Industry Overview Over the years, there has been a considerable expansion of the Indian financial market. This has been the result of various financial market reforms undertaken by the regulators, introduction of innovative financial instruments in recent years and the entry of sophisticated domestic and international players. The private sector participation in sectors such as banking, asset management and brokerage has contributed to the development and modernisation of the financial services sector. Introduction of new products and expansion of delivery channels helped non-banking financial services sector, such as equities, derivatives and commodities brokerage, residential mortgage and insurance service witness significant growth rates. The capital markets have also undergone substantial reforms in regulation and supervision, particularly the establishment and empowerment of SEBI. Moreover, screen-based nation-wide trading, dematerialization and electronic transfer of securities, rolling settlement and derivatives trading have improved both the regulatory framework and efficiency of trading and settlement. In India, the primary segment of the capital markets has also been witnessing a surge in activities driven by factors like the strong fundamentals of the Indian economy, a buoyant secondary market, revival of structural reforms by the Government and an investor-friendly framework provided by the market regulator. Financial brokerage market in India is going through sweeping changes with new players looking to be a part of the highly-competitive brokerage market, characterized by dwindling brokerage and exponential growth of brokers and sub-brokers. The fortune of the brokerage industry is closely linked to the performance of the capital market turnover which, in turn, depends on the performance of the equity market and economic conditions. The industry benefited when impressive Indian GDP growth boosted investors confidence, thus resulting in increased participation in the equity markets. Strengths Increased income levels in Tier-II cities. Huge market potential given the under penetration of equities as an investment avenue among Indian investor community. A more flexible cost structure arising from the increasing reliance on the franchisee model. Challenges Increasing cost of regulatory compliances. Greater dominance of the foreign brokerage houses in the institutional broking segment. Protecting brokerage yields and market share in the highly-competitive and fragmented equity brokerage industry. With the industry having passed through rough phases during 2008-2009 and 2011-12, the profitability of the brokerage houses came under intense pressure with the brokerage income getting adversely impacted and the turnover declining amid falling stock prices and average brokerage yield. Many existing players have been forced to reduce operations due to lack of revenues while others are surviving on the basis of consolidation. Rising rate of fixed deposits and other traditional saving instruments due to turbulent Indian market conditions are acting as major challenges for the market. Global uncertainties have also put huge pressure on the market. Competitor Analysis We have compared Glance Finance Limited with its closest peer in the domestic market.
