 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

In any organization, the two important financial statements are the Balance
sheet & Profit and loss account of the business. Balance sheet is a statement
of the financial position of an enterprise at a particular point of time. Profit and
loss account shows the net profit or net loss of a company for a specified period
of time. When these statements of the last few year of any organization are
studied and analyzed, significant conclusions may be arrived regarding the
changes in the financial position, the important policies followed and trends in
profit and loss etc. Analysis and interpretation of the financial statement has
now become an important technique of credit appraisal. The investors, financial
experts, management executives and the bankers all analyze these statements.
Though the basic technique of appraisal remains the same in all the cases but
the approach and the emphasis in analysis vary. A banker interprets the
financial statement so as to evaluate the financial soundness and stability, the
liquidity position and the profitability or the earning capacity of borrowing
concern. Analysis of financial statement is necessary because it help in
depicting the financial position on the basis of past and current records.
Analysis of financial statement helps in making the future decision and
strategies. Therefore, it is very necessary for every organization whether it is a
financial or manufacturing etc. to make financial statement and to analyse it.

3.1.1HISTORY
ICICI Bank was originally promoted in 1994 by ICICI Limited, an Indian
financial institution, and was its wholly owned subsidiary. ICICI's shareholding
in ICICI Bank was reduced to 46% through a public offering of shares in India
in fiscal 1998, an equity offering in the form of ADRs listed on the NYSE in
fiscal 2000, ICICI Bank's acquisition of Bank of Madura Limited in an all-stock
amalgamation in fiscal 2001, and secondary market sales by ICICI to
institutional investors in fiscal 2001 and fiscal 2002. ICICI was formed in 1955
at the initiative of the World Bank, the Government of India and representatives
of Indian industry. The principal objective was to create a development
financial institution for providing medium-term and long-term project financing
to Indian businesses. In the 1990s, ICICI transformed its business from a
development financial institution offering only project finance to a diversified
financial services group offering a wide variety of products and services, both
directly and through a number of subsidiaries and affiliates like ICICI Bank. In
1999, ICICI become the first Indian company and the first bank or financial
institution from non-Japan Asia to be listed on the NYSE.

After consideration of various corporate structuring alternatives in the context

of the emerging competitive scenario in the Indian banking industry, and the
move towards universal banking, the managements of ICICI and ICICI Bank
formed the view that the merger of ICICI with ICICI Bank would be the optimal
strategic alternative for both entities, and would create the optimal legal
structure for the ICICI group's universal banking strategy. The merger would
enhance value for ICICI shareholders through the merged entity's access to low-
cost deposits, greater opportunities for earning fee-based income and the ability
to participate in the payments system and provide transaction-banking services.
The merger would enhance value for ICICI Bank shareholders through a large
capital base and scale of operations, seamless access to ICICI's strong corporate
relationships built up over five decades, entry into new business segments,
higher market share in various business segments, particularly fee-based
services, and access to the vast talent pool of ICICI and its subsidiaries. In
10
October 2001, the Boards of Directors of ICICI and ICICI Bank approved the
merger of ICICI and two of its wholly-owned retail finance subsidiaries, ICICI
Personal Financial Services Limited and ICICI Capital Services Limited, with
ICICI Bank. The merger was approved by shareholders of ICICI and ICICI
Bank in January 2002, by the High Citst of Gujarat at Ahmedabad in March
2002, and by the High Citst of Judicature at Mumbai and the Reserve Bank of
India in April 2002. Consequent to the merger, the ICICI group's financing and
banking operations, both wholesale and retail, have been integrated in a single
entity. ICICI Bank has formulated a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics for
its directors and employees.

and operational risk. Bank’s risk management strategy is based on a clear
understanding of various risks, disciplined risk assessment and measurement
procedures and continuous monitoring. The policies and procedures established
for this purpose are continuously benchmarked with international best practices.
Bank has two dedicated groups, the RISK MANAGEMENT GROUP (RMG)
and COMPLIANCE & AUDIT GROUP (CAG) which is responsible for
assessment, management and mitigation of risk in ICICI Bank. These groups
from part of the corporate center are completely independent of all business
operations and are accountable to the Risk and Audit committees of the Board
of directors. RMG is further organized into the Credit Risk Management group,

Board or a Board Committee approves all products, policies and authorizations.
27
Credit approval authority lies only with the credit officers who are distinct from
the sales team. Credit scoring models are used in the case of certain
products like credit cards. External agencies such as field investigation agencies
and credit processing agencies are used to facilitate a comprehensive due
diligence process including visits to offices and homes in the case of loans to
individual borrowers.

 MARKET RISK
Market risk is the risk of loss resulting from changes in interest rates, foreign
currency exchange rates, equity prices and commodity prices. The objective of
market risk management is to minimize the impact of losses on earnings and
equity capital due to market risk. Market risk policies include the Investment
Policy and the Asset-Liability Management (ALM) Policy. The policies are
approved by the Board of Directors. The Asset Liability Management

Committee (ALCO) of the Board of Directors stipulate liquidity and interest

rate risk limits, monitors adherence to limits, articulates the organisation’s
interest rate view and determines the strategy in light of the current and
expected environment. These policies and processes are articulated in the
ALPM policy. The investment policy addresses issues related to investment in
various trading products. RMG exercises independent control over the process
of market risk management and recommends changes in process and
methodologies for measuring market risk Interest rate risk is measured through
the use of re-pricing gap analysis and duration analysis. Liquidity risk is
measured through gap analysis. Bank ensure adequate liquidity at all time

Operational risk is the risk of loss that can result from a variety of factors,
including failure to obtain proper internal authorizations, improperly
documented transactions, failure of operational and information security
procedures, computer systems, software or equipment, fraud, inadequate
training and employee errors. Bank’s approach to operational risk management
is designed to mitigate operational risk by maintaining a comprehensive system
of internal controls, establishing systems and procedures to monitor
transactions, maintaining key back-up procedures and undertaking regular
contingency planning. Effective operational risk management system would
ensure that bank has sufficient information to make appropriate decisions about
additional controls, adjustments to controls, or other risk responses. Operational
risk management policy aims at minimizing losses and customer dissatisfaction
due to failure in processes, focusing on flaws in products and their design that
can expose the bank to losses due to fraud, analyzing the impact of failures in
systems, developing mitigants to minimize the impact and developing plans to
meet external shocks that can adversely impact continuity in the bank’s
operations.

company for a specified period. The accounting year means calendar year of 12
months or less or more than 12 months.

4.1.2 CONTENTS: This presents the revenues and expenses of a company

and shows the excess of revenues over expenses for profit and vice versa for a
loss.

4.1.3 FORMAT: The Companies act does not provide any specific format
for this account. However it is required to be prepared on the basis of the
instructions given in part ii of schedule (vi) of the companies act.

4.1.4 MAIN ITEMS OF PROFIT AND LOSS ACCOUNT

 Turnover or sales: The aggregate amount of sales and connected items

with the sales such as commission paid to sole-selling agents and other
selling agents and brokerage and discounts on sales other than usual trade
discount.
 Depreciation: The amount of depreciation of fixed assets and the arrears

of depreciation as per section 205(2) shall be disclosed by way of foot-

note.

40

as outstanding.
 Miscellaneous expenses: In this head items such as rates and taxes,

insurance premium etc., must be stated separately.

 Preliminary expenses: Such expenses include the costs of formation of a

company and since their amount is usually large, it is not desirable to

write off them in one year.
 Provision for taxation: The profit and loss account of a company must

be debited with the estimated liabilities for tax on the current profits at
current rates of taxation.
 Unclaimed dividends: It is shown on the liabilities side of the balance

sheet under the heading ‘current liabilities ‘.

 Interim dividends: It is an item of appropriation. It is transferred to the

debit side of the Profit and loss appropriation account.

 Final dividend as an item of the trial balance: This is shown in the

debit side of the appropriation section of the profit and loss account.

 Proposed dividend or final dividend proposed: Since it is an

adjustment item, it has to be shown at two places- In the debit side of the
profit and loss appropriation account and on the liabilities side of the
balance sheet under the head ‘current liabilities and provisions’.
 Political donations: It must be shown as a separate item in the profit and

loss account.
 Dividend on interest income: This item is transferred to the credit side

of the profit and loss account.

 Payment to auditors: It must be stated separately. This will include

consultancy fee, auditing fees management services etc.

 Managerial remuneration: This includes the payments made to

managerial remuneration director’s fee, pension, other allowances and

commission.

 4.2 STUDY OF BALANCE SHEET

4.2.1 MEANING: The balance sheet is a financial snapshot of a company's

condition at a single point in time. A balance sheet contains a listing of the
company's asset, liability and Capital accounts. When someone, whether a
creditor or investor, asks you how your company is doing, you'll want to have
the answer ready and documented. The way to show off the success of your
company is a balance sheet. A balance sheet is a documented report of your
company's assets and obligations, as well as the residual ownership claims
against your equity at any given point in time. It is a cumulative record that
reflects the result of all recorded accounting transactions since your enterprise
was formed. You need a balance sheet to specifically know what your
company's net worth is on any given date. With a properly prepared balance
sheet, you can look at a balance sheet at the end of each accounting period and
know if your business has more or less value, if your debts are higher or lower,
and if your working capital is higher or lower. By analyzing your balance sheet,
investors, creditors and others can assess your ability to meet short-term
obligations and solvency, as well as your ability to pay all current and long-term
debts as they come due. The balance sheet also shows the composition of assets
and liabilities, the relative proportions of debt and equity financing and the
amount of earnings that you have had to retain. Collectively, external parties to
help assess your company’s financial status, which is required by both lending

42
institutions and investors before they will allot any money toward your
business, will use this information.

4.2.2 LEARN THE DIFFERENT ASSETS

Current assets: Current assets include cash and other assets that in the
normal course of events are converted into cash within the operating cycle. For
example, a manufacturing enterprise will use cash to acquire inventories of
materials. These inventories of materials are converted into finished products
and then sold to customers. Cash is collected from the customers. This circle
from cash back to cash is called an operating cycle. In a merchandising business
one part of the cycle is eliminated. Materials are not purchased for conversion
into finished products. Instead, the finished products are purchased and are sold
directly to the customers. Several operating cycles may be completed in a year,
or it may take more than a year to complete one operating cycle. The time
required to complete an operating cycle depends upon the nature of the
business. It is conceivable that almost all of the assets that are used to conduct
your business, such as buildings, machinery, and equipment, can be converted
into cash within the time required to complete an operating cycle. However,
your current assets are only those that will be converted into cash within the
normal course of your business. The other assets are only held because they
provide useful services and are excluded from the current asset classification. If
you happen to hold these assets in the regular course of business, you can
include them in the inventory under the classification of current assets. Current
assets are usually listed in the order of their liquidity and frequently consist of
cash, temporary investments, accounts receivable, inventories and prepaid
expenses.

 Cash: Cash is simply the money on hand and/or on deposit that is

available for general business purposes. It is always listed first on a

balance sheet. Cash held for some designated purpose, such as the cash
held in a fund for eventual retirement of a bond issue, is excluded from
current assets.

43
  Marketable Securities: These investments are temporary and are made

from excess funds that you do not immediately need to conduct

operations. Until you need these funds, they are invested to earn a return.

 Accounts Receivable: Simply stated, accounts receivables are the

amounts owed to you and are evidenced on your balance sheet by

promissory notes. Accounts receivable are the amounts billed to your
customers and owed to you on the balance sheet's date. You should label
all other accounts receivable appropriately and show them apart from the
accounts receivable arising in the course of trade. If these other amounts
are currently collectible, they may be classified as current assets.

 Inventories: Your inventories are your goods that are available for sale,

products that you have in a partial stage of completion, and the materials
that you will use to create your products. The costs of purchasing
merchandise and materials and the costs of manufacturing your various
product lines are accumulated in the accounting records and are identified
with either the cost of the goods sold during the fiscal period or as the
cost of the inventories remaining.

 Prepaid expenses: These expenses are payments made for services that

will be received in the near future. Strictly speaking, your prepaid

expenses will not be converted to current assets in order to avoid
penalizing companies that choose to pay current operating costs in
advance rather than to hold cash. Often your insurance premiums or
rentals are paid in advance.

Investments: Investments are cash funds or securities that you hold for a
designated purpose for an indefinite period of time. Investments include stocks
or the bonds you may hold for another company, real estate or mortgages that
you are holding for income-producing purposes. Your investments also include
money that you may be holding for a pension fund.

Plant Assets: Often classified as fixed assets, or as plant and equipment, your
plant assets include land, buildings, machinery, and equipment that are to be
44
used in business operations over a relatively long period of time. It is not
expected that you will sell these assets and convert them into cash. Plant assets
simply produce income indirectly through their use in operations.

Intangible Assets: Your other fixed assets that lack physical substance are
referred to as intangible assets and consist of valuable rights, privileges or
advantages. Although your intangibles lack physical substance, they still hold
value for your company. Sometimes the rights, privileges and advantages of
your business are worth more than all other assets combined.

Other Assets: During the course of preparing your balance sheet you will
notice other assets that cannot be classified as current assets, investments, plant
assets, or intangible assets. These assets are listed on your balance sheet as other
assets. Frequently, your other assets consist of advances made to company
officers, the cash surrender value of life insurance on officers, the cost of
buildings in the process of construction, and the miscellaneous funds held for
special purposes.

4.2.3 LEARN THE DIFFERENT LIABILITIES

Current Liabilities: On the equity side of the balance sheet, as on the asset
side, you need to make a distinction between current and long-term items. Your
current liabilities are obligations that you will discharge within the normal
operating cycle of your business. In most circumstances your current liabilities
will be paid within the next year by using the assets you classified as current.
The amount you owe under current liabilities often arises as a result of
acquiring current assets such as inventory or services that will be used in current
operations. You show the amounts owed to trade creditors that arise from the
purchase of materials or merchandise as accounts payable. If you are obligated
under promissory notes that support bank loans or other amounts owed, your
liability is shown as notes payable. Other current liabilities may include the
estimated amount payable for income taxes and the various amounts owed for

45
wages and salaries of employees, utility bills, payroll taxes, local property taxes
and other services.

Long-Term Liabilities: Your debts that are not due until more than a year from
the balance sheet date are generally classified as long-term liabilities. Notes,
bonds and mortgages are often listed under this heading. If a portion of your
long-term debt is due within the next year, it should be removed from the long-
term debt classification and shown under current liabilities.

Deferred Revenues: Your customers may make advance payments for

merchandise or services. The obligation to the customer will, as a general rule,
be settled by delivery of the products or services and not by cash payment.
Advance collections received from customers are classified as deferred
revenues, pending delivery of the products or services.

Owner's Equity: Your owner's equity must be subdivided on your balance

sheet: One portion represents the amount invested directly by you, plus any
portion of retained earnings converted into paid-in capital. The other portion
represents your net earnings that are retained. This rigid distinction is necessary
because of the nature of any corporation. Ordinarily, stockholders, or owners,
are not personally liable for the debts contracted by a company. A stockholder
may lose his investment, but creditors usually cannot look to his personal assets
for satisfaction of their claims. Under normal circumstances, the stockholders
may withdraw as cash dividends an amount measured by the corporate earnings.
The distinction in this rule gives the creditors some assurance that a certain
portion of the assets equivalent to the owner's investment cannot be arbitrarily
withdrawn. Of course, this portion could be depleted from your balance sheet
because of operating losses. The owner's equity in an unincorporated business is
shown more simply. The interest of each owner is given in total, usually with no
distinction being made between the portion invested and the accumulated net
earnings. The creditors are not concerned about the amount invested. If
necessary, creditors can attach the personal assets of the owners.

46
4.2.4 BALANCE-SHEET STRUCTURE
Basis of balance-sheet: Assets = Liability + Equity
The following Balance sheet structure is just an example. It does not show all
possible kind of assets, equity and liabilities, but it shows the most usual ones. It
could be a consolidated balance sheet. Monetary values are not shown and
summary (total) rows are missing as well.

Short-term provisions

4.2.5 EQUITY VALUATION:The real value to a purchaser of the

business or a shareholder may be different from the net assets shown by the
balance sheet. This is because factors that affect the value of a business may not
be recorded yet. For example, a purchaser will be interested in the future
earnings of the business, whether assets such as property have been revalued
recently, and whether there are potential liabilities in the future such as lawsuits.
The value of the assets in the balance has also been based on the assumption
that the business is a going concern, otherwise the break-up value of the assets
may be far less than the value in the balance sheet.

4.2.6 PREPAIRING A BALANCE-SHEET

 Title and Heading: In practice, the most widely used title is Balance

Sheet; however Statement of Financial Position is also acceptable.

Naturally, when the presentation includes more than one time period the
title "Balance Sheets" should be used.

 Heading: In addition to the statement title, the heading of your balance

sheet should include the legal name of your company and the date or
dates that your statement is presented. For example, a comparative
presentation might be headed:

XYZ CORPORATION
BALANCE SHEETS
December 31, 2008
48
 Format: There are two basic ways that balance sheets can be arranged. In

Account Form, your assets are listed on the left-hand side and totaled to
equal the sum of liabilities and stockholders' equity on the right-hand
side. Another format is Report Form, a running format in which your
assets are listed at the top of the page and followed by liabilities and
stockholders' equity. Sometimes total liabilities are deducted from total
assets to equal stockholders' equity.

 Captions: Captions are headings within your statement that designate

major groups of accounts to be totaled or subtotaled. Your balance sheet

should include three primary captions: Assets, Liabilities and
Stockholders' Equity. In the report form of presentation, the placement of
your primary captions would be as follows: 2006 ASSETS,
LIABILITIES AND STOCKHOLDER’S EQUITY.

 Order of Presentation of Captions: First, start with items held primarily

for conversion into cash and rank them in the order of their expected
conversion. Then, follow with items held primarily for use in operations
but that could be converted into cash, and rank them in the order of
liquidity. Finally, finish with items whose costs you will defer to future
periods or that you cannot convert into cash.

49
 4.3 STUDY OF CASH FLOW STATEMENT

4.3.1 MEANING: Cash flow statement or statement of cash flows is a

financial statement that shows a company's incoming and outgoing money
(sources and uses of cash) during a time period (often monthly or quarterly).
The statement shows how changes in balance sheet and income accounts
affected cash and cash equivalents, and breaks the analysis down according to
operating, investing, and financing activities. As an analytical tool the
statement of cash flows is useful in determining the short-term viability of a
company, particularly its ability to pay bills.

4.3.2 PURPOSE: The cash flow statement reflects a firms liquidity or

solvency. The main purpose to make cash flow statement are as follows:

1. provide information on a firm's liquidity and solvency and its ability to

change cash flows in future circumstances

2. provide additional information for evaluating changes in assets, liabilities
and equity
3. improve the comparability of different firms' operating performance by

eliminating the effects of different accounting methods

4. indicate the amount, timing and probability of future cash flows

50
4.3.3 ACTIVITIES INVOLVED IN CASH FLOW: The cash flow
statement is partitioned into cash flow resulting from operating activities, cash
flow resulting from investing activities, and cash flow resulting from financing
activities.

Operating activities: Operating activities include the production, sales and

delivery of the company's product as well as collecting payment from its
customers. This could include purchasing raw materials, building inventory,
advertising.
Investing activities: Investing activities focus on the purchase of the long-term
assets a company needs in order to make and sell its products, and the selling of
any long-term assets.

Financing activities: Financing activities include the inflow of cash from

investors such as banks and shareholders, as well as the outflow of cash
to shareholders as dividends as the company generates income. Other
activities which impact the long-term liabilities and equity of the
company are also listed in the financing activities section of the cash flow
statement.
Analysis of cash flow statement is necessary for every organisation to depict its
cash inflow and outflow.

4.4 FINANCIAL STATEMENT ANALYSIS

4.4.1 MEANING: Financial statement analysis is the process of examining

relationships among financial statement elements and making comparisons with
relevant information. It is a valuable tool used by investors and creditors,
financial analysts, and others in their decision-making processes related to
stocks, bonds, and other financial instruments. With a great understanding of the
balance sheet & p&l account and how it is constructed, we can look at some
techniques to analyze the information contained within the balance sheet & p&l
account.

51
4.4.2 PURPOSE: The main purpose of analyzing the financial statement are
the following:-

 To assess past performance and current financial position.

 To make predictions about the future performance of a company.

4.4.3 TOOLS FOR ANALYSING

1.PERCENTAGE CALCULATION
There are two popular methods by which we can analyze the financial
statement by calculating percentage as taking a common base.
 Horizontal Analysis
When an analyst compares financial information for two or more years
for a single company, the process is referred to as horizontal analysis,
since the analyst is reading across the page to compare any single line
item, such as sales revenues. In addition to comparing dollar amounts, the
analyst computes percentage changes from year to year for all financial
statement balances, such as cash and inventory. Alternatively, in
comparing financial statements for a number of years, the analyst may
prefer to use a variation of horizontal analysis called trend analysis.
Trend analysis involves calculating each year's financial statement
balances as percentages of the first year, also known as the base year.
When expressed as percentages, the base year figures are always 100
percent, and percentage changes from the base year can be determined.
If we want to calculate % change in sales then we apply the following
formula:
Percentage=change in sales /Base Year Sales*100
52
 Vertical Analysis
When using vertical analysis, the analyst calculates each item on a single
financial statement as a percentage of a total. The term vertical analysis
applies because each year's figures are listed vertically on a financial
statement. The total used by the analyst on the income statement is net
sales revenue, while on the balance sheet it is total assets. This approach
to financial statement analysis, also known as component percentages,
produces common-size financial statements. Common-size balance
sheets and income statements can be more easily compared, whether
across the years for a single company or across different companies.
If we want to calculate % change of current assets then we apply the
following formula:
Percentage: current assets/total assets*100

2.RATIO ANALYSIS
Financial ratio analysis uses formulas to gain insight into the company
and its operations. For the balance sheet, using financial ratios (like the
debt-to-equity ratio) can show you a better idea of the company’s
financial condition along with its operational efficiency. It is important to
note that some ratios will need information from more than one financial
statement, such as from the balance sheet and the income statement. Ratio
analysis facilitates inter-firm and intra-firm comparison.
Ratios are often classified using the following terms:
 LIQUIDITY RATIO
Liquidity ratios are measures of the short-term ability of the company to
pay its debts when they come due and to meet unexpected needs for cash.

• Current Ratio: The current ratio is a rough indication of a firm ability to

service its current obligations. Generally, the higher the current ratio, the

53
 greater the cushion between current obligations and a firm ability to pay
them. The stronger ratio reflects a numerical superiority of current assets
over current liabilities Current ratio is calculated as follows:
Current ratio= Current Assets/Current Liabilities

• Quick Ratio: It is also known as the “acid test” ratio, this is a refinement
of the current ratio and is a more conservative measure of liquidity. The
quick ratio expresses the degree to which a company’s current liabilities
are recovered by the most liquid current assets. quick ratio is calculated
as follows:
Quick ratio= (cash + marketable securities +

Receivables)/current

liabilities

 SOLVENCY RATIO
Solvency ratios indicate the ability of the company to meet its long-term
obligations on a continuing basis and thus to survive over a long period of
time.
• Debt/Worth Ratio: This ratio expresses the relationship between capital
contributed by creditors and that contributed by owners. It expresses the
degree of protection provided by the owners for the creditors. The higher
the ratio, the greater the risk being assumed by creditors. The lower the
ratio, the greater the long-term financial safety. A firm with a low
debt/worth ratio usually has a greater flexibility to borrow in the future. A
more highly leveraged company has a more limited debt capacity.

Debt/worth ratio=Total Liabilities / Tangible Net Worth

 PROFITABILITY RATIO
Profitability ratios are gauges of the company's operating success for a
given period of time.

54
• Return On Assets: Return on assets is a measure of how effectively the
firm’s assets are being used to generate profit. It is calculated as
follows:
Return On Assets= Net Income/Total Assets

• Return On Equity: Return on equity is the bottom line measure for

the shareholders, measuring for the profits earned for each rupee
invested in business. It is calculated as follows:
Return on Equity= Net income/shareholder’s equity

 Fixed/Worth Ratio: This ratio measures the extent to which owner’s

equity (capital) has been invested in plant and equipment (fixed assets). A
lower ratio indicates a proportionately smaller investment in fixed assets
in relation to net worth and a better cushion for creditors in case of
liquidation. Similarly, a higher ratio would indicate the opposite situation.
The presence of substantial leased fixed assets (not shown on the
balance-sheet ) may deceptively lower this ratio.

Fixed Worth Ratio=Net Fixed Assets/ Tangible Net Worth

 5.1 MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

Summary
• Profit before provisions and tax increased by 35.5% to Rs. 79.61 billion
in fiscal 2008 from Rs. 58.74 billion in fiscal 2007 primarily due to an
increase in net interest income by 29.6% to Rs. 73.04 billion in fiscal 2008
from Rs. 56.37 billion in fiscal 2007 and an increase in non-interest income
by 27.2% to Rs.88.11 billion in fiscal 2008 from Rs. 69.28 billion in fiscal
2007, offset, in part, by an increase in non-interest expenses by 21.9% to Rs.
81.54 billion in fiscal 2008 from Rs. 66.91 billion in fiscal 2007. Provisions
and contingencies (excluding provision for tax) increased by 30.5% during
fiscal 2008 primarily due to a higher level of specific provisioning on non-
performing loans, offset, in part by a reduction in general provision on loans.
Profit before tax increased by 38.6% to Rs. 50.56 billion in fiscal 2008 from
Rs. 36.48 billion in fiscal 2007. Profit after tax increased by 33.7% to Rs.
41.58 billion in fiscal 2008 from Rs. 31.10 billion in fiscal 2007.

• Net interest income increased by 29.6% to Rs. 73.04 billion in fiscal 2008
from Rs. 56.37 billion in fiscal 2007, reflecting an increase of 27.6% or Rs.
711.07 billion in the average volume of interest-earning assets and an

57
increase in net interest margin to 2.22% in fiscal 2008 compared to 2.19% in
fiscal 2007.

• Non-interest income increased by 27.2% to Rs. 88.11 billion in fiscal

2008 from Rs. 69.28 billion in fiscal 2007 primarily due to a 32.2% increase
in fee income and a 14.0% increase in treasury and other non-interest
income.

• Non-interest expenses increased by 21.9% to Rs. 81.54 billion in fiscal

2008 from Rs. 66.91 billion in fiscal 2007 primarily due to a 28.6% increase
in employee expenses and a 31.6% increase in other administrative expenses.
• Provisions and contingencies (excluding provision for tax) increased to
Rs. 29.05 billion in fiscal 2008 from Rs. 22.26 billion in fiscal 2007
primarily due to higher level of specific provisioning on retail loans due to
change in the portfolio mix towards non-collateralised loans and seasoning
of the loan portfolio, offset in part by a reduction in general provision on
loans due to lower growth in the loan portfolio relative to fiscal 2007.

• Total assets increased by 16.0% to Rs. 3,997.95 billion at year-end fiscal

2008 from Rs. 3,446.58 billion at year-end fiscal 2007 primarily due to an
increase in advances by 15.2% and an increase in investments by 22.1%.
• During the year, we made a follow-on public offering of equity shares in
India and an issuance of American Depository Shares (ADSs) aggregating to
Rs. 199.67 billion.
• The Sangli Bank Limited (Sangli Bank) was amalgamated with ICICI
Bank with effect from April 19, 2007 in terms of the scheme of
amalgamation approved by Reserve Bank of India (RBI) vide its order
DBOD No. PSBD 10268/16.01.128/2006-07 dated April 18, 2007 under
section 44A (4) of the Banking Regulation Act, 1949. Sangli Bank was a
banking company incorporated under the Companies Act, 1956 and licensed
by RBI under the Banking Regulation Act, 1949. The consideration for the

58
amalgamation was 100 equity shares of ICICI Bank of face value Rs. 10
each fully paid-up for every 925 equity shares of face value of Rs. 10 each of
Sangli Bank. Accordingly, on May 28, 2007, ICICI Bank allotted 3,455,008
equity shares of Rs. 10 each, credited as fully paid up, to the shareholders of
Sangli Bank. The excess of the paid-up value of the shares issued over the
fair value of the net assets acquired (including reserves) of Rs. 3.26 billion
and amalgamation expenses of Rs. 0.22 billion have been deducted from the
securities premium account.

5.4 RATIO ANALYSIS

1) CURRENT RATIO:
64
Current Ratio= Current Assets/Current Liabilities

In 2008:

Current Assets=380.41+2256.16=2636.57 billion (cash + advances)

Current Liabilities=246.91+863.99=1109.9billion (short-term deposits+

borrowings)

Current Ratio=2636.57/1109.9=2.4:1

In 2007:

Current Assets=371.21+1958.66=2329.87billion (cash + advances)

Current Liabilities=213.76+108.37+598.23=920.36 billion (short-term

deposits+ borrowings)

Current Ratio=2329.87/920.36=2.6:1

2) QUICK RATIO:

Quick Ratio=Quick Assets/Current Liabilities

In 2008:

Quick Assets=380.41billion (cash in hand and other bank)

Current Liabilities=1109.9billion

Quick Ratio=380.41/1109.9=0.40:1

In 2007:

Quick Assets=371.21billion (cash in hand and other bank)

Current Liabilities=920.30billion

Quick Ratio=371.21/920.30=0.40:1

3) RETURN ON AVERAGE ASSETS:

65
Return on average assets= Net income/average assets*100

average assets= total assets at the beginning + total assets at the end/2

In 2008: net income=25.40 billion

Average assets= (1676.59+ 2513.89)/2= 2095.24

Return on average assets= 25.40/2095.24*100 = 1.21%

In 2007: net income= 31.10 billion

Average assets= (2513.89+ 3446.58)/2= 2980.24

Return on average assets= 31.10/2980.24*100=1.04%

4) RETURN ON AVERAGE EQUITY:

Return on average equity = Net income/average equity*100

average equity= total equity at the beginning + total equity at the end/2

In 2008: net income=25.40 billion

Average equity= (129.00+225.56)/2= 177.28

Return on average equity= 25.40/177.28*100 = 17.54%

In 2007: net income= 31.10 billion

Average equity= (225.56+246.63)/2= 236.10

Return on average equity = 31.10/236.10*100=13.17%

5) FIXED/WORTH RATIO:

Fixed Worth Ratio=Net Fixed Assets/ Tangible Net Worth

In 2008:

Net Fixed Assets= 39.80 billion

Tangible Net Worth= 225.55 billion

Fixed Worth Ratio=39.80/225.55= 0.18:1

In 2007:

66
Net Fixed Assets= 39.23 billion

Tangible Net Worth= 246.62 billion

Fixed Worth Ratio=39.23/246.62 = 0.16:1

6) OPERATING PROFIT TO WORKING FUNDS

Operating Profit To Working Funds=operating profit/ average assets*100

In 2008:

Operating profit=38.80 billion

Average assets=2095.24

Operating profit to working fund=38.80/2095.24*100= 1.85%

In 2007:

Operating profit=58.84 billion

Average assets=2980.84

Operating profit to working fund=58.84/2980.84*100= 1.98%

(approximately)

RATIOS IN 2008 IN 2007

Current Ratio 2.4:1 2.6:1

Quick Ratio 0.40:1 0.40:1

67
Return On Assets 1.21% 1.04%

Return On Equity 17.54% 13.17%

Fixed/worth Ratio 0.18:1 0.16:1

Operating profit to working funds 1.85% 1.98%

The above table shows that:- both current ratio and quick ratio is liquidity ratio.
The ideal ratio for current ratio is 2:1 and ideal ratio for quick ratio is 1:1. In
these table current ratio of both year is higher than the ideal ratio which shows
that there is enough current assets which make the bank able to pay its current
liabilities on time but quick ratio is lower than the ideal ratio which shows that
bank have not enough liquid assets to pay their current liabilities. Therefore
bank should keep some assets in the form of liquid assets such as cash,
marketable securities etc.

Return on equity, return on assets and operating profit to working funds are
profitability ratio. The higher the profitability ratio of any organization is show
the better position of that organization. The profitability ratio of ICICI bank is
very low. It is deceasing from the previous year.

Fixed/worth ratio measures the extent to which owner’s equity has been
invested in plant and equipment . A lower ratio indicates a proportionately
smaller investment in fixed assets. This ratio shows that bank has invested more
in current assets than the fixed assets. It could be a good position in case of
liquidation.

CONCLUSION

AND

SUGGESTIONS

CONCLUSION

70
The balance-sheet along with the income statement is an important tools for
investors and many other parties who are interested in it to gain insight into a
company and its operation. The balance sheet is a snapshot at a single point of
time of the company’s accounts- covering its assets, liabilities and shareholder’s
equity. The purpose of the balance-sheet is to give users an idea of the
company’s financial position along with displaying what the company owns and
owes. It is important that all investors know how to use, analyze and read
balance-sheet. P & L account tells the net profit and net loss of a company and
its appropriation.

In the case of ICICI Bank, during fiscal 2008, the bank continued to grow and
diversify its assets base and revenue streams. Bank maintained its leadership in
all main areas such as retail credit, wholesale business, international operation,
insurance, mutual fund, rural banking etc. Continuous increase in the number of
branches, ATM and electronic channels shows the growth take place in bank.

Trend analysis of profit & loss account and balance sheet shows the % change
in items of p & l a/c and balance sheet i.e. % change in 2006 from 2005 and %
change in 2007 from 2006. It shows that all items are increased mostly but
increase in this year is less than as compared to increase in previous year. In p
& l a/c, all items like interest income, non-interest income, interest expenses,
operating expenses, operating profit, profit before tax and after tax is increased
but in mostly cases it is less than from previous year but in some items like
interest income, interest expenses, provision % increase is more. Some items
like tax, depreciation, lease income is decreased. Similarly in balance sheet all
items like advances, cash, liabilities, deposits is increased except borrowings
which is decreased. % increase in some item is more than previous year and in
some items it is less.

71
Ratio analysis of financial statement shows that bank’s current ratio is better
than the quick ratio and fixed/worth ratio. It means bank has invested more in
current assets than the fixed assets and liquid assets. Bank have given more
advances to its customer and they have less cash in their hand. Profitability
ratio of bank is lower than as compared to previous year. Return on equity is
better than the return on assets.

The cash flow statement shows that net increase in cash generated from
operating and financing activities is much more than the previous year but cash
generated from investing activities is negative in both year. There is increase of
159,708,479 thousand RS. in Increase in cash & cash equivalents from previous
year. Therefore analysis of cash flow statement shows that cash inflow is more
than the cash outflow in ICICI Bank.

Thus, the ratio analysis and trend analysis and analysis of cash flow statement
shows that ICICI Bank’s financial position is good. Bank’s profitability is
increasing but not at high rate. Bank’s liquidity position is fair but not good
because bank invest more in current assets than the liquid assets. As we all
know that ICICI Bank is on the first position among all the private sector bank
of India in all areas but it should pay attention on its profitability and liquidity.
Bank’s position is stable.

72
