2019. The company leveraged its equity base to build up its loan portfolio as a result, its overall gearing stood at 2.15 times as on March 31, 2019 as compared to overall gearing of 2.16 times as on March 31, 2018. Due to strong net worth base, the company reported overall capital adequacy ratio (CAR) of 29.6% (Tier I CAR: 29.1%) as on March 31, 2019. Further, during April, 2019, the company raised Compulsorily Convertible Preference Shares (CCPS) of Rs.427 crore from institutional investors like FMO (the Netherlands Development Finance Company), Elavar Equity, Moore Strategic Ventures and Alpha Capital along with its associates which would further support strong capitalization levels of the company. Considering the CCPS, the tangible net worth of the company was over Rs.1,000 crore. Going forward, the company plans to maintain debt to equity ratio of ~ 4 times. Diversified loan portfolio The group has diversified loan portfolio of Rs.1,745.08 crore as on March 31, 2019. The AUM mix consists of Secured School Financing (24.29%), Student Loans (14.54%), Lending to FIs/Escrow backed lending (14.02%), Supply Chain Financing (10.29%) and Unsecured Business Loans (13.84%) under SME lending, Personal Loans (14.49%) and 2-Wheeler Loans (8.53%) under retail lending portfolio. Out of the total loan portfolio, 53.16% was unsecured while the remaining 46.84% is secured. 1Complete definitions of the ratings assigned are available at www.careratings.com and in other CARE publications. Press Release Moderate funding profile The company had diversified funding profile as on March 31, 2019. Of the total borrowings, 54% of the borrowings were in the form of Term loans (from banks: 38% and from other FIs: 14%). Other sources of funding included NCD (37%) and loans repayable on demand (10%). Post September 2018, in line with the industry, the company faced moderation in borrowings due to which, the company reduced its disbursements resulting in lower than expected scale up of operations. The company raised capital to the tune of Rs.427.13 crore by way of CCPS from marquee investors in April, 2019. Comfortable liquidity profile The asset liability profile of the company as on June 30, 2019 had no cumulative negative mismatches. As on July 31, 2019, the company had cumulative debt repayment of Rs.478 crore up to one year against which it had receivables from loan portfolio of Rs.750 crore and cash and cash equivalent of Rs.113 crore. In addition, IFSL had unutilized bank lines of Rs.130 crore. Further, the company as a policy has committed to keep 3 months equivalent debt repayments in the form of cash or liquid or short term debt funds at all times. Key Rating Weakness Limited track record of operations and moderate seasoning of the loan portfolio The company under the new management started business in February 2017 and FY18 was the first full year of operation. The company saw growth in its loan disbursements during H1FY19; however, due to tightening of liquidity conditions post September, 2018, the company saw lower than expected scale up of loan portfolio. The company’s AUM stood at Rs.1,745.08 crore as on March 31, 2019 as compared to Rs.1,232.91 crore as on March 31, 2018.. Although, some of the products have seen a cycle, the overall seasoning of the loan portfolio continues to be moderate and the steady state asset quality of the portfolio is yet to be witnessed. Subdued profitability parameters During FY18, the company had reported PAT of Rs.11.86 crore on total income of Rs.127 crore as per IGAAP. The profitability was impacted by IND AS adjustments resulting in PAT of Rs.0.89 crore from Rs.11.86 crore as per IND AS. During FY19, the company’s AUM increased 41.54% resulting in increased interest income. The company’s borrowings also increased by 22.86%. As a result, during FY19, the company reported PAT of 3.77 crore on total income of Rs.290.76 crore (PAT Margin: 1.30%). Being in the initial stage of operation, the company’s operating cost as a proportion of total income continued to be high at 42% (P.Y.: 62%) for FY19 as the company has put in resources for a larger scale of operations. Post September 2018, due to tightening of overall liquidity conditions, the company saw increase in incremental cost of funds. This coupled with slow disbursements impacted the profitability in spite of stable operating and credit costs. The company reported Net Interest Margin (NIM) of 8.60%, Return on Total Assets (ROTA) of 0.22% and Return on Tangible Net-worth of 0.71% for FY19. Moderation in asset quality parameters As on March 31, 2019, the company reported Gross NPA of 1.82%, Net NPA of 0.70% and Net NPA to Tangible Net worth of 2.10% as compared to Nil Gross NPA as on March 31, 2018. Overall slippages during the year amounted to Rs.31.79 crore majorly due to supply chain financing portfolio which reported slippage of Rs.12.49 crore during FY19. As on June 30, 2019, the company reported Gross NPA of 2.50% and Net NPA of 1.00%. Going forward, as the company further scales up its operations, maintaining asset quality of the loan portfolio will be a key rating sensitivity. Analytical approach: Standalone Strong Liquidity Profile As on July 31, 2019, the company had cumulative debt repayment of Rs.478 crore up to one year against which it had receivables from loan portfolio of Rs.750 crore and cash and cash equivalent of Rs.113 crore. In addition, IFSL had unutilized bank lines of Rs.130 crore. Further, the company as a policy will keep 3 months equivalent debt repayments in the form of cash or liquid or short term debt funds at all time.

    Press Release InCred Financial Services Limited (Formerly known as Visu Leasing Finance Private Limited) January 28, 2020 Ratings Amount Instruments/Facilities Rating1 Rating Action (Rs. crore) 250 CARE A1 Revised from CARE A1+ Commercial Paper Issue (Rs. Two Hundred Fifty Crore only) (A One) (A One Plus) Details of instruments/facilities in Annexure-1 Detailed Rationale & Key Rating Drivers The revision in the short-term rating assigned to the commercial paper issue of Incred Financial Services Limited (IFSL) is driven by moderation in its liquidity buffers, whereby the Company has not been able to maintain the stipulated liquidity in the form of cash & liquid investments covering three months of debt repayments at all times. While IFSL has maintained healthy capitalization, the company has found it difficult to raise fresh borrowing at competitive rates amidst challenging funding scenario for NBFCs/HFCs. The rating continues to factor in extensive experience of IFSL’s promoter and the management team, continued healthy capitalization levels and low gearing, strong analytics driven system for lending operations and diversified loan portfolio. The rating remains constrained on account of limited track record of operations, lower than projected scale up of business on account of adverse funding scenario for the sector, subdued profitability, moderate seasoning of the loan book and moderation in asset quality parameters. Rating Sensitivities Negative factors Any further depletion in liquidity buffers Deterioration in asset quality parameters with Net NPA to Tangible Networth exceeding 10% Further decline in profitability with losses in any of the quarters Positive factors Material improvement in the liquidity profile of the company with diversified borrowing base Sustained improvement in profitability parameters with ROTA of more than 1% Detailed description of the key rating drivers Key Rating Strengths Experienced promoter and management team The InCred group is promoted by Mr.
