weaknesses, opportunities, and threats involved in a project or in a business venture. A

it to:

an excellent way to organize information you've gathered from studies.
2.12 Strengths:
25

Experienced and stable management team Strong relationships with public,
private as well as foreign banks, institutions and investors.
Managerial depth
The promoters of India Infoline individually are first-generation Indian
entrepreneurs with meritorious academic backgrounds and impeccable
professional careers. For Example: Nirmal Jain, Chairman, is a rank holder

Mr. R. Venkataraman, Managing Director, is an Electronics Engineer from IIT

Well capitalized: The Group has net worth of around Rs20 billion. The company
has a significantly unutilized capacity to leverage.
Urban and Rural Investors: India Infoline has both urban and rural presence across
India. The competitors are struggling still to tap the rural market in which India
Infoline already has made themselves visible.

Weakness:
High risk exposure as seen by conservative population
People are still reluctant to trust share market products.
26

Lack of strategic management system in India Infoline which can hamper the
future long term decision making process.
Any slowdown in share market growth may have a negative impact on the
business of India Infoline
There are less efforts from the company side to make the inactive clients reactive
again.
2.13 Opportunity:
NEW MARKETS: New markets allow India Infoline to expand their business and
diversify their portfolio of products and services.
Growing market: India is an emerging country which makes a lot of scope of a
company like India Infoline
Growing rural market: Even the rural market are now showing interest in share
market, insurance and various other products of India Infoline which is a good
news for the company.
Innovation: India Infoline has successfully executed a number of innovative and
disruptive ideas in the financial services industry to rise from a start-up to
leadership position in less than two decades and is continuing to do the same.
Threat:
Government regulations: Changes in government rules and regulations from time to
time basis can negatively effects all the NBFCs.
Unfavorable economic condition: India is seeing a lot of fluctuation in the share
market which is not attracting the investors the way it should have.
Increasing costs: Increasing costs of all the goods and services are leaving less
money in the hands of the investors which is making the situation more difficult for
India Infoline.
27

New competitions from domestic and foreign firms.
SWOT Analysis Model
The 7s McKinsey Model
Strategy: India Infoline strategies are generally top management decision normally taken
after a lot of brainstorming session including all the functional manager. Thus, strategy is
designed to transform the firm from the present position to the new position described by
objectives, subject to constraints of the capabilities or the potential.
Structure: Business needs to be organised in a specific form of shape that is generally
referred to as organisational structure. India Infoline have been structured in a
hierarchical way with several divisions and departments, each responsible for a specific
task such as human resources management, production or marketing. Many layers of
management controlled the operations, with each answerable to the upper layer of
management. Although this is normally used organisational structure in India Infoline, the
recent trend is increasingly towards a flat structure where the work is done in teams of
specialists rather than fixed departments. The idea is to make the organisation more
flexible.
Style: It represents the way the company is managed by top-level managers, how they
interact, what actions do they take and their symbolic value. In other words, it is the
management style of companys leaders. In India Infoline Laissez Faire leadership style is
followed.
Systems: Every organisation has some systems or internal processes to support and
implement the strategy and run day-to-day affairs. In India Infoline, the company follow a
particular process for recruitment. The processes are normally strictly followed and are
designed to achieve maximum effectiveness. Traditionally the organisations have been
following a bureaucratic-style process model where most decisions are taken at the higher
28

management level and there are various and sometimes unnecessary requirements for a
specific decision to be taken. Increasingly, the company is simplifying and modernising
their process by innovation and use of new technology to make the decision-making
process quicker. Special emphasis is on the customers with the intention to make the
processes that involve customers as user friendly as possible.
Style/Culture: Like all organisations have their own distinct culture and management
style, India Infoline is no different. Culture includes the dominant values, beliefs and
norms which develop over time. In India Infoline Collaborate Work Culture is adopted.
Initially in India Infoline, the military style of management and culture where strict
adherence to the upper management and procedures was expected from the lower-rank
employees. However, now there have been extensive efforts in the past couple of decades
to change to culture of the company to a more open, innovative and friendly environment
with fewer hierarchies and smaller chain of command.

Staff: Organisations are made up of humans and it's the people who make the real
difference to the success. The importance of human resources has thus got the central
position in the strategy in India Infolline .In India Infoline extraordinary emphasis on
hiring the best staff, providing them with rigorous training and mentoring support, and
pushing their staff to limits in achieving professional excellence, and this forms the basis
of the company' strategy and competitive advantage over their competitors.

Shared Values/ Superordinate Goals: All members of the organisation share some
common fundamental ideas or guiding concepts around which the business is built. In
India Infoline it is to customer satisfaction to the maximum.
2.2 USP and Best Practices of India Infoline
29

Customer Satisfaction: The USP of India Infoline lies in satisfying the customer to the
maximum. Employees are trained for this.
Delegation of authority: In India Infoline delegation of authority is one of the major part
which help lower management as well to experience and learn new things.
I-Win: It is used by C code employees. The employees can check their salary, attendance
and can also update their account. C code employees are the employees having Division
Manager designation and above.
F-Win: It is used by the HR department. It is used by the HR personnel to generate the
employee ID.
CSR: In line with IIFLs vision to be the most respected company in the financial
services space, the company recognises the importance of contributing to and sustaining
social transformation. The IIFL Foundation has been set up to work in areas of skill
development for various industries and to ensure financial inclusion through the support
and upliftment of the underprivileged sections of society. The IIFL Foundation focuses on
specific areas of need, including healthcare and education. The foundation will screen and
select institutions and developmental agencies which are working in these domains and
will provide necessary aid to improve the lives of the underprivileged and help them in
achieving their potential. The IIFL Foundation has initiated career guidance to the
students of High School and Junior colleges in remote areas of Maharashtra to enable
them to pursue the career which provides right employment opportunities.
2.3 Variations in classroom study and practical exposure of corporate culture
During my summer internship I found huge differences in the classroom study and the
real practical exposure. I learned how to apply theoretical knowledge and principles, facts
into practice of various concepts of finance, HR, IT, accounts, operations, marketing, etc.
such as:-
