 4.  Employee Benefits
 
 a) Retirement Benefits
 
 The employee benefits on account of pension, gratuity and Leave have
 been ascertained on actuarial valuation in accordance with Accounting
 Standard – 15 (revised).
 
 During the year, the Bank had re-opened the pension option for those
 employees who had joined the Bank prior to 29th September, 1995 and had
 not opted for the pension scheme earlier. Consequently, 2217 employees
 had exercised their option for the pension scheme and the bank has
 incurred an extra liability of Rs. 135.13 Crore.  Further, during the
 year the limit of gratuity payable to the employees of the bank was
 also enhanced from Rs. 3.50 Lakhs to Rs. 10.00 Lakhs, pursuant to the
 amendment to the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. As a result, the
 gratuity liability of the Bank has increased by Rs. 21.40 Crore. The
 extra cost of pension and gratuity to employees works out to Rs. 156.53
 Crore.
 
 In terms of the requirements of the Accounting Standard (AS) 15,
 Employee Benefits, the entire amount of Rs. 156.53 Crore is required to
 be charged to the Profit and loss account of the current year. However,
 in accordance with the circular issued by Reserve Bank of India vide
 reference number DBOD.BP.BC.80/21.04.018/2010–11 dated February 9,
 2011, and made applicable to our bank vide DBOD
 No.BP.BC.15896/21.04.018/2010–11 dated April 8, 2011, the Bank would
 amortise the amount of Rs. 156.53 Crore over a period of five years.
 Accordingly, Rs. 31.31 Crore (representing one-fifth of Rs. 156.53
 Crore) has been charged to the profit and loss account of the current
 year and the balance amount of Rs. 125.22 Crore has been carried
 forward for write off in next four years.  The liability arising on
 account of retired employees who exercised option for pension amounting
 to Rs. 3.88 Crore has been charged to the Profit and Loss Account of
 the current year.
 
 Had the above circular been not issued by the RBI, profit of the Bank
 would have been lower by Rs. 125.22 Crore
