The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has canceled the registration of UP’s Margdarshak Financial Services Limited. This registration has been canceled due to non-performing assets (NPAs) and default in repayment to lenders.
Cancelling the registration certificate, RBI said that as of March 31, 2021, the company failed to maintain the minimum regulatory net owned fund of Rs 5 crore and minimum capital adequacy ratio (CAR) of 15 percent prescribed for NBFC-MFIs. Let us tell you that as of March 31, 2021, Margdarshak Financial Services Limited was facing cash flow issues and was defaulting on repayment of Rs 49.27 crore to its lenders.

According to the Central Reserve Bank, the auditor found that there is uncertainty due to the loss (Rs 187 crore) and high net NPA (Rs 82.37 crore), which casts doubt on the company’s ability to continue its business. Apart from this, there was a delay in finalizing the company’s accounts for the financial year 2020-21. It was finalized on October 22, 2021, after about seven months.
