3 The above financial results have been approved by the Board of Directors at its meeting held on April 16, 2022. The financial results for the quarter and year ended March 31, 2022 have been subjected to an audit by the statutory auditors (M S K A & Associates, Chartered Accountants and M M Nissim & Co LLP, Chartered Accountants) of the Bank. The financial results for the quarter and year ended March 31, 2021 were audited by M S K A & Associates, Chartered Accountants.

4 The Bank has applied its significant accounting policies in the preparation of these financial results consistent with those followed in the annual financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2021 except for its stock based employee compensation plans. The RBI, vide its clarification dated August 30, 2021 on Guidelines on Compensation of Whole Time Directors / Chief Executive Officers / Material Risk Takers and Control Function Staff, advised Banks that the fair value of share-linked instruments on the date of grant should be recognised as an expense for all instruments granted after the accounting period ending March 31, 2021. Accordingly, the Bank has changed its accounting policy from the intrinsic value method to the fair value method for all employee stock options granted after March 31, 2021. The fair value is estimated on the date of grant using Black-Scholes model and is recognised as compensation expense over the vesting period. As a result, Employees cost for the quarter and year ended March 31, 2022 is higher by ₹ 117.98 crore and ₹ 325.97 crore respectively with a consequent reduction in profit after tax by the said amount.

5 The figures of the last quarter in each of the financial years are the balancing figures between audited figures in respect of the full financial year and the published year to date figures upto the end of the third quarter of the respective financial year.

6 The Board of Directors at their meeting held on March 28, 2022, accorded approval for adoption of Employee Stock Incentive Plan 2022 of the Bank (the Stock Incentive Plan 2022), which is in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Share Based Employee Benefits and Sweat Equity) Regulations, 2021. A maximum of 10 crore Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) may be offered at par under the Stock Incentive Plan 2022, which shall entitle the RSU holder 1 (one) fully paid-up equity share of face value of ₹ 1/- each against each RSU exercised, subject to approval of the shareholders of the Bank.

7 The Board of Directors at its meeting held on April 04, 2022, approved a composite Scheme of amalgamation (Scheme), for the amalgamation of: (i) HDFC Investments Limited and HDFC Holdings Limited, into and with Housing Development Finance Corporation Limited (HDFC Limited); and thereafter (ii) HDFC Limited into HDFC Bank Limited, and their respective shareholders and creditors, under Sections 230 to 232 of the Companies Act, 2013 and other applicable laws including the rules and regulations. The share exchange ratio shall be 42 equity shares of face value of ₹ 1/- each of the Bank for every 25 equity shares of face value of ₹ 2/- each of HDFC Limited. The Scheme is subject to the receipt of requisite approvals from statutory and regulatory authorities, and the respective shareholders and creditors, under applicable law.

As per the scheme, the appointed date for the amalgamation of HDFC Limited with and into the Bank shall be the effective date of the scheme. Upon the scheme becoming effective, the Bank will issue equity shares to the shareholders of HDFC Limited as on the record date. The equity shares held by HDFC Limited in the Bank will be extinguished as per the scheme.

8 During the quarter and year ended March 31, 2022, the Bank has allotted 31,41,500 and 3,27,64,494 equity shares respectively pursuant to the exercise of options under the approved employee stock option schemes.

9 During the year ended March 31, 2022, the Bank has raised Basel III compliant Additional Tier 1 (AT1) Notes of U.S.$ 1 billion (equivalent ₹ 7,423.75 crore) and Basel III compliant AT1 Bonds of ₹ 739.00 crore.

10 The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic had led to a nation-wide lockdown in April-May 2020. This was followed by localised lockdowns in areas with a significant number of COVID-19 cases. Following the easing of lockdown measures, there was an improvement in economic activity in the second half of fiscal 2021. Since then India experienced two waves of the COVID-19 pandemic following the discovery of mutant coronavirus variants, leading to the reimposition of regional lockdowns which were subsequently lifted.

The impact of COVID-19, including changes in customer behaviour and pandemic fears, as well as restrictions on business and individual activities, led to significant volatility in global and Indian financial markets and a significant decrease in global and local economic activities. The disruptions following the outbreak, impacted loan originations, the sale of third party products, the use of credit and debit cards by customers and the efficiency in collection efforts resulting in increase in customer defaults and consequent increase in provisions there against.

India is emerging from the COVID-19 pandemic. The extent to which any new wave of COVID-19 will impact the banks results will depend on ongoing as well as future developments, including, among other things, any new information concerning the severity of the COVID-19 pandemic, and any action to contain its spread or mitigate its impact whether government-mandated or elected by us.

3 The above financial results represent the consolidated financial results of HDFC Bank Limited and its subsidiaries constituting the Group. These financial results have been approved by the Board of Directors of the Bank at its meeting held on April 16, 2022. The financial results for the quarter and year ended March 31, 2022 have been subjected to an audit by the statutory auditors (M S K A & Associates, Chartered Accountants and M M Nissim & Co LLP, Chartered Accountants) of the Bank. The financial results for the quarter and year ended March 31, 2021 were audited by M S K A & Associates, Chartered Accountants.

4 The Group has applied its significant accounting policies in the preparation of the consolidated financial results consistent with those followed in the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2021 except for its stock based employee compensation plans. The RBI, vide its clarification dated August 30, 2021 on Guidelines on Compensation of Whole Time Directors / Chief Executive Officers / Material Risk Takers and Control Function Staff, advised Banks that the fair value of share-linked instruments on the date of grant should be recognised as an expense for all instruments granted after the accounting period ending March 31, 2021. Accordingly, the Group has changed its accounting policy from the intrinsic value method to the fair value method for all employee stock options granted after March 31, 2021. The fair value is estimated on the date of grant using Black-Scholes model and is recognised as compensation expense over the vesting period. As a result, Employees cost for the quarter and year ended March 31, 2022 is higher by ₹ 128.66 crore and ₹ 341.24 crore respectively with a consequent reduction in profit after tax by the said amount.

6 The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic had led to a nation-wide lockdown in April-May 2020. This was followed by localised lockdowns in areas with a significant number of COVID-19 cases. Following the easing of lockdown measures, there was an improvement in economic activity in the second half of fiscal 2021. Since then India experienced two waves of the COVID-19 pandemic following the discovery of mutant coronavirus variants, leading to the reimposition of regional lockdowns which were subsequently lifted.

India is emerging from the COVID-19 pandemic. The extent to which any new wave of COVID-19 will impact the Groups results will depend on ongoing as well as future developments, including, among other things, any new information concerning the severity of the COVID-19 pandemic, and any action to contain its spread or mitigate its impact whether government-mandated or elected by us.

7 In accordance with the RBI guidelines, banks are required to make consolidated Pillar 3 disclosures including leverage ratio, liquidity coverage ratio and Net Stable Funding Ratio (NSFR) under the Basel III Framework. These disclosures are available on the Banks website at the following link: https://www.hdfcbank.com/personal/resources/regulatory-disclosures. The disclosures have not been subjected to audit or review by the statutory auditors.
