Positive factors to invest

  • Company is earning good profits in the last 5 years. However, its profits declined in the last 2 years.
  • It offers secure NCD’s where your money is safe. Means in case of any unforeseen thing happening to companies, investors of NCD would still receive the principal and interest. Hence it is safe to invest in such secured NCD’s.
  • Attractive interest rates between 11.50% to 12.25% per annum
  • You can double your money in 70 months (less than 6 years)

Negative factors

  • Capital adequacy ratio as per RBI limit should be 15% and actual as on 31-Mar-2013 is 22.67% which is the outside RBI limit.
  • Loans on gold ornaments are riskier. Decline in gold prices (which happened a few months back), can pose high risk to such business.
  • Increase in NPA’s for the year ending Mar-2013 is a major concern.
