Can Fin Homes Limited
Financial Company-Housing Finance Company (Reserve Bank) Directions, 2021, for the financial year ended March 31, 2024, the maximum amount that the Company can borrow shall not exceed 12 times of the net owned funds (NOF) as per the last audited Balance Sheet. As on March 31, 2023, the NOF was Rs.3,597 Crore (Rupees Three Thousand Five Hundred Ninety Seven Crore only) (net of Dividend outflow) and hence our borrowing limit shall not exceed Rs.43,161 Crore (Rupees Forty Three Thousand One Hundred Sixty One Crore only) at the end of the year 2023–24. The Borrowing Power of Rs.42,500 Crore (Forty Two Thousand Five Hundred Crore only) sought by the Company will be valid till the outstanding borrowing of the Company reaches the limit approved by the members through this postal ballot. Though the approved limit is higher than the projected book size i.e., approximately Rs.38,100 Crore (Rupees Thirty Eight Thousand One Hundred Crore only) for FY24, the limits will be availed by the Company only based on the actual requirement. However, a higher limit will help the Company to approach various Banks/ Institutions and have sufficient cost effective funds at our disposal and optimize cost of funds.
In view of the above, it is considered desirable to increase the Company’s existing borrowing limit from Rs.35,000 Crore to Rs.42,500 Crore. In order to comply with the requirements under Section 180(1)(c) of the Companies Act, 2013, consent of the Members is sought through the resolution(s) proposed at Item No.2 by way of special resolution to enable the Board of Directors of the Company to borrow money(ies) upto a sum of Rs. 42,500 Crore (Rupees Forty Two Thousand and Five Hundred Crore only), including the temporary loans obtained from Company’s Bankers in the ordinary course of business. Accordingly, the aggregate amounts borrowed, which are outstanding at a given point of time shall not
exceed the limit of Rs. 42,500/- Crore (Rupees Forty Two Thousand and Five Hundred Crore only) as recommended by the Board to the Members for their consent. The borrowings of the Company include term loans, overdraft facilities, issue of non-convertible debentures, commercial papers, acceptance of deposits from public, etc.
All the related documents and registers referred to in the Notice are available for inspection at the Registered Office of the Company.
None of the Directors are related inter-se. No Director or any Key Managerial Personnel or the relatives of the directors or Key Managerial Personnel is in any way concerned or interested, financially or otherwise, in the said resolution, except for borrowings, if any, from Canara Bank, in which case, Shri K Satyanarayana Raju (Managing Director & Chief Executive Officer of Canara Bank), Shri Debashish Mukherjee (Executive Director of Canara Bank) and Shri Amitabh Chatterjee (Deputy General Manager, Canara Bank) shall be deemed to be the interested directors.
The Board of Directors therefore, recommends the passing of the special resolution as set out at Item No.2 of this Notice, for approval of the Members.
