Report on Review of Condensed Standalone Interim Financial Statements To the Board of Directors of IDFC FIRST Bank Limited
Introduction
We have reviewed the accompanying Condensed Standalone Balance Sheet of IDFC FIRST Bank Limited (the 'Bank') as of 31 December 2020 and the related Condensed Standalone Statement of Profit and Loss and the Condensed Standalone Cash Flow Statement for the nine month period then ended and other explanatory notes (hereinafter referred to as the 'Condensed Standalone Interim Financial Statements'). Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these Condensed Standalone Interim Financial Statements in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles laid down in Accounting Standard 25 'Interim Financial Reporting' ('AS 25'), prescribed under section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 (the 'Act'), the relevant provisions of the Banking Regulation Act, 1949, the circulars, guidelines and directions issued by the Reserve Bank of India (the 'RBI') from time to time (the 'RBI Guidelines') and other accounting principles generally accepted in India. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this Condensed Standalone Interim Financial Statements based on our review.
Scope of Review
We conducted our review in accordance with Standard on Review Engagements (SRE) 2410, "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity". A review of the Condensed Standalone Interim Financial Statements consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Basis for Qualified Conclusion
As further described in the explanatory Note 19 of the accompanying the Condensed Standalone Interim Financial Statements, the Honorable Supreme Court vide its order dated 23 March 2021 (the 'Order') has vacated the interim relief granted earlier which had directed that accounts which were not declared as non performing asset ('NPA') till 31 August 2020 shall not be declared as NPA till further orders. For the reasons explained in Note 19, the Bank has considered the aforesaid Order as a non adjusting subsequent event and accordingly has not given effect to the same in the Condensed Standalone Interim Financial Statements. We believe that as per Accounting Standard 4 – Contingencies and Events Occurring After the Balance Sheet Date, the Order, is an adjusting subsequent event. Had the Bank classified borrower accounts as NPA after 31 August 2020, the gross NPA and net NPA as at 31 December 2020 would have been 4.18% and 2.04% respectively (reported as proforma NPAs in Note 19) as compared to the reported gross NPA and net NPA of 1.33% and 0.33% respectively as at 31 December 2020. There would be no change in the reported net profit for the nine month period ended 31 December 2020 due to additional provisions established by the Bank on account of COVID-19 impacts (described in Note 19 to the Consolidated Standalone Interim Financial Statements).

Report on Review of Condensed Standalone Interim Financial Statements (Continued) IDFC FIRST Bank Limited
Qualified Conclusion
Based on our review, with the exception of the matter described in the Basis for Qualified Conclusion paragraph, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying Condensed Standalone Interim Financial Statements are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles laid down in AS 25 "Interim Financial Reporting", prescribed under section 133 of the Act, the relevant provisions of Banking Regulation Act, 1949, the RBI Guidelines and other accounting principles generally accepted in India. Attention is also drawn to the fact that the figures of corresponding nine month period ended 31 December 2019, as reported in these Condensed Standalone Interim Financial Statements have been approved by the Capital Raising Committee constituted by the Board of Directors of the Bank, but have not been subjected to review.
Emphasis of Matter
As described in Note 19 of the Condensed Standalone Interim Financial Statements, the Bank has recognized a 10 percent provision on loans for which moratorium was granted and asset classification benefit has been taken as at 31 December 2020 (days past due calculated considering the benefit of moratorium period) in accordance with the COVID-19 Regulatory Package announced by the RBI vide notifications dated 27 March 2020, 17 April 2020 and 23 May 2020. For the nine month period ended 31 December 2020, the Bank has made an additional COVID-19 related provision of Rs. 21,650,000 thousand, which is more than the provision prescribed by the RBI's notification dated 17 April 2020.
Further, the extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will have an impact on the Bank's financial performance is dependent on future developments, which are highly uncertain.
Our review report is not modified in respect of these matters.
