Schedules to the Financial Statements
For the year ended March 31, 2014
Schedule 17 - Significant accounting policies appended to and forming part of the financial statements for the year
ended March 31, 2014.
A BACKGROUND
HDFC Bank Limited (‘HDFC Bank’ or ‘the Bank’), incorporated in Mumbai, India is a publicly held banking company engaged
in providing a range of banking and financial services including commercial banking and treasury operations. The Bank is
governed by the Banking Regulation Act, 1949. The Bank has overseas branch operations in Bahrain and Hong Kong.
B BASIS OF PREPARATION
The financial statements have been prepared and presented under the historical cost convention and accrual basis of
accounting, unless otherwise stated and are in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in India (‘GAAP’),
statutory requirements prescribed under the Banking Regulation Act 1949, circulars and guidelines issued by the Reserve
Bank of India (‘RBI’) from time to time, Accounting Standards (‘AS’) notified under the Companies (Accounting Standard)
Rules, 2006 to the extent applicable and current practices prevailing within the banking industry in India.
Use of estimates :
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the management to make estimates and
assumptions considered in the reported amounts of assets and liabilities (including contingent liabilities) as of the date of
the financial statements and the reported income and expenses for the reporting period. Management believes that the
estimates used in the preparation of the financial statements are prudent and reasonable. Actual results could differ from
these estimates. Any revision in the accounting estimates is recognised prospectively in the current and future periods.
C PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
1 Investments
Classification :
In accordance with the RBI guidelines on investment classification and valuation, Investments are classified on the date of
purchase into “Held for Trading” (‘HFT’), “Available for Sale” (‘AFS’) and “Held to Maturity” (‘HTM’) categories (hereinafter
called “categories”). Subsequent shifting amongst the categories is done in accordance with the RBI guidelines. Under
each of these categories, investments are further classified under six groups (hereinafter called “groups”) - Government
Securities, Other Approved Securities, Shares, Debentures and Bonds, Investments in Subsidiaries / Joint ventures and
Other Investments.
Recording purchase and sale transactions in securities is done following ‘Settlement Date’ accounting, except in the case of
equity shares where ‘Trade Date’ accounting is followed.
Basis of classification :
Investments that are held principally for resale within 90 days from the date of purchase are classified under HFT category.
Investments which the Bank intends to hold till maturity are classified as HTM securities. Investments in the equity of
subsidiaries / joint ventures are categorised as HTM in accordance with the RBI guidelines. Investments which are not
classified in the above categories are classified under AFS category.
Acquisition cost :
In determining acquisition cost of an investment :
 ™ 7gd`ZgV\Z!Xdbb^hh^dc!ZiX#eV^YVii]Zi^bZd[VXfj^h^i^dc!VgZgZXd\c^hZY^ci]ZHiViZbZcid[EgdÃiVcYAdhh#

 ™ 8dhid[^ckZhibZcih^hWVhZYdci]ZlZ^\]iZYVkZgV\ZXdhibZi]dY#
Disposal of investments :
Profit / Loss on sale of investments under the aforesaid three categories is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
The profit from sale of investment under HTM category, net of taxes and transfer to statutory reserve is appropriated from
Statement of Profit and Loss to “Capital Reserve” in accordance with the RBI guidelines.
Short sale :
The Bank undertakes short sale transactions in Central Government dated securities in accordance with RBI guidelines.
The short position is reflected as the amount received on sale and is classified under ‘Other Liabilities’. The short position is
marked to market and loss, if any, is charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss while gain, if any, is ignored. Profit / Loss
on settlement of the short position is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

Schedules to the Financial Statements
For the year ended March 31, 2014
Valuation :
Investments classified under AFS and HFT categories are marked to market as per the RBI guidelines.
Traded investments are valued based on the trades / quotes on the recognised stock exchanges, price list of RBI or prices
declared by Primary Dealers Association of India (‘PDAI’) jointly with Fixed Income Money Market and Derivatives Association
(‘FIMMDA’), periodically.
The market value of unquoted government securities which qualify for determining the Statutory Liquidity Ratio (‘SLR’)
included in the AFS and HFT categories is computed as per the Yield-to-Maturity (‘YTM’) rates published by FIMMDA.
The valuation of other unquoted fixed income securities (viz. State Government securities, Other approved securities, Bonds
and Debentures) and preference shares, wherever linked to the YTM rates, is done with a mark-up (reflecting associated
credit and liquidity risk) over the YTM rates for government securities published by FIMMDA.
Special Bonds such as Oil Bonds, Fertilizer Bonds etc. which are directly issued by Government of India (‘GOI’) that do not
qualify for SLR are also valued by applying the mark up above the corresponding yield on GOI securities.
Unquoted equity shares are valued at the break-up value, if the latest balance sheet is available or at ` 1 as per the RBI
guidelines.
Units of mutual funds are valued at the latest repurchase price / net asset value declared by the mutual fund.
Treasury Bills, Commercial Papers and Certificate of Deposits being discounted instruments, are valued at carrying cost.
Security receipts are valued as per the Net Asset Value provided by the issuing Asset Reconstruction Company from time
to time.
Net depreciation in the value, if any, compared to the acquisition cost, in any of the six groups, is charged to the Statement
of Profit and Loss. The net appreciation, if any, in any of the six groups is not recognised except to the extent of depreciation
already provided. The valuation of investments includes securities under repo transactions. The book value of individual
securities is not changed after the valuation of investments.
Investments classified under HTM category are carried at their acquisition cost and not marked to market. Any premium
on acquisition is amortised over the remaining maturity period of the security on a constant yield to maturity basis. Such
amortisation of premium is adjusted against interest income under the head “Income from investments” as per the RBI
guidelines. Any diminution, other than temporary, in the value of investments in subsidiaries / joint ventures is provided for.
Non-performing investments are identified and depreciation / provision is made thereon based on the RBI guidelines. The
depreciation / provision is not set off against the appreciation in respect of other performing securities. Interest on non-
performing investments is not recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss until received.
Repo and reverse repo transactions :
In accordance with the RBI guidelines Repo and Reverse Repo transactions in government securities and corporate debt
securities (excluding transactions conducted under Liquidity Adjustment Facility (‘LAF’) and Marginal Standby Facility
(‘MSF’) with RBI) are reflected as borrowing and lending transactions respectively. Borrowing cost on repo transactions is
accounted for as interest expense and revenue on reverse repo transactions is accounted for as interest income.
In respect of repo transactions under LAF and MSF with RBI, amount borrowed from RBI is credited to investment account
and reversed on maturity of the transaction. Costs thereon are accounted for as interest expense. In respect of reverse repo
transactions under LAF, amount lent to RBI is debited to investment account and reversed on maturity of the transaction.
Revenues thereon are accounted for as interest income.
2 Advances
Classification :
Advances are classified as performing and non-performing based on the RBI guidelines and are stated net of bills
rediscounted, specific provisions, interest in suspense for non-performing advances, claims received from Export Credit
Guarantee Corporation, provisions for funded interest term loan classified as non-performing advances and provisions in
lieu of diminution in the fair value of restructured assets. Interest on non-performing advances is transferred to an interest
suspense account and not recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss until received.
Provisioning :
Specific loan loss provisions in respect of non-performing advances are made based on management’s assessment of the
degree of impairment of wholesale and retail advances, subject to the minimum provisioning level prescribed by the RBI.

HDFC Bank Limited Annual Report 2013-14 44


Schedules to the Financial Statements
For the year ended March 31, 2014
The specific provision levels for retail non-performing assets are also based on the nature of product and delinquency levels.
Specific loan loss provisions in respect of non-performing advances are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss and
included under Provisions and Contingencies.
Recoveries from bad debts written-off are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss and included under Other Income.
In relation to non-performing derivative contracts, as per the extant RBI guidelines, the Bank makes provision for the entire
amount of overdue and future receivables relating to positive marked to market value of the said derivative contracts.
The Bank maintains general provision for standard assets including credit exposures computed as per the current
marked to market values of interest rate and foreign exchange derivative contracts, and gold at levels stipulated by RBI
from time to time. In the case of overseas branches, general provision on standard advances is maintained at the higher
of the levels stipulated by the respective overseas regulator or RBI. Provision for standard assets is included under Other
Liabilities.
Provisions made in excess of these regulatory requirements or provisions which are not made with respect to specific
non-performing assets are categorised as floating provisions. Creation of floating provisions is considered by the Bank
up to a level approved by the Board of Directors. In accordance with the RBI guidelines and as per policy approved by
the Board, floating provisions are not reversed by credit to Statement of Profit and Loss. Floating provisions are used only
for contingencies under extraordinary circumstances wherein these are used for making specific provisions for impaired
accounts. Floating provisions have been included under Other Liabilities.
Further to the provisions required to be held according to the asset classification status, provisions are held for individual
country exposures (other than for home country exposure). Countries are categorised into risk categories as per Export
Credit Guarantee Corporation of India Ltd. (‘ECGC’) guidelines and provisioning is done in respect of that country where the
net funded exposure is one percent or more of the Bank’s total assets.
In addition to the above, the Bank on a prudential basis makes provisions on advances or exposures which are not NPAs,
but has reasons to believe on the basis of the extant environment or specific information, the possible slippage of a specific
advance or a group of advances or exposures or potential exposures. These are classified as contingent provisions and
included under Other Liabilities.
The Bank considers a restructured account as one where the Bank, for economic or legal reasons relating to the borrower’s
financial difficulty, grants to the borrower concessions that the Bank would not otherwise consider. Restructuring would
normally involve modification of terms of the advance / securities, which would generally include, among others, alteration
of repayment period / repayable amount / the amount of installments / rate of interest (due to reasons other than competitive
reasons). Restructured accounts are classified as such by the Bank only upon approval and implementation of the
restructuring package. Necessary provision for diminution in the fair value of a restructured account is made. Restructuring
of an account is done at a borrower level.
3 Securitisation and transfer of assets
The Bank securitises out its receivables, subject to the minimum holding period (‘MHP’) criteria and the minimum retention
requirements (‘MRR’) of RBI, to Special Purpose Vehicles (‘SPVs’) in securitisation transactions. Such securitised-out
receivables are de-recognised in the balance sheet when they are sold (true sale criteria being fully met with) and consideration
is received by the Bank. Sales / transfers that do not meet these criteria for surrender of control are accounted for as secured
borrowings. In respect of receivable pools securitised-out, the Bank provides liquidity and credit enhancements, as specified
by the rating agencies, in the form of cash collaterals / guarantees and / or by subordination of cash flows, not exceeding
20% of the total securitised instruments, in line with RBI guidelines. The Bank also acts as a servicing agent for receivable
pools securitised-out.
The Bank also enters into transactions for transfer of standard assets through the direct assignment of cash flows, which
are similar to asset-backed securitisation transactions through the SPV route, except that such portfolios of receivables
are assigned directly to the purchaser and are not represented by Pass through Certificates (‘PTCs’), subject to the RBI
prescribed MHP criteria and the MRR. The RBI issued addendum guidelines on securitisation of standard assets vide its
circular dated May 7, 2012. Accordingly, the Bank does not provide liquidity or credit enhancements on the direct assignment
transactions undertaken subsequent to these guidelines.
Pursuant to these guidelines, the Bank amortises any profit received in cash for every individual securitisation or direct
assignment transaction at the end of every financial year. This amortisation is calculated as the maximum of either of the
three parameters stated below :

provisions, if any, and direct write-offs made on the MRR and any other exposures to the securitisation transaction
(other than credit enhancing interest only strip); or

during the year as a proportion to the amount of unamortised principal at the beginning of the year; or

the direct assignment transaction.
In relation to securitisation transactions undertaken prior to the aforementioned RBI guidelines, including those undertaken
through the direct assignment route, the Bank continues to amortise the profit / premium that arose on account of sale of
receivables over the life of the securities sold, in accordance with the RBI guidelines on securitisation of standard assets
issued vide its circular dated February 1, 2006.
Any loss arising on account of sale of receivables is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss for the period in which
the sale occurs in accordance with the said RBI guidelines.
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.
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 Statement of Profit and Loss. If the sale is for a value
higher than the net book value, the excess provision is not reversed but is utilised to meet the shortfall / loss on account of
sale of other non-performing advances. The RBI issued new guidelines on sale of non-performing advances on February 26,
2014. In accordance with these guidelines, if the sale of non-performing advances is at a price below the net book value, the
shortfall is charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss spread over a period of two years. If the sale is for a value higher than
the net book value, the excess provision is credited to the Statement of Profit and Loss in the year the amounts are received.
The Bank invests in PTCs issued by other SPVs. These are accounted for at the deal value and are classified as investments.
The Bank also buys loans through the direct assignment route which are classified as advances. These are carried at
acquisition cost unless it is more than the face value, in which case the premium is amortised based on effective interest
rate (EIR) method.
4 Fixed assets and depreciation
Fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation as adjusted for impairment, if any. Cost includes cost of
purchase and all expenditure like site preparation, installation costs and professional fees incurred on the asset before it is
ready to use. Subsequent expenditure incurred on assets put to use is capitalised only when it increases the future benefit /
functioning capability from / of such assets.
Depreciation is charged over the estimated useful life of the fixed asset on a straight-line basis. The rates of depreciation
are not lower than the rates prescribed in Schedule XIV of the Companies Act, 1956. Depreciation rates for certain key fixed
assets are given below :

Depreciation rate
Asset
per annum
Owned Premises 1.63%
Very Small Aperture Terminals (‘VSATs’) 10.00%
Automated Teller Machines (‘ATMs’) 10.00%
Office equipment 16.21%
Computers 33.33%
Motor cars 25.00%
Software and System development expenditure 20.00%
Assets at residences of executives of the Bank 25.00%

environment, changes in technology, the utility and efficacy of the asset in use, etc. 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.
5 Impairment of assets
The Bank assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. Impairment
loss, if any, is provided in the Statement of Profit and Loss to the extent the carrying amount of assets exceeds their
estimated recoverable amount.
6 Transactions involving foreign exchange
Foreign currency income and expenditure items of domestic operations are translated at the exchange rates prevailing
on the date of the transaction. Income and expenditure items of integral foreign operations (representative offices) are
translated at the weekly average closing rates and of non-integral foreign operations (foreign branches) at the monthly
average closing rates.
Foreign currency monetary items of domestic and integral foreign operations are translated at the closing exchange rates
notified by Foreign Exchange Dealers’ Association of India (‘FEDAI’) as at the balance sheet date and the resulting net valuation
profit or loss arising due to a net open position in any foreign currency is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Both monetary and non-monetary foreign currency assets and liabilities of non-integral foreign operations are translated
at closing exchange rates notified by FEDAI at the balance sheet date and the resulting profit / loss arising from exchange
differences are accumulated in the Foreign Currency Translation Account until remittance or the disposal of the net investment
in the non-integral foreign operations in accordance with AS-11.
Foreign exchange spot and forward contracts outstanding as at the balance sheet date and held for trading, are revalued
at the closing spot and forward rates respectively as notified by FEDAI and at interpolated rates for contracts of interim
maturities. The contracts for longer maturities i.e. greater than one year are revalued using MIFOR (Mumbai Interbank
Forward Offer Rate) and contracts with USD-INR currency pair are valued using USD LIBOR (London Interbank Offered
Rate) rates. For other currency pairs, the forward points (as published by FEDAI) are extrapolated. The resulting profit or loss
on valuation is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Foreign exchange forward contracts not intended for trading, that are entered into to establish the amount of reporting
currency required or available at the settlement date of a transaction, and are outstanding at the balance sheet date, are
effectively valued at the closing spot rate. The premia or discount arising at the inception of such forward exchange contract
is amortised as expense or income over the life of the contract.
Currency futures contracts are marked to market daily using settlement price on a trading day, which is the closing price of
the respective futures contracts on that day. While the daily settlement price is computed on the basis of the last half an hour
weighted average price of such contract, the final settlement price is taken as the RBI reference rate on the last trading day
of the futures contract or as may be specified by the relevant authority from time to time. All open positions are marked to
market based on the settlement price and the resultant marked to market profit / loss is daily settled with the exchange.
Contingent Liabilities on account of foreign exchange contracts, currency future contracts, guarantees, letters of credit,
acceptances and endorsements are reported at closing rates of exchange notified by FEDAI as at the Balance Sheet date.
7 Derivative contracts
The Bank recognises all derivative contracts (other than those designated as hedges) at fair value, on the date on which the
derivative contracts are entered into and are re-measured at fair value as at the balance sheet or reporting dates. Derivatives
are classified as assets when the fair value is positive (positive marked to market value) or as liabilities when the fair value is
negative (negative marked to market value). Changes in the fair value of derivatives other than those designated as hedges
are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Derivative contracts designated as hedges are not marked to market unless their underlying transaction is marked to market.
In respect of derivative contracts that are marked to market, changes in the market value are recognised in the Statement
of Profit and Loss in the relevant period. The Bank identifies the hedged item (asset or liability) at the inception of the

HDFC Bank Limited Annual Report 2013-14 47


Schedules to the Financial Statements
For the year ended March 31, 2014
transaction itself. Hedge effectiveness is ascertained at the time of the inception of the hedge and periodically thereafter.
Gains or losses arising from hedge ineffectiveness, if any, are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Contingent Liabilities on account of derivative contracts denominated in foreign currencies are reported at closing rates of
exchange notified by FEDAI as at the Balance Sheet date.
8 Revenue recognition
Interest income is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss on an accrual basis, except in the case of non-performing
assets where it is recognised upon realisation as per RBI norms.
Interest income on investments in PTCs and loans bought out through the direct assignment route is recognised at their
effective interest rate.
Income on non-coupon bearing discounted instruments is recognised over the tenor of the instrument on a constant effective
yield basis.
Loan processing fee is recognised as income when due. Syndication / arranger fee is recognised as income when a
significant act / milestone is completed.
Gain / loss on sell down of loans is recognised in line with the extant RBI guidelines.
Dividend on equity shares, preference shares and on mutual fund units is recognised as income when the right to receive
the dividend is established.
Guarantee commission, commission on Letter of Credit, annual locker rent fees and annual fees for credit cards are
recognised on a straight line basis over the period of contract. Other fees and commission income are recognised when due,
except in cases where the Bank is uncertain of ultimate collection.
9 Employee benefits
Employee Stock Option Scheme (‘ESOS’)
The Employee Stock Option Scheme (‘the Scheme’) provides for the grant of options to acquire equity shares of the Bank
to its employees. The options granted to employees vest in a graded manner and these may be exercised by the employees
within a specified period.
The Bank follows the intrinsic value method to account for its stock-based employee compensation plans. Compensation
cost is measured by the excess, if any, of the market price of the underlying stock over the exercise price as determined
under the option plan. The market price is the closing price on the stock exchange where there is highest trading volume on
the working day immediately preceding the date of grant. Compensation cost, if any is amortised over the vesting period.
Gratuity
The Bank provides for gratuity to all employees. The benefit is in the form of lump sum payment to vested employees on
resignation, retirement, death while in employment or on termination of employment of an amount equivalent to 15 days
basic salary payable for each completed year of service. Vesting occurs upon completion of five years of service. The Bank
makes contributions to funds administered by trustees and managed by insurance companies for amounts notified by the
said insurance companies. In respect of erstwhile Lord Krishna Bank (‘eLKB’) employees, the Bank makes contribution to a
fund set up by eLKB and administered by the board of trustees.
The defined gratuity benefit plans are valued by an independent actuary as at the balance sheet date using the projected
unit credit method as per the requirement of AS-15 (Revised 2005), Employee Benefits, to determine the present value
of the defined benefit obligation and the related service costs. Under this method, the determination is based on actuarial
calculations, which include assumptions about demographics, early retirement, salary increases and interest rates. Actuarial
gain or loss is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Superannuation
Employees of the Bank, above a prescribed grade, are entitled to receive retirement benefits under the Bank’s Superannuation
Fund. The Bank contributes a sum equivalent to 13% of the employee’s eligible annual basic salary (15% for the Managing
Director, Executive Directors and for certain eligible erstwhile Centurion Bank of Punjab (‘eCBoP’) staff) to insurance
companies, which administer the fund. The Bank has no liability for future superannuation fund benefits other than its
contribution, and recognises such contributions as an expense in the year incurred, as such contribution is in the nature of
defined contribution.

For the year ended March 31, 2014
Provident fund
In accordance with law, all employees of the Bank are entitled to receive benefits under the provident fund. The Bank
contributes an amount, on a monthly basis, at a determined rate (currently 12% of employee’s basic salary). Of this, the
Bank contributes an amount equal to 8.33% of employee’s basic salary up to a maximum salary level of ` 6,500/- per
month, to the Pension Scheme administered by the Regional Provident Fund Commissioner (‘RPFC’). The balance amount
is contributed to a fund set up by the Bank and administered by a board of trustees. In respect of eCBoP employees,
employer’s and employee’s share of contribution to Provident Fund till March 2009, was administered by RPFC and from
April 2009 onwards, the same is transferred to the fund set up by the Bank and administered by the board of trustees. In
respect of eLKB employees, the Bank contributes to a fund set up by eLKB and administered by a board of trustees. The
Bank recognises such contributions as an expense in the year in which it is incurred. Interest payable to the members of
the trust shall not be lower than the statutory rate of interest declared by the Central Government under the Employees
Provident Funds and Miscellaneous Provisions Act 1952 and shortfall, if any, shall be made good by the Bank.
The guidance note on implementing AS-15 (revised 2005), Employee Benefits, states that benefits involving employer
established provident funds, which require interest shortfalls to be provided, are to be considered as defined benefit plans.
Actuarial valuation of this Provident Fund interest shortfall is done as per the guidance note issued in this respect by the
Actuary Society of India and provision towards this liability is made.
The overseas branches of the Bank make contributions to the respective relevant government scheme calculated as a
percentage of the employees’ salaries. The Bank’s obligations are limited to these contributions, which are expensed when
due, as such contribution is in the nature of defined contribution.
Leave encashment / Compensated absences
The Bank does not have a policy of encashing unavailed leave for its employees, except for certain eLKB employees
under Indian Banks’ Association (‘IBA’) structure. The Bank provides for leave encashment / compensated absences based
on an independent actuarial valuation at the balance sheet date, which includes assumptions about demographics, early
retirement, salary increases, interest rates and leave utilisation.
Pension
In respect of pension payable to certain eLKB employees under IBA structure, which is a defined benefit scheme, the Bank
contributes 10% of basic salary to a pension fund set up by the Bank and administered by the board of trustees and the
balance amount is provided based on actuarial valuation as at the balance sheet date conducted by an independent actuary.
In respect of certain eLKB employees who had moved to a Cost to Company (‘CTC’) driven compensation structure and
have completed less than 15 years of service, the contribution which was made until then, is maintained as a fund and will
be converted into annuity on separation after a lock-in-period of two years. For this category of employees, liability stands
frozen and no additional provision is required except for interest as applicable to Provident Fund, which is provided for.
In respect of certain eLKB employees who moved to a CTC structure and had completed service of more than 15 years,
pension would be paid on separation based on salary applicable as on the date of movement to CTC structure. Provision
thereto is made based on actuarial valuation as at the balance sheet date conducted by an independent actuary.
10 Debit and credit cards reward points
The Bank estimates the probable redemption of debit and credit card reward points and cost per point using an actuarial
method by employing an independent actuary, which includes assumptions such as mortality, redemption and spends.
Provisions for the said reward points are made based on the actuarial valuation report as furnished by the said independent
actuary.
11 Bullion
The Bank imports bullion including precious metal bars on a consignment basis for selling to its wholesale and retail
customers. The imports are typically on a back-to-back basis and are priced to the customer based on an estimated price
quoted by the supplier. The Bank earns a fee on such wholesale bullion transactions. The fee is classified under commission
income.
The Bank also sells bullion to its retail customers. The difference between the sale price to customers and actual price
quoted by supplier is recorded under commission income.
The Bank also deals in bullion on a borrowing and lending basis and the interest paid / received thereon is classified as
interest expense / income respectively.

12 Lease accounting
Lease payments including cost escalation for assets taken on operating lease are recognised in the Statement of Profit and
Loss over the lease term on a straight-line basis in accordance with the AS-19, Leases.
13 Income tax
Income tax expense comprises current tax provision (i.e. the amount of tax for the period determined in accordance with the
Income Tax Act, 1961 and the rules framed there under) and the net change in the deferred tax asset or liability during the
year. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for the future tax consequences of timing differences between the
carrying values of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, and operating loss carried forward, if any. Deferred
tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted or substantively enacted tax rates as at the balance sheet date.
Current tax assets and liabilities and deferred tax assets and liabilities are off-set when they relate to income taxes levied by
the same taxation authority, when the Bank has a legal right to off-set and when the Bank intends to settle on a net basis.
Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent there is reasonable certainty that the assets can be realized in future.
In case of unabsorbed depreciation or carried forward loss under taxation laws, deferred tax assets are recognised only
if there is virtual certainty of realisation of such assets. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date and
appropriately adjusted to reflect the amount that is reasonably / virtually certain to be realized.
14 Earnings per share
The Bank reports basic and diluted earnings per equity share in accordance with AS-20, Earnings per Share. Basic earnings
per equity share has been computed by dividing net profit for the year attributable to equity shareholders by the weighted
average number of equity shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that
could occur if securities or other contracts to issue equity shares were exercised or converted to equity during the year.
Diluted earnings per equity share are computed using the weighted average number of equity shares and the dilutive
potential equity shares outstanding during the period except where the results are anti-dilutive.
15 Segment Information
The disclosure relating to segment information is in accordance with the guidelines issued by RBI.
16 Accounting for provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets
In accordance with AS-29, Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets, the Bank recognises provisions when it
has a present obligation as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits
will be required to settle the obligation and when a reliable estimate of the amount of the obligation can be made.
Provisions are determined based on management estimate required to settle the obligation at the balance sheet date,
supplemented by experience of similar transactions. These are reviewed at each balance sheet date and adjusted to reflect
the current management estimates.
A disclosure of contingent liability is made when there is :
™ Vedhh^WaZdWa^\Vi^dcVg^h^c\[gdbVeVhiZkZci!i]ZZm^hiZcXZd[l]^X]l^aaWZXdcÃgbZYWni]ZdXXjggZcXZdgcdc"

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, if any, are not recognised in the financial statements since this may result in the recognition of income
that may never be realized.
17 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.

approved at the ensuing Annual General Meeting.
5 Accounting for employee share based payments
The shareholders of the Bank approved grant of equity share options under Plan “B” in June 2003, Plan “C” in June 2005,
Plan “D” in June 2007, Plan “E” in June 2010 and Plan “F” in June 2013. Under the terms of each of these Plans, the Bank
may issue Equity Stock Options (‘ESOPs’) to employees and whole time directors of the Bank, each of which is convertible
into one equity share. All the plans were framed in accordance with the SEBI (Employee Stock Option Scheme & Employee
Stock Purchase Scheme) Guidelines, 1999 as amended from time to time.
Plans B, C, D, E and F provide for the issuance of options at the recommendation of the Compensation Committee at the
closing price on the working day immediately preceding the date when options are granted. For Plan B the price is that
quoted on an Indian stock exchange with the highest trading volume during the preceding two weeks, while for Plans C, D,
E and F the price is the closing price of the share on an Indian stock exchange with the highest trading volume as of the
working day preceding the date of grant.
Vesting conditions applicable to the options are at the discretion of the Compensation Committee. These options are
exercisable on vesting, for a period as set forth by the Compensation Committee at the time of grant. The period in which
options may be exercised cannot exceed five years. Modifications, if any, made to the terms and conditions of ESOPs as
approved by the Compensation Committee are disclosed separately.
The erstwhile Centurion Bank of Punjab (‘eCBoP’) had granted stock options to its employees prior to its amalgamation with
the Bank. The options were granted under the General ESOP Scheme framed in accordance with the SEBI (Employee Stock
Option Scheme & Employee Stock Purchase Scheme) Guidelines, 1999 as amended from time to time. The outstanding
options granted by eCBoP and the grant price thereof were converted into equivalent HDFC Bank options and prices in the
swap ratio of 1:29 i.e. 1 stock option of HDFC Bank for every 29 stock options granted and outstanding of eCBoP as on
May 23, 2008, the effective date of the amalgamation, in accordance with Clause 9.9 of the scheme of amalgamation of
eCBoP with the Bank. The vesting dates for the said stock options granted in various tranches were revised as per Clause
9.9 of the Scheme. The aforesaid stock options are exercisable within a period of 5 years from the date of vesting. Options
granted under the General ESOP scheme were granted at the market price. The market price was the latest available closing
price, prior to the date of meeting of the Board of Directors / Compensation Committee in which options were granted or
shares were issued, on the stock exchange on which the shares of the Bank were listed. If the shares were listed on more
than one stock exchange, then the stock exchange where there was highest trading volume on the said date was considered.

Fair value methodology
The fair value of options used to compute proforma net income and earnings per equity share have been estimated on
the dates of each grant using the binomial option-pricing model. The Bank estimates the volatility based on the historical
share prices. 47,060,000 options were granted during the year ended March 31, 2014 (previous year : Nil). The various
assumptions considered in the pricing model for the ESOPs granted during the year ended March 31, 2014 were :

s 1UALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ON RISK EXPOSURE IN DERIVATIVES
Overview of business and processes
Derivatives are financial instruments whose characteristics are derived from underlying assets, or from interest and
exchange rates or indices. These include forwards, swaps, futures and options. The notional amounts of financial
instruments such as foreign exchange contracts and derivatives provide a basis for comparison with instruments
recognised on the Balance Sheet but do not necessarily indicate the amounts of future cash flows involved or the
current fair value of the instruments and, therefore, do not indicate the Bank’s exposure to credit or price risks. The
following sections outline the nature and terms of the derivative transactions generally undertaken by the Bank.
Interest rate contracts
Forward rate agreements give the buyer the ability to determine the underlying rate of interest for a specified period
commencing on a specified future date (the settlement date). There is no exchange of principal and settlement is
effected on the settlement date. The settlement amount is the difference between the contracted rate and the market
rate prevailing on the settlement date.

HDFC Bank Limited Annual Report 2013-14 61


Schedules to the Financial Statements
For the year ended March 31, 2014
Interest rate swaps involve the exchange of interest obligations with the counterparty for a specified period without
exchanging the underlying (or notional) principal.
Interest rate caps and floors give the buyer the ability to fix the maximum or minimum rate of interest. The writer of
the contract pays the amount by which the market rate exceeds or is less than the cap rate or the floor rate respectively.
A combination of interest rate caps and floors is known as an interest rate collar.
Interest rate futures are standardised interest rate derivative contracts traded on a recognised stock exchange to buy
or sell a notional security or any other interest bearing instrument or an index of such instruments or interest rates at a
specified future date, at a price determined at the time of the contract.
Exchange rate contracts
Forward foreign exchange contracts are agreements to buy or sell fixed amounts of currency at agreed rates of
exchange on future date. All such instruments are carried at fair value, determined based on either FEDAI rates or on
market quotations.
Cross currency swaps are agreements to exchange principal amounts denominated in different currencies. Cross
currency swaps may also involve the exchange of interest payments on one specified currency for interest payments
in another specified currency for a specified period.
Currency options give the buyer, on payment of a premium, the right but not an obligation, to buy or sell specified
amounts of currency at agreed rates of exchange on or before a specified future date. Option premia paid or received
is recorded in Statement of Profit and Loss for rupee options at the expiry of the option and for foreign currency options
on premium settlement date.
Currency futures contract is a standardised contract traded on an exchange, to buy or sell a certain underlying asset
or an instrument at a certain date in the future, at a specified price. The underlying instrument of a currency future
contract is the rate of exchange between one unit of foreign currency and the INR.
Most of the Bank’s derivative transactions relate to sales and trading activities. Sale activities include the structuring
and marketing of derivatives to customers to enable them to hedge their market risks (both interest rate and exchange
risks), within the framework of regulations as may apply from time to time. The Bank deals in derivatives on its own
account (trading activity) principally for the purpose of generating a profit from short term fluctuations in price or yields.
The Bank also deals in derivatives to hedge the risk embedded in some of its Balance Sheet assets and liabilities.
Constituents involved in derivative business
The Treasury front office enters into derivative transactions with customers and inter-bank counterparties. The Bank
has an independent back-office and mid-office as per regulatory guidelines. The Bank has a credit and market risk
department that assesses various counterparty risk and market risk limits, within the risk architecture and processes
of the Bank.
Derivative policy
The Bank has in place a policy which covers various aspects that apply to the functioning of the derivative business.
The derivative business is administered by various market risk limits such as position limits, tenor limits, sensitivity
limits and value-at-risk limits that are approved by the Board and the Risk Policy and Monitoring Committee (‘RPMC’).
All methodologies used to assess credit and market risks for derivative transactions are specified by the market risk
unit. Limits are monitored on a daily basis by the mid-office.
The Bank has implemented a Board approved policy on Customer Suitability & Appropriateness to ensure that
derivative transactions entered into are appropriate and suitable to the customer’s nature of business / operations.
Before entering into a derivative deal with a customer, the Bank scores the customer on various risk parameters and
based on the overall score level it determines the kind of product that best suits its risk appetite and the customer’s
requirements.
Classification of derivatives book
The derivative book is classified into trading and hedging book. Classification of the derivative book is made on the
basis of the definitions of the trading and hedging books specified in the RBI guidelines. The trading book is managed
within the trading limits approved by the RPMC.

HDFC Bank Limited Annual Report 2013-14 62


Schedules to the Financial Statements
For the year ended March 31, 2014
Hedging policy
For derivative contracts designated as hedge the Bank documents, at inception, the relationship between the hedging
instrument and the hedged item, the risk management objective for undertaking the hedge and the methods used
to assess the hedge effectiveness. Hedge effectiveness is ascertained at the time of inception of the hedge and
periodically thereafter. Hedge effectiveness is measured by the degree to which changes in the fair value or cash flows
of the hedged item that are attributable to a hedged risk are offset by changes in the fair value or cash flows of the
hedging instrument.
The hedging book consists of transactions to hedge Balance Sheet assets or liabilities. The tenor of hedging instrument
may be less than or equal to the tenor of underlying hedged asset or liability. Derivative contracts designated as hedges
are not marked to market unless their underlying asset or liability is marked to market. In respect of derivative contracts
that are marked to market, changes in the market value are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the
relevant period. Gain or losses arising from hedge ineffectiveness, if any, are recognised in the Statement of Profit and
Loss.
s 0ROVISIONING COLLATERAL AND CREDIT RISK MITIGATION
The Bank enters into derivative transactions with counter parties based on their business ranking and financial position.
The Bank sets up appropriate limits upon evaluating the ability of the counterparty to honour its obligations in the event
of crystallisation of the exposure. Appropriate credit covenants are stipulated where required as trigger events to call
for collaterals or terminate a transaction and contain the risk.
The Bank, at the minimum, conforms to the RBI guidelines with regard to provisioning requirements. Overdue receivables
representing crystallized positive mark-to-market value of a derivative contract are transferred to the account of the
borrower and treated as non-performing assets, if these remain unpaid for 90 days or more. Full provision is made
for the entire amount of overdue and future receivables relating to positive marked to market value of non-performing
derivative contracts.

9 Interest rate derivatives include interest rate swaps, forward rate agreements and interest rate caps.
9 The Bank has computed the maximum and minimum of PV01 for the year based on the balances as at the end
of every month.
9 In respect of derivative contracts, the Bank evaluates the credit exposure arising therefrom, in line with RBI
guidelines. Credit exposure has been computed using the current exposure method which is the sum of :
(a) the current replacement cost (marked to market value including accruals) of the contract or zero whichever
is higher; and
(b) the Potential Future Exposure (PFE). PFE is a product of the notional principal amount of the contract and
a factor that is based on the grid of credit conversion factors prescribed in RBI guidelines, which is applied
on the basis of the residual maturity and the type of contract.

Schedules to the Financial Statements
For the year ended March 31, 2014
and the related upgradation / recoveries even if these are within the same reporting period, the Bank has accordingly
reflected these additions / reductions and the related provisions in the above table. Further, slippages and the related
upgradation / recoveries that may occur on more than one occasion for the same customer in the reporting period
are aggregated and accordingly counted more than once under additions and reductions respectively, in the above
table. As a result, the additions to NPAs and reductions in NPAs on account of upgradation / recoveries increased by
the same amount and the amounts of opening NPAs, closing NPAs, write offs and the related provisions remained
unchanged. Previous year’s figures have accordingly been re-classified.

1UALITATIVE $ISCLOSURES
A. Information relating to the composition and mandate of the Remuneration Committee
Composition of the Remuneration Committee
The Board of Directors of the Bank has constituted the Remuneration Committee (hereinafter, the ‘Remuneration
Committee’) for overseeing and governing the compensation policies of the Bank. The Remuneration Committee
is comprised of four independent directors and is chaired by the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Bank.
Further, two members of the Remuneration Committee are also members of the Risk Policy and Monitoring Committee
(‘RPMC’) of the Board.
The Remuneration Committee is comprised of the Chairman, Mr. C. M. Vasudev, Dr. Pandit Palande, Mr. Partho Datta
and Mr. Bobby Parikh. Further, Mr. C.M. Vasudev and Mr. Partho Dutta are also members of the RPMC.
Mandate of the Remuneration Committee
The primary mandate of the Remuneration Committee is to oversee the implementation of compensation policies of
the Bank.
The Remuneration Committee periodically reviews the overall compensation policy of the Bank with a view to
attract, retain and motivate employees. In this capacity it is required to review and approve the design of the total
compensation framework, including compensation strategy programs and plans, on behalf of the Board of Directors. The
compensation structure and pay revision for Whole Time Directors is also approved by the Remuneration Committee.
The Remuneration Committee co-ordinates with the RPMC to ensure that compensation is aligned with prudent risk
taking.
B. Information relating to the design and structure of remuneration processes and the key features and objectives
of remuneration policy
I. Key Features and Objectives of Remuneration Policy
The Bank’s Compensation Policy (hereinafter, the ‘Policy’) is aligned to business strategy, market dynamics,
internal characteristics and complexities within the Bank. The ultimate objective of the Policy is to provide a
fair and transparent structure that helps in retaining and acquiring the talent pool critical to build competitive
advantage and brand equity. The Policy has been designed basis the principles for sound compensation practices
in accordance with regulatory requirements and provides a framework to create, modify and maintain appropriate
compensation programs and processes with adequate supervision and control.
The Bank’s performance management system provides a sound basis for assessing employee performance
holistically. The Bank’s compensation framework is aligned with the performance management system and

HDFC Bank Limited Annual Report 2013-14 77


Schedules to the Financial Statements
For the year ended March 31, 2014
differentiates pay appropriately amongst its employees based on degree of contribution, skill and availability
of talent owing to competitive market forces by taking into account factors such as role, skills, competencies,
experience and grade / seniority.

The compensation structure for both the categories of employees is determined by the Remuneration Committee
and ensures that :

(a) the compensation is adjusted for all types of prudent risk taking;

(b) compensation outcomes are symmetric with risk outcomes;

(c) compensation payouts are sensitive to the time horizon of risk; and

(d) the mix of cash, equity and other forms of compensation are aligned with risk.

II. Design and Structure of Remuneration

a) Fixed Pay

The Remuneration Committee ensures that the fixed component of the compensation is reasonable, taking
into account all relevant factors including industry practice.

Elements of Fixed Pay

The fixed pay component of the Bank’s compensation structure typically consists of elements such as
base salary, allowances, perquisites, retirement and other employee benefits. Perquisites extended are in
the nature of company car, hard furnishing, company leased accommodation, club membership and such
other benefits or allowances in lieu of such perquisites / benefits. Retirement benefits are comprised of
contributions to provident fund, superannuation fund (for certain job bands) and gratuity. The Bank also
provides pension to certain employees of the erstwhile Lord Krishna Bank (eLKB) under the Indian Banks’
Association (‘IBA’) structure.

Determinants of Fixed Pay

The fixed pay is primarily determined by taking into account factors such as the job size, performance,
experience, location, market competitiveness of pay and is designed to meet the following key objectives of :

(a) fair compensation given the role complexity and size;

(b) fair compensation given the individual’s skill, competence, experience and market pay position;

(c) sufficient contribution to post retirement benefits; and

(d) compliance with all statutory obligations.

For Whole Time Directors additional dimensions such as prominence of leadership among industry leaders,
consistency of the Bank’s performance over the years on key parameters such as profitability, growth and
asset quality in relation to its own past performance and that of its peer banks would be considered. The
quantum of fixed pay for Whole Time Directors is approved by the Remuneration Committee as well as the
Board and is subject to the approval of the RBI.

B 6ARIABLE 0AY

The performance management system forms the basis for variable pay allocation of the Bank. The Bank
ensures that the performance management system is comprehensive and considers both, quantitative and
qualitative performance measures.

Schedules to the Financial Statements
For the year ended March 31, 2014
Whole Time Directors
The bonus for Whole Time Directors will not exceed 70% of the fixed pay in a year, thereby ensuring
that there is a balance between the fixed and variable pays. The variable pay for Whole Time Directors is
approved by the Remuneration Committee as well as the Board and is subject to the approval of the RBI.
The variable pay component is paid out subject to the following conditions :

™ I]Z7Vc`]VhYZk^hZYVeegdeg^ViZbVajhVcYXaVl back clauses as a risk mitigant for any negative
contributions of the Bank and / or relevant line of business in any year. Under the malus clause the
incumbent foregoes the vesting of the deferred variable pay in full or in part. Under the claw back
clause the incumbent is obligated to return all the tranches of payout received of bonus amounts
pertaining to the relevant performance year.
Employees Other Than Whole Time Directors
The Bank has formulated the following variable pay plans :
™ 6ccjVa7dcjhEaVc
The quantum of variable payout is a function of the performance of the Bank, performance of
the individual employee, job band of the employee and the functional category. Basis these key
determinants and due adjustment for risk alignment, a payout matrix for variable pay is developed.
Market trends for specific businesses / functions along with inputs from compensation surveys may
also be used in finalising the payout.
Bonus pools are designed to meet specific business needs therefore resulting in differentiation in
both the quantum and the method of payout across functions. Typically higher levels of responsibility
receive a higher proportion of variable pay vis-à-vis fixed pay. The Bank ensures that the time horizon
for risk is assessed and the deferment period, if any, for bonus is set accordingly. Employees on
the annual bonus plan are not part of the incentive plans. The following is taken into account while
administering the annual bonus :
9 In the event the proportion of variable pay to fixed pay is substantially high (typically variable
pay exceeding 50% of fixed pay), the Bank may devise an appropriate deferment schedule after
taking into consideration the nature of risk, time horizon of risk, and the materiality of risk.
9 In cases of deferment of variable pay the Bank makes an assessment prior to the due date
for payment of the deferred portion for any negative contribution. The criteria for negative
contribution are decided basis pre-defined financial benchmarks. The Bank has in place
appropriate methods for prevention of vesting of deferred variable pay or any part thereof, on
account of negative contribution. The Bank also has in place claw back arrangements in relation
to amounts already paid in the eventuality of a negative contribution.
™ >cXZci^kZEaVch
Incentive Plans are formulated for sales personnel who are given origination / sales targets but have
limited impact on risk since credit decisions are exercised independent of the sales function. Most

HDFC Bank Limited Annual Report 2013-14 79


Schedules to the Financial Statements
For the year ended March 31, 2014
incentive plans have quarterly payouts and are based on the framework of a balanced scorecard.
In alignment with the principles of prudent risk management, a portion of the incentive payouts are
deferred till the end of the year and are linked to attainment of targets for the full year.
Risk, Control and Compliance Staff
The Bank has separated the Risk, Control and Compliance functions from the Business functions
in order to create a strong culture of checks and balances thereby ensuring good asset quality and
to eliminate any possible conflict of interest between revenue generation and risk management and
control. Accordingly, the overall variable pay as well as the annual salary increment of the employees
in the Risk, Control and Compliance functions is based on their performance, functional objectives
and goals. The Bank ensures that the mix of fixed to variable compensation for these functions is
weighted in favour of fixed compensation.
c) Guaranteed Bonus
Guaranteed Bonuses may not be consistent with sound risk management or pay for performance principles
of the Bank and therefore do not form an integral part of the general compensation practice.
For critical hiring for some select strategic roles, the Bank may consider granting of a sign-on bonus as
a prudent way to avoid loading the entire cost of attraction into the fixed component of the compensation
which could have a long term cost implication for the Bank. For such hiring, the sign-on bonus is generally
decided by taking into account appropriate risk factors and market conditions.
For hiring at levels of Whole Time Directors / Managing Director a sign-on bonus, if any, is limited to the first
year only and is in the form of Employee Stock Options.
d) Employee Stock Option Plan (‘ESOPs’)
The Bank considers ESOPs as a vehicle to create a balance between short term rewards and long term
sustainable value creation. ESOPs play a key role in the attraction and retention of key talent. The Bank
grants equity share options to its Whole time Directors and other employees above a certain grade. All
plans for grant of options are framed in accordance with the SEBI guidelines, 1999 as amended from time
to time and are approved by the shareholders of the Bank. These plans provide for the grant of options post
approval by the Remuneration Committee.
The grant of options is reviewed and approved by the Remuneration Committee. The number of options

)NCREMENT  0AY 2EVISION
It is the endeavor of the Bank to ensure external competitiveness as well as internal equity without diluting
the overall focus on optimizing cost. In order to enhance our external competitiveness the Bank participates
in an annual salary survey of the banking sector to understand key market trends as well as get insights on
relative market pay position compared to peers. The Bank endeavors to ensure that most employees progress
to the median of the market in terms of fixed pay over time. This coupled with key internal data indicators like
performance score, job family, experience, job grade and salary budget form the basis of decision making on
revisions in fixed pay.
Increments in fixed pay for majority of the employee population are generally undertaken effective April 1 every
year. However promotions, confirmations and change in job dimensions could also lead to a change in the fixed
pay during other times of the year.
The Bank also makes salary corrections and adjustments during the year for those employees whose
compensation is found to be below the market pay and who have a good performance track record. However
such pay revisions are done on an exception basis.
C. Description of the ways in which current and future risks are taken into account in the remuneration processes.
It should include the nature and type of the key measures used to take account of these risks
The Bank takes into account all types of risks in its remuneration processes. The Bank takes into consideration the
fact that a portion of the Bank’s profits are directly attributable to various types of risks the Bank is exposed to, such as
credit risk, market risk, operational risk and other quantifiable risks. Based on the surplus available post adjustment of
the cost of capital to cover all such risks and factoring the impact of bonus payout on operating costs an appropriate
bonus pool is arrived at.
The Bank also provides for deferment of bonus in the event the proportion of variable pay as compared to fixed pay
is substantially high. The Bank has also devised appropriate malus and claw back clauses as a risk mitigant for any
negative contributions of the Bank and / or relevant line of business in any year. Under the malus clause, the incumbent
foregoes the vesting of the deferred variable pay in full or in part. Under the claw back clause, the incumbent is
obligated to return all the tranches of payout received of bonus amounts pertaining to the relevant performance year.
D. Description of the ways in which the Bank seeks to link performance during a performance measurement
period with levels of remuneration
Levels of remuneration in the Bank are linked to the performance of the individual employees and the respective
business functions. The performance driven pay culture is briefly described below :
Fixed Pay
At the conclusion of every financial year the Bank reviews the fixed pay portion of the compensation structure basis
merit-based increments and market corrections. These are based on a combination of performance rating, job band
and the functional category of the individual employee. For a given job band, the merit increment is directly related to
the performance rating. The Bank strives to ensure that most employees progress to the median of the market in terms
of fixed pay over time. All other things remaining equal, the correction percentage is directly related to the performance
rating of the individual.
Variable Pay
Basis the individual performance, role, and function, the Bank has formulated the following variable pay plans :
s !NNUAL "ONUS 0LAN
The Bank’s annual bonus is computed as a multiple of the standardised gross salary for every job band. The
bonus multiple is based on performance rating, job band and the functional category of the individual employee.
All other things remaining equal, for a given job band, the bonus multiple is directly related to the performance
rating. The proportion of variable pay to fixed pay increases with job band. Employees on the annual bonus plan
are not part of the incentive plans.

The Bank has formulated incentive plans for its sales personnel who are given origination / sales targets. All
incentive payouts are subject to the achievement of individual targets enumerated in the respective scorecards of
the employees. A portion of the incentive payouts are deferred till the end of the year and are linked to attainment
of targets for the full year.

E. A discussion of the Bank’s policy on deferral and vesting of variable remuneration and a discussion of the
Bank’s policy and criteria for adjusting deferred remuneration before vesting and after vesting

Whole Time Directors

balance between the fixed and variable pay. The variable pay for Whole Time Directors is approved by the Remuneration
Committee as well as the Board and is subject to the approval of the RBI. The variable pay component is paid out

9 Malus Clause

Under the malus clause the incumbent foregoes the vesting of the deferred variable pay in full or in part.
In the event there is a deterioration in specific performance criteria (such as criteria relating to profit or
asset quality) that are laid down by the Remuneration Committee, then the Remuneration Committee
would review the deterioration in the performance taking into consideration the macroeconomic
environment as well as internal performance indicators and accordingly decide whether any part of
the deferred tranche pertaining to that financial year merits a withdrawal.

9 Claw back Clause

Under the claw back clause the incumbent is obligated to return all the tranches of payout received of
bonus amounts pertaining to the relevant performance year. In the event there is any act attributable
to the concerned Whole Time Director / Managing Director resulting in an incident of willful and
deliberate misinterpretation / misreporting of financial performance (inflating the financials) of the
Bank, for a financial year, which comes to light in the subsequent three years, the incumbent is
obligated to return all the tranches of payout received of bonus amounts pertaining to the relevant
performance year.

The specific criteria on the applicability of malus and claw back arrangements are reviewed by the Remuneration
Committee annually.

Employees Other Than Whole Time Directors

The Bank has formulated the following variable pay plans :

™ Annual Bonus Plan

The quantum of variable payout is a function of the performance of the Bank, performance of the individual
employee, job band of the employee and the functional category. Basis these key determinants and due
adjustment for risk alignment, a payout matrix for variable pay is developed. Market trends for specific businesses
/ functions along with inputs from compensation surveys may also be used in finalising the payout.

Bonus pools are designed to meet specific business needs therefore resulting in differentiation in both the
quantum and the method of payout across functions. Typically higher levels of responsibility receive a higher
proportion of variable pay vis-à-vis fixed pay. The Bank ensures that the time horizon for risk is assessed and the
deferment period, if any, for bonus is set accordingly. Employees on the annual bonus plan are not part of the
incentive plans. The following is taken into account while administering the annual bonus :

9 In the event the proportion of variable pay to fixed pay is substantially high (typically variable pay exceeding
50% of fixed pay), the Bank may devise an appropriate deferment schedule after taking into consideration
the nature of risk, time horizon of risk, and the materiality of risk.

9 In cases of deferment of variable pay the Bank makes an assessment prior to the due date for payment of
the deferred portion for any negative contribution. The criteria for negative contribution are decided basis
pre-defined financial benchmarks. The Bank has in place appropriate methods for prevention of vesting of
deferred variable pay or any part thereof, on account of negative contribution. The Bank also has in place
claw back arrangements in relation to amounts already paid in the eventuality of a negative contribution.

™ Incentive Plans

Incentive Plans are formulated for sales personnel who are given origination / sales targets but have limited
impact on risk since credit decisions are exercised independent of the sales function. Most incentive plans have
quarterly payouts. In alignment with the principles of prudent risk management, a portion of the incentive payouts
are deferred till the end of the year and are linked to attainment of targets for the full year.

F. Description of the different forms of variable remuneration (i.e. cash, shares, ESOPs and other forms) that the
Bank utilizes and the rationale for using these different forms.

The Bank recognises the importance of variable pay in reinforcing a pay for performance culture. Variable pay stimulates
employees to stretch their abilities to exceed expectations.

These are paid to reward performance for a given financial year. This covers all employees and excludes
employees receiving incentives. This is based on performance rating, job band and functional category of the
individual.

2 Capital Adequacy
Assessment of capital adequacy
The Bank has a process for assessing its overall capital adequacy in relation to the Bank's risk profile and a strategy for
maintaining its capital levels. The process provides an assurance that the Bank has adequate capital to support all risks
inherent to its business and an appropriate capital buffer based on its business profile. The Bank identifies, assesses
and manages comprehensively all risks that it is exposed to through sound governance and control practices, robust risk
management framework and an elaborate process for capital calculation and planning.
The Bank has a comprehensive Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process (‘ICAAP’). The Bank’s ICAAP covers the
capital management policy of the Bank, sets the process for assessment of the adequacy of capital to support current and
future activities / risks and a report on the capital projections for a period of 2 to 3 years.
The Bank has a structured management framework in the internal capital adequacy assessment process for the
identification and evaluation of the significance of all risks that the Bank faces, which may have a material adverse impact
on its business and financial position. The Bank considers the following as material risks it is exposed to in the normal
course of its business and therefore, factors these while assessing / planning capital :
z Credit Risk, including residual risks z Credit Concentration Risk
z Market Risk z Business Risk
z Operational Risk z Strategic Risk
z Interest Rate Risk in the Banking Book z Compliance Risk
z Liquidity Risk z Reputation Risk
z Intraday risk z Technology Risk
z Model Risk z Counterparty Credit Risk

HDFC Bank Limited Annual Report 2013-14 94


Basel III - Pillar 3 Disclosures

The Bank has implemented a Board approved Stress Testing Framework which forms an integral part of the Bank's
ICAAP. Stress Testing involves the use of various techniques to assess the Bank’s potential vulnerability to extreme but
plausible stressed business conditions. The changes in the levels of Credit Risk, Market Risk, Liquidity Risk and Interest
Rate Risk in the Banking Book (‘IRRBB’) and the changes in the on and off balance sheet positions of the Bank are
assessed under assumed “stress” scenarios. Typically, these relate, inter alia, to the impact on the Bank’s profitability and
capital adequacy. Stress tests are conducted on a quarterly basis and the stress test results are put up to the Risk Policy
& Monitoring Committee of the Board on a half yearly basis and to the Board annually, for their review and guidance. The
Bank periodically assesses and refines its stress tests in an effort to ensure that the stress scenarios capture material
risks as well as reflect possible extreme market moves that could arise as a result of business environment conditions. The
stress tests are used in conjunction with the Bank’s business plans for the purpose of capital planning in the ICAAP.

3 Credit Risk
Credit Risk Management
Credit risk is defined as the possibility of losses associated with diminution in the credit quality of borrowers or
counterparties. In a bank’s portfolio, losses stem from outright default due to inability or unwillingness of a customer or
counterparty to meet commitments in relation to lending, trading, settlement and other financial transactions.
Architecture
The Bank has a comprehensive credit risk management architecture. The Board of Directors of the Bank endorses the
credit risk strategy and approves the credit risk policies of the Bank. This is done taking into consideration the Bank’s risk
appetite, derived from perceived risks in the business, balanced by the targeted profitability level for the risks taken up.
The Board oversees the credit risk management functions of the Bank. The Risk Policy & Monitoring Committee (‘RPMC’),
which is a committee of the Board, guides the development of policies, procedures and systems for managing credit risk,
towards implementing the credit risk strategy of the Bank. The RPMC ensures that these are adequate and appropriate to
changing business conditions, the structure and needs of the Bank and the risk appetite of the Bank. The RPMC periodically
reviews the Bank’s portfolio composition and the status of impaired assets.
The Bank’s Credit & Market Risk Group drives credit risk management centrally in the Bank. It is primarily responsible for
implementing the risk strategy approved by the Board, developing procedures and systems for managing risk, carrying
out an independent assessment of credit and market risk, approving individual credit exposures and monitoring portfolio
composition and quality. Within the Credit & Market Risk group and independent of the credit approval process, there is
a framework for review and approval of credit ratings. With regard to the Wholesale Banking business, the Bank’s risk
management functions are centralised. In respect of the Bank’s Retail Assets business, while the various functions relating
to policy, portfolio management and analytics are centralised, the underwriting function is distributed across various
geographies within the country. The risk management function in the Bank is clearly demarcated and independent from
the operations and business units of the Bank. The risk management function is not assigned any business targets.
Credit Process
The Bank expects to achieve its earnings objectives and to satisfy its customers’ needs while maintaining a sound
portfolio. Credit exposures are managed through target market identification, appropriate credit approval processes, post-
disbursement monitoring and remedial management procedures.
There are two different credit management models within which the credit process operates - the Retail Credit Model and
the Wholesale Credit Model. The Retail Credit Model is geared towards high volume, small transaction sized businesses
wherein credit appraisals of fresh exposures are guided by statistical models and are managed on the basis of aggregate
product portfolios. The Wholesale Credit Model on the other hand, is relevant to lower volume, larger transaction size,
customised products and relies on a judgmental process for the origination, approval and maintenance of credit exposures.
The credit models have two alternatives for managing the credit process - Product Programs and Credit Transactions. In
Product Programs, the Bank approves maximum levels of credit exposure to a set of customers with similar characteristics,
profiles and / or product needs, under clearly defined standard terms and conditions. This is a cost-effective approach to
managing credit where credit risks and expected returns lend themselves to a template-based approach or predictable
portfolio behavior in terms of yield, delinquency and write-off. Given the high volume environment, automated tracking and
reporting mechanisms are important to identify trends in portfolio behavior early and to initiate timely adjustments. In the
case of credit transactions, the risk process focuses on individual customers or borrower relationships. The approval process
in such cases is based on detailed analysis and the individual judgment of credit officials, often involving complex products
or risks, multiple facilities / structures and types of securities.
The Bank’s Credit Policies & Procedures Manual and Credit Programs, where applicable, form the core to controlling credit
risk in various activities and products. These articulate the credit risk strategy of the Bank and thereby the approach for
credit origination, approval and maintenance. These policies define the Bank’s overall credit granting criteria, including
the general terms and conditions. The policies / programs generally address areas such as target markets / customer
segmentation, qualitative and quantitative assessment parameters, portfolio mix, prudential exposure ceilings, concentration
limits, price and non-price terms, structure of limits, approval authorities, exception reporting system, prudential accounting
and provisioning norms, etc. They take cognizance of prudent and prevalent banking practices, relevant regulatory
requirements, nature and complexity of the Bank’s activities, market dynamics etc.

Basel III - Pillar 3 Disclosures

Credit concentration risk arises mainly on account of concentration of exposures under various categories including industry,
products, geography, underlying collateral nature and single / group borrower exposures. To ensure adequate diversification
of risk, concentration ceilings have been set up by the Bank on different risk dimensions, in terms of borrower / business
group, industry and risk grading.
The RPMC sets concentration ceilings and the Credit & Market Risk Group monitors exposure level under each dimension
and ensures that the portfolio profile meets the approved concentration limits. These concentration ceilings and exposure
levels are periodically reported to the Board. The regulatory prudential norms with respect to ceilings on credit exposure
to individual borrowers or group of borrowers also ensure that the Bank avoids concentration of exposure.
As an integral part of the credit process, the Bank has a fairly sophisticated credit rating model appropriate to each market
segment in Wholesale Credit. The models follow principles similar to those of international rating agencies. In Retail Credit,
score cards have been introduced in the smaller ticket, higher volume products like credit cards, two wheeler loans and
auto loans. For the other retail products which are typically less granular or have higher ticket sizes, loans are underwritten
based on the credit policies, which are in turn governed by the respective Board approved product programs. All retail
portfolios are monitored regularly at a highly segmented level.
Management monitors overall portfolio quality and high-risk exposures periodically, including the weighted risk grade of
the portfolio and industry diversification. Additional to, and independent of, the internal grading system and the RBI norms
on asset classification, the Bank has a labeling system, where individual credits are labeled based on the degree of risk
perceived in them by the Bank. Remedial strategies are developed once a loan is identified as an adversely labeled credit.
Definition of Non-Performing Assets
The Bank follows extant guidelines of the RBI on income recognition, asset classification and provisioning. A Non-Performing
Asset (‘NPA’) is a loan or an advance where :
a) Interest and / or installment of principal remain overdue for a period of more than 90 days in respect of a term loan.
b) The account remains ‘out of order’, in respect of an overdraft / cash credit (‘OD’ / ‘CC’). An account is treated as ‘out
of order’ if the outstanding balance remains continuously in excess of the sanctioned limit / drawing power or where
there are no credits continuously for 90 days as on the date of balance sheet or credits are not enough to cover the
interest debited during the same period.
c) The bill remains overdue for a period of more than 90 days in the case of bills purchased and discounted.
d) The installment of principal or interest thereon remains overdue for two crop seasons for short duration crops.
e) The installment of principal or interest thereon remains overdue for one crop season for long duration crops.
f) Any amount to be received remains overdue for a period of more than 90 days in respect of other accounts.
g) The amount of liquidity facility remains outstanding for more than 90 days, in respect of a securitisation transaction
undertaken in terms of RBI’s guidelines on securitisation dated February 1, 2006.
h) In respect of derivative transactions, the overdue receivables representing positive mark-to-market value of a derivative
contract, if these remain unpaid for a period of 90 days from the specified due date for payment.
Any amount due to the Bank under any credit facility is 'overdue' if it is not paid on the due date fixed by the Bank.
The Bank will classify an account as NPA if the interest due and charged during any quarter is not serviced fully within 90
days from the end of the quarter. When a particular facility of a borrower has become non-performing, the facilities granted
by the Bank to that borrower (whether a wholesale or retail borrower) will be classified as NPA and not the particular facility
alone which triggered the NPA classification for that borrower.
Advances against term deposits, National Savings Certificates eligible for surrender, Indira Vikas Patras, Kisan Vikas Patras
and Life Insurance policies need not be treated as NPAs, provided adequate margin is available in the accounts. Credit
facilities backed by the Central Government though overdue may be treated as NPA only when the Government repudiates
its guarantee when invoked. State Government guaranteed advances and investments in State Government guaranteed
securities would attract asset classification and provisioning norms if interest and / or principal or any other amount due to
the Bank remains overdue for more than 90 days.
A loan for an infrastructure project will be classified as NPA during any time before commencement of commercial
operations as per record of recovery (90 days overdue), unless it is restructured and becomes eligible for classification as

HDFC Bank Limited Annual Report 2013-14 97


Basel III - Pillar 3 Disclosures

'standard asset' in terms of conditions laid down in the related RBI guidelines. A loan for an infrastructure project will be
classified as NPA if it fails to commence commercial operations within two years from the original Date of Commencement
of Commercial Operations (‘DCCO’), even if it is regular as per record of recovery, unless it is restructured and becomes
eligible for classification as 'standard asset' in terms of conditions laid down in the related RBI guidelines.
A loan for a non-infrastructure project (other than commercial real estate exposures) will be classified as NPA during any
time before commencement of commercial operations as per record of recovery (90 days overdue), unless it is restructured
and becomes eligible for classification as 'standard asset' in terms of conditions laid down in the related RBI guidelines.
A loan for a non-infrastructure project (other than commercial real estate exposures) will be classified as NPA if it fails to
commence commercial operations within one year from the original DCCO, even if is regular as per record of recovery,
unless it is restructured and becomes eligible for classification as 'standard asset' in terms of conditions laid down in the
related RBI guidelines.
A loan for commercial real estate project will be classified as NPA during any time before commencement of commercial
operations as per record of recovery (90 days overdue), or if the project fails to commence commercial operations within
one year from the original DCCO or if the loan is restructured.
Non-performing assets are classified into the following three categories :
s 3UB STANDARD !SSETS
A sub-standard asset is one, which has remained NPA for a period less than or equal to 12 months. In such cases,
the current net worth of the borrower / guarantor or the current market value of the security charged is not enough
to ensure recovery of the dues to the banks in full. In other words, such an asset will have well defined credit
weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt and are characterised by the distinct possibility that banks will
sustain some loss, if deficiencies are not corrected.
s $OUBTFUL !SSETS
A doubtful asset is one, which remained NPA for a period exceeding 12 months. A loan classified as doubtful has
all the weaknesses inherent in assets that were classified as substandard, with the added characteristic that the
weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently known facts, conditions and values, highly
questionable and improbable.
s ,OSS !SSETS
A loss asset is one where loss has been identified by the Bank or internal or external auditors or the RBI inspection
but the amount has not been written off wholly. In other words, such an asset is considered uncollectible and of such
little value that its continuance as a bankable asset is not warranted although there may be some salvage or recovery
value.
Interest on non-performing assets is not recognised in the profit / loss account until received. Specific provision for non-
performing assets is made based on Management’s assessment of their degree of impairment subject to the minimum
provisioning level prescribed by RBI.

The Bank had hitherto computed additions and reductions by comparing NPAs outstanding at the beginning and at the

the related upgradation / recoveries even if these are within the same reporting period, the Bank has accordingly reflected
these additions / reductions and the related provisions in the above table. Further, slippages and the related upgradation /
recoveries that may occur on more than one occasion for the same customer in the reporting period are aggregated and
accordingly counted more than once under additions and under reductions respectively, in the above table. As a result, the
additions to NPAs and reduction in NPAs on account of upgradation / recoveries have both increased by the same amount
and the amounts of opening NPAs, closing NPAs, write offs and the related provisions remained unchanged. Previous year’s
figures have accordingly been re-classified.

Total 3,864,202.9 3,112,014.2
Note: Gross credit exposure is comprised of loans & advances, bills re-discounted aggregating ` 4,000.0 million (previous year : ` 21,000.0
million), investments in debenture & bonds, commercial papers, security receipts, on-balance sheet securitisation exposures
purchased or retained and deposits with NABARD, SIDBI & NHB under the priority / weaker section lending schemes, guarantees,
acceptances, endorsements and letters of credit.
Treatment of undrawn exposures
As required by the regulatory norms, the Bank holds capital even for the undrawn portion of credit facilities which are not
unconditionally cancellable by the Bank, by converting such exposures into a credit exposure equivalent based on the
applicable Credit Conversion Factor (‘CCF’). For unconditionally cancellable credit facilities the Bank applies a CCF of zero
percent.
Credit rating agencies
The Bank is using the ratings assigned by the following domestic external credit rating agencies, approved by the RBI, for
risk weighting claims on domestic entities :
z Credit Analysis and Research Limited (‘CARE’)
z Credit Rating Information Services of India Limited (‘CRISIL’)
z ICRA Limited (‘ICRA’)
z India Ratings and Research Private Limited (earlier known as Fitch India)
The Bank is using the ratings assigned by the following international credit rating agencies, approved by the RBI, for risk
weighting claims on overseas entities :
z Fitch Ratings
z Moody’s
z Standard & Poor’s

Types of exposures for which each agency is used


The Bank has used the solicited ratings assigned by the above approved credit rating agencies for all eligible exposures,
both on balance sheet and off balance sheet, whether short term or long term, in the manner permitted in the RBI
guidelines on Basel III capital regulations. The Bank has not made any discrimination among ratings assigned by these
agencies nor has restricted their usage to any particular type of exposure.
Public issue ratings transferred onto comparable assets
The Bank has, in accordance with RBI guidelines on Basel III capital regulations, transferred public ratings on to comparable
assets in the banking books in the following manner :
Issue Specific Ratings
z All long term and short term ratings assigned by the credit rating agencies specifically to the Bank’s long term and
short term exposures respectively are considered by the Bank as issue specific ratings.
z For assets in the Bank’s portfolio that have contractual maturity less than or equal to one year, short term ratings
accorded by the chosen credit rating agencies are considered relevant. For other assets, which have a contractual
maturity of more than one year, long term ratings accorded by the chosen credit rating agencies are considered
relevant.
z Long term ratings issued by the chosen domestic credit rating agencies have been mapped to the appropriate risk
weights applicable as per the standardised approach under Basel III capital regulations. The rating to risk weight
mapping furnished below was adopted for domestic corporate exposures, as per RBI guidelines :

Long term rating AAA AA A BBB BB & Below Unrated


Risk weight 20% 30% 50% 100% 150% 100%
z In respect of the issue specific short term ratings the following risk weight mapping has been adopted by the Bank, as
provided in the RBI guidelines :

Short term rating equivalent A1+ A1 A2 A3 A4 & D Unrated


Risk Weight 20% 30% 50% 100% 150% 100%
z Where
 multiple issue specific ratings are assigned to the Bank’s exposure by the various credit rating agencies, the
risk weight is determined as follows :
(i) If there is only one rating by a chosen credit rating agency for a particular claim, then that rating is used to
determine the risk weight of the claim.
(ii) If there are two ratings accorded by chosen credit rating agencies, which map into different risk weights, the
higher risk weight is applied.
(iii) If there are three or more ratings accorded by chosen credit rating agencies with different risk weights, the
ratings corresponding to the two lowest risk weights are referred to and the higher of those two risk weights is
applied, i.e., the second lowest risk weight.
Inferred Ratings
z The specific rating assigned by a credit rating agency to a debt or issuance of a borrower or a counterparty (to which
the Bank may or may not have an exposure), which the Bank applies to an un-assessed claim of the Bank on such
borrower or counterparty is considered by the Bank as inferred ratings.
z In terms of guidelines on Basel III capital regulations, the Bank uses a long term rating as an inferred rating for an
un-assessed long term claim on the borrower, where the following conditions are met :
(i) The Bank’s claim ranks pari passu or senior to the specific rated debt in all respects.
(ii) The maturity of the Bank’s claim is not later than the maturity of the rated claim.
z The un-assessed long term claim is assigned the risk weight corresponding to an inferred long term rating as given
in the table under Issue Specific Ratings.
z For an un-assessed short term claim, the Bank uses a long term or short term rating as an inferred rating, where the
Bank’s claim ranks pari passu to the specified rated debt.
z Where a long term rating is used as an inferred rating for a short term un-assessed claim, the risk weight
corresponding to an inferred long term rating as given in the table under Issue Specific Rating is considered by the
Bank.

HDFC Bank Limited Annual Report 2013-14 104


Basel III - Pillar 3 Disclosures

z Where a short term rating is used as an inferred rating for a short term un-assessed claim, the risk weight
corresponding to an inferred short term rating as given in the table under Issue Specific Rating is considered, however
with notch up of the risk weight. Notwithstanding the restriction on using an issue specific short term rating for other
short term exposures, an unrated short term claim on a counterparty is given a risk weight of at least one level higher
than the risk weight applicable to the rated short term claim on that counterparty. If a short term rated facility to a
counterparty attracts a 20% or a 50% risk weight, the unrated short term claims to the same counterparty will get a
risk weight not lower than 30% or 100% respectively.
z If long term ratings corresponding to different risk weights are applicable for a long term exposure, the highest of
the risk weight is considered by the Bank. Similarly, if short term ratings corresponding to different risk weights are
applicable for a short term exposure, the highest of the risk weight is considered. However, where both long term
and short term corresponding to different risk weights are applicable to a short term exposure, the highest of the risk
weight is considered by the Bank for determination of capital charge.
z If a counterparty has a long term exposure with an external long term rating that warrants a risk weight of 150%,
all unrated claims on the same counterparty, whether short term or long term, receives a 150% risk weight, unless
recognised credit risk mitigation techniques have been used for such claims. Similarly, if the counterparty has a short
term exposure with an external short term rating that warrants a risk weight of 150%, all unrated claims on the same
counterparty, whether long term or short term, receive a 150% risk weight.
Issuer Ratings
z Ratings assigned by the credit rating agencies to an entity conveying an opinion on the general creditworthiness of
the rated entity are considered as issuer ratings.
z Where multiple issuer ratings are assigned to an entity by various credit rating agencies, the risk weight for the Bank’s
claims are as follows :
(i) If there is only one rating by a chosen credit rating agency for a particular claim, then that rating is used to
determine the risk weight of the claim.
(ii) If there are two ratings accorded by chosen credit rating agencies, which map into different risk weights, the
higher risk weight is applied.
(iii) If there are three or more ratings accorded by chosen credit rating agencies with different risk weights, the
ratings corresponding to the two lowest risk weights are referred to and the higher of those two risk weights is
applied, i.e., the second lowest risk weight.
z The risk weight assigned to claims on counterparty based on issuer ratings are as those mentioned under Issue
Specific Ratings.

Policies and process
The Bank’s Credit Policies & Procedures Manual and Product Programs include the risk mitigation and collateral
management policy of the Bank. The policy covers aspects on the nature of risk mitigants / collaterals acceptable to the
Bank, the documentation and custodial arrangement of the collateral, the valuation approach and periodicity etc.
For purposes of computation of capital requirement for Credit Risk, the Bank recognizes only those collaterals that are
considered as eligible for risk mitigation in the RBI guidelines, which are as follows :
z Cash deposit with the Bank
z Gold, including bullion and jewelry
z Securities issued by Central and State Governments
z Kisan Vikas Patra and National Savings Certificates (Kisan Vikas Patra is a safe and long term investment option
backed by the Government of India and provides interest income similar to bonds; National Savings Certificates are
certificates issued by the Department of Post, Government of India - it is a long term safe savings option for the
investor and combines growth in money with reductions in tax liability as per the provisions of the Indian Income Tax
Act, 1961)
z Life insurance policies with a declared surrender value of an insurance company which is regulated by the insurance
sector regulator
z Debt securities rated at least BBB(-)/PR3/P3/F3/A3
z Units of Mutual Funds, where the investment is in instruments mentioned above
The Bank uses the comprehensive approach in capital assessment. In the comprehensive approach, when taking collateral,
the Bank calculates the adjusted exposure to a counterparty for capital adequacy purposes by netting off the effects of that
collateral. The Bank adjusts the value of any collateral by a haircut to take into account possible future fluctuations in the
value of the security occasioned by market movements.

HDFC Bank Limited Annual Report 2013-14 105


Basel III - Pillar 3 Disclosures

For purposes of capital calculation, the Bank recognises the credit protection given by the following entities, considered
eligible as per RBI guidelines :
 z Sovereigns, sovereign entities (including Bank for International Settlements (‘BIS’), the International Monetary Fund
(‘IMF’), European Central Bank and European Community as well as Multi-lateral Development Banks like World
Bank Group, IBRD, IFC, Asian Development Bank, African Development Bank, European Bank for Reconstruction
& Development, Inter-American Development Bank, European Investment Bank, European Investment Fund, Nordic
Investment Bank, Caribbean Development Bank, Islamic Development Bank & Council of Europe Development
Bank, Export Credit Guarantee Corporation and Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Small Industries (‘CGTSI’), Credit
Guarantee Fund Trust for Low Income Housing (‘CRGFTLIH’)), banks and primary dealers with a lower risk weight
than the counterparty.
z Other entities that are externally rated. This would include credit protection provided by parent, subsidiary and affiliate
companies when they have a lower risk weight than the obligor.
The credit risk mitigation taken is largely in the form of cash deposit with the Bank and thus the risk (credit and market)
concentration of the mitigants is low.

6. Securitisation Exposures
Objectives, Policies, Monitoring
The Bank undertakes securitization / loan assignment transactions with the objective of maximizing return on capital
employed, managing liquidity, meeting priority sector lending requirements and maximizing yield on asset opportunities.
The RBI issued ‘Revised Securitisation Guidelines’ on May 7, 2012 (hereinafter, the ‘revised securitisation guidelines’)
covering both Securitisation and Loan Assignment transactions separately. The said guidelines define minimum holding
period, minimum retention requirements, due diligence, credit monitoring, stress testing requirements etc. For loan
assignment transactions, credit enhancement has been disallowed under the revised guidelines.
The Bank undertakes both ‘purchase’ and ‘sale’, transactions through both securitization and loan assignment routes and
has Board approved policies for both.
The Bank participates in Securitisation and Loan Assignment transactions in the following roles :
z Originator / Seller
The Bank originates assets in its book and subsequently down-sells them through the securitisation or assignment
route.
z Servicing and Collection agent
For assets sold, the Bank undertakes the activity of collections and other servicing activities including preparation of
monthly payout reports.
z Investor
The Bank invests in Pass Through Certificates (‘PTCs’) backed by financial assets originated by third parties for the
purposes of holding / trading / maximizing yield opportunities and meeting priority sector lending requirements.
z Assignee
The Bank purchases loans through the direct assignment route for purposes of book building and yield optimisation.

HDFC Bank Limited Annual Report 2013-14 106


Basel III - Pillar 3 Disclosures

z ,IQUIDITY FACILITY PROVIDER


In case of sale transactions undertaken through the securitisation route, the Bank may also provide liquidity facility.
This is a type of credit support used to meet temporary collection mismatches on account of timing differences
between the receipt of cash flows from the underlying performing assets and the fulfillment of obligations to the
beneficiaries. The Bank may also undertake to be a third party liquidity facility provider for other securitisation
transactions.
z Credit enhancement provider
Under the revised securitisation guidelines, the Bank may provide credit enhancement on Securitization ‘sale’
transactions undertaken by the Bank / a third party for meeting shortfalls arising on account of delinquencies and
prepayment losses in the underlying pool sold. The Bank may also undertake to be a credit enhancement provider
for securitization transactions originated by third parties.
z Underwriter
The Bank may underwrite in whole or part of an issuance of securitised debt instruments, with the intent of selling
them at a later stage subject to stipulations under the extant RBI guidelines.
The major risks inherent in Securitisation / Loan Assignment transactions are given below :
z Credit Risk
In case of Securitisation transactions, where credit enhancement is provided by the originator or any third party as
permitted under the revised guidelines, the investor bears the loss in case the shortfalls in collections exceed the
credit enhancement provided. Where credit enhancement is provided in the form of a corporate guarantee, the investor
bears the loss that could arise from default by the guarantor which is also reflected in a downgrade in the rating of
the corporate guarantor. In case of Loan Assignment transactions, the assignee bears the loss arising from defaults
/ delinquencies by the underlying obligors.
z Market Risk :
3 ,IQUIDITY 2ISK
This is the risk arising on account of absence of a secondary market, which provides exit options to the investor
/ participant. This risk would be applicable only in case of securitisation transactions.
3 Interest Rate Risk
This is the mark-to-market risk arising on account of interest rate fluctuations.
z Prepayment Risk
Prepayments in the securitised / assigned pool result in early amortisation and loss of future interest (re-investment
risk) to the investor on the amounts.
z #O MINGLING 2ISK
This is the risk arising from co-mingling of funds belong to the investor(s) with those of the originator and / or servicer.
This risk occurs when there is a time lag between collection of amounts due from the obligors and payouts made to
the investors / assignee.
z Servicer Risk
Servicer risk is the risk arising on account of the inability of a collection and processing agent to collect monies from
the underlying obligors and operational difficulties in processing the payments. In long tenor pools, the investor is
exposed to the risk of servicer defaulting or discontinuing its operations in totality.
z 2EGULATORY AND ,EGAL 2ISK
These are risks arising on account of non-compliance of transaction structures with the extant regulatory guidelines
which may result in higher risk weight and hence higher capital charge being applied on the transaction or the Bank
not being able to classify the transactions as priority sector lending. These risks also arise when transactions are
not compliant with applicable laws which may result in the transaction being rendered invalid. Conflict between the
provisions of the transaction documents and those of the underlying financial facility agreement or non-enforceability
of security / claims due to imperfection in execution of the underlying facility agreements with the borrowers could also
lead to an increase in legal risk. Risk could also arise due to issues on interpretation of tax laws leading to changes
in scheduled transaction cash flows.

HDFC Bank Limited Annual Report 2013-14 107


Basel III - Pillar 3 Disclosures

The overall framework for both securitisation and loan assignment transactions is specified in the respective Board approved
policies. The said policies define the covenants for evaluation and the key requirements that need to be adhered to for all
such transactions such as the Minimum Holding Period (‘MHP’) and Minimum Retention Requirement (‘MRR’) stipulations,
credit enhancement (for securitisation transactions), structure, rating and accounting treatment. Additionally, for purchase
transactions, the Bank examines parameters such as the profile and track record of the originator, the type and nature
of underlying assets, pool characteristics, findings of due diligence audits and rating (if applicable), credit enhancement
provided and listing status (in case of securitisation).
The Bank also has a process for monitoring the performance of all pools purchased under securitisation or the loan
assignment route (both prior to as well as post the issuance of the revised securitisation guidelines) basis information
received from the servicing agent / trustee. The performance of pools is measured by analysing parameters such as
collection ratios, delinquencies, credit enhancement utilisation and level of available credit enhancement (where applicable).
The Bank undertakes regular escalation to the Management on performance of pools which show concerning trends. In
case of sold pools, a memorandum on transactions undertaken is put up to the Audit & Compliance Committee of the Board
on a quarterly basis.
Accounting Policy for securitisation transactions
The Bank securitises out its receivables, subject to the MHP criteria and the MRR of RBI, to Special Purpose Vehicles
(‘SPVs’) in securitisation transactions. Such securitised-out receivables are de-recognised in the balance sheet when they
are sold (true sale criteria being fully met with) and consideration is received by the Bank. Sales / transfers that do not meet
these criteria for surrender of control are accounted for as secured borrowings. In respect of receivable pools securitised-
out, the Bank provides liquidity and credit enhancements, as specified by the rating agencies, in the form of cash collaterals
/ guarantees and / or by subordination of cash flows, not exceeding 20% of the total securitised instruments, in line with
RBI guidelines. The Bank also acts as a servicing agent for receivable pools securitised-out.
The Bank also enters into transactions for transfer of standard assets through the direct assignment of cash flows, which
are similar to asset-backed securitisation transactions through the SPV route, except that such portfolios of receivables
are assigned directly to the purchaser and are not represented by Pass through Certificates (‘PTCs’), subject to the RBI
prescribed MHP criteria and the MRR. The RBI issued revised securitisation guidelines on securitisation of standard assets
vide its circular dated May 7, 2012. Accordingly, the Bank does not provide liquidity or credit enhancements on the direct
assignment transactions undertaken subsequent to these guidelines.
Pursuant to the revised securitisation guidelines, the Bank amortises any profit received in cash for every individual
securitisation or direct assignment transaction at the end of every financial year. This amortisation is calculated as the
maximum of either of the three parameters stated below :
z the losses incurred on the portfolio, including marked-to-market losses in case of securitisation transactions, specific
provisions, if any, and direct write-offs made on the MRR and any other exposures to the securitisation transaction
(other than credit enhancing interest only strip); or
z the amount of unamortised cash profit at the beginning of the year multiplied by the amount of principal amortised
during the year as a proportion to the amount of unamortised principal at the beginning of the year; or
z the amount of unamortised cash profit at the beginning of the year divided by residual maturity of the securitisation
or the direct assignment transaction.
In relation to securitisation transactions undertaken prior to the said revised securitisation guidelines, including those
undertaken through the direct assignment route, the Bank continues to amortise the profit / premium that arose on account
of sale of receivables over the life of the securities sold, in accordance with the RBI guidelines on securitisation of standard
assets issued vide its circular dated February 1, 2006.
Any loss arising on account of sale of receivables is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss for the period in which
the sale occurs in accordance with the said RBI guidelines.
The Bank invests in PTCs issued by other SPVs. These are accounted for at the deal value and are classified as
investments. The Bank also buys loans through the direct assignment route which are classified as advances. These are
carried at acquisition cost unless it is more than the face value, in which case the premium is amortised based on Effective
Interest Rate (‘EIR’) method.

7. Market Risk in Trading Book
Market Risk Management Strategies and Processes
The Market Risk management process at the Bank consists of identification and measurement of risks, control measures
and reporting systems. It ensures that the risk taking of the Bank’s treasury desks and the investment banking department
is within the risk appetite encapsulated within the treasury limits package, equity limits package and specific limits approved
by the Board from time to time. The Board approved risk appetite is handed down as limits to the various treasury desks
and the investment banking department. The prescribed limits are monitored by the treasury mid office and reported as per
the guidelines laid down from time to time. The market risk objective, framework and architecture along with the functions
of market risk are detailed in the Board approved Market Risk Policy.
Market Risk Architecture
The market risk process includes the following key participants :
z The Risk Policy & Monitoring Committee (‘RPMC’) of the Board reviews and recommends for approval to the Board,
the Bank’s market risk policies, procedures and limit packages. The Committee supports the Board by supervising
the implementation of the risk strategy. The Committee guides the development of policies, procedures and systems

HDFC Bank Limited Annual Report 2013-14 111


Basel III - Pillar 3 Disclosures

for managing risk. It ensures that these are adequate and appropriate to changing business conditions, the structure
and needs of the Bank and the risk appetite of the Bank. In addition, it monitors the compliance of the Board approved
risk appetite.
z The Market Risk Function covers the assessment of the market risk for treasury portfolio, evaluate / validate methods
for monitoring market risk and prescribes control processes. The Market Risk Function also reviews the valuation
models and the mnemonics definition proposed by the Treasury Analytics department. Market risk is managed under
the guidance of the RPMC of the Board.
z The Treasury Mid-Office is responsible for the day to day monitoring and reporting of market risk controls, valuations
etc. Mid-Office reports any limit breaches to the Senior Management. Mid Office also monitors the counterparty risk
exposures and maintains the market data as per the Operations Manual of Market Data Cell. The Mid-Office functions
for all locations (including overseas branches), is centrally located.
z The Investment Committee oversees and reviews any direct investments in Shares, Convertible Bonds, Convertible
Debentures and any other Equity linked instruments.
z Treasury Desks among others include Foreign Exchange, Money Market, Interest Rate Trading, Trading Derivatives,
Equities and Precious Metal desks which carry out the basic day to day management of the various portfolios and
the underlying market risk within the stipulated market risk limits and other applicable limits, policies and procedures.
z Treasury Analytics unit is responsible for model validation and maintenance of the policy laid down for model valuation
and validation including prescription for market data sources and mnemonics definitions / conventions, which are
further reviewed by Market Risk.
Market Risk Limits Reporting
Types of limits could include position limits, gap limits, tenor and duration limits, PV01 limits, basic risk limits, stop loss
trigger level, value-at-risk limits and option Greek limits. These limits may or may not apply to all portfolios and are
appropriately selected as market risk controls in the various limits packages. The market risk limits are measured and
monitored by the Mid-Office, and subsequently reported to the concerned departments / senior management. Any major
variations in the utilisations of the limit are analysed and reviewed with Market Risk prior to circulation of reports. Any breach
in the limits is acted upon by Treasury Front Office as per the Board approved processes.
The Bank enters into derivative deals with counterparties based on their financial strength and understanding of derivative
products and its risks. In this regard, the Bank has a Customer Suitability and Appropriateness Policy in place. The
Bank sets up appropriate limits having regard to the ability of the counterparty to honor its obligations in the event of
crystallization of the exposure. Appropriate credit covenants are stipulated where required as trigger events to call for
collaterals or terminate a transaction and contain the risk. The Bank also books derivative deals to hedge the interest rate
/ currency risks in borrowings or investments within the ambit of Bank’s hedging processes and policies.

8. Operational Risk
Operational risk is the risk of loss resulting from inadequate or failed internal processes, people and systems or from
external events. The way operational risk is managed has the potential to positively or negatively impact a bank’s customers,
its financial performance and reputation. The Bank has put in place Board approved governance and organizational structure
with clearly defined roles and responsibilities to mitigate operational risk arising out of the Bank’s business and operations.
Organisational Structure for Managing Operational Risk
The RPMC of the Board reviews and recommends to the Board of Directors the overall operational risk management
framework for the Bank. A committee comprised of senior management personnel viz., Operational Risk Management
Committee (‘ORMC’) oversees the implementation of operational risk management framework approved by the Board. The
ORMC is headed by the Deputy Managing Director, the Chief Risk Officer, Head - Audit, Head - Operations and senior

HDFC Bank Limited Annual Report 2013-14 112


Basel III - Pillar 3 Disclosures

representatives from relevant business functions. An independent operational risk management department is responsible
for the implementation of the framework across the Bank. Board approved operational risk management policy stipulates
the roles and responsibilities of employees, business units, operations and support function in managing operational risk.
Risk Measurement and Monitoring
While the day-to-day operational risk management lies with business lines, operations and support functions, the ORMD
is responsible for designing tools and techniques for identification and monitoring of operational risk across the Bank
consistent with the framework approved by the Board. The ORMD also ensures operational risk exposures are captured
and reported to the relevant levels of the management for initiating suitable risk mitigations in order to contain operational
risk exposures within acceptable levels. The Internal audit department provides an independent assurance on the
effectiveness of governance, risk management and internal controls to achieve risk management and control objectives.
The Bank applies a number of risk management techniques to effectively manage operational risks :
z A systematic risk assessment process is followed before rolling out new products and processes. New products are
rolled out after putting in place the required mitigants based on risk assessment and on ensuring required skill sets
and technological resources are in place.
z A bottomup risk assessment process, Risk Control Self-Assessment identifies high risk areas so that the Bank can
initiate timely remedial measures. This assessment is conducted at quarterly rests to update senior management, of
the risk levels across the Bank.
z Key Risk Indicators are employed to alert the Bank on impending problems in a timely manner. These allow monitoring
of the control environment as well as operational risk exposures and trigger risk mitigation actions.
z Material operational risk losses are subjected to detailed risk analysis to identify areas of risk exposures and gaps in
controls basis which appropriate risk mitigating actions are initiated.
z Bank conducts annual scenario analysis to derive information on hypothetical severe loss situations and use the
information for risk management actions, apart from analyzing the plausible financial impact.
z Periodic reporting on risk assessment and monitoring is made to the line as well as to senior management to ensure
timely actions are initiated at all levels.
Capital Requirement
The Bank has devised an operational risk measurement system compliant with Advanced Measurement Approach for
estimating operational risk capital estimate for the Bank. The Bank is in the process of fine tuning the approach and
will subsequently submit the same for regulatory approval. Currently, the Bank follows the Basic Indicator Approach for
estimating operational risk capital.

ALM risk management process consists of management of liquidity risk and Interest Rate Risk in the Banking Book
(‘IRRBB’). Liquidity risk is the risk that the Bank may not be able to fund increases in assets or meet obligations as they
fall due without incurring unacceptable losses. IRRBB refers to the potential adverse financial impact on the Bank’s banking
book from changes in interest rates. The banking book is comprised of assets and liabilities that are contracted on account
of relationship or for steady income and statutory obligations and are generally held till maturity. The Bank carries various
assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet items across markets, maturities and benchmarks exposing it to risks from changing
interest rates. The Bank’s objective is to maintain liquidity risk IRRBB within tolerable limits.
Structure and Organization
The ALM risk management process of the Bank operates in the following hierarchical manner :
z "OARD OF $IRECTORS
The Board has the overall responsibility for management of liquidity and interest rate risks. The Board decides
the strategy, policies and procedures of the Bank to manage liquidity and interest rate risk including setting of risk
tolerance / limits and reviewing of stress test results.
z 2ISK 0OLICY  -ONITORING #OMMITTEE @20-# OF THE "OARD
The RPMC is responsible for evaluating the overall risks faced by the Bank including liquidity and interest rate risks.
The RPMC also addresses the potential interaction of liquidity risk and interest rate risk with the other risks faced by
the Bank.

ALCO is a decision-making unit responsible for ensuring adherence to the risk tolerance / limits set by the Board as
well as implementing the liquidity and interest rate risk management strategy of the Bank in line with the Bank’s risk
management objectives and risk tolerance. The ALCO is also responsible for balance sheet planning from risk-return
perspective including strategic management of liquidity and interest rate risks. The role of the ALCO includes the
following :
i. Product pricing for deposits and advances
ii. Deciding the desired maturity profile and mix of incremental assets and liabilities
iii. Articulating interest rate view of the Bank and deciding on the future business strategy
iv. Reviewing and articulating funding policy
v. Ensuring the adherence to the limits set by the Board of Directors
vi. Determining the structure, responsibilities and controls for managing liquidity and interest rate risk
vii. Ensuring operational independence of risk management function
viii. Reviewing stress test results
ix. Deciding on the transfer pricing policy of the Bank
z !,- /PERATIONAL 'ROUPS
Internal ALM operational groups support the ALM organisation.
Risk Measurement Systems and reporting :
Liquidity Risk is measured using flow approach and stock approach. Flow approach involves comprehensive tracking of
cash flow mismatches. Stock approach involves measurement of critical ratios in respect of liquidity risk. Analysis of liquidity
risk also involves examining how funding requirements are likely to be affected under crisis scenarios. The Bank has a
Board approved liquidity stress framework guided by regulatory instructions. The Bank has an extensive intraday liquidity
risk management framework for monitoring intraday positions during the day.
IRRBB is measured and controlled using both Earnings Perspective (Traditional Gap Analysis) and Economic Value
Perspective (Duration Gap Analysis). Earnings Perspective (Traditional Gap Analysis) measures the sensitivity of net interest
income to changes in interest rate over the next 12 months. It involves bucketing of rate sensitive assets, liabilities and
off-balance sheet items as per residual maturity / re-pricing date in various time bands and computing change of income
under 200 basis points upward and downward rate shocks over a one year horizon. Economic Value Perspective (Duration
Gap Analysis) calculates the change in the present value of the Bank’s expected cash flows for a 200 basis point upward
and downward rate shock. The Bank also undertakes periodic stress testing for its banking book. This provides a measure
to assess the Bank’s financial standing from extreme but plausible interest rate fluctuations. The stress testing framework is
approved by the Board. Periodic risk reports are sent to senior management for review. A risk summary is also presented
at ALCO meetings.
Quantification of IRRBB
The increase / decline in earnings and economic value for an upward / downward rate shock of 200 basis points (‘bps’),
broken down by currency, are as follows :

Counterparty Credit Risk (‘CCR’) limits for the banking counterparties are assessed based on an internal model
that considers the parameters viz. credit rating and net worth of counterparties, net worth of the Bank and business
requirements. In all other cases, CCR limit is approved based on credit assessment process followed by the Bank as per
the Credit Policies and Procedures Manual. CCR limits are set on the amount and tenor while fixing the limits to respective
counterparties with distinct limits for each type of exposure. Capital for CCR exposure is assessed based on Standardised
Approach.
The Bank has entered into Credit Support Annex (‘CSA’) agreements with some of the major international counterparty
banks. CSA defines the terms or rules under which collateral is posted or transferred between derivative counterparties to
mitigate the credit risk arising from "in the money" derivative positions on OTC derivative contracts.
The Bank does not recognize bilateral netting. The derivative exposure is calculated using Current Exposure Method
(‘CEM’). The balance outstanding as on March 31, 2014 is given below.

Schedules to the Consolidated Financial Statements
For the year ended March 31, 2014
The market value of unquoted government securities which qualify for determining the Statutory Liquidity Ratio (‘SLR’)

The valuation of other unquoted fixed income securities (viz. State Government securities, Other approved securities, Bonds
and Debentures) and preference shares, wherever linked to the YTM rates, is done with a mark-up (reflecting associated
credit and liquidity risk) over the YTM rates for government securities published by FIMMDA.
Special Bonds such as Oil Bonds, Fertilizer Bonds etc. which are directly issued by Government of India (‘GOI’) that do
not qualify for SLR are also valued by applying the mark up above the corresponding yield on GOI securities.
Unquoted equity shares are valued at the break-up value, if the latest Balance Sheet is available or at ` 1 as per the RBI
guidelines.
Units of mutual funds are valued at the latest repurchase price / net asset value declared by the mutual fund.
Treasury Bills, Commercial Papers and Certificate of Deposits being discounted instruments, are valued at carrying cost.
Security receipts are valued as per the Net Asset Value provided by the issuing Asset Reconstruction Company from time
to time.
Net depreciation in the value, if any, compared to the acquisition cost, in any of the six groups, is charged to the
Statement of Profit and Loss. The net appreciation, if any, in any of the six groups is not recognised except to the extent
of depreciation already provided. The valuation of investments includes securities under repo transactions. The book value
of individual securities is not changed after the valuation of investments.
Investments classified under HTM category are carried at their acquisition cost and not marked to market. Any premium
on acquisition is amortised over the remaining maturity period of the security on a constant yield to maturity basis. Such
amortisation of premium is adjusted against interest income under the head “Income from investments” as per the RBI
guidelines. Any diminution, other than temporary, in the value of investments in subsidiaries / joint ventures is provided for.
Non-performing investments are identified and depreciation / provision is made thereon based on the RBI guidelines. The
depreciation / provision is not set off against the appreciation in respect of other performing securities. Interest on non-
performing investments is not recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss until received.
Repo and reverse repo transactions :
In accordance with the RBI guidelines Repo and Reverse Repo transactions in government securities and corporate debt
securities (excluding transactions conducted under Liquidity Adjustment Facility (‘LAF’) and Marginal Standby Facility
(‘MSF’) with RBI) are reflected as borrowing and lending transactions respectively. Borrowing cost on repo transactions is
accounted for as interest expense and revenue on reverse repo transactions is accounted for as interest income.
In respect of repo transactions under LAF and MSF with RBI, amount borrowed from RBI is credited to investment account
and reversed on maturity of the transaction. Costs thereon are accounted for as interest expense. In respect of reverse repo
transactions under LAF, amount lent to RBI is debited to investment account and reversed on maturity of the transaction.
Revenues thereon are accounted for as interest income.

as being other than temporary in nature.

2 Advances

HDFC Bank Limited

Classification :

Advances are classified as performing and non-performing based on the RBI guidelines and are stated net of bills
rediscounted, specific provisions, interest in suspense for non-performing advances, claims received from Export Credit
Guarantee Corporation, provisions for funded interest term loan classified as non-performing advances and provisions in
lieu of diminution in the fair value of restructured assets. Interest on non-performing advances is transferred to an interest
suspense account and not recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss until received.

Provisioning :

Specific loan loss provisions in respect of non-performing advances are made based on management’s assessment of the
degree of impairment of wholesale and retail advances, subject to the minimum provisioning level prescribed by the RBI.

The specific provision levels for retail non-performing assets are also based on the nature of product and delinquency
levels. Specific loan loss provisions in respect of non-performing advances are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss
and included under Provisions and Contingencies.

Recoveries from bad debts written-off are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss and included under Other Income.

In relation to non-performing derivative contracts, as per the extant RBI guidelines, the Bank makes provision for the entire
amount of overdue and future receivables relating to positive marked to market value of the said derivative contracts.

The Bank maintains general provision for standard assets including credit exposures computed as per the current marked
to market values of interest rate and foreign exchange derivative contracts and gold at levels stipulated by RBI from time
to time. In the case of overseas branches, general provision on standard advances is maintained at the higher of the levels
stipulated by the respective overseas regulator or RBI. Provision for standard assets is included under Other Liabilities.

Provisions made in excess of these regulatory requirements or provisions which are not made with respect to specific
non-performing assets are categorised as floating provisions. Creation of floating provisions is considered by the Bank up
to a level approved by the Board of Directors. In accordance with the RBI guidelines and as per policy approved by the
Board, floating provisions are not reversed by credit to Statement of Profit and Loss. Floating provisions are used only
for contingencies under extraordinary circumstances wherein these are used for making specific provisions for impaired
accounts. Floating provisions have been included under Other Liabilities.

Further to the provisions required to be held according to the asset classification status, provisions are held for individual
country exposures (other than for home country exposure). Countries are categorised into risk categories as per Export
Credit Guarantee Corporation of India Limited (‘ECGC’) guidelines and provisioning is done in respect of that country where
the net funded exposure is one percent or more of the Bank’s total assets.

In addition to the above, the Bank on a prudential basis makes provisions on advances or exposures which are not NPAs,
but has reasons to believe on the basis of the extant environment or specific information, the possible slippage of a specific
advance or a group of advances or exposures or potential exposures. These are classified as contingent provisions and
included under Other Liabilities.

The Bank considers a restructured account as one where the Bank, for economic or legal reasons relating to the borrower’s
financial difficulty, grants to the borrower concessions that the Bank would not otherwise consider. Restructuring would
normally involve modification of terms of the advance / securities, which would generally include, among others, alteration of
repayment period / repayable amount / the amount of installments / rate of interest (due to reasons other than competitive
reasons). Restructured accounts are classified as such by the Bank only upon approval and implementation of the
restructuring package. Necessary provision for diminution in the fair value of a restructured account is made. Restructuring
of an account is done at a borrower level.

to an interest suspense account and not recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss until received. Loan assets are
recognised on disbursement of loan and in case of new asset financing on the transfer of ownership.
Provisioning :
The Company assesses all receivables for their recoverability and accordingly recognises provision for non performing and
doubtful assets as per approved Company policies and guidelines. The Company ensures provisions made are not lower
than as stipulated by RBI guidelines.

dated January 17, 2011 issued by RBI under the head "Contingent Provision against Standard Assets". The Company has
also made additional provision on standard assets under the head "General provisions". The rate of general provision is
based on the management estimate of future expected losses in loan portfolio. The rate of general provision is calculated
using "probability of default" (PD) and "Loss given default" (LGD)
Loan origination costs :
Brokerage, commission, incentive to employee, etc. paid at the time of acquisition of loans are charged to revenue.
3 Securitisation and transfer of assets
HDFC Bank Limited
The Bank securitises out its receivables subject to the minimum holding period (‘MHP’) criteria and the minimum retention
requirements (‘MRR’) of RBI, to Special Purpose Vehicles (‘SPVs’) in securitisation transactions. Such securitised-out
receivables are de-recognised in the Balance Sheet when they are sold (true sale criteria being fully met with) and
consideration is received by the Bank. Sales / transfers that do not meet these criteria for surrender of control are accounted
for as secured borrowings.
In respect of receivable pools securitised-out, the Bank provides liquidity and credit enhancements, as specified by the
rating agencies, in the form of cash collaterals / guarantees and / or by subordination of cash flows, not exceeding 20% of
the total securitised instruments, in line with RBI guidelines. The Bank also acts as a servicing agent for receivable pools
securitised-out.
The Bank also enters into transactions for transfer of standard assets through the direct assignment of cash flows, which
are similar to asset-backed securitisation transactions through the SPV route, except that such portfolios of receivables
are assigned directly to the purchaser and are not represented by Pass through Certificates (‘PTCs'), subject to the RBI
prescribed MHP criteria and the MRR. The RBI issued addendum guidelines on securitisation of standard assets vide
its circular dated May 7, 2012. Accordingly, the Bank does not provide liquidity or credit enhancements on the direct
assignment transactions undertaken subsequent to these guidelines.
Pursuant to these guidelines, the Bank amortises any profit received in cash for every individual securitisation or direct
assignment transaction at the end of every financial year. This amortisation is calculated as the maximum of either of the
three parameters stated below :
™ i]ZadhhZh^cXjggZYdci]Zedgi[da^d!^cXajY^c\bVg`ZY"id"bVg`ZiadhhZh^cXVhZd[hZXjg^i^hVi^dcigVchVXi^dch!heZX^ÃX
provisions, if any, and direct write-offs made on the MRR and any other exposures to the securitisation transaction
(other than credit enhancing interest only strip); or
™ i]ZVbdjcid[jcVbdgi^hZYXVh]egdÃiVii]ZWZ\^cc^c\d[i]ZnZVgbjai^ea^ZYWni]ZVbdjcid[eg^cX^eVaVbdgi^hZY
during the year as a proportion to the amount of unamortised principal at the beginning of the year; or
™ i]ZVbdjcid[jcVbdgi^hZYXVh]egdÃiVii]ZWZ\^cc^c\d[i]ZnZVgY^k^YZYWngZh^YjVabVijg^ind[i]ZhZXjg^i^hVi^dc
or the direct assignment transaction.
In relation to securitisation transactions undertaken prior to the aforementioned RBI guidelines, including those undertaken
through the direct assignment route, the Bank continues to amortise the profit / premium that arose on account of sale of
receivables over the life of the securities sold, in accordance with the RBI guidelines on securitisation of standard assets
issued vide its circular dated February 1, 2006.

HDFC Bank Limited Annual Report 2013-14 143


Schedules to the Consolidated Financial Statements
For the year ended March 31, 2014
Any loss arising on account of sale of receivables is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss for the period in which
the sale occurs in accordance with the said RBI guidelines.
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.
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 Statement of Profit and Loss. If the sale is for a value
higher than the net book value, the excess provision is not reversed but is utilised to meet the shortfall / loss on account of
sale of other non-performing advances. The RBI issued new guidelines on sale of non-performing advances on February
26, 2014. In accordance with these guidelines, if the sale of non-performing advances is at a price below the net book
value, the shortfall is charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss spread over a period of two years. If the sale is for a
value higher than the net book value, the excess provision is credited to the Statement of Profit and Loss in the year the
amounts are received.
The Bank invests in PTCs issued by other SPVs. These are accounted for at the deal value and are classified as
investments. The Bank also buys loans through the direct assignment route which are classified as advances. These are
carried at acquisition cost unless it is more than the face value, in which case the premium is amortised based on effective
interest rate (EIR) method.
HDB Financial Services Limited
Gains arising on assignment of receivables will be recognised at the end of the tenure of assignment contract as per the
RBI guidelines, while loss, if any is recognised upfront.

Foreign exchange forward contracts not intended for trading, that are entered into to establish the amount of reporting
currency required or available at the settlement date of transaction and are outstanding at the Balance Sheet date, are
effectively valued at the closing spot rate. The premia or discount arising at the inception of such a forward exchange
contract is amortised as expense or income over the life of the contract.
Currency futures contracts are marked to market daily using settlement price on a trading day, which is the closing price
of the respective futures contracts on that day. While the daily settlement price is computed on the basis of the last half
an hour weighted average price of such contract, the final settlement price is taken as the RBI reference rate on the last
trading day of the futures contract or as may be specified by the relevant authority from time to time. All open positions are
marked to market based on the settlement price and the resultant marked to market profit / loss is daily settled with the
exchange.
Contingent Liabilities on account of foreign exchange contracts, currency future contracts, guarantees, letters of credit,
acceptances and endorsements are reported at closing rates of exchange notified by FEDAI as at the Balance Sheet date.
7 Derivative contracts
HDFC Bank Limited
The Bank recognises all derivative contracts (other than those designated as hedges) at fair value, on the date on which
the derivative contracts are entered into and are re-measured at fair value as at the Balance Sheet or reporting dates.
Derivatives are classified as assets when the fair value is positive (positive marked to market value) or as liabilities when
the fair value is negative (negative marked to market value). Changes in the fair value of derivatives other than those
designated as hedges are recognised in the Statement of the Profit and Loss.
Derivative contracts designated as hedges are not marked to market unless their underlying transaction is marked to market.
In respect of derivative contracts that are marked to market, changes in the market value are recognised in Statement
of Profit and Loss in the relevant period. The Bank identifies the hedged item (asset or liability) at the inception of the
transaction itself. Hedge effectiveness is ascertained at the time of the inception of the hedge and periodically thereafter.
Gains or losses arising from hedge ineffectiveness, if any, are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Contingent Liabilities on account of derivative contracts denominated in foreign currencies are reported at closing rates of
exchange notified by FEDAI at the Balance Sheet date.

9 Employee benefits
HDFC Bank Limited
Employee stock option scheme (‘ESOS’)
The Employee Stock Option Scheme (‘the Scheme’) provides for the grant of options to acquire equity shares of the Bank
to its employees. The options granted to employees vest in a graded manner and these may be exercised by the employees
within a specified period.
The Bank follows the intrinsic value method to account for its stock-based employee’s compensation plans. Compensation
cost is measured by the excess, if any, of the market price of the underlying stock over the exercise price as determined
under the option plan. The market price is the closing price on the stock exchange where there is highest trading volume
on the working day immediately preceding the date of grant. Compensation cost, if any is amortised over the vesting period.
Gratuity
The Bank provides for gratuity to all employees. The benefit is in the form of lump sum payment to vested employees
on resignation, retirement, death while in employment or on termination of employment of an amount equivalent to 15
days basic salary payable for each completed year of service. Vesting occurs upon completion of five years of service.
The Bank makes contributions to funds administered by trustees and managed by insurance companies for amounts
notified by the said insurance companies. In respect of erstwhile Lord Krishna Bank (‘eLKB’) employees, the Bank makes
contribution to a fund set up by eLKB and administered by the board of trustees. The defined gratuity benefit plans are
valued by an independent actuary as at the Balance Sheet date using the projected unit credit method as per the requirement of
AS-15 (Revised 2005), Employee Benefits to determine the present value of the defined benefit obligation and the related
service costs. Under this method, the determination is based on actuarial calculations, which include assumptions about

HDFC Bank Limited Annual Report 2013-14 148


Schedules to the Consolidated Financial Statements
For the year ended March 31, 2014
demographics, early retirement, salary increases and interest rates. Actuarial gain or loss is recognised in the Statement
of Profit and Loss.

Superannuation

Employees of the Bank, above a prescribed grade, are entitled to receive retirement benefits under the Bank’s
Superannuation Fund. The Bank contributes a sum equivalent to 13% of the employee’s eligible annual basic salary (15%
for the Managing Director, Executive Directors and for certain eligible erstwhile Centurion Bank of Punjab (‘eCBoP’) staff)
to insurance companies, which administer the fund. The Bank has no liability for future superannuation fund benefits other
than its contribution, and recognises such contributions as an expense in the year incurred, as such contribution is in the
nature of defined contribution.

Provident fund

In accordance with law, all employees of the Bank are entitled to receive benefits under the provident fund.

The Bank contributes an amount, on a monthly basis, at a determined rate (currently 12% of employee’s basic salary).
Of this, the Bank contributes an amount equal to 8.33% of employee’s basic salary up to a maximum salary level of
` 6,500/- per month, to the Pension Scheme administered by the Regional Provident Fund Commissioner (‘RPFC’).
The balance amount is contributed to a fund set up by the Bank and administered by a board of trustees. In respect of
eCBoP employees, employer’s and employee’s share of contribution to Provident Fund till March 2009, was administered
by RPFC and from April 2009 onwards, the same is transferred to fund set up by the Bank and administered by the board
of trustees. In respect of eLKB employees, the Bank contributes to a fund set up by eLKB and administered by a board
of trustees. The Bank recognises such contributions as an expense in the year in which it is incurred. Interest payable to
the members of the trust shall not be lower than the statutory rate of interest declared by the Central government under
the Employees Provident Funds and Miscellaneous Provisions Act 1952 and shortfall, if any, shall be made good by the
Bank. The guidance note on implementing AS-15 (revised 2005), Employee Benefits, states that benefits involving employer
established provident funds, which require interest shortfalls to be provided, are to be considered as defined benefit plans.
Actuarial valuation of this Provident Fund interest shortfall is done as per the guidance note issued in this respect by the
Actuarial Society of India and provision towards this liability is made.

The overseas branches of the bank makes contributions to the respective relevant government scheme calculated as a
percentage of the employees’ salaries. The Bank's obligations are limited to these contributions, which are expensed when
due, as such contribution is in the nature of defined contribution.

Leave encashment / Compensated absences

The Bank does not have a policy of encashing unavailed leave for its employees, except for certain eLKB employees under
Indian Banks Association (‘IBA’) structure. The Bank provides for leave encashment / compensated absences based on
an independent actuarial valuation at the Balance Sheet date, which includes assumptions about demographics, early
retirement, salary increases, interest rates and leave utilisation.

Pension

In respect of pension payable to certain eLKB employees under IBA structure, which is a defined benefit scheme, the
Bank contributes 10% of basic salary to a pension fund set up by the Bank and administered by the board of trustees and
the balance amount is provided based on actuarial valuation as at the Balance Sheet date conducted by an independent
actuary.

In respect of certain eLKB employees who had moved to a Cost to Company (‘CTC’) driven compensation structure and
have completed less than 15 years of service, the contribution which was made until then, is maintained as a fund and will
be converted into annuity on separation after a lock-in-period of two years. For this category of employees, liability stands
frozen and no additional provision is required except for interest as applicable to Provident Fund, which is provided for.

In respect of certain eLKB employees who moved to a CTC structure and had completed service of more than 15 years,
pension would be paid on separation based on salary applicable as on the date of movement to CTC structure. Provision
thereto is made based on actuarial valuation as at the Balance Sheet date conducted by an independent actuary.

HDFC Securities Limited
Short term
Short term employee benefits include salaries and performance incentives. A liability is recognised for the amount expected
to be paid under short-term cash bonus or profit sharing plans if the Company has a present legal or informal obligation to
pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee, and the obligation can be estimated reliably. These
costs are recognised as an expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss at the undiscounted amount expected to be paid
over the period of services rendered by the employees to the Company.
Long term
The Company offers its employees long term benefits by way of defined-contribution and defined-benefit plans, of which
some have assets in special funds or securities. The plans are financed by the Company and in the case of some defined
contribution plans by the Company along with its employees.
Defined-contribution plans
These are plans in which the Company pays pre-defined amounts to separate funds and does not have any legal or informal
obligation to pay additional sums. These comprise of contributions to the employees’ provident fund, family pension fund
and superannuation fund. The Company’s payments to the defined-contribution plans are reported as expenses during the
period in which the employees perform the services that the payment covers.
Defined-benefit plans
Expenses for defined-benefit gratuity plan are calculated as at the balance sheet date by an independent actuary in a
manner that distributes expenses over the employee’s working life. These commitments are valued at the present value of
the expected future payments, with consideration for calculated future salary increases, using a discount rate corresponding
to the interest rate estimated by the actuary having regard to the interest rate on government bonds with a remaining
term that is almost equivalent to the average balance working period of employees. The fair values of the plan assets
are deducted in determining the net liability. When the fair value of plan assets exceeds the commitments computed as
aforesaid, the recognised asset is limited to the net total of any cumulative past service costs and the present value of any
economic benefits available in the form of reductions in future contributions to the plan.
Actuarial losses or gains are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the year in which they arise.
Other employee benefits
Compensated absences which accrue to employees and which can be carried to future periods but are expected to be
availed in twelve months immediately following the year in which the employee has rendered service are reported as
expenses during the year in which the employees perform the services that the benefit covers and the liabilities are reported
at the undiscounted amount of the benefits.
Where there are restrictions on availment of such accrued benefit or where the availment is otherwise not expected to
wholly occur in the next twelve months, the liability on account of the benefit is actuarially determined using the projected
unit credit method.
Share-based payment transactions
Equity settled stock options granted under the Company’s Employee Stock Option Schemes are accounted for as per
the accounting treatment prescribed by the Guidance Note on Employee Share-based Payments issued by the Institute
of Chartered Accountants of India. The intrinsic value of the option being excess of fair value of the underlying share
immediately prior to date of grant over its exercise price is recognised as deferred employee compensation with a credit
to employee stock option outstanding account. The deferred employee compensation is charged to Statement of Profit
and Loss on straight line basis over the vesting period of the option. The options that lapse are reversed by a credit to
employee compensation expense, equal to the amortised portion of value of lapsed portion and credit to deferred employee
compensation expense equal to the unamortised portion.
HDB Financial Services Limited

days basic salary payable for each completed year of service. Vesting occurs upon completion of five years of service. The
Company makes annual contributions to fund administered by trustees and managed by insurance companies for amounts

forward subject to a prescribed maximum days. The Company provides for compensated absences in accordance with

valuation at the balance sheet date.
10 Debit and credit cards reward points
HDFC Bank Limited
The Bank estimates the probable redemption of debit and credit card reward points and cost per point using an actuarial
method by employing an independent actuary, which includes assumptions such as mortality, redemption and spends.
Provisions for the said reward points are made based on the actuarial valuation report as furnished by the said independent
actuary.
11 Bullion
HDFC Bank Limited

HDFC Bank Limited Annual Report 2013-14 151


Schedules to the Consolidated Financial Statements
For the year ended March 31, 2014
year. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for the future tax consequences of timing differences between the
carrying values of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, and operating loss carried forward, if any. Deferred
tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted or substantively enacted tax rates as at the Balance Sheet date.

Current tax assets and liabilities and deferred tax assets and liabilities are off-set when they relate to income taxes levied
by the same taxation authority, when the Bank has a legal right to off-set and when the Bank intends to settle on a net
basis.

Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent there is reasonable certainty that the assets can be realised in future.
In case of unabsorbed depreciation or carried forward loss under taxation laws, deferred tax assets are recognised only if
there is virtual certainty of realisation of such assets. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date and
appropriately adjusted to reflect the amount that is reasonably / virtually certain to be realised.

14 Earnings per share

Group

The Group reports basic and diluted earnings per equity share in accordance with AS-20, Earnings per Share. Basic
earnings per equity share has been computed by dividing net profit for the year attributable to equity shareholders by
the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential
dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue equity shares were exercised or converted to equity during
the year. Diluted earnings per equity share are computed using the weighted average number of equity shares and the
dilutive potential equity shares outstanding during the period except where the results are anti-dilutive.

15 Segment information

Group

The segmental classification to the respective segments is in accordance with the guidelines issued by RBI.

16 Accounting for provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets

Group

In accordance with AS-29, Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets, the Group recognises provisions when
it has a present obligation as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic
benefits will be required to settle the obligation and when a reliable estimate of the amount of the obligation can be made.

Provisions are determined based on management estimate required to settle the obligation at the Balance Sheet date,
supplemented by experience of similar transactions. These are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date and adjusted to reflect
the current management 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 the 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, if any, are not recognised in the financial statements since this may result in the recognition of income
that may never be realised.

17 Cash and cash equivalents

Group

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, balances with RBI, balances with other banks and money at call and
short notice.

approved at the ensuing Annual General Meeting.
4 Accounting for employee share based payments
HDFC Bank Limited
The shareholders of the Bank approved grant of equity share options under Plan "B" in June 2003, Plan "C" in June 2005,
Plan "D" in June 2007, Plan "E" in June 2010 and Plan “F” in June 2013. Under the terms of each of these Plans, the Bank
may issue Equity Stock Options ('ESOPs') to employees and whole time directors of the Bank, each of which is convertible
into one equity share. All the plans were framed in accordance with the SEBI (Employee Stock Option Scheme & Employee
Stock Purchase Scheme) Guidelines, 1999 as amended from time to time.
Plans B, C, D, E and F provide for the issuance of options at the recommendation of the Compensation Committee at the
closing price on the working day immediately preceding the date when options are granted. For Plan B the price is that
quoted on an Indian stock exchange with the highest trading volume during the preceding two weeks, while for Plans C,
D, E and F the price is the closing price of the share on an Indian stock exchange with the highest trading volume as of
the working day preceding the date of grant.
Vesting conditions applicable to the options are at the discretion of the Compensation Committee. These options are
exercisable on vesting, for a period as set forth by the Compensation Committee at the time of grant. The period in which
options may be exercised cannot exceed five years. Modifications, if any, made to the terms and conditions of ESOPs as
approved by the Compensation Committee are disclosed separately.
The erstwhile Centurion Bank of Punjab (‘eCBoP’) had granted stock options to its employees prior to its amalgamation
with the Bank. The options were granted under the General ESOP Scheme framed in accordance with the SEBI (Employee
Stock Option Scheme & Employee Stock Purchase Scheme) Guidelines, 1999 as amended from time to time. The
outstanding options granted by eCBoP and the grant price thereof were converted into equivalent HDFC Bank options
and prices in the swap ratio of 1:29 i.e. 1 stock option of HDFC Bank for every 29 stock options granted and outstanding
of eCBoP as on May 23, 2008, the effective date of the amalgamation, in accordance with Clause 9.9 of the scheme of
amalgamation of eCBoP with the Bank. The vesting dates for the said stock options granted in various tranches were
revised as per Clause 9.9 of the Scheme. The aforesaid stock options are exercisable within a period of 5 years from the
date of vesting. Options granted under the General ESOP scheme were granted at the market price. The market price was
the latest available closing price, prior to the date of meeting of the Board of Directors / Compensation Committee in which
options were granted or shares were issued, on the stock exchange on which the shares of the Bank were listed. If the
shares were listed on more than one stock exchange, then the stock exchange where there was highest trading volume
on the said date was considered.
Method used for accounting for shared based payment plan
The Bank has elected to use intrinsic value method to account for the co mpensation cost of stock options to employees
and whole time directors of the Bank. Intrinsic value is the amount by which the quoted market price of the underlying
share exceeds the exercise price of the option.
