Business Overview

 

ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

During fiscal 2010, India witnessed a significant revival in economic activity following the moderation in fiscal 2009. The economic recovery was evident across a wide range of sectors with the momentum gaining strength in the second half of fiscal 2010. Industrial activity, as reflected by the Index of Industrial Production (IIP), increased by 10.4% during fiscal 2010 as against 2.7% in fiscal 2009. During October 2009-March 2010 the IIP increased by 14.3% compared to 0.6% during the corresponding period in the previous year. The growth in IIP was largely driven by the manufacturing sector which recorded a growth of 10.9% during fiscal 2010 compared to 3.1% during the corresponding period in the previous year. Growth in the manufacturing sector accelerated to 15.4% during October 2009-March 2010 compared to 0.4% during the corresponding period in the previous year. External trade also revived from the third quarter of fiscal 2010, with growth in exports turning positive from October 2009, after a decline for 12 consecutive months. Equity markets also witnessed strong revival in fiscal 2010 with the BSE Sensex increasing by 80.5% from 9,709 at March 31, 2009 to 17,528 at March 31, 2010. The growth in gross domestic product (GDP) during the first half of fiscal 2010 was 7.0% compared to 6.0% during the second half of fiscal 2009. However, during the third quarter of fiscal 2010, GDP growth moderated to 6.0% mainly due to a 2.8% decline in agricultural output following below normal monsoons, and moderation in services sector growth to 6.6%. Reflecting the overall improvement in the economy, the Central Statistical Organisation (CSO) has placed advance estimates of GDP growth for fiscal 2010 at 7.2%. Liquidity in the system remained comfortable following the continuation of a relatively accommodative monetary policy stance for a large part of fiscal 2010. During fiscal 2010, capital flows revived significantly with net foreign institutional investment inflows of US$ 23.6 billion during April-December 2009 compared to net outflows of US$ 11.3 billion in the corresponding period of fiscal 2009. Net foreign direct investments at US$ 16.5 billion during April-December 2009 were also higher as compared to US$ 14.3 billion during the corresponding period of the previous year. The revival in trade and lower oil prices combined with strong capital inflows improved India’s balance of payments, which recorded a surplus of US$ 11.3 billion in the first nine months of fiscal 2010 as compared to a deficit of US$ 20.4 billion in the corresponding period of fiscal 2009. The rupee appreciated by 11.4% against the US dollar from Rs. 51.0 per US dollar at year-end fiscal 2009 to Rs. 45.1 per US dollar at year-end fiscal 2010. During the second half of fiscal 2010, inflationary pressures increased driven largely by food price inflation. Inflation as measured by the Wholesale Price Index increased from a low of –1.0% in June 2009 to 9.9% in March 2010. Following the recovery in economic activity and increased inflationary concerns, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) commenced its exit from the monetary policy stance adopted in response to the global financial crisis. RBI increased the statutory liquidity ratio (SLR) by 100 basis points from 24.0% to 25.0% in October 2009, the cash reserve ratio (CRR) by 75 basis points to 5.75% in February 2010 and the repo and reverse repo rates by 25 basis points each to 5.0% and 3.5% respectively in March 2010. RBI, in its annual policy review in April 2010, announced a further increase of 25 basis points each in CRR to 6.0%, repo rate to 5.25% and reverse repo rate to 3.75%. In addition to the increase in policy rates, RBI also withdrew the special liquidity support measures instituted in fiscal 2009 in response to the global financial crisis. As a result of inflationary concerns, increased policy rates and the large government borrowing programme, the yield on 10-year government securities increased by 81 basis points from 7.01% at March 31, 2009 to 7.82% at March 31, 2010. The pace of economic recovery in India is reflective of the transitory impact of the global financial crisis on the Indian economy. India’s strong domestic fundamentals are expected to remain operative over the long-term, with the twin drivers of consumption and investment supporting sustained high growth for the economy. Over the next year, while economic recovery is expected to strengthen and assume a broad-based nature, the management of inflation expectations, the pace of withdrawal of stimulus measures and the management of systemic liquidity in view of the large government borrowing programme and the impact of volatile global markets on capital flows will be key factors impacting the economy and financial markets.

 

FINANCIAL SECTOR OVERVIEW

 

During fiscal 2010, the year-on-year growth in non-food bank credit declined from 17.8% in March 2009 to 16.9%

in March 2010. Based on data published by RBI, for the period upto February 26, 2010, year-on-year growth in nonfood bank credit was driven primarily by a 24.4% growth in credit to agriculture and allied activities and a 20.1% growth in credit to the industrial sector. Within the industrial sector, credit to infrastructure grew by 42.3% during this period. At February 26, 2010, industry accounted for 43.2% of non-food gross bank credit, retail credit or 20.1%, agriculture and allied activities for 12.8%, trade for 5.7%, real estate for 3.2% and other sectors for the balance 15.0%. During fiscal 2010, the growth in total deposits was 17.0% as compared to a growth of 19.9% during fiscal 2009. The decline in growth was primarily due to a moderation in growth in time deposits from 23.9% in fiscal 2009 to 16.2% in fiscal 2010. Demand deposits after witnessing a decline of 0.2% in fiscal 2009 grew by 22.2% in fiscal 2010. The credit-deposit ratio remained within the range of 68.0%-72.0% during fiscal 2010 and was about 72.0% in March 2010. The recovery in economic activity and improvement in financial markets during fiscal 2010 led to a revival in the demand for financial savings and investment products, benefiting the life insurance and mutual fund sectors. First year retail premium underwritten in the life insurance sector increased by 16.7% (on weighted received premium basis) to Rs. 550.24 billion in fiscal 2010 with the private sector’s retail market share (on weighted received premium basis) at 52.3% in fiscal 2010. Total assets under management (on average assets basis) of mutual funds increased by 51.5% from Rs. 4,932.85 billion in March 2009 to Rs. 7,475.25 billion in March 2010. Gross premium in the non-life insurance sector (excluding specialised insurance institutions) grew by 13.4% to Rs. 347.55 billion in fiscal 2010 compared to growth rates of 9.2% in fiscal 2009 and 12.3% in fiscal 2008, with the private sector’s market share at 40.9% in fiscal 2010. There were a number of key policy developments in the banking sector during fiscal 2010. In continuation of the liberalisation of the banking sector, in June 2009, banks were allowed to open offsite ATMs without prior approval from RBI. The branch authorisation policy was also liberalised in December 2009 and banks were allowed to open branches in Tier III-VI cities without prior RBI approval. In August 2009, RBI also issued guidelines relating to the issuance and operation of mobile phone based pre-paid payment instruments. In July 2009, RBI issued a time schedule for the introduction of advanced approaches of the Basel II framework in India whereby banks are required to apply to RBI for migration to internal models approach for market risk and the standardised approach for operational risk earliest by April 1, 2010 and for advanced measurement approach for operational risk and internal ratings based approaches for credit risk earliest by April 1, 2012. RBI also initiated several measures to increase systemic transparency and customer convenience. In April 2010, RBI issued guidelines directing banks to replace the benchmark prime lending rate system with a base rate system effective July 2010. The guidelines recommend calculating the base rate taking into consideration cost elements that can be clearly identified and are common across borrowers. RBI also issued guidelines revising the method of payment of interest on savings accounts to a daily average basis effective April 1, 2010. During fiscal 2010, with an improvement in market conditions, RBI also initiated several measures to maintain systemic stability. In November 2009, the provisioning requirement for advances to commercial real estate classified as standard assets was increased from 0.4% to 1.0%. In December 2009, RBI directed banks to achieve a total provisioning coverage ratio of 70% by September 2010. In February 2010, in its master circular on capital adequacy, RBI increased the capital requirements relating to securitisation exposures and provided enhanced guidance on valuation adjustments for illiquid investments and derivatives. The guidelines also increased disclosure requirements for credit risk mitigations and securitised exposures. The Indian financial sector has remained resilient to the volatility in global markets. The banking sector is healthyand remains well capitalised to benefit from the recovery in domestic economic activity.

The improved gas availability and pipeline connectivity is also expected to drive the expansion of city gas network.

ICICI Life’s total premium increased by 7.7% to Rs. 165.32 billion in fiscal 2010 with renewal premiums increasing by 19.4%. ICICI Life’s new business annualised premium equivalent was Rs. 53.45 billion in fiscal 2010.

ICICI Life’s unaudited New Business Profit in fiscal 2010 was Rs. 10.15 billion. Life insurance companies make accounting losses in initial years due to business set-up and customer acquisition costs in the initial years and reserving for actuarial liability. Further, in India, amortisation of acquisition costs is not permitted. These factors resulted in statutory losses for ICICI Life since the company’s inception till fiscal 2009. If properly priced, life insurance policies are profitable over the life of the policy, but at the time of sale, there is a loss on account of non-amortised expenses and commissions, generally termed as new business strain that emerges out of new business written during the year. New Business Profit is an alternate measure of the underlying business profitability (as opposed to the statutory profit or loss) and is the present value of the profits of the new business written during the year. It is based on standard economic and non-economic assumptions including risk discount rates, investment returns, mortality, expenses and persistency assumptions.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

 

BACKGROUND

 

The economic environment in India improved significantly during fiscal 2010 with growth reviving following the moderation in fiscal 2009. The Index of Industrial Production increased by 10.4% during fiscal 2010 compared to 2.7% during fiscal 2009. Exports growth also turned positive from October 2009 after declining for 12 consecutive months. Net FII inflows into India revived to US$ 23.6 billion during April-December 2009 compared to net outflows of US$ 11.3 billion during the corresponding period in the previous year. The growth in gross domestic product (GDP) during the first half of fiscal 2010 was 7.0% compared to 6.0% during the second half of fiscal 2009. During the third quarter of fiscal 2010, GDP growth moderated to 6.0% mainly due to a 2.8% decline in agricultural output following below normal monsoons, and moderation in services sector growth to 6.6%. The Central Statistical Organisation (CSO) has placed advance estimates of GDP growth for fiscal 2010 at 7.2%. During the second half of fiscal 2010, inflationary pressures increased driven largely by food price inflation. Inflation as measured by the wholesale price index increased from a low of –1.0% in June 2009 to 9.9% in March

2010. In view of inflationary pressures and the recovery in economic activity, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) commenced the exit of the accommodative stance adopted in response to the global financial crisis. RBI increased the statutory liquidity ratio (SLR) by 100 basis points from 24.0% to 25.0% in October 2009, the cash reserve ratio (CRR) by 75 basis points to 5.75% in February 2010 and the repo and reverse repo rates by 25 basis points each to 5.0% and 3.5% respectively in March 2010. The RBI in its annual policy review in April 2010 announced a further increase of 25 basis points each in CRR to 6.0%, repo rate to 5.25% and reverse repo rate to 3.75%. As a result of inflationary concerns, increased policy rates and the large government borrowing programme, the yield on 10-year government securities increased by 81 basis points from 7.01% at March 31, 2009 to 7.82% at March 31, 2010. During fiscal 2010, equity markets recovered significantly with the BSE Sensex increasing by 80.5% from 9,709 at March 31, 2009 to 17,528 at March 31, 2010. The rupee appreciated from Rs. 51.0 per US dollar at year-end fiscal 2009 to Rs. 45.1 per US dollar at year-end fiscal 2010. The trends in the economy were also reflected in the banking sector. Non-food credit growth at end December 2009 was 12.7% on a year-on-year basis as compared to 17.8% at March 2009. There was some revival in credit growth during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010 with non-food credit growth reaching 16.9% at end-fiscal 2010. Growth in total deposits moderated from 19.9% on a year-on-year basis at end-fiscal 2009 to 17.0% at year-end fiscal 2010. The moderation was due to a lower growth of 16.2% in term deposits during fiscal 2010 compared to 23.9% in fiscal 2009 while demand deposits increased by 22.2% compared to a decline of 0.2% in fiscal 2009.

 

STANDALONE FINANCIALS AS PER INDIAN GAAP

 

Summary

 

During fiscal 2010, They  accorded priority to improving Their low cost deposit base, conserving capital, improving cost efficiency and improving Their credit quality. The key elements of Their strategy for fiscal 2011 will include continued growth in CASA and retail term deposits, capitalising on opportunities in select asset segments including home loans, other secured retail loans, project finance and commercial banking activities, maintaining cost efficiency even as absolute level of expenses is expected to increase in line with business growth and continued focus on reduction in credit losses. Profit before provisions and tax increased by 9.0% from Rs. 89.25 billion in fiscal 2009 to Rs. 97.32 billion in fiscal 2010 primarily due to an increase in treasury income from Rs. 4.43 billion in fiscal 2009 to Rs. 11.81 billion in fiscal 2010 and a 16.8% decrease in non-interest expenses from Rs. 70.45 billion in fiscal 2009 to Rs. 58.60 billion in fiscal 2010, offset, in part, by a 3.0% decrease in net interest income from Rs. 83.67 billion in fiscal 2009 to Rs. 81.14 billion in fiscal 2010 and a 13.4% decrease in fee income from Rs. 65.24 billion in fiscal 2009 to Rs. 56.50 billion in fiscal 2010. Provisions and contingencies (excluding provision for tax) increased by 15.2% from Rs. 38.08 billion in fiscal 2009 to Rs. 43.87 billion in fiscal 2010 due to a higher level of specific provisioning on non-performing retail loans and restructured corporate loans. Profit before tax increased by 4.5% from Rs. 51.17 billion in fiscal 2009 to Rs. 53.45 billion in fiscal 2010. Tax provision decreased from Rs. 13.59 billion in fiscal 2009 to Rs. 13.20 billion in fiscal 2010 primarily due to a change in the mix of taxable profits with a higher component of exempt income, abolition of fringe benefit tax, offset, in part, by a negative impact of revaluation of deferred tax asset due to reduction in surcharge from 10.0% to 7.5% vide Finance Act, 2010. Profit after tax increased by 7.1% from Rs. 37.58 billion in fiscal 2009 to Rs. 40.25 billion in fiscal 2010. Net interest income decreased by 3.0% from Rs. 83.67 billion in fiscal 2009 to Rs. 81.14 billion in fiscal 2010, primarily due to a decrease in average interest-earning assets by 5.1% from Rs. 3,436.20 billion in fiscal 2009 to Rs. 3,259.66 billion in fiscal 2010, offset, in part, by an increase in the net interest margin from 2.4% in fiscal 2009 to 2.5% in fiscal 2010. Non-interest income decreased by 1.6% from Rs. 76.03 billion in fiscal 2009 to Rs. 74.78 billion in fiscal 2010, primarily due to a decrease in fee income by 13.4% from Rs. 65.24 billion in fiscal 2009 to Rs. 56.50 billion in fiscal 2010, offset, in part by an increase in treasury income from Rs. 4.43 billion in fiscal 2009 to Rs. 11.81 billion in fiscal 2010. Non-interest expense decreased by 16.8% from Rs. 70.45 billion in fiscal 2009 to Rs. 58.60 billion in fiscal 2010, primarily due to a decrease in direct marketing agency expenses from Rs. 5.29 billion in fiscal 2009 to Rs. 1.25 billion in fiscal 2010 and a reduction in salary and other operating expenses from Rs. 65.16 billion in fiscal 2009 to Rs. 57.35 billion in fiscal 2010 on account of overall cost reduction initiatives undertaken by us. Provisions and contingencies (excluding provision for tax) increased by 15.2% from Rs. 38.08 billion in fiscal 2009 to Rs. 43.87 billion in fiscal 2010 primarily due to a higher level of specific provisioning on non-performing retail loans and restructured corporate loans. The increase in provisions for retail non-performing assets was primarily on account of seasoning of the secured loan portfolio, losses on the unsecured loan portfolio, challenges in collections and the impact of adverse macro-economic environment experienced in fiscal 2009. Total assets decreased by 4.2% from Rs. 3,793.01 billion at year-end fiscal 2009 to Rs. 3,634.00 billion at yearend fiscal 2010, primarily due to a decrease in advances by Rs. 371.05 billion, offset, in part, by an increase in investments by Rs. 178.35 billion.
