Operating review
Credit growth
The Bank’s total advances increased 46% to Rs. 91,405 crore (US$ 20.95 billion) at March 31, 2005 compared to Rs. 62,648 crore (US$ 14.36 billion) at March 31, 2004. The Bank maintained its growth momentum in the retail segment. The Bank strengthened its leadership in home loans with disbursements of Rs. 18,873 crore (US$ 4.33 billion) in FY2005. The Bank strengthened its leadership in the credit card business and had a credit card base of about 3.3 million cards at March 31, 2005. Retail assets constituted 61% of advances and 58% of customer assets. The Bank’s net customer assets at March 31, 2005 were Rs. 96,917 crore (US$ 22.22 billion). While retail loans have been a major driver of banking sector credit growth, there are indications of a pickup in industrial credit as well. The Bank is focusing on credit origination in both the corporate and retail segments and on growth in non-fund based products.
Funding
The Bank’s deposits increased 47% to Rs. 99,819 crore (US$ 22.88 billion) at March 31, 2005 from Rs. 68,109 crore (US$ 15.61 billion) at March 31, 2004, compared to the banking system deposit growth of 14%. During this period, the Bank repaid about Rs. 9,000 crore (US$ 2.06 billion) of erstwhile ICICI’s liabilities as they fell due in accordance with their terms of repayment. At March 31, 2005, erstwhile ICICI’s liabilities constituted only 14% of the Bank’s funding compared to 26% at March 31, 2004.
International initiative
ICICI Bank continued to build on its existing presence in various geographies as well as enter new markets. The Bank opened a representative office in Bangladesh in August 2004, an offshore branch in Bahrain in October 2004 and a representative office in South Africa in February 2005 and now has a presence in eight geographies. The Bank’s UK subsidiary has achieved profitability in its first full year of operations. The Bank’s international presence combined with its domestic balance sheet enables it to offer a wider range of credit and trade finance solutions to Indian companies. In addition to providing credit and trade finance solutions to Indian companies, the Bank is expanding its international retail franchise. Total inward remittances by non-resident Indians (NRIs) through the Bank for FY2005 were over Rs. 13,100 crore (US$ 3.00 billion).

Rural banking
The Bank has taken several initiatives to extend the reach of financial services in rural India. The Bank has a network of over 2,000 rural Internet kiosks as franchisees for distribution of its financial products. The Bank extends micro-credit in partnership with 45 micro-finance institutions and non-government organisations across the country, and has covered 1 million households.
Network
The Bank had 562 branches and extension counters at March 31, 2005 as compared to 469 branches and extension counters at March 31, 2004.
Capital adequacy
The Bank’s capital adequacy at March 31, 2005 was 11.78% (including Tier-1 capital adequacy of 7.59%), well above RBI’s requirement of total capital adequacy of 9.0%.
Asset quality
The Bank’s net restructured assets at March 31, 2005 were Rs. 6,263 crore (US$ 1.44 billion), down from Rs. 6,629 crore (US$ 1.52 billion) at March 31, 2004. At March 31, 2005, the Bank’s net non-performing assets constituted 2.0% of customer assets against 2.9% at March 31, 2004.
Audited consolidated accounts
The consolidated profit after tax was Rs. 1,852 crore (US$ 425 million) in FY2005 as compared to Rs. 1,580 crore (US$ 362 million) in FY2004.
Group companies
ICICI Lombard General Insurance Company (ICICI Lombard) maintained its leadership position among private sector general insurance companies. ICICI Lombard achieved a profit after tax of Rs. 48 crore (US$ 11 million) in FY2005, compared to profit after tax of Rs. 32 crore (US$ 7 million) in FY2004. The company’s return on equity for FY2005 was 20%. ICICI Prudential Life Insurance Company (ICICI Prudential Life) continued to maintain its market leadership among private sector life insurance companies. Life insurance companies worldwide require five to seven years to achieve breakeven, in view of business set-up and customer acquisition costs in the initial years as well as reserving for actuarial liability. While the growing operations of ICICI Prudential Life had a negative impact of Rs. 157 crore (US$ 36 million) on the Bank’s consolidated profit after tax in FY2005 on account of the above reasons, the company’s unaudited New Business Achieved Profit (NBAP) for FY2005 was Rs. 312 crore (US$ 72 million) compared to a full year unaudited NBAP of Rs. 204 crore (US$ 47

million) for FY2004. NBAP represents the present discounted value of future profit streams from new policies written by the company during the year, calculated on the basis of certain assumptions as to mortality and other parameters. Internationally, life insurance companies in the growth phase are valued as a multiple of their NBAP. ICICI Securities Limited (ICICI Securities) achieved a profit after tax of Rs. 64 crore (US$ 15 million) in FY2005 despite a sharp decline in fixed income gains due to the prevailing interest rate environment. ICICI Venture Funds Management Company Limited (ICICI Venture) strengthened its leadership position in private equity in India, investing its India Advantage Fund and entering into a joint venture with Tishman Speyer Properties for investment in real estate. The Bank is in the process of increasing its shareholding in Prudential ICICI Asset Management Company Limited, which is among India’s two largest private sector mutual funds, to 51%.

US GAAP results
The US GAAP accounts show a net income (profit after tax) of Rs. 853 crore (US$ 196 million) in FY2005, an increase of 63% over the net income of Rs. 522 crore (US$ 120 million) in FY2004. ICICI Bank’s stockholders’ equity at March 31, 2005 as per US GAAP was Rs. 12,800 crore (US$ 2.93 billion) as compared to the Indian GAAP consolidated networth of Rs. 12,406 crore (US$ 2.84 billion).
As stated in the Bank’s press releases dated June 28, 2003 and May 22, 2004, there are significant differences in the basis of accounting between US GAAP and Indian GAAP. In the merger of erstwhile ICICI Limited (ICICI) with ICICI Bank, the Bank was the legal acquirer. Under Indian GAAP, the Bank is the accounting acquirer. Under US GAAP, ICICI is deemed to have acquired ICICI Bank. Therefore, the financial statements under US GAAP and Indian GAAP for the Bank are not comparable and these differences are expected to continue in future years. ICICI’s assets were fair valued while accounting for the merger under Indian GAAP. The primary impact of the fair valuation was the creation of additional provisions against ICICI’s loan and investment portfolio, reflected in the Indian GAAP balance sheet at March 31, 2002. Under US GAAP, ICICI Bank’s assets were fair valued while accounting for the merger. There is also a difference in the basis of computation of provision for restructured loans under US GAAP, which discounts expected cash flows at contracted interest rates, unlike Indian GAAP, under which current interest rates are used.
