1. Background
Axis Bank Limited (‘the Bank’) was incorporated in 1993 and provides a complete suite of banking and financial services
including retail banking, wholesale banking and treasury operations. The Bank is primarily governed by the Banking
Regulation Act, 1949. As on 31 March, 2022, the Bank has overseas branches at Singapore, DIFC - Dubai and an Offshore
Banking Unit at the International Financial Service Centre (IFSC), Gujarat International Finance Tec-City (GIFT City),
Gandhinagar, India.
2. Basis of preparation
The standalone financial statements (‘financial statements’) have been prepared and presented under the historical cost
convention on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles in India,
unless otherwise stated by the Reserve Bank of India (‘RBI’), to comply with the statutory requirements prescribed under
the Third Schedule of the Banking Regulation Act, 1949, the circulars, notifications, guidelines and directives issued by
the RBI from time to time and the Accounting Standards notified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 read
with paragraph 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014 and the Companies (Accounting Standards) Amendment
Rules, 2016 to the extent applicable and practices generally prevalent in the banking industry in India. Accounting
policies applied have been consistent with the previous year except otherwise stated.
3. Use of estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with the generally accepted accounting principles requires
the Management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities (including
contingent liabilities) at the date of the financial statements, revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from those estimates. The Management believes that the estimates and assumptions used in the
preparation of the financial statements are prudent and reasonable. Any revisions, as and when carried out, to the
accounting estimates are recognised prospectively in the current and future periods.

Standalone
marked up for credit risk applicable to the credit rating of the instrument. The matrix for credit risk mark-up for
each category and credit ratings along with residual maturity issued by FIMMDA/FBIL is adopted for this purpose.
• In case of bonds & debentures where interest is not received regularly (i.e. overdue beyond 90 days), the valuation
is in accordance with prudential norms for provisioning as prescribed by the RBI.
• Pass Through Certificates (‘PTC’) and Priority Sector PTCs are valued as per extant FIMMDA guidelines.
• Equity shares, for which current quotations are not available or where the shares are not quoted on the stock
exchanges, are valued at break-up value (without considering revaluation reserves, if any) which is ascertained
from the company’s latest Balance Sheet. In case the latest Balance Sheet is not available, the shares are valued at
`1 per company.
• Units of Venture Capital Funds (‘VCF’) held under AFS category where current quotations are not available are
valued based on the latest audited financial statements of the fund. In case the audited financials are not available
for a period beyond 18 months, the investments are valued at `1 per VCF. Investment in unquoted VCF may be
categorized under HTM category for the initial period of three years and are valued at cost as per the RBI guidelines.
• Investments in Security Receipts (SR’s) are valued as per the NAV declared by the issuing Asset Reconstruction
Company (ARC) or net book value of loans transferred or estimated recoverable value based on Bank’s internal
assessment on case to case basis, whichever is lower. In case of investments in SRs which are backed by more than
10 percent of the stressed assets sold by the Bank, the valuation of such SRs is additionally subject to a floor of
face value of the SRs reduced by the provisioning rate as per the extant asset classification and provisioning norms
as applicable to the underlying loans, assuming that the loan notionally continued in the books of the Bank.
Disposal of investments
Investments classified under the HTM category: Realised gains are recognised in the Profit and Loss Account and subsequently
appropriated to Capital Reserve account (net of taxes and transfer to statutory reserves) in accordance with the RBI
guidelines. Losses are recognised in the Profit and Loss Account.
Investments classified under the AFS and HFT categories: Realised gains/losses are recognised in the Profit and Loss Account.
Repurchase and reverse repurchase transactions
Repurchase (repo) and reverse repurchase transactions in Government securities and corporate debt securities including
those conducted under the Liquidity Adjustment Facility (‘LAF’) and Marginal Standby Facility (‘MSF’) with RBI are
accounted as collateralised borrowing and lending respectively. Accordingly, securities given as collateral under an
agreement to repurchase them continue to be held under the investment account and the Bank continues to accrue the
coupon/discount on the security during the repo period. Further, the Bank continues to value the securities sold under
repo as per the investment classification of the security. Borrowing cost on repo transactions is accounted as interest
expense and revenue on reverse repo transactions is accounted as interest income.
Short Sales
In accordance with the RBI guidelines, the Bank undertakes short sale transactions in Central Government dated
securities. Such short positions are categorised under HFT category and netted off from investments in the Balance
Sheet. These positions are marked-to-market along with the other securities under HFT portfolio and the resultant mark-
to-market gains/losses are accounted for as per the relevant RBI guidelines for valuation of investments discussed earlier.
5.2 Advances
Classification and measurement of advances
Advances are classified into performing and non-performing advances (‘NPAs’) as per the RBI guidelines and are stated
net of bills rediscounted, inter-bank participation certificates, specific provisions made towards NPAs, interest in
suspense for NPAs, claims received from Export Credit Guarantee Corporation, provisions for funded interest on term
loan classified as NPAs and floating provisions. Structured collateralised foreign currency loans extended to customers
and deposits received from the same customer are reported on a net basis.
The Bank transfers advances through inter-bank participation with and without risk. In accordance with the RBI guidelines,
in the case of participation with risk, the aggregate amount of the participation issued by the Bank is reduced from
advances and where the Bank is participating, the aggregate amount of the participation is classified under advances.
In the case of participation without risk, the aggregate amount of participation issued by the Bank is classified under
borrowings and where the Bank is participating, the aggregate amount of participation is shown as due from banks
under advances.
185
Standalone
The Bank maintains a general provision on standard advances at the rates prescribed by the RBI other than for corporate
standard advances internally rated ‘BB and Below’ or ‘Unrated’ and all SMA-2 advances as reported to CRILC, where
general provision is maintained at rates that are higher than those prescribed by RBI. In case of overseas branches,
general provision on standard advances is maintained at the higher of the levels stipulated by the respective overseas
regulator or by the extant RBI guidelines. The Bank also maintains general provision on positive Mark-to-Market (MTM)
on derivatives at the rates prescribed by the extant RBI guidelines.
The Bank maintains provision on non-funded outstanding in relation to NPAs, prudentially written off accounts,
corporate standard advances internally rated ‘BB and Below’ or ‘Unrated’ and all SMA-2 advances as reported to CRILC.
This provision is classified under Schedule 5 – Other Liabilities in the Balance Sheet.
Under its home loan portfolio, the Bank offers housing loans with certain features involving waiver of Equated Monthly
Installments (‘EMIs’) for a specific period subject to fulfilment of certain conditions by the borrower. The Bank makes
provision against the probable loss that could be incurred in future on account of these waivers to eligible borrowers
based on actuarial valuation conducted by an independent actuary. This provision is classified under Schedule 5 – Other
Liabilities in the Balance Sheet.
As on 31 March, 2022, the Bank continues to hold provisions against the potential impact of COVID‐19 (other than
provisions held for restructuring under COVID 19 norms) based on the information available at this point in time. The
provisions held by the Bank are in excess of the RBI prescribed norms.
5.3 Country risk
In addition to the provisions required to be held according to the asset classification status, provisions are held for
individual country exposure (other than for home country) as per the RBI guidelines. Such provisions are held only in
respect of those countries where the net funded exposure of the Bank exceeds 1% of its total assets. For this purpose
the countries are categorized into seven risk categories namely insignificant, low, moderate, high, very high, restricted
and off-credit as per internal parameters in accordance with RBI guidelines. Provision is made on exposures exceeding
180 days on a graded scale ranging from 0.25% to 100%. For exposures with contractual maturity of less than 180 days,
25% of the normal provision requirement is held. If the net funded exposure of the Bank in respect of each country
does not exceed 1% of the total assets, no provision is maintained on such country exposure in accordance with RBI
guidelines. This provision is classified under Schedule 5 – Other Liabilities in the Balance Sheet.
5.4 Securitisation and transfer of assets
Securitisation of Standard Assets
The Bank enters into purchase/sale of corporate and retail loans through direct assignment/Special Purpose Vehicle
(‘SPV’). In most cases, post securitisation, the Bank continues to service the loans transferred to the assignee/SPV.
The Bank also provides credit enhancement in the form of cash collaterals and/or by subordination of cash flows to
Senior Pass through Certificate holders. In respect of credit enhancements provided or recourse obligations (projected
delinquencies, future servicing etc.) accepted by the Bank, appropriate provision/disclosure is made at the time of sale
in accordance with AS-29, Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets as notified under Section 133 of
the Companies Act, 2013 read together with paragraph 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014 and the Companies
(Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2016. In accordance with RBI guidelines on Securitisation of Standard Assets,
any loss, profit or premium realised at the time of the sale is accounted in the Profit & Loss Account for the accounting
period during which the sale is completed. However, in case of unrealised gains arising out of sale of underlying assets to
the SPV, the profit is recognised in Profit and Loss Account only when such unrealised gains associated with such income
is redeemed in cash.
Transfer of Loan Exposures
In accordance with RBI guidelines on Transfer of Loan exposures, any loss or profit arising because of transfer of loans,
which is realised, is accounted for and reflected in the Profit & Loss Account for the accounting period during which the
transfer is completed. Loans acquired are carried at acquisition cost unless it is more than the outstanding principal at
the time of the transfer, in which case the premium paid is amortised based on straight line method.
5.5 Priority Sector Lending Certificates
The Bank enters into transactions for the sale or purchase of Priority Sector Lending Certificates (‘PSLCs’). In the case
of a sale transaction, the Bank sells the fulfilment of priority sector obligation and in the case of a purchase transaction
the Bank buys the fulfilment of priority sector obligation through the RBI trading platform. There is no transfer of loan
assets in PSLC transaction.

of the certificate as ‘Other Expenditure’ under Schedule 16 of Profit and Loss Account. Fees received on sale of PSLC is
amortised on straight-line basis over the tenor of the certificate as ‘Miscellaneous Income’ under Schedule 14 of Profit
and Loss Account.
In accordance with RBI guidelines on sale of non-performing advances, if the sale is at a price below the net book
value (i.e. book value less provisions held), the shortfall is charged to the Profit and Loss Account. If the sale is for a
value higher than the net book value, the excess provision is credited to the Profit and Loss Account in the year the
amounts are received.
The Bank deals in bullion business on a consignment basis. The difference between the price recovered from customers
and cost of bullion is accounted for at the time of sale to the customers. The Bank also deals in bullion on a borrowing
and lending basis and the interest paid/received is accounted on an accrual basis.
5.9 Fixed assets and depreciation/impairment
Fixed assets are carried at cost of acquisition less accumulated depreciation and impairment, if any. Cost includes initial
handling and delivery charges, duties, taxes and incidental expenses related to the acquisition and installation of the
asset. Subsequent expenditure incurred on assets put to use is capitalised only when it increases the future economic
benefit / functioning capability from / of such assets.
Capital work-in-progress includes cost of fixed assets that are not ready for their intended use and also includes advances
paid to acquire fixed assets.
Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful life of a fixed asset on the straight-line method from the date of
addition. The management believes that depreciation rates currently used, fairly reflect its estimate of the useful lives
and residual values of fixed assets based on historical experience of the Bank, though these rates in certain cases
are different from lives prescribed under Schedule II of Companies Act, 2013. Whenever there is a revision of the
estimated useful life of an asset, the unamortised depreciable amount is charged over the revised remaining useful life
of the said asset.
189
Standalone
Assets costing less than `5,000 individually are fully depreciated in the year of purchase.
Depreciation on assets sold during the year is recognised on a pro-rata basis to the Profit and Loss Account till
the date of sale.
Gain or losses arising from the retirement or disposal of Fixed Assets are determined as the difference between the
net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of assets and recognised as income or expense in the Profit and Loss
Account. Further, profit on sale of premises is appropriated to Capital Reserve account (net of taxes and transfer to
statutory reserve) in accordance with RBI instructions.
The carrying amounts of assets are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date to ascertain if there is any indication of
impairment based on internal/external factors. An impairment loss is recognised wherever the carrying amount of an
asset exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the greater of the asset’s net selling price and value
in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value at the weighted
average cost of capital. After impairment, depreciation is provided on the revised carrying amount of the asset over its
remaining useful life.
5.10 Non-banking assets
Non-banking assets (‘NBAs’) acquired in satisfaction of claims include land. In the case of land, the Bank creates provision
and follows the accounting treatment as per specific RBI directions.
5.11 Lease transactions
Leases where the lessor effectively retains substantially all the risks and benefits of ownership over the lease term are
classified as operating lease. Lease payments for assets taken on operating lease are recognised as an expense in the
Profit and Loss Account on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Lease income from assets given on operating lease
is recognized as income in profit and loss account on a straight line basis over the lease term.
5.12 Employee benefits
• Short-term employee benefits
Short-term employee benefits comprise salaries and other compensations payable for services which the employee
has rendered in the period. These are recognized at the undiscounted amount in the Profit & loss account.
• Provident Fund
Retirement benefit in the form of provident fund is a defined benefit plan wherein the contributions are charged
to the Profit and Loss Account of the year when the contributions to the fund are due and when services are
rendered by the employees. Further, an actuarial valuation is conducted by an independent actuary using the
Projected Unit Credit Method as at 31 March each year to determine the deficiency, if any, in the interest payable
on the contributions as compared to the interest liability as per the statutory rate and the shortfall if any due to
fluctuations in price or impairment, in the aggregate asset values of the Trust as compared to the market value.
Actuarial gains/losses are immediately taken to the Profit and Loss Account and are not deferred.
The Bank makes contribution as required by The Employees’ Provident Funds and Miscellaneous Provisions Act,
1952 to Employees’ Pension Scheme administered by the Regional Provident Fund Commissioner.
The overseas branches of the Bank and its eligible employees contribute a certain percentage of their salary
towards respective government schemes as per local regulatory guidelines. The contribution made by the
overseas branches is recognised in profit and loss account payment, as such contribution is in the nature of
defined contribution.
• Gratuity
The Bank contributes towards gratuity fund (defined benefit retirement plan) administered by various insurers for
eligible employees. Under this scheme, the settlement obligations remain with the Bank, although various insurers
administer the scheme and determine the contribution premium required to be paid by the Bank. The plan provides
a lump sum payment to vested employees at retirement or termination of employment based on the respective
employee’s salary and the years of employment with the Bank. Liability with regard to gratuity fund is accrued
based on actuarial valuation conducted by an independent actuary using the Projected Unit Credit Method as at
31 March each year. In respect of employees at overseas branches (other than expatriates) liability with regard to
gratuity is provided on the basis of a prescribed method as per local laws, wherever applicable. Actuarial gains/
losses are immediately taken to the Profit and Loss Account and are not deferred.
• Superannuation
Employees of the Bank are entitled to receive retirement benefits under the Bank’s Superannuation scheme either
under a cash-out option through salary or under a defined contribution plan. Through the defined contribution plan,
the Bank contributes annually a sum of 10% of the employee’s eligible annual basic salary to LIC, which undertakes
to pay the lump sum and annuity benefit payments pursuant to the scheme. Superannuation contributions are
recognised in the Profit and Loss Account in the period in which they accrue.
• National Pension Scheme (‘NPS’)
In respect of employees who opt for contribution to the ‘NPS’, the Bank contributes certain percentage of the total
basic salary of employees to the aforesaid scheme, a defined contribution plan, which is managed and administered
by pension fund management companies. NPS contributions are recognised in the Profit and Loss Account in the
period in which they accrue.
5.13 Reward points
The Bank runs a loyalty program which seeks to recognize and reward customers based on their relationship with
the Bank. Under the program, eligible customers are granted loyalty points redeemable in future, subject to certain
conditions. In addition, the Bank continues to grant reward points in respect of certain credit cards (not covered under
the loyalty program). The Bank estimates the provision for such loyalty/reward points using an actuarial method at
the Balance Sheet date through an independent actuary, which includes assumptions such as redemption rate, lapse
rate, discount rate, value of reward points etc. Provision for the said reward points is then made based on the actuarial
valuation report as furnished by the said independent actuary.
5.14 Taxation
Income tax expense is the aggregate amount of current tax and deferred tax charge. Current year taxes are determined
in accordance with the relevant provisions of Income tax Act, 1961 and considering the material principles set out in
Income Computation and Disclosure Standards to the extent applicable. Deferred income taxes reflect the impact of
current year timing differences between taxable income and accounting income for the year and reversal of timing
differences of earlier years.
Deferred tax is measured based on the tax rates and the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the Balance Sheet
date. Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset, if a legally enforceable right exists to set off assets against
liabilities representing current tax and the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relate to the taxes on income
levied by same governing taxation laws.
Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that there is reasonable certainty that sufficient future taxable
income will be available against which such deferred tax assets can be realised. The impact of changes in the deferred
tax assets and liabilities is recognised in the Profit and Loss Account.
Deferred tax assets are recognised and reassessed at each reporting date, based upon the Management’s judgement
as to whether realisation is considered as reasonably certain. Deferred tax assets are recognised on carry forward of
unabsorbed depreciation and tax losses only if there is virtual certainty supported by convincing evidence that such
deferred tax asset can be realised against future profits.
5.15 Share issue expenses
Share issue expenses are adjusted from Share Premium Account in terms of Section 52 of the Companies Act, 2013.
5.16 Corporate Social Responsibility
Expenditure towards Corporate Social Responsibility is recognised in the Profit and Loss account in accordance with the
provisions of the Companies Act, 2013.
5.17 Earnings per share
The Bank reports basic and diluted earnings per share in accordance with AS-20, Earnings per Share, as notified under
Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 read together with paragraph 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014 and
the Companies (Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2016. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the
net profit after tax by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding for the year.
191
Standalone
Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue equity
shares were exercised or converted during the year. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted average
number of equity shares and dilutive potential equity shares outstanding at the year end except where the results
are anti-dilutive.
5.18 Employee stock option scheme
The 2001 Employee Stock Option Scheme (‘the Scheme’) provides for grant of stock options on equity shares of the
Bank to employees and Directors of the Bank and its subsidiaries. The Scheme is in accordance with the Securities and
Exchange Board of India (SEBI) (Employees Stock Option Scheme and Employee Stock Purchase Scheme) Guidelines,
1999 (‘the Guidelines’). These Guidelines have been repealed and were substituted by Securities and Exchange Board of
India (Share Based Employee Benefits and sweat equity) Regulations, 2021. The Scheme is in compliance with the said
regulations. Options are granted at an exercise price, which is equal to the fair market price of the underlying equity
shares at the date of the grant. The fair market price is the latest available closing price, prior to the date of grant, on the
stock exchange on which the shares of the Bank are listed. If the shares are listed on more than one stock exchange, then
the stock exchange where there is highest trading volume on the said date is considered.
The Bank followed intrinsic value method to account for its stock based employee compensation plans for all the options
granted till the accounting period ending 31 March, 2021.
As per RBI guidelines, for options granted after 31 March, 2021, the Bank follows the fair value method and recognizes
the fair value of such options computed using the Black-Scholes model without reducing estimated forfeitures, as
compensation expense over the vesting period.
5.19 Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets
In accordance with AS-29 “Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets”, provision is recognised when the
Bank has a present obligation as a result of past event where it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required
to settle the obligation, in respect of which a reliable estimate can be made. Provisions are not discounted to its present
value and are determined based on best estimate required to settle the obligation at the Balance Sheet date. These are
reviewed at each Balance Sheet date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimates.
A disclosure of contingent liability is made when there is:
• a possible obligation arising from a past event, the existence of which will be confirmed by occurrence or non-
occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not within the control of the Bank; or
• a present obligation arising from a past event which is not recognised as it is not probable that an outflow of resources
will be required to settle the obligation or a reliable estimate of the amount of the obligation cannot be made.
When there is a possible obligation or a present obligation in respect of which the likelihood of outflow of resources is
remote, no provision or disclosure is made.
Contingent assets are not recognised in the financial statements. However, contingent assets are assessed continually
and if it is virtually certain that an inflow of economic benefits will arise, the asset and related income are recognised in
the period in which the change occurs.
5.20 Accounting for dividend
As per AS-4 ‘Contingencies and Events occurring after the Balance sheet date’ as notified by the Ministry of Corporate
Affairs through amendments to Companies (Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2016, dated 30 March, 2016, the
Bank does not account for proposed dividend as a liability through appropriation from the profit and loss account. The
same is recognised in the year of actual payout post approval of shareholders. However, the Bank reckons proposed
dividend in determining capital funds in computing the capital adequacy ratio.
5.21 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, balances with RBI, balances with other banks and money at call
and short notice.
2. COVID-19
India is emerging from the after effect of COVID-19 virus, a global pandemic that affected the world economy over the
last two years. The extent to which any new wave of COVID-19 will impact the Bank’s operations and asset quality will
depend on the future developments, which are highly uncertain.
The Bank continues to hold provisions aggregating to `5,012 crores as at 31 March, 2022 against the potential impact
of COVID-19 (other than provisions held for restructuring under COVID-19 norms) based on the information available at
this point in time. The provisions held by the Bank are in excess of the RBI prescribed norms.

c) Disclosure on risk exposure in Derivatives
Qualitative disclosures:
(a) Structure and organisation for management of risk in derivatives trading, the scope and nature of risk
measurement, risk reporting and risk monitoring systems, policies for hedging and/or mitigating risk and
strategies and processes for monitoring the continuing effectiveness of hedges/mitigants:
Derivatives are financial instruments whose characteristics are derived from an underlying asset, or from interest
and exchange rates or indices. The Bank undertakes over the counter and Exchange Traded derivative transactions
for Balance Sheet management and also for proprietary trading/market making whereby the Bank offers OTC
derivative products to the customers to enable them to hedge their interest rate and currency risks within the
prevalent regulatory guidelines.
Proprietary trading includes Exchange Traded Currency Options, Interest Rate Futures, Currency Futures and
Rupee Interest Rate Swaps under different benchmarks (viz. MIBOR, Modified MIFOR, LIBOR, ARR and INBMK),
Currency Options, Currency Swaps and Non Deliverable Options. The Bank also undertakes transactions
in Cross Currency Swaps, Principal Only Swaps, Coupon Only Swaps, Currency Options, Interest Rate Swaps,
Exotic Derivatives and Long Term Forex Contracts (LTFX) for hedging its Balance Sheet and also offers them
to its customers. These transactions expose the Bank to various risks, primarily credit, market, legal, reputation
and operational risk. The Bank has adopted the following mechanism for managing risks arising out of the
derivative transactions.
There is a functional separation between the Treasury Front Office, Treasury Mid Office and Treasury Back Office
to undertake derivative transactions. The customer and interbank related derivative transactions are originated
by Derivative sales and Treasury Front Office team respectively which ensures compliance with the trade
origination requirements as per the Bank’s policy and the RBI guidelines. The Market Risk Group within the Bank’s
Risk Department independently identifies, measures and monitors the market risks associated with derivative
transactions and apprises the Asset Liability Management Committee (ALCO) and the Risk Management Committee
of the Board (RMC) on the compliance with the risk limits. The Treasury Back Office undertakes activities such as
trade validation, confirmation, settlement, ISDA and related documentation, post deal documentation, accounting,
valuation and other MIS reporting.
The derivative transactions are governed by the Derivative policy, Suitability and Appropriateness Policy for
derivative products, Market risk management policy, Hedging policy and the Asset Liability Management (ALM)
policy of the Bank as well as by the extant RBI guidelines. The Bank has implemented policy on customer suitability
& appropriateness to ensure that derivatives transactions entered into are appropriate and suitable to the customer.
The Bank has put in place a detailed process flow on documentation for customer derivative transactions for
effective management of operational/reputation/compliance risk.
Various risk limits are set up and actual exposures are monitored vis-à-vis the limits allocated. These limits are set
up taking into account market volatility, risk appetite, business strategy and management experience. Risk limits
are in place for risk parameters viz. PV01, VaR, Stop Loss, Delta, Gamma and Vega. Actual positions are monitored
against these limits on a daily basis and breaches, if any, are dealt with in accordance with board approved Risk
Appetite Statement. Risk assessment of the portfolio is undertaken periodically. The Bank ensures that the Gross
PV01 (Price value of a basis point) position arising out of all non-option rupee derivative contracts are within
0.25% of net worth of the Bank as on Balance Sheet date.
Hedging transactions are undertaken by the Bank to protect the variability in the fair value or the cash flow of the
underlying Balance Sheet item. These deals are accounted on an accrual basis except the swap designated with
an asset/liability that is carried at market value or lower of cost or market value. In that case, the swap is marked
to market with the resulting gain or loss recorded as an adjustment to the market value of designated asset or
liability. These transactions are tested for hedge effectiveness and in case any transaction fails the test, the same
is re-designated as a trading deal and appropriate accounting treatment is followed.
(b) Accounting policy for recording hedge and non-hedge transactions, recognition of income, premiums and
discounts, valuation of outstanding contracts:
The Hedging Policy of the Bank governs the use of derivatives for hedging purpose. Subject to the prevailing RBI
guidelines, the Bank deals in derivatives for hedging fixed rate and floating rate coupon or foreign currency assets/
liabilities. Transactions for hedging and market making purposes are recorded separately. For hedge transactions,
the Bank identifies the hedged item (asset or liability) at the inception of the transaction itself. The effectiveness
is ascertained at the time of inception of the hedge and periodically thereafter. Hedge derivative transactions are
accounted for in accordance with the hedge accounting principles. Derivatives for market making purpose are
marked to market and the resulting gain/loss is recorded in the Profit and Loss Account. The premium on option
contracts is accounted for as per FEDAI guidelines. Derivative transactions are covered under International Swaps
and Derivatives Association (ISDA) master agreements with respective counterparties. The exposure on account
of derivative transactions is computed as per the RBI guidelines and is marked against the Loan Equivalent Risk
(LER) limits approved for the respective counterparties.

Apart from the above, the compensation structure for MD & CEO and WTDs is aligned to RBI’s guidelines for
sound compensation practices issued in November 2019 and addresses the general principles of:
- Effective and independent governance and monitoring of compensation
- Alignment of compensation with prudent risk-taking through well designed and consistent
compensation structures
- Clear and timely disclosure to facilitate supervisory oversight by all stakeholders
225
Standalone
Accordingly, the compensation policy for MD & CEO and WTDs seeks to:
a) Ensure that the compensation, in terms of structure and total amount, is in line with the best practices,
as well as competitive vis-à-vis that of peer banks
b) Establish the linkage of compensation with individual performance as well as achievement of the
corporate objectives of the Bank
c) Include an appropriate variable pay component tied to the achievement of pre-established objectives
in line with Bank’s scorecard while ensuring that the compensation is aligned with prudent risk taking
d) Encourage attainment of long term shareholder returns through inclusion of equity linked long-term
incentives as part of compensation
Compensation is structured in terms of fixed pay, variable pay and employee stock options (for selective
employees), with a strong linkage of variable pay to performance. The compensation policy of the Bank is
approved by the Nomination and Remuneration Committee. Additional approval from Shareholders and RBI
is obtained specifically for compensation of MD & CEO and WTDs.
Whether the remuneration committee reviewed the firm’s remuneration policy during the past year, and if so, an
overview of any changes that were made:
Reserve Bank of India has released revised guidelines on Compensation of Whole Time Directors/ Chief Executive
Officers/ Material Risk Takers and Control Function staff on 4 November, 2019.
Bank’s remuneration policy was reviewed by the Nomination and Remuneration Committee of the Bank in FY2021
in order to align with the revised RBI guidelines. These policy guidelines are applicable for pay cycles beginning
from 1 April, 2020. Summary of changes made are listed below:
• At least 50% of total compensation i.e. Fixed Pay plus Total Variable Pay shall be variable.
• Value of stock options will be included in definition of ‘Total Variable Pay’.
• Total Variable Pay for the MD & CEO/ Whole-time Directors/ Material Risk Takers of the Bank would be
capped at 300% of Fixed Pay.
• If the Total Variable Pay is up to 200% of the Fixed Pay, a minimum of 50% of the Variable pay; and in case
Variable Pay is above 200%, a minimum of 67% of the Variable Pay shall be paid via employee stock options.
• Minimum 60% of the Total Variable Pay shall be deferred over 3 years. If cash component is part of Total
Variable Pay, at least 50% of the cash component of variable pay should also be deferred over 3 years. In
cases where the cash component of Total variable pay is under `25 lakh, variable pay shall not be deferred.
• All the fixed items of compensation, including retiral benefits and perquisites, will be treated as
part of Fixed Pay.
• Qualitative and quantitative criteria defined for identification of Material Risk Takers (MRTs).
• Specific guidelines on application of malus and clawback clauses.
Overview of changes made in Bank’s remuneration policy in FY2022:
Guidelines on application of malus and clawback clauses have been further detailed with the addition of
following points:
• Representative scenarios added under which malus and clawback clauses can be invoked
• Process to review and invoke application of malus and clawback clauses further detailed
A discussion of how the Bank ensures that risk, internal audit and compliance employees are remunerated
independently of the businesses they oversee:
The Bank ensures that risk, internal audit and compliance employees are remunerated independently of the
businesses they oversee and is guided by the individual employee performance. The remuneration is determined
on the basis of relevant risk measures included in the Balanced Scorecard / key deliverables of staff in these
functions. The parameters reviewed for performance based rewards are independent of performance of the
business area they oversee and commensurate with their individual role in the Bank. Additionally, the ratio of fixed
and variable compensation is weighed towards fixed compensation in case of employees in risk, internal audit, and
compliance functions.
c) Description of the ways in which current and future risks are taken into account in the remuneration
processes:
An overview of the key risks that the Bank takes into account when implementing remuneration measures:
The business activity of the Bank is undertaken within the limits of risk measures to achieve the financial plan. The
Financial Perspective in the Bank’s Balanced Score Card (BSC) contains metrics pertaining to growth, profitability
and asset quality. These metrics along with other metrics in customer, internal process and compliance and people
perspective are taken into account while arriving at the remuneration decisions. The metrics on internal process
and compliance ensure due weightage to non – financial risk that bank may be exposed to.
An overview of the nature and type of key measures used to take account of these risks, including risk
difficult to measure:
The Bank has a robust system of measuring and reviewing these risks. The risk parameters are a part of the
Balanced Score Card used for setting of performance objectives and for measuring performance which includes,
besides financial performance, adherence to internal processes, compliance and people perspectives. Weightage
is placed on not only financial or quantitative achievement of objectives but also on qualitative aspects detailing
how the objectives were achieved.
A discussion of the ways in which these measures affect remuneration:
The relevant risk measures are included in the scorecards of MD & CEO and WTDs. Inclusion of the above mentioned
measures ensures that performance parameters are aligned to risk measures at the time of performance evaluation.
The Nomination and Remuneration Committee takes into consideration all the above aspects while assessing
organisational and individual performance and making compensation related recommendations to the Board.
A discussion of how the nature and type of these measures have changed over the past year and reasons for the
changes, as well as the impact of changes on remuneration:
The Bank continued to track key metrics across financial, customer, internal process and compliance and people
perspective as part of FY22 BSC. For FY2021-22, metrics linked to Bank’s strategy, with focus on health metrics,
sustainability, specifically on capital position and building distinctiveness were incorporated. Further, critical
deliverables were included to drive progress as per the Bank’s Growth, Profitability Score strategy.
d) Description of the ways in which the Bank seeks to link performance during a performance measurement period
with levels of remuneration:
The Bank’s performance management and compensation philosophies are structured to support the achievement
of the Bank’s on-going business objectives by rewarding achievement of objectives linked directly to its strategic
business priorities. These strategic priorities are cascaded through annualised objectives to the employees.
The Bank follows the Balanced Scorecard approach in designing its performance management system. Adequate
attention is given to the robust goal setting process to ensure alignment of individual objectives to support the
achievement of business strategy, financial and non-financial goals across and through the organisation. The non-
financial goals for employees include customer service, process improvement, adherence to risk and compliance
norms, operations and process control, learning and knowledge development.
An overview of main performance metrics for Bank, top level business lines and individuals:
The Bank follows a Balanced Scorecard approach for measuring performance for the Bank, top business lines
and individuals. The approach broadly comprises financial, customer, internal processes, compliance, and people
perspectives and includes parameters on revenue and profitability, business growth, customer initiatives,
operational efficiencies, regulatory compliance, risk management and people management.
A discussion of how amounts of individual remuneration are linked to the Bank-wide and individual performance:
The Bank’s remuneration practices are underpinned by principles of meritocracy and fairness. The remuneration
system strives to maintain the ability to attract, retain, reward and motivate the talent in order to enable the Bank
to attain its strategic objectives within the increasingly competitive context in which it operates. The Bank’s pay-
for-performance approach strives to ensure both internal and external equity in line with emerging market trends.
However, the business model and affordability form the overarching boundary conditions.
The Bank follows a Balanced Scorecard approach for measuring performance at senior levels. The Balanced scorecard
parameters for individuals are cascaded from the Bank’s Balanced Scorecard. The Management Committee or
the Nomination and Remuneration Committee reviews the achievements against the set of parameters which
determines the performance of the individuals.
227
Standalone
For all other employees, performance appraisals are conducted annually and initiated by the employee with self-
appraisal. The immediate supervisor reviews the appraisal ratings in a joint consultation meeting with the employee
and assigns the performance rating. The final ratings are discussed by a Moderation Committee comprising of
senior officials of the Bank. Both relative and absolute individual performances are considered for the moderation
process. Individual fixed pay increases, variable pay and ESOPs are linked to the final performance ratings.
A discussion of the measures the Bank will in general implement to adjust remuneration in the event that
performance metrics are weak:
In cases where the performance metrics are weak or not well defined to measure the performance effectively,
the Bank uses discretion to reward such employees. The remuneration is then influenced by the operational
performance parameters of the Bank along with individual performance achievement.
Whilst determining fixed and variable remuneration, relevant risk measures are included in scorecards of senior
employees. The Financial Perspective in the Bank’s BSC contains metrics pertaining to growth, profitability and
asset quality. These metrics along with other metrics in customer, internal process and compliance and people
perspective are taken into account while arriving at the remuneration decisions. The metrics on internal process
and compliance ensure due weightage to non – financial risk that bank may be exposed to.
As a prudent measure, for Material Risk Takers, a portion of variable pay if it exceeds a certain threshold is deferred
and is paid proportionately over a period of 3 years. The deferred variable pay amount of reference year would be
held back in case of any misrepresentation or gross inaccuracy resulting in a wrong risk assessment.
e) Description of the ways in which the Bank seeks to adjust remuneration to take account of the longer term
performance:
i) Bank’s deferral and vesting of variable remuneration and, if the fraction of variable remuneration that is
deferred differs across employees or groups of employees, a description of the factors that determine the
fraction and their relative importance:
For MD&CEO, Whole Time Directors and other Material Risk Takers of the Bank, minimum 60% of the
Total Variable Pay (including Cash Variable Pay and Stock Options) is deferred over 3 years. In case the
cash component is part of Total Variable Pay and exceeds `25 lakhs, at least 50% of the cash component of
variable pay is also deferred over 3 years.
The total variable pay for MD&CEO, Whole Time Directors and other Material Risk Takers of the Bank is
subject to malus and clawback clauses, as defined in the Remuneration Policy of the Bank.
ii) Bank’s policy and criteria for adjusting deferred remuneration before vesting and after vesting through claw
back arrangements:
The Total Variable Pay for MD&CEO, Whole Time Directors and other Material Risk Takers of the Bank is
subject to malus and clawback clauses, which are defined in the Remuneration Policy of the Bank. Detailed
scenarios under which said clauses can be applied, such as event of an enquiry determining gross negligence
or breach of integrity, or significant deterioration in financial performance are defined in the Remuneration
Policy of the Bank.
f) Description of the different forms of variable remuneration that the Bank utilizes and the rationale for using
these different forms:
An overview of the forms of variable remuneration offered:
• Variable Pay: Variable Pay is linked to corporate performance, business performance and individual
performance and ensures differential pay based on the performance levels of employees
• Employee Stock Options (ESOPs): ESOPs are given to selective set of employees at senior levels based on
their level of performance and role. ESOP scheme has an inbuilt deferred vesting design which helps in
directing long term performance orientation among employees
A discussion of the use of different forms of variable remuneration and, if the mix of different forms of variable
remuneration differs across employees or group of employees, a description of the factors that determine the mix
and their relative importance:
Variable pay in the form of performance based bonus is paid out annually and is linked to performance achievement
against balanced performance measures and aligned with the principles of meritocracy. The proportion of
variable pay in total pay shall be higher at senior management levels. The payment of all forms of variable pay is
governed by the affordability of the Bank and based on profitability and cost income ratios. At senior management
levels (and for certain employees with potential to cause material impact on risk exposure), a portion of variable
compensation may be paid out in a deferred manner in order to drive prudent behaviour as well as long term
& sustainable performance orientation. Long term variable pay is administered in the form of ESOPs with an
objective of enabling employee participation in the business as an active stakeholder and to usher in an ‘owner-
manager’ culture. The quantum of grant of stock options is determined and approved by the Nomination and
Remuneration Committee, in terms of the said Regulations and in line with best practices, subject to the approval
of RBI. The current ESOP design has an inbuilt deferral intended to spread and manage risk.

Fair Value Methodology
In line with RBI clarification on Guidelines on Compensation of Whole Time Directors/Chief Executive Officers /Material
Risk Takers and Control Function Staff on 30 August, 2021, the Bank has changed its accounting policy from the intrinsic
value method to the fair value method for all share-linked instruments granted after 31 March, 2021 and consequently
recognized the fair value of options computed using the Black-Scholes model, without reducing estimated forfeitures,
as compensation expense over the vesting period. During the year, the Bank has recognised ESOP compensation cost of
`129.79 crores for options granted to employees of the Bank and recovered `18.81 crores from subsidiaries for options
granted to their employees and deputed staff.
The impact on reported net profit and EPS in respect of options granted prior to 31 March, 2021 considering the fair
value based method as prescribed in the Guidance Note on ‘Accounting for Employee Share-based Payments’ issued by
the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India is given below:
No cost has been incurred by the Bank in respect of ESOPs granted prior to March 2021 to the employees of the Bank
and employees of subsidiaries which are valued under the intrinsic value method.
The fair value of the options is estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes options pricing model, with the
following assumptions:
Volatility is the measure of the amount by which a price has fluctuated or is expected to fluctuate during a period.
The measure of volatility used in the Black-Scholes options pricing model is the annualised standard deviation of the
continuously compounded rates of return on the stock over a period of time. For calculating volatility, the daily volatility
of the stock prices on the National Stock Exchange, over a period prior to the date of grant, corresponding with the
expected life of the options has been considered.
The weighted average fair value of options granted during the year ended 31 March, 2022 is `209.47 (previous year `143.45).
On 22 March, 2022, the Nomination and Remuneration Committee of the Board of Directors of the Bank has approved
the grant of upto 17,500,000 stock options to eligible employees. As on 31 March, 2022, there have been no allotments
of options under this grant. Accordingly, these options have not been considered in the above disclosure.
5.3. Proposed Dividend
The Board of Directors, in their meeting held on 28 April, 2022 have proposed a final dividend of `1 per equity share
amounting to `306.97 crores. The proposal is subject to the approval of shareholders at the Annual General Meeting.
In terms of revised Accounting Standard (AS) 4 ‘Contingencies and Events occurring after the Balance Sheet date’ as
notified by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs through amendments to Companies (Accounting Standards) Amendment
Rules, 2016, dated 30 March, 2016, such proposed dividend has not been recognised as a liability as on 31 March, 2022.
5.4. Segmental reporting
The business of the Bank is divided into four segments: Treasury, Retail Banking, Corporate/Wholesale Banking and
Other Banking Business. These segments have been identified based on the RBI’s revised guidelines on Segment
Reporting issued on 18 April, 2007 vide Circular No. DBOD.No.BP.BC.81/21.04.018/2006-07. The principal activities
of these segments are as under:
Treasury Treasury operations include investments in sovereign and corporate debt, equity and mutual funds,
trading operations, derivative trading and foreign exchange operations on the proprietary account
and for customers. The Treasury segment also includes the central funding unit.
Retail Banking Constitutes lending to individuals/small businesses through the branch network and other delivery
channels subject to the orientation, nature of product, granularity of the exposure and the quantum
thereof. Retail Banking activities also include liability products, card services, internet banking, mobile
banking, ATM services, depository, financial advisory services and NRI services.
Corporate/Wholesale Banking Includes corporate relationships not included under Retail Banking, corporate advisory services,
placements and syndication, project appraisals, capital market related services and cash management
services.
Other Banking Business Includes para banking activities like third party product distribution and other banking transactions
not covered under any of the above three segments.
Unallocated assets and liabilities - All items which are reckoned at an enterprise level are classified under this segment
such as deferred tax, money received against share warrants, tax paid in advance net of provision, provision for COVID-19
over and above regulatory requirement etc.
Revenues of the Treasury segment primarily consist of fees and gains or losses from trading operations and interest
income on the investment portfolio. The principal expenses of the segment consist of interest expense on funds borrowed
from external sources and other internal segments, premises expenses, personnel costs, other direct overheads and
allocated expenses.
Revenues of the Corporate/Wholesale Banking segment consist of interest and fees earned on loans given to customers
falling under this segment and fees arising from transaction services and merchant banking activities such as syndication
and debenture trusteeship. Revenues of the Retail Banking segment are derived from interest earned on loans classified
235
Standalone
under this segment, fees for banking and advisory services, ATM interchange fees and cards products. Expenses of the
Corporate/Wholesale Banking and Retail Banking segments primarily comprise interest expense on deposits and funds
borrowed from other internal segments, infrastructure and premises expenses for operating the branch network and
other delivery channels, personnel costs, other direct overheads and allocated expenses.
Segment income includes earnings from external customers and from funds transferred to the other segments. Segment
result includes revenue as reduced by interest expense and operating expenses and provisions, if any, for that segment.
Segment-wise income and expenses include certain allocations. Inter segment interest income and interest expense
represent the transfer price received from and paid to the Central Funding Unit (CFU) respectively. For this purpose,
the funds transfer pricing mechanism presently followed by the Bank, which is based on historical matched maturity
and internal benchmarks, has been used. Operating expenses other than those directly attributable to segments are
allocated to the segments based on an activity-based costing methodology. All activities in the Bank are segregated
segment-wise and allocated to the respective segment.
Effective 1 April, 2021, the Bank has made a change to its segmental reporting by realigning non-retail term deposits
from the Treasury segment to the Retail Banking segment. This segment reporting change reflects a corresponding
change in how the Bank manages this portfolio and reviews financial information in order to allocate resources and assess
performance. In conjunction with this change, certain prior period numbers have been recast to conform to the new
segment reporting structure. There is no impact of this change on the aggregate segmental profit before tax of the Bank.

The estimates of future salary increases considered in actuarial valuation take account of inflation, seniority, promotion
and other relevant factors.
The expected rate of return on plan assets is based on the average long-term rate of return expected on investments of
the Fund during the estimated term of the obligations.
As the contribution expected to be paid to the plan during the annual period beginning after the balance sheet date is
based on various internal/external factors, a best estimate of the contribution is not determinable.
The above information is as certified by the actuary and relied upon by the auditors.
Provision towards probable impact on account of Code of Social Security 2020
The Code on Social Security 2020 (‘Code’) relating to employee benefits during employment and post-employment
received Presidential assent in September 2020. The Code has been published in the Gazette of India. However, the date
on which the Code will come into effect has not been notified and the final rules/interpretation have also not yet been
issued. The Bank has carried out an impact assessment of the gratuity liability based on an actuarial valuation and on a
prudent basis holds a provision of `225.30 crores as on 31 March, 2022 (`208.00 crores as on 31 March, 2021). This is
