About Northern ARC Capital Ltd

Northern Arc Capital Limited was incorporated on March 9, 1989 at Madras, India as `Highland Leasing & Finance Private Limited', a private limited company under the Companies Act, 1956 and was granted a certificate of incorporation by the Registrar of Companies, Tamil Nadu at Chennai (RoC). The name of the Company was changed to `IFMR Capital Finance Private Limited' and a fresh certificate of incorporation dated June 19, 2009 was issued by the RoC. The Company was then converted into a public limited company under the Companies Act, 2013, and consequently, the name of the Company was changed to `IFMR Capital Finance Limited' and a fresh certificate of incorporation dated December 12, 2017 was issued by the RoC. Subsequently, the name of the Company was changed to `Northern Arc Capital Limited' and a fresh certificate of incorporation dated February 20, 2018 was issued by the RoC. The Company is registered with the Reserve Bank of India (the RBI) as a non-banking financial company (NBFC) not accepting public deposits (certificate of registration No. B-07.00430).

The Indian retail credit market is expected to further grow at a CAGR of 17-18% between Fiscals 2024 and 2026 to reach Rs. 100.9 trillion by Fiscal 2026. NBFCs loan outstanding for MSME, MFI, consumer finance, vehicle, affordable housing and agriculture loans are expected to grow at a CAGR of 13-15%, 23-25%, 17-20%, 12-14%, 14-16% and 9-10%, respectively, between Fiscals 2024-2026. Rural areas, which accounted for 47% of GDP, received only 9% of the overall banking credit, as of March 31, 2024, which also shows the vast market opportunity for banks and NBFCs to lend in these areas.
