1. We have audited the attached Balance Sheet of ICICI Bank Limited
(the Bank) as at March 31, 2009 and also the Profit and Loss Account
and the Cash Flow Statement for the year then ended, both annexed
thereto. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Banks management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audit. Incorporated in the said
financial statements are the returns of the Singapore, Bahrain and Hong
Kong branches of the Bank, audited by other auditors.
2. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards
generally accepted in India. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatements. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts
and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made
by the management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statements presentation. We believe that our audit provides a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
3. We did not audit the financial statements of the Singapore, Bahrain
and Hong Kong branches of the Bank, whose financial statements reflect
total assets of Rs 812,373.4 million as at March 31, 2009, total
revenues of Rs 46,276.6 million and cash flows of Rs (4,607.5) million
for the year then ended. These financial statements have been audited
by other auditors, duly qualified to act as auditors in the country of
incorporation of the said branches, whose reports have been furnished
to us, and which were relied upon by us for our opinion on the
financial statements of the Bank.
4. The Balance Sheet and the Profit and Loss Account have been drawn
up in accordance with the provisions of Section 29 of the Banking
Regulation Act, 1949 read with Section 211(1), (2) and (3C) of the

ii) the transactions of the Bank, which have come to our notice, have
been within the powers of the Bank;
iii) the returns received from the offices and branches of the Bank
have been found adequate for the purposes of our audit.
6. In our opinion, the Balance Sheet, the Profit and Loss Account and
the Cash Flow Statement dealt with by this report comply with the
accounting principles generally accepted in India including Accounting
Standards referred to in subsection (3C) of section 211 of the
Companies Act, 1956, to the extent they are not inconsistent with the
accounting policies prescribed by the Reserve Bank of India.
7. We further report that:
i) the Balance Sheet, Profit and Loss Account and Cash Flow Statement
dealt with by this report are in agreement with the books of account
and the returns;

in preparing our report in the manner considered appropriate by us;

the explanations given to us and on consideration of reports submitted
by the Singapore, Bahrain and Hong Kong branch auditors, the said
financial statements together with the notes thereon give the
information required by the Banking Regulation Act, 1949 as well as the
Companies Act, 1956, in the manner so required for banking companies
and give a true and fair view in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in India:
i) in the case of the Balance Sheet, of the state of affairs of the
Bank as at March 31, 2009;
