MUTHOOT FINANCE LTD.

SUMMARY:

Muthoot Finance Ltd. is the largest player in the gold loan business in

India. 76% of its business is generated from the 5 southern states in the

Country. The Company has a market share of 19.5% in the organized sector as

on FY10. It is facing major legal hurdle related to Kerala State Money lender

Act which, if implemented will substantially reduce the profitability of the

Company as Kerala accounts to 24% of Companys business. Moreover, there is

a good probability for gold price to get corrected after this prolonged bull run

which may reduce the ticket size of the loans, leading to a drop in growth and

associated profitability. We are quite bullish on the growth potential of this

firm but we would like to avoid the scrip until the abovementioned factors are

sorted out and the scrip is available at a deep discount.
