SUMMARY

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

5

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.

presence in 18 countries. ICICI Bank offers a wide range of banking products

and financial services to corporate and retail customer through a variety of

delivery channels and through its specialized subsidiaries and affiliates in the

ICICI Bank's equity shares are listed in India on Bombay Stock Exchange

(BSE) and the National Stock Exchange (NSE) of India Limited and its

American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) are listed on the New York Stock

Exchange (NYSE).

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

8

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

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

9

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 returns. Bank is exposed to various risks, including credit risk, market risk

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

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,

Credit risk is the risk that a borrower is unable to meet its financial obligations

to the lender. Bank measure, monitor and manage credit risk for each borrower

and also at the portfolio level. Bank has standardized credit-approval processes,

which include a well-established procedure for comprehensive credit appraisal

and rating. ICICI Bank has well developed internal credit rating methodologies

for rating obligors. The rating factors in quantitative, qualitative issues and

credit enhancement features specific to the transaction. The rating serves as a

key input in the approval as well as post-approval credit processes. Industry

knowledge is constantly updated through field visits and interactions with

clients, regulatory bodies and industry experts. In retail credit operations, the

Board or a Board Committee approves all products, policies and authorizations.

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 RISKMarket 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

26

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

through systematic funds planning and maintenance of liquid investment as well

as focusing on more stable funding sitsces such as retail deposits. ICICI Bank

limit exposure to exchange rate risk by stipulating position limits. The treasury

Middle Office Group monitors the asset-liability position under the supervision

of the ALCO. The Treasury Middle Office Group is also responsible for

processing treasury transactions, tracking the daily funds position and

complying with all treasury related management and regulatory reporting

requirements.

OPREATIONAL RISKOperational 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

27

meet external shocks that can adversely impact continuity in the bank’s

operations.

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

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 ‘.

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’.

39

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

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, 40

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

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

41

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.

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.

42

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

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 LIABILITIESCurrent 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

43

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

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 44

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.

4.2.4 BALANCE-SHEET STRUCTUREBasis 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.

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.

46

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

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.

47

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

48

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

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

49

techniques to analyze the information contained within the balance sheet & p&l

account.

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:

50

Percentage=change in sales /Base Year Sales*100

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

51

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.

52

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

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.

55

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 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:

61

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:

62

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:

63

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

64

Quick Ratio 0.40:1 0.40:1

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

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

67

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.

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. 68

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.
