  4. Qualification for registration(S 3) • The company shall have minimum own funds of Rs. two crores or a capital adequacy of 15% vis-à-vis total financial assets acquired or to be acquired. (It seems for companies having own funds of more than Rs. two crores, the capital adequacy norm would not apply. This will create an anomaly) • The company shall not have made losses during any of the three preceding financial years. (The provision is very general and companies may use various ways of not reporting losses) • Adequate infrastructure for this particular type of business.

  7. Means of financing the acquisition (S 7): • ASRC may raise funds from qualified institutional buyers (QIB). • ASRC has to ensure funds are raised specific to a financial asset. • Also realization from each financial asset shall be utilized towards redemption and returns assured for that financial asset only. • ASRC may issue security receipts to QIB (not through public offer) after acquiring the financial asset. • QIBs holding 75% of the security receipt may call a meeting of all QIBs and all the decisions taken shall be binding on the company. It is not clear whether the decision is binding on ASRC or the obligor
