SECTION II - RISK FACTORS

An investment in Equity Shares involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider all the information contained in this Draft Letter of Offer, including the risks and uncertainties described below, before making an investment decision. If any of the following risks or any of the other risks and uncertainties discussed in this Draft Letter of Offer actually occur, our business, financial condition and results of operations could suffer, the price of our Equity Shares could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment. These risks and uncertainties are not the only issues that we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently believe to be immaterial may also have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

The financial and other related implications of risks concerned, wherever quantifiable, have been disclosed in the risk factors below. However, there are risk factors the potential effect of which are not quantifiable and therefore no quantification has been provided with respect to such risk factors. In making an investment decision, prospective investors must rely on their own examination of our Bank and the terms of the Issue, including the merits and risks involved.

Unless otherwise stated, our financial information used in this section is derived from our audited financial statements.

Internal Risk Factors

1. Our results of operations largely depend on our net interest income. Volatility in interest rates and other market conditions could adversely impact our business and results of operations.

Our results of operations largely depend on our net interest income. Net interest income constituted 72.74% and 70.70% of our total income for Fiscal 2011 and Fiscal 2012, respectively.

As of March 31, 2011 and March 31, 2012, of our interest-earning assets, 67.74% and 68.71% have floating interest rates, while all of our interest-bearing liabilities have fixed interest rates. Any decrease in the interest rates applicable to our assets, without a corresponding decrease in the interest rates applicable to our liabilities, will result in a decline in our net interest income and may consequently reduce our net interest margin (“NIM”).

In the event of rising interest rates, our borrowers may not be willing to pay correspondingly higher interest rates on their borrowings and may choose to repay their loans if they are able to switch to more competitively priced loans offered by other banks. Although we have been successful in passing on the increase in the interest rates linked to our interest bearing-liabilities to our borrowers, we cannot assure you that we will continue to pass such increase in our costs to our borrowers. Further, an increase in interest rates may also adversely affect the rate of growth of important sectors of the Indian economy such as the corporate, retail and agricultural sectors, which may adversely impact our business.

In the event of falling interest rates, we may face more challenges in retaining our customers if we are unable to offer competitive rates as compared to other banks in the market. Any inability to retain customers as a result of changing interest rates may adversely impact our earnings in future periods.

2. We face maturity mismatches between our assets and liabilities. If we fail to sustain or achieve growth of our deposit base, including our current and savings account deposit base, our business may be adversely affected.

We meet our funding requirements through short-term (i.e. maturity up to one year) and long-term (i.e., maturity for more than one year) deposits from retail depositors and mid-to-large corporate depositors. Banks usually face an asset-liability mismatch where, typically, the deposits are short-term and advances are long-term.

For Fiscal 2012, we have an asset liability mismatch. The bucket-wise negative mismatches are as:

Maturity period Mismatch to outflow (in %)(a)(b) 29 days to three months 12 Above six months to one year 2 One year to three years 18 (a) percentages are represented in negative.

9

(b) mismatch to outflow has been arrived at based on the formula: (assets – liabilities) x 100 liabilities

Further, such asset liability mismatch results in liquidity risk, i.e. risk originating due to the potential inability of a bank to generate cash. The liquidity risk in a bank arises on account of unanticipated withdrawals of deposits, non-renewal of deposits and delay in anticipated repayment of advances.

We have implemented an asset liability management committee (“ALCO”) to address the abovementioned risks. The ALCO regularly reviews the asset liability mismatch and takes appropriate steps to ensure that we are not exposed to liquidity risk either, in the short or long-term.

However, if the abovementioned risks materialise, we may face liquidity problem, resulting in an asset liability mismatch. As a result, we may be required to pay higher rates to attract deposits, which may have an adverse impact on our business and results of operations.

Any failure on our part to minimize the asset liability mismatch resulting in higher liquidity risk may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

3. Non-availability of funding and increase in funding costs could adversely affect our business and our financial condition. In case our depositors do not roll over term deposits or if we fail to increase our term deposits, our liquidity position may be adversely affected and we may be required to pay higher cost to attract and/or retain further deposits.

Currently our primary source of funding is deposits which include demand deposits, savings deposits and term deposits, long-term Tier II debt and inter-bank borrowings. As of March 31, 2011 and March 31, 2012, 91.54% and 91.12%, respectively, of our primary funding consisted of deposits.

The cost of funds is sensitive to interest rate fluctuations. The pricing on our issuances of debt will also be negatively impacted by any downgrade or potential downgrade in our credit ratings. In addition, attracting customer deposits in the Indian market is competitive. The rates that we must pay to attract deposits are determined by numerous factors such as the prevailing interest rate structure, competitive landscape, Indian monetary policy and inflation.

Our depositors may not roll over term deposits on maturity, which may force us to pay higher interest rates in order to attract and/or retain further deposits. If we fail to sustain or achieve the growth rate of our deposit base, including our current and savings account deposit base, our business, liquidity position and financial condition may be adversely affected.

4. We have regional concentration in southern India, especially Tamil Nadu. Any adverse change in the economic condition of Tamil Nadu and other states in southern India can impact our results of operations. Additionally, we may not be successful in expanding our operations to other parts of India.

As of June 30, 2012, out of our 303 branches, 266 branches were located in southern India (including 200 branches which were located in Tamil Nadu) constituting 87.79% of our total branch network. Our branches located in southern India received deposits of ` 14,323.96 crore as of March 31, 2012, including ` 11,718.99 crore received by branches located in Tamil Nadu, constituting 87.73% and 71.78%, respectively, of our total deposits as of March 31, 2012.

Our concentration in the southern India, and specifically in Tamil Nadu, exposes us to any adverse economic or political circumstances in that region as compared to other public and private sector banks that have more diversified national presence. Any disruption, disturbance or sustained downturn in the economy of Tamil Nadu and other states in southern India could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Additionally, while we continue to expand our operations outside of our traditional areas such as Tamil Nadu and other states in southern India, we face risks with our operations in geographic areas in which we do not possess the same level of familiarity with the economic condition, consumer base and commercial operations. In addition, our competitors may already have established operations in areas outside southern India and we may find it difficult to attract customers in such new areas. We may not be able to successfully manage the risks of such an expansion, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

10

5. We have received notices from the SEBI in the past. Any regulatory action resulting from such notices can adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operation.

We have received notices from SEBI in the past alleging violations of Merchant Banking Regulations and the erstwhile Securities and Exchange Board of India (Substantial Acquisition of Shares and Takeovers) Regulations, 1997 dated March 24, 1998 and March 12, 2004, respectively. Though we have filed our replies dated April 16, 1998 and April 15, 2004 in respect of these notices to SEBI, we have not received any further communication from SEBI in this regard. For further details, see section titled “Outstanding Litigations and Defaults” on page 86.

We cannot assure you that SEBI will not take any action under these notices. In the event of any regulatory action by SEBI, including imposition of penalty, our business, financial condition and results of operation may be adversely affected.

6. We are required to lend a minimum percentage of our adjusted net bank credit to certain ‘priority sectors’. A substantial portion of our NPAs are attributable to such ‘priority sectors’. Any adverse performance by such ‘priority sectors’ or any change in the RBI’s regulations relating to priority sector lending could have a material adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations.

In accordance with current RBI guidelines, all banks in India, including us, are subject to directed lending regulations. We are required to lend a minimum of 40% of our adjusted net bank credit to ‘priority sectors’. Our priority sectors advances include loans to agricultural, micro and small enterprises, education and housing sectors. Out of the advances we are required to lend under the ‘priority sector’, at least 18% of our adjusted net bank credit must be lent to the agricultural sector and at least 10% of adjusted net bank credit to weaker sections. Further 1 % of previous year’s adjusted net bank credit is required to be lent under the ‘Differential Rate of Interest Scheme’.

As of March 31, 2011 and March 31, 2012, our lending to ‘priority sectors’ constituted 49.49% and 47.09%, respectively, of our adjusted net bank credit, including 17.33% and 17.35%, respectively to the agricultural sector. As of March 31, 2011 and March 31, 2012, of our total NPAs 23.46% and 25.16%, respectively was towards agricultural sector which constituted 2.20% and 1.92%, of our total advances to the agricultural sector, for the said period.

Any adverse performance by the priority sectors could significantly increase our NPAs, which may materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. Further, any change in the RBI’s guidelines may require us to increase our lending to the priority sector, which may result in an increase in NPAs. Further, as per the budget for Fiscal 2013, the guidelines for priority sector lending shall be revised after consultation with stakeholders.

Further, we have experienced instances of shortfalls in our directed lending to priority sectors in the past. Any shortfall in the amount required to be provided to the relevant sectors must be deposited with Government- sponsored Indian development banks such as the National Bank for and Rural Development (“NABARD”). These deposits typically carry interest rates lower than market rates. We cannot assure you that we will be able to meet the lending targets towards priority sectors. In case we are unable to meet such targets, we may have to deposit the shortfall with any one of such agencies, resulting in reduced interest income on such advances.

7. The Indian banking industry is very competitive and our success will depend on our ability to compete effectively.

We face competition from public and private sector Indian commercial banks and foreign commercial banks in all our products and services. Some of such banks are large institutions and may have much larger customer and deposit bases, larger branch networks and wider capital base. Further, a few banks have recently experienced higher growth, achieved better profitability and increased their market shares relative to us. Further, we also face competition in some or all of our products and services from NBFCs, mutual funds and other entities operating in the financial sector.

Liberalisation of the Indian financial sector could also lead to a greater presence or new entries of Indian and foreign banks offering a wider range of products and services, which could adversely affect our competitive

11

environment. The Union budget for the financial year 2010 stated that the RBI is considering giving some additional banking licences to private sector companies, including to industrial houses and non-bank finance companies, if they meet the RBI’s eligibility criteria. Further, the Union budget for the financial year 2011 stated that amendments would be proposed to the Banking Regulation Act, for the purpose of creating additional licenses to private sector entities.

In order to respond to the competitive environment in our industry, we constantly look for opportunities to venture into areas ancillary to banking business. Currently, we provide services such as money transfer services, cross-selling of insurance products and sale of point of sale terminals pursuant to tie-ups with various independent third parties. While providing such services, we are required to enter into contractual arrangement with such third parties. Salient terms and conditions of such contractual arrangement, inter-alia, include providing indemnity to the other party, which can be invoked in cases such as breach of any condition, representation or warranty given by either party. Typically such indemnity clause operates in favour of us and the other party, however, in certain cases the obligation to indemnify is solely on us. In case we are required to indemnify the other party or are unable to collect under the indemnity we are owed, our business and financial condition may be adversely affected.

Our future success will depend in large part on our ability to respond in an effective and timely manner and our ability to compete effectively. Increased competitive pressure may have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

8. We may be unable to sustain the growth rate of our retail banking business, which could adversely impact our financial results.

As a part of our retail growth strategy, we have been expanding our presence through increase in our branch network to increase our current accounts and saving accounts deposits. Further, we have achieved significant growth in our retail advances and retail deposits in recent years. Our advances under retail banking business as of March 31, 2010, March 31, 2011 and March 31, 2012 were ` 4,998.13 crore, ` 5,775.10 crore and ` 7,534.60 crore, respectively with a CAGR of 34.02%. Further, our deposits under retail banking business as of March 31, 2010, March 31, 2011 and March 31, 2012 were ` 4,982.23 crore, ` 5,667.77 crore and ` 7,179.84 crore, respectively with a CAGR of 31.71%. The number of our branches has grown from 222 as of March 31, 2010 to 300 as of March 31, 2012.

We intend to continue our focus on further growth in retail banking business by offering new products and services and by cross-selling to our customers through marketing. While we anticipate continued demand in the retail banking business, growth of our retail portfolio is subject to various factors including geographic location of our proposed branches, availability of funding in such locations, competitiveness at such locations and approvals from RBI for opening certain branches. We cannot assure you that we will be able to grow at the rates we have experienced in the past, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

9. There is no assurance that our growth will continue at a similar rate that we have experienced in the recent past, or at all. Our failure to successfully execute our business and growth strategies and to manage such growth effectively may adversely affect our business growth and financial condition.

In the recent past, we have witnessed rapid growth in both our business and our branch network. For example, our deposits have increased from ` 10,285 crores as of March 31, 2010 to ` 12,914 crores as of March 31, 2011 to ` 16,341 crores as of March 31, 2012 and our advances have increased from ` 6,833 crores as of March 31, 2010 to ` 9,255 crores as of March 31, 2011 to ` 12,137 crores as of March 31, 2012. As of March 31, 2012 our deposits and advances were ` 16,341 crores and ` 12,137 crores, respectively. The number of our branches has grown from 222 as of March 31, 2010 to 300 as of March 31, 2012.

While we continue to develop and implement a number of growth initiatives, such as expansion of our branch network, to become more competitive, there can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully implement our business strategies in a timely manner or at all.

Our ability to sustain growth depends primarily upon our ability to manage key issues such as selecting and retaining skilled manpower, establishing additional branches, achieving cost efficiencies, maintaining a technology platform that can be continually upgraded, developing profitable products and services to cater to the needs of our existing and potential customers, improving our risk management systems to monitor our newer

12

business, developing a knowledge base to face emerging challenges and ensuring a high standard of customer service.

While we have experienced significant growth in the past which has contributed to our financial performance, there can be no assurance that we will continue to grow at similar rate or at all. Our ability to sustain and manage growth is also affected by macroeconomic factors affecting India, such as GDP growth, changes in implementation of macroeconomic policies, changes in demand for loans and changes in interest rates. We may not be able to successfully maintain growth rates due to unfavourable changes in any one or more of the aforementioned factors. Our inability to effectively manage any of these issues may adversely affect our business growth and, as a result, adversely impact our businesses, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

10. If we are unable to obtain, renew or maintain our statutory and regulatory permits and approvals required to operate our business, it may have a material and adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We require certain statutory and regulatory permits and approvals to operate our business.

As a part of our growth strategy, we plan opening new branches on a yearly basis. However, in the event we fail to obtain requisite approvals from the RBI for branches to be located in Tier I centres in a timely manner or at all, our growth may be adversely affected.

We have not obtained licenses under the relevant state legislations governing the registration of shops and establishments for our branches where specific exemption has not been granted to the scheduled commercial banks. In this regard, we have filed an application dated October 9, 2002, to the Labour Department, , for exemption from the applicability of the Shops & Establishments Act, 1947 in Tamil Nadu. Further, we have also submitted a letter dated June 18, 2012 to the RBI for taking up this matter with the Government of Tamil Nadu.

We cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain the exemption from the relevant state legislations governing the registration of shops and establishments in a timely manner or at all. In the event the authority does not grant an exemption to us, we will be required to obtain registration for our branches where such registration is required. Applying for such registration and complying with the necessary filing requirements will add further administrative cost on us, which may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operation.

Further, the competent authority under the relevant state legislations governing the registration of shops and establishments, may find us in violation of the such legislation and impose statutory penalty for not obtaining the registration, which may adversely affect our results of operations.

For details in relation to outstanding approvals, see the section titled “Government and Other Approvals” on page 91.

Further, under certain of our contractual arrangements we are required to hold all necessary and applicable approvals and licenses from authorities such as RBI and IRDA. In the event that such approvals and licenses lapse or are revoked by the granting authorities, we may not be able to provide such services which could have an adverse effect on our business and financial condition.

Failure by us to renew, maintain or obtain the required permits or approvals, including those set forth above, may result in the interruption of our operations or delay or prevent our expansion plans and may have a material and adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

11. Investment in partly paid-up Equity Shares in the Issue is exposed to certain risks.

The Issue Price is ` [●] per Equity Share. The Investors are required to pay [●]% of the Issue Price on Application and [●]% of the Issue Price on the Call. The partly paid-up Equity Shares offered under the Issue will be traded under separate ISIN for the period as may be applicable prior to the Call Record Date. An active trading may not develop for the partly paid-up Equity Shares and, therefore, the trading price of the partly paid- up Equity Shares may be subject to greater volatility than our fully-paid Equity Shares.

13

Further, with effect from the Call Record Date, trading in the partly paid-up Equity Shares for which the Call has been made will be suspended for such period as may be applicable under the applicable rules and regulations. The holders of the partly paid-up Equity Shares will not be able to trade in these shares from the Call Record Date till they are credited to the holders’ account as fully paid-up Equity Shares. Investors will be required to pay the money due on the Call, regardless of the market price of the Equity Shares. If the Investor fails to pay the balance amount, the Equity Shares in respect of which such Call has been given shall be forfeited, along with the Application Money already paid.

Additionally, pending conversion of partly paid-up Equity Shares into fully paid-up Equity Shares, Investors are only entitled to dividend and the voting rights in proportion to such Investors’ share of our paid-up equity capital.

Further, we have made an application dated July 16, 2012 to FIPB seeking its approval to Allot partly paid-up Equity Shares to Non-Resident Eligible Equity Shareholders and Renouncees (including FIIs and NRIs). Pursuant to the consolidated FDI policy (circular 1 of 2012) issued by Department of Industrial Policy & Promotion, partly paid-up shares can be allotted to residents outside India only upon receipt of approval of the FIPB. In the event we fail to receive such approval from FIPB, we may not be able to allot Equity Shares to Non-Resident Eligible Equity Shareholders and Renouncees.

12. We may fail to maintain the minimum capital adequacy requirements stipulated by the RBI which could materially and adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

We are subject to regulations relating to capital adequacy of banks, which determines the minimum amount of capital we must hold as a percentage of the risk-weighted assets on our portfolio, or capital-to-risk asset ratio (“CRAR”). Due to the capital charge for operational risk, there is an impact on the CRAR under the Basel II standards. Although we have been maintaining a CRAR under the Basel II standards, which was 12.57% as of March 31, 2012 as compared to the regulatory minimum requirement of 9.00%, there can be no assurance that we will be able to maintain our CRAR within the regulatory requirements. Further, any adverse developments could affect our ability to continue to satisfy the capital adequacy requirements, including deterioration in our asset quality, decline in the values of our investments or applicable risk weight for different asset classes.

The RBI has issued the guidelines on Basel III capital regulations on May 2, 2012, pursuant to the Monetary Policy Statement 2012-13. These guidelines would become effective from January 1, 2013 in a phased manner. The Basel III capital ratios will be fully implemented as on March 31, 2018. With the implementation of the Basel III guidelines, we may be required to improve the quality, quantity and transparency of Tier I capital, which will now have to be predominantly equity shares. We may be required to apply regulatory deductions against core capital as opposed to Tier I and Tier II capital and a minimum capital ratio may be set, among other suggested changes. In addition, these changes may result in the incurrence of substantial compliance and monitoring costs. Furthermore, with the implementation of Basel III guidelines, our ability to support and grow our business could be limited by a declining capital adequacy ratio, if we are unable to access or face difficulty in accessing the capital or have difficulty in obtaining capital in any other manner.

If we fail to meet capital adequacy requirements, the RBI may take certain actions, including restricting our lending and investment activities and the payment of dividends by us. These actions could materially and adversely affect our reputation, results of operations and financial condition.

13. We are required to maintain cash reserve ratio (“CRR”) and statutory liquidity ratio (“SLR”) and any increase in these requirements could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

As a result of the statutory reserve requirements stipulated by the RBI, we may be more exposed structurally to interest rate risk than banks in other countries. Under the RBI’s regulations, we are subject to a CRR requirement under which we are currently required to keep 4.75% of our net demand and time liabilities in current account with the RBI. We do not earn interest on cash reserves maintained with the RBI. The RBI may further increase the CRR requirement as a monetary policy measure and has done so on numerous occasions. Increases in the CRR requirement could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

In addition, under the RBI’s regulations, our liabilities are subject to a SLR requirement, according to which 24% of our net demand and time liabilities need to be invested in Government securities, state government

14

securities and other securities approved by the RBI from time to time. In our experience, these securities generally carry fixed coupons. When the interest rate rises, the value of these fixed coupon securities depreciates. We cannot assure you that investment in such securities will provide returns better than other market instruments. Further, any increase in the CRR and the SLR requirements, would reduce the amount of cash available for lending, which may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

14. Foreign investment in the Equity Shares, and acquisitions or transfers of our Equity Shares resulting in an aggregate holding of 5% or more are subject to limits specified by the RBI. Further, in relation to our foreign investment, we are required to comply with the various provisions of the Foreign Exchange management Act, 1999 (“FEMA”).

Under Indian laws, the aggregate permissible foreign investment, including FDI and investment by FIIs and NRIs in a private sector bank is limited to an aggregate of 49% of the paid up capital under the automatic route. Further, the aggregate FII’s and NRIs’ holding, cannot exceed 24% and 10%, respectively, of the paid up capital. However, with the approval of the board of directors and the shareholders by way of a special resolution, the aggregate FII and NRI holding in a bank can be increased up to 49% and 24%, respectively.

Pursuant to the guidelines issued by the RBI, any acquisition or transfer of shares in a private bank which will take the aggregate holding of an individual or a group to five per cent or more of the paid-up capital of a bank, requires the prior “acknowledgement” of the RBI. Further as advised by RBI, we had amended our Articles of Association to the effect that acquisition of shares by a person/group which would take his/its holding to five per cent or more of our total issued capital (or such other percentage as may be prescribed by the RBI from time to time) should be with the prior approval of the RBI.

Our foreign shareholding is restricted to 40% of our paid up capital, with the aggregate shareholding of NRIs not exceeding 24% and individual shareholding not exceeding 5%, of our paid up capital, pursuant to Board’s resolution dated April 28, 2012 and resolution passed by our shareholders through postal ballot declared on June 11, 2012. As of June 30, 2012, our aggregate foreign shareholding (including FII and NRI shareholding) was 30.75% of our paid up capital. Further, as of June 30, 2012, the aggregate shareholding of NRIs was 2.88% of our paid up capital.

In order to ensure that our foreign shareholding adheres to the abovementioned limits, Allotment to Non- Resident Investors (excluding Eligible Employees), up to their Rights Entitlement and for any additional Equity Shares shall be subject to such limits.

The aforementioned regulatory framework and restriction contained in our Articles of Association could adversely affect the liquidity, free transferability of the Equity Shares and in turn have an adverse affect on the price of the Equity Shares.

15. We are involved in certain material legal proceedings which if determined against us, could affect our business and financial condition.

We are party to several legal proceedings. These legal proceedings are in the nature of civil cases, debt recovery cases and tax cases pending at different levels of adjudication before various courts and tribunals.

Further, we have received a show cause notice dated August 4, 2011 from the Service Tax Commissioner, Trichy, raising a demand of `63.60 crores. Our Bank is in the process of compiling data to file the reply to the show cause notice. For further details regarding material legal proceedings, please see section titled “Outstanding Litigations and Defaults” on page 86.

No assurances can be given as to whether these proceedings will be settled in our favour or against us. If a claim is determined against us and we are required to pay all or a portion of the disputed amount, it could have an adverse effect on our results of operations and cash flows.

16. Banking is a heavily regulated industry and material changes in the regulations which govern us could cause our business to suffer and may adversely impact the price of the Equity Shares.

Banks in India are subject to detailed supervision and regulation by the RBI. In addition, banks are generally subject to changes in Indian law, as well as to changes in regulation and government policies and accounting

15

principles. Since 2005, the RBI has made several changes in regulations applicable to banking companies, including:

• risk-weights on certain categories of loans for computation of capital adequacy; • general provisioning requirements for various categories of assets; • capital requirements and accounting norms for securitisation; • policy interest rates, cash reserve ratio, cessation of payment of interest on cash reserve balances; • limits on investments in financial sector enterprises and venture capital funds; and • directed lending requirements.

The Banking Regulation Act imposes a number of restrictions, which affect our operating flexibility and investors’ rights, including:

• restrictions on payment of dividend; • No shareholder of our Bank can exercise voting rights on poll in excess of 10% of the total voting rights of all of our shareholders. • We are subject to restrictions relating to incorporation of subsidiaries, which may prevent us from exploiting emerging business opportunities in areas other than banking. We may not open new places of business and transfer our existing places of business, which may hamper our operational flexibility. Further, RBI has issued detailed guidelines on investment in subsidiaries and other companies, including:

- equity investment by a bank in a non-financial service company would be subject to a limit of 10% of the company’s paid-up capital or 10% of the bank’s paid-up capital and reserves, whichever is less; - equity investments in any non-financial services company held by a bank; its subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures or entities directly or indirectly controlled by the bank; and bank managed mutual funds should in aggregate, not exceed 20% of the investee company’s paid-up capital. - a bank’s equity investments in subsidiaries and other entities that are engaged in financial service activities together with equity investments in entities engaged in non financial service activities shall not exceed 20% of the bank’s paid-up share capital and reserves.

• Our ability to build overseas asset portfolios and exploit business opportunities overseas is limited by the requirement to maintain assets in India of at least 75% of our demand and time liabilities in India. • Our ability to produce documents and records for inspection is regulated. • The RBI is empowered to direct and generally advise us and may prohibit us from entering into certain transactions and agreements. • We are required to obtain prior approval of RBI before we appoint our Chairman, Managing Director and CEO and any other full-time Directors and fix their remuneration. The RBI has powers to remove managerial and other persons from office, and to appoint additional directors. We are also required to obtain approval of the RBI for the creation of floating charges for our borrowings, thereby hampering leverage.

Any changes in the regulatory environment, under which we operate, or our inability to comply with the regulations, could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

17. Any increase in our portfolio of Non-Performing Assets (“NPAs”) will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

As of March 31, 2011 and March 31, 2012, our gross NPAs were ` 112.48 crores and ` 123.54 crores, representing 1.21% and 1.01% of our gross advances, respectively.

For borrowings exceeding ` 0.25 crore, we categorise our borrowers into three categories, namely, high risk borrowers, moderate risk borrowers and low risk borrowers. As of March 31, 2012, 49.50% of our gross advances were to borrowers whom we did not rate as the loans availed by them are less than ` 0.25 crore. For the remaining 50.50% of our gross advances, 27.73% were towards low risk category, 21.09% were towards moderate risk category and 1.68% were towards high risk category.

16

Borrowers in the high risk category could be especially vulnerable if economic conditions worsen or economic growth is slow, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial conditions. Although our loan portfolio contains loans to a wide variety of businesses, adverse market conditions in these sectors could increase our level of NPAs. As of March 31, 2012, concentration of NPAs, as a percentage of our gross NPAs, was mostly in agricultural sector (25.16%), trading sector (15.54%) and services sector (12.42%).

Our ability to continue to reduce or contain the level of our NPAs may be affected by a number of factors that are beyond our control including, a sharp and sustained rise in interest rates, unemployment, slowdown in the Indian economy, movements in global commodity markets and exchange rates, global competition, adverse changes in government policies, laws or regulations and performance of various industry sectors including the ‘priority sectors’. In addition, the expansion of our business may also cause the level of our NPAs to increase. Although we constantly endeavour to improve our collections, we cannot assure you that we will be successful in our efforts or that the overall quality of our loan portfolio may not deteriorate in the future. If we are not able to control and reduce our NPAs, it could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

18. Our logo is not registered and we may be unable to effectively prohibit other persons from using our logo, which may adversely affect our goodwill and business. Further, any breach by us of third party intellectual property rights could divert management attention and require us to pay financial compensation to such third parties.

The trademarks used by us including our logo , are not registered. Unauthorized parties may attempt to use our logo and our other trademarks and applicable laws may not adequately protect our proprietary rights. Monitoring unauthorized use of our trademarks is difficult and costly, and we cannot be certain that the steps will be effective to prevent passing off and other unauthorized use of our trademark resulting in dilution of our goodwill. We may have to resort to litigation to enforce our proprietary rights, which could result in substantial costs and diversion of management attention and resources.

Further, we may become subject to claims by third parties if we use slogans, names, designs, or other such subjects in breach of any intellectual property rights registered by such third parties. Any legal proceedings pursuant to such claims, or settlements thereunder, may divert management attention and require us to pay financial compensation to such third parties, as well as compel us to change our marketing strategies or brand names of our products and services.

Any failure to enforce our proprietary rights could require us to make changes to our trademarks and our logo, which could have an adverse effect on our business, goodwill, financial condition and results of operations. Further, any legal proceedings pursuant to claims, or settlements thereunder, may require us to pay financial compensation thereby adversely affecting our goodwill and business.

19. If our risk management policies and procedures do not adequately address unidentified or unanticipated risks, our business could be adversely affected.

We have devoted significant resources to develop our risk management policies and procedures and aim to continue to do so in the future. We have set up a credit risk management committee (CRMC) for credit risk, operations risk management committee (ORCO) for operations risk and ALCO for market risk. These committees meet at regular intervals to discuss the various risks and identify and implement risk mitigation. These committees have senior management executives as members, with experience relevant to the respective functional areas. The Board has constituted a risk management committee (RMC) consisting of executive and non-executive Directors who oversee and guide the various risk management committees referred above. We have implemented the “International Convergence of Capital Measurement and Capital Standards” or the Basel II, as applicable to banks in India.

Despite this, our policies and procedures to identify, monitor and manage risks may not be fully effective. Some of our risk management systems are not automated and are subject to human error. Some of our methods of managing risk are based upon the use of observed historical market behavior. As a result, these methods may not accurately predict future risk exposures which could be significantly greater than indicated by historical measures.

17

Management of operations, legal and regulatory risk requires, among other things, policies and procedures to properly record and verify a large number of transactions and events, and these policies and procedures may not be fully effective. As we seek to expand the scope of our operations, we also face the risk of being unable to develop risk management policies and procedures that are properly designed for new business areas or to manage the risks associated with the growth of our existing businesses. Implementation and monitoring may prove particularly challenging with respect to businesses that we plan on developing. Inability to develop and implement effective risk management policies may adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

20. We are exposed to possible losses arising out of derivative transactions which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We undertake foreign exchange forward contracts for our customers and hedge them with other banks. We are also engaged in dealing with other banks on account of proprietary trading. As of March 31, 2011 and March 31, 2012, we had outstanding foreign exchange forward contacts aggregating to ` 3,356.24 crores and ` 8,283.19 crores, respectively. As of March 31, 2011, our outstanding foreign exchange forward contracts, on behalf of our clients and in our proprietary capacity, aggregated to ` 61.63 crores and ` 3,294.61 crores, respectively. As of March 31, 2012, our outstanding foreign exchange forward contracts, on behalf of our clients and in our proprietary capacity, aggregated to ` 278.04 crores and ` 8,005.15 crores, respectively.

Our derivative transactions are subject to regular monitoring by our risk assessment committee and to ensure compliance with limits prescribed by RBI. However, we cannot assure you that we will be able to anticipate the movement in foreign exchange or at all. Failure to anticipate the foreign exchange movement could cause us to incur losses in such derivatives or forward contracts, thereby adversely affecting our business and financial condition.

21. Our success depends, in large part, upon our management team and skilled personnel and our ability to attract and retain such persons. In the event we are not be able to attract talented employees, or are unable to motivate and retain our existing employees, the future of our business and operations may be affected.

As of June 30, 2012, we had 3,435 employees.

Since banking business is service oriented, our performance and success depends largely on our ability to nurture and retain the continued service of our management team and skilled personnel. We also face a continuing challenge to recruit a sufficient number of suitably skilled personnel, particularly as we continue to grow. There is significant competition for management and other skilled personnel in the banking industry.

In the event we are not be able to attract talented employees, or are unable to motivate and retain our existing employees, the future of our business and operations may be affected. Further, any employee unrest in the future could adversely affect our business and operations.

22. We are subject to annual financial inspection (“AFI”) by RBI. Non-compliance with RBI observations could adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.

We are subject to an AFI by RBI under the Banking Regulation Act. In the past certain observations were made by RBI during the AFI regarding our business and operations in its AFI reports. Inspection by the RBI is a regular exercise and is carried out periodically by the RBI for all banks and financial institutions.

While we attempt to be in compliance with all regulatory provisions applicable to us, in the event we are not able to comply with the observations made by the RBI, we may be subject to penalties by the RBI. Imposition of any penalty by RBI may have a material adverse effect on our reputation, financial condition and results of operations.

23. We are subject to various operational and other risks associated with the financial industry which, if materialised, may have an adverse impact on our business.

The proper functioning of our financial control, risk management, accounting or other data collection and processing systems, together with the communication networks connecting our various branches and offices is

18

critical to our operations and ability to compete effectively. We are exposed to many types of operational risk, including:

• fraud or other misconduct by employees or outsiders; • unauthorised transactions by employees and third parties (including violation of regulations for prevention of corrupt practices, and other regulations governing our business activities); • unauthorised use of debit cards at ATMs; • misreporting or non-reporting with respect to statutory, legal or regulatory reporting and disclosure obligations; • any breach of network security; and • operational errors, including clerical or record keeping errors or errors resulting from faulty computer or telecommunications systems.

In the past we have experienced fraud committed by our employees ranging from misuse of discretionary powers to misappropriation of funds. Though we have been able to recover the amounts involved in a majority of such cases, we cannot assure you that such cases will not happen or we will be able to recover such amount in the future. Further, we cannot assure you that any such incident will not have an adverse effect on our reputation.

In addition, we may also be exposed to other different types of risk during our operations, including but not limited to credit risk, counterparty risk, market risk, liquidity risk and operational risk.

Further, we outsource certain functions such as, money transfer, counter payments collection and tax collection, to other agencies and are exposed to the risk that external vendors or service providers may be unable to fulfill their contractual obligations to us (or will be subject to the same risk of fraud or operational errors by their respective employees) and to the risk that its (or its vendors’) business continuity and data security systems prove to be inadequate. Although we maintain a system of controls designed to keep operational risk at appropriate levels, there can be no assurance that we will not suffer losses from operational risks in the future which can have an adverse affect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and the price of the Equity Shares.

24. Due to the limited information regarding loan servicing histories of customers in India, we may be at a higher risk compared to banks with lending operations in more developed countries. We depend on the accuracy and completeness of information furnished by the customers and counterparties and any misrepresentation, errors or incompleteness of such information could cause our business to suffer.

Unlike several more developed economies, a nationwide credit bureau has become operational in India only recently, and therefore, adequate information regarding loan servicing histories, particularly in respect of individuals and small businesses, is limited. As a result, our credit risk exposure is higher compared to banks operating in more developed markets. Because our lending operations are primarily limited to India, we may be exposed to a greater potential for loss compared to banks with lending operations in more developed countries. For example, inadequate loan servicing histories are available for traders and farmers. We have extended 21.12% and 20.27% of our total advances to traders and 5.09% and 4.29% of our total advances to farmers as of March 31, 2011 and March 31, 2012, respectively. Inadequate loan servicing histories for traders and farmers increase the risk of exposure and may lead to an increase in our NPAs which may adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

In deciding whether to extend credit or enter into other transactions with customers and counterparties, we may rely on information furnished to us by or on behalf of our customers and counterparties, including financial statements and other financial information. We may also rely on certain representations as to the accuracy and completeness of that information and, with respect to financial statements, on reports of independent auditors. For example, in deciding whether to extend credit, we may assume that a customer’s audited financial statements conform to generally accepted accounting principles and present fairly, in all material respects, the financial condition, results of operation and cash flows of the customer.

The difficulties associated with the inability to accurately assess the value of collateral and to enforce rights in respect of collateral, along with the absence of such accurate statistical, corporate and financial information, may decrease the accuracy of our assessments of credit risk, thereby increasing the likelihood of borrower default on our loan and decreasing the likelihood that we would be able to enforce any security in respect of such a loan or that the relevant collateral will have a value commensurate to such a loan. Moreover, the

19

availability of accurate and comprehensive credit information on retail customers and small businesses in more limited than for larger corporate customers, which reduces our ability to accurately assess the credit risk associated with such lending.

Difficulties in assessing credit risks associated with our day-to-day lending operations may lead to an increase in the level of our non-performing and restructured assets, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

25. We may be unable to foreclose on collateral or there may be decreases in the value of collateral which, if a borrower defaults, may result in failure to recover the expected value of the collateral, exposing us to a potential loss.

As of March 31, 2011 and March 31, 2012, 96.89% and 96.81%, respectively, of our total advances were secured by charges on tangible assets, mortgages on immovable property and stocks. In certain cases, we obtain security by way of pledge of shares, assignment of life insurance policies and ‘kisan vikas patras’. Any decrease in the value of collateral at the time of recovery will have an adverse impact on the quantum of recovery.

In India, foreclosure on collateral generally requires a written petition to a court or tribunal. Although special tribunals have been set up for expeditious recovery of debts due to banks, any proceedings brought may be subject to delays and administrative requirements that may result, or be accompanied by, a decrease in the value of the collateral. The SARFAESI Act and the Debt Recovery Tribunal Act, 1993 have strengthened the ability of lenders to recover NPAs by granting them greater rights to enforce security and recover amounts owed from secured borrowers. However, there can be no assurance that this legislation will have a favourable impact on our efforts to recover NPAs as the full effect of such legislation is yet to be determined in practice. Any failure to recover the expected value of the collateral would expose us to a potential loss.

In addition, the RBI’s guidelines on corporate debt restructuring specify that for debt amounts of ` 10 crores and above, 60% of the creditors by number and 75% of creditors by value can decide to restructure the debt and that such a decision would be binding on the remaining creditors. If we own 25% or less of the debt of a borrower, we could be forced to agree to an extended restructuring of debt which may not act in our interests.

As a result of the foregoing factors, realisation of the full value of collateral may become difficult, which could have an adverse effect on our business and financial condition.

26. A portion of our advances are unsecured. In case we are unable to recover such advances in a timely manner or at all, it may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

As of March 31, 2011 and March 31, 2012, 3.11% and 3.19%, respectively, of our total advances were unsecured.

While we have been selective in our lending policies and strive to satisfy ourselves with the credit worthiness and repayment capacities of our customers, there can be no assurance that we will be able to recover the interest and the principal advanced by us in a timely manner or at all. Any failure to recover the unsecured advances given to our customers would expose us to a potential loss which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

27. Certain of our branches are located on premises that have been taken on lease. Further, some of the agreements we enter into for the said leases are inadequately stamped and not registered. The termination of any of these leases or our inability to exercise our rights under the lease agreements may cause disruption in our operations.

As of June 30, 2012, out of a total of our 303 branches, 291 branches are located at premises taken on a lease basis. Such leases are typically for a period of five to ten years. Although we have renewed majority of our leases in the past, our business, financial condition, and operating results could be adversely affected if we are unable to negotiate favorable lease and renewal terms for our existing branches. For example, as of June 30, 2012, the leases for five of our branches have expired and are pending renewal. In case of non-renewal of leases for our existing branches, we will be forced to procure alternative space for our existing branches. Although we procure space that satisfy the safety, operational and financial criteria for our branches, we cannot assure you that we will be able to identify such space at commercially reasonable terms or at all. Failure to identify such space can adversely affect our financial condition and results of operation.

20

Further, any breach of the terms and conditions of these lease agreements, could result in the termination of the lease agreements and force us to establish operations at another location, which may disrupt our operations temporarily.

Additionally, some of our lease agreements may not be adequately stamped and some of our immoveable properties for our offices, which are taken on lease, may have one or more irregularities of title such as inadequate stamping and/ or non registration of lease agreements and non execution of such lease agreements. Any such irregularity may result in our inability to enforce our rights under such lease agreements which may disrupt our operations and adversely affect our business, financial condition and result of operations.

28. As of March 31, 2012, our contingent liabilities amounted to ` 9,701.70 crores. If any of our contingent liabilities materialise our liquidity, business, prospects, financial conditions and results of operations could be adversely affected.

The contingent liabilities as of March 31, 2012 are as follows:

Contingent Liabilities Amount (in ` Crores.)

Claims against us not acknowledged as debts 1.36 Liability on account of outstanding Forward Exchange Contracts 8,283.19 Guarantees given on behalf of constituents -in India 797.72 -outside India 9.43 Acceptances, endorsements and other obligations 610.00 Total 9,701.70

The contingent liabilities have arisen in the normal course of our business and are subject to the prudential norms as prescribed by RBI. If any of the contingent liabilities specified above materialises, our liquidity, business prospects, financial conditions and results of operations could be adversely affected.

29. Our ability to pay dividends in the future will depend upon our future earnings, financial condition, cash flows, working capital requirements, capital expenditures and restrictive covenants in our financing arrangements. Further, there are regulatory restrictions on payment of dividend under the RBI guidelines.

Our future ability to pay dividends will depend on our earnings, financial condition and capital requirements. Dividends distributed by us will attract dividend distribution tax at rates applicable from time to time. We cannot assure you that we will generate sufficient income to cover our operating expenses and pay dividends to our shareholders. Our ability to pay dividends could also be restricted under certain financing arrangements that we may enter into in the future.

Further, we cannot pay any dividend on the Equity Shares until all our capitalised expenses have been completely written off. Payment of dividend is further governed by the RBI guidelines, which imposes certain additional requirements.

If we were to raise Tier II capital in the future, the payment of any dividends would be after payment of interest on such capital. In addition, dividends that we have paid in the past may not be reflective of the dividends that we may pay in a future period. The amount of our future dividend payments, if any, will depend upon our future earnings, financial condition, cash flows, working capital requirements, terms and conditions of our indebtedness, capital expenditures and regulation. There can be no assurance that we will be able to pay dividends.

30. Our insurance coverage could prove inadequate to satisfy potential claims. If we were to incur a serious uninsured loss or a loss that significantly exceeds the limits of our insurance policies, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We have taken out insurance within a range of coverage consistent with industry practice in India to cover certain risks associated with our business, including money and securities in safe or transit, goods held in trust/ commission, coins/ currency and buildings. We cannot assure you that our current insurance policies will insure us fully against all risks and losses that may arise in the future. In addition, even if such losses are insured, we

21

may be required to pay a significant deductible on any claim for recovery of such a loss, or the amount of the loss may exceed our coverage for the loss. In addition, our insurance policies are subject to annual review, and we cannot assure you that we will be able to renew these policies on similar or otherwise acceptable terms, if at all. If we were to incur a serious uninsured loss or a loss that significantly exceed the limits of our insurance policies, it could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.

31. We require approval from the RBI for opening new branches in Tier I centres. In case we do not obtain such approvals, we may be unable to grow our deposit base which may in turn adversely affect our business prospects.

The opening of new branches and shifting of existing branches of banks is governed by the provisions of the Banking Regulation Act. Domestic scheduled commercial banks are permitted to open branches in Tier 2 to Tier 6 centres, without permission from Reserve Bank of India, subject to reporting requirements to RBI. However, opening of branches by domestic scheduled commercial banks in Tier 1 centres (centres with population of 1,00,000 and above as per Census 2001) require prior permission of the RBI, except in certain cases.

As of June 30, 2012, we have 151 branches in Tier I centres and 81 branches in Tier II and Tier III centres. Deposits maintained at Tier I centres constitute 79.67% of our total deposits.

Our ability to raise fresh deposits and grow our deposit base from Tier 1 centres depends in part on our ability to expand our network of branches. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain the RBI’s authorisations to meet our requirements for branch expansion to achieve the desired growth in our deposit base as a result of which our business prospects.

32. Part of our investment portfolio is exposed to risks relating to mark-to-market valuation.

As of March 31, 2012 our investment portfolio comprising of securities under the available for sale category and held for trading category constitutes ` 609.17 crores. In the event of a rise in interest rates or adverse market conditions, our investment portfolio comprising of securities under the aforesaid categories will be exposed to the adverse impact of the mark-to-market valuation. Any rise in interest rates or adverse market condition leading to a fall in the market value of such investments may adversely affect our profitability and financial condition.

33. We have concentrations of loans to and deposits from certain customers, which exposes us to risk of credit losses and premature withdrawal of deposits from these customers that could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our advances to the twenty largest borrowers, accounted for approximately 8.86% and 8.04% of our total advances as of March 31, 2011 and March 31, 2012, respectively. We cannot assure you that there will not be any credit losses or delay in payments of interest and/or principal from these borrowers.

Further, our deposits from the twenty largest depositors, accounted for approximately 16.68% and 12.96% of our total deposits as of March 31, 2011 and March 31, 2012, respectively. We cannot assure you that there will not be any premature withdrawal or non-renewal of deposits from these depositors.

In the event any of the above risk materialises, our business, results of operations and financial conditions may be adversely affected.

34. Deterioration in the performance of any of the industry sectors where we have significant exposure may adversely impact our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our credit exposure to corporate borrowers is dispersed across various industry sectors, the most significant of which are cotton textile, iron and and construction (commercial real estate) which represented 6.18%, 7.14% and 4.67%, respectively, of our outstanding fund and non-fund based balances as of March 31, 2012. Further, it has been our policy to diversify the exposure over different industry sectors. We have fixed exposure norms (sectoral cap) for major industry sectors. For example, our internal policies set out limit of our credit exposure to any particular industry depending upon the nature of that industry.

Any significant deterioration in the performance of the industry sector we lend to (including ‘priority sectors’), driven by events not within our control, such as regulatory action or policy announcements by Government or

22

State government authorities, would adversely impact the ability of borrowers in that industry sector to service their debt obligations.

We cannot assure you that we will be able to diversify our exposure over different industry sectors in the future. Failure to maintain diverse exposure resulting in industry sector concentration may adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operation, in case of any significant deterioration in performance of such industry sector.

35. Weaknesses, disruption or failures in IT systems could adversely impact our business.

Our principal delivery channels include our branches and ATMs, particularly those utilized for our retail products and services and transaction banking. The increasing size of our operations, which use automated control and recording systems for record keeping, exposes us to the risk of errors in control and record keeping. Given our high volume of transactions, certain errors may be repeated or compounded before they are discovered and successfully rectified. Our dependence upon automated IT systems to record and process transactions may further increase the risk that technical system flaws will result in losses that are difficult to detect. As a result, we face the risk that the design of our controls and procedures may prove inadequate thereby causing delays in detection or errors in information.

We may also be subject to disruptions of our IT systems, arising from events that are wholly or partially beyond our control (including, for example, computer viruses or electrical or telecommunication outages), which may give rise to deterioration in customer service and to loss or liability to us. A partial or complete failure of any of our primary systems or communication networks could still materially and adversely affect our decision-making process, risk management or internal controls as well as timely response to market conditions.

36. We may seek growth opportunities through acquisitions or be required to undertake mergers on the recommendation of the RBI, which exposes us to integration and other acquisition risks.

We may seek growth opportunities through acquisitions or be required to undertake mergers recommended by the RBI. In the past, RBI has ordered mergers of weak banks with other banks primarily in the interest of depositors of the weak banks.

Any future acquisition or merger is subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which are beyond our control, including:

• difficulties in operating the integrated information technology system, electronic banking system, risk management and other systems; • challenges in harmonising the two or more corporate cultures; • difficulties in maintaining asset quality; • difficulties in leveraging synergies and rationalising operations; • difficulties in retaining and attracting customers and employees; • difficulties in developing new skills required for new business and markets; and • diversion of management’s attention required to integrate the two businesses following the acquisition or merger, one or more of which could have an adverse effect on our business.

In addition to the above risks, we cannot assure you that such merger will be in our interest or will positively impact our growth and performance. Any negative impact of a merger can adversely affect our business, results of operation, financial condition and the price our Equity Shares.

We cannot assure you that RBI will not recommend to us to undertake mergers in the future, which may have an adverse affect on our business and financial condition.

37. We have issued Equity Shares during the last one year at a price that may be below the Issue Price.

In the last one year, we have issued the following Equity Shares at a price that may be lower than the Issue Price:

S. No. Date of allotment Number of Equity Issue Price Reasons for allotment Shares (`) 1. June 24, 2011 16,83,646 11.60 Pursuant to exercise of

23

2. November 5, 2011 6,40,746 11.60 options granted under CUB 3. March 21, 2012 8,51,254 11.60 ESOS Scheme 6,000 32.00 Total 31,81,646

The price at which the Equity Shares have been issued in the last one year is not indicative of the price at which Equity Shares may be offered in the Issue or at the price at which they will trade upon listing.

38. Renunciation among Non Resident and resident Investors is subject to obtaining the necessary approvals, including approval from RBI. Further, Eligible Employees are not entitled to renounce their right to participate in the Issue in favour of third parties.

Any renunciation (i) from a resident Eligible Equity Shareholder to a Non Resident, or (ii) from a Non Resident Eligible Equity Shareholder to a resident, or (iii) from a Non Resident Eligible Equity Shareholder to a Non Resident is subject to obtaining the necessary approvals, including from RBI under the FEMA and such permissions should be attached to the CAF. For further details, see the section titled “Terms of the Issue – Renunciation” on page 107. In the event such Eligible Equity Shareholders fail to obtain the requisite permission and such is not attached to the CAF, their Application will be rejected.

Further, participation by Eligible Employees under the Employee Reservation Portion is subject to certain procedural restrictions. For instance, Eligible Employees can neither renounce their right to participate in the Issue in favour of third parties nor apply in the Issue through plain paper application. For further details, see the section titled “Terms of the Issue” on page 100. In the event an Eligible Employee renounces his right to participate in the Issue or applies in the Issue through plain paper application, applications by such Eligible Employees and person in whose favour such Eligible Employee has renounced his right to participate in the Issue are liable to be rejected.

39. The Equity Shares Allotted pursuant to the Issue will be listed on the NSE, the BSE and the MSE and you will not be able to sell immediately on the NSE, the BSE and the MSE any of the Equity Shares Allotted.

Our Equity Shares are currently listed and traded on the NSE, the BSE and the MSE and the Equity Shares offered pursuant to the Issue will be listed and traded on NSE, the BSE and the MSE. Listing and trading of Equity Shares to be Allotted are subject to the receipt of final approval from the Stock Exchanges. We cannot assure that the Equity Shares will be credited to investors’ demat accounts, or that trading in the Equity Shares will commence, within the time periods specified in this Draft Letter of Offer. Any failure or delay in listing the Equity Shares on NSE, the BSE and the MSE would restrict investors’ ability to dispose of their Equity Shares.

40. Future issuances or sale of the Equity Shares could significantly affect the price of the Equity Shares.

The future issuance of Equity Shares by us, including through a preferential allotment to certain investors or pursuant to the CUB ESOS Scheme, or the disposal of Equity Shares by any of our major shareholders, or the perception that such issuance or sales may occur may significantly affect the price of the Equity Shares. In the event of issue of additional Equity Shares in any of the modes stated above or otherwise, existing shareholders, including investors participating in the Issue, may experience dilution and the price of the Equity Shares may decline. Further, any sale of a significant number of the Equity Shares can adversely impact the price of the Equity Shares and as a result, the value of your investment may decline.

There can be no assurance that we will not issue Equity Shares or that our shareholders will not dispose of the Equity Shares.

For further information with respect to our shareholders and their shareholding, including the CUB ESOS Scheme, see the section “Capital Structure” on page 36.

External Risk Factors

41. The market value of an investor’s investment may fluctuate due to the volatility of the Indian securities markets.

24

The Indian securities markets are smaller and may be more volatile than the securities markets in other more developed jurisdictions. The Stock Exchanges have, in the past, experienced substantial fluctuations in the prices of listed securities. The stock exchanges in India, in line with global developments, have witnessed substantial volatility in the recent past. In addition, the governing bodies of the Stock Exchanges have from time to time imposed restrictions on trading in certain securities, limitations on price movements and margin requirements. Furthermore, from time to time, disputes have occurred between listed companies, the Stock Exchanges and other regulatory bodies, which in some cases may have had a negative effect on market sentiment.

42. We are exposed to fluctuation in foreign exchange rates.

As a bank, we are exposed to exchange rate risk. We comply with regulatory limits on our unhedged foreign currency exposure. However, we are exposed to fluctuation in foreign currency rates for our unhedged exposure. Adverse movements in foreign exchange rates may also impact our borrowers negatively which may in turn impact the quality of our exposure towards these borrowers. Volatility in foreign exchange rates could adversely affect our business, financial conditions and results of operation.

43. Any trading closures at the Stock Exchanges may adversely affect the price of the Equity Shares.

The Stock Exchanges have in the past experienced problems, including temporary exchange closures, broker defaults, settlements delays and strikes by brokerage firm employees, which, if continuing or recurring, could affect the market price and liquidity of the securities of Indian companies, including the Equity Shares. A closure of, or trading stoppage on the Stock Exchanges could adversely affect the price of the Equity Shares.

44. There are restrictions on daily movements in the price of the Equity Shares, which may adversely affect a shareholder's ability to sell, or the price at which it can sell Equity Shares at a particular point in time.

We are subject to a daily “circuit breaker” imposed by Stock Exchanges, which does not allow transactions beyond specified increases or decreases in the price of the Equity Shares. This circuit breaker operates independently of the index-based market-wide circuit breakers generally imposed by the SEBI on Indian stock exchanges. The maximum movement allowed in the price of the Equity Shares before the circuit breaker is triggered is determined by the Stock Exchanges based on the historical volatility in the price and trading volume of the Equity Shares. The Stock Exchanges will not inform us of the triggering point of the circuit breaker in effect from time to time, and may change it without our knowledge. This circuit breaker will limit the upward and downward movements in the price of the Equity Shares. As a result of this circuit breaker, no assurance may be given regarding your ability to sell your Equity Shares or the price at which you may be able to sell your Equity Shares at any particular time.

45. The growth of the Indian banking industry may not be sustainable.

The Indian banking industry has experienced substantial growth, consistent with the economic development of India. We expect the banking industry in India to expand as a result of continued growth in the Indian economy and increase in household income, among other factors. However, since the second half of 2008, global markets have experienced tremendous volatility as a result of the turmoil originating from the United States sub-prime mortgage crisis, which has brought about a global economic downturn, and concerns over sovereign debt, particularly in Europe, which have impeded a global recovery. Following the global financial crisis, the Indian economy witnessed growth of 6.5% for the financial year 2012. The baseline projection of GDP growth for the financial year 2013 has been projected at 7.3%. (Source: RBI Monetary Policy Statement 2012-13). Although India’s economic growth has moderated and there are downside risks globally and, in India, weak industrial growth, slowdown in investment activity and deceleration in the resource flow to the commercial sector, the RBI anticipates a modest recovery in Fiscal 2013. (Sources: RBI, Third Quarter Review of Monetary Policy 2011-12). It is uncertain whether the Indian economy and the banking industry can return to previous levels of growth. Consequently, we cannot assure you that the growth and development of the Indian banking industry will be sustainable. If the rate of growth of the Indian banking industry slows down, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.

46. Our business is substantially affected by prevailing economic conditions in India.

We are incorporated in India, and the majority of our assets and employees are located in India. As a result, we are highly dependent on prevailing economic conditions in India and our results of operations are significantly

25

affected by factors influencing the Indian economy. Factors that may adversely affect the Indian economy, and hence our results of operations, may include:

• any increase in Indian interest rates or inflation; • any scarcity of credit or other financing in India, resulting in an adverse impact on economic conditions in India; • prevailing income conditions among Indian consumers and Indian corporations; • volatility in, and actual or perceived trends in trading activity on the Stock Exchanges; • changes in India’s tax, trade, fiscal or monetary policies; • political instability, terrorism or military conflict in India or in countries in the region or globally, including in India’s various neighbouring countries; • prevailing regional or global economic conditions, including in India’s principal export markets; and • other significant regulatory or economic developments in or affecting India or its entertainment industry.

Any slowdown or perceived slowdown in the Indian economy, or in specific sectors of the Indian economy, could adversely impact our business and financial condition and the price of the Equity Shares.

47. could have an adverse impact on our business.

The Indian economy has recently experienced high levels of inflation. According to the Monthly Economic Report for May 2012 prepared by the Department of Economic Affairs, Ministry of Finance, GoI, (“DEA”) the year-on-year inflation in terms of the Wholesale Price Index (“WPI”) was 7.55% for the month of January 2012 as compared to 9.56% in the corresponding month last year. The RBI’s Monetary Policy Statement 2011-12 stated that headline and core inflation had exceeded recent expectations and predicted that high inflation would persist and may get worse. Over the long run, high inflation is inimical to sustained growth as it harms investment by creating uncertainty, according to the RBI.

In its Third Quarter Review of Monetary Policy 2011-12 dated January 24, 2012, the RBI decided against reducing the repo rate in order to avoid an imminent risk of resurgent inflation, and observed that headline WPI had moderated owing largely to a sharp deceleration in prices of seasonal food items. As per the RBI’s Mid- Quarter Monetary Policy Review: June 2012, the RBI recognized headline WPI inflation rate moderated from a peak of 10.00% in September 2011 to 7.70% in March 2012. In the event of a sustained high rate of inflation, our costs, such as operating expenses, may increase, which could have an adverse effect on our results of operations.

48. Natural disasters and other disruptions could adversely affect the Indian economy and could cause our business and operations to suffer and the price of our Equity Shares to decrease.

Our operations, including our branch network, may be damaged or disrupted as a result of natural disasters such as earthquakes, floods, heavy rainfall, epidemics, tsunamis and cyclones and other events such as protests, riots and labour unrest. Such events may lead to the disruption of information systems and telecommunication services for sustained periods. They also may make it difficult or impossible for employees to reach our business locations. Damage or destruction that interrupts our provision of services could adversely affect our reputation, our relationships with our customers, our senior management’s ability to administer and supervise our business or it may cause us to incur substantial additional expenditure to repair or replace damaged equipment or rebuild parts of our branch network. We may also be liable to our customers for disruption in services resulting from such damage or destruction. Our insurance coverage for such liability may not be sufficient. Any of the above factors may adversely affect our business and financial results, the quality of our customer service and the price of our Equity Shares.

49. Continuing high prices of crude oil could adversely affect the Indian economy, which could adversely affect our business.

India imports a substantial portion of its crude oil requirement. While oil prices have declined sharply from their peak levels, any sharp increases or volatility in oil prices and the pass-through of such increases to Indian consumers could have a material negative impact on the Indian economy and the Indian banking and financial system in particular, including through a rise in inflation and market interest rates and a higher trade deficit. Continued high oil prices or further increases in oil prices could affect the Indian economy and the Indian banking and financial system. This could adversely affect our liquidity and business, including our ability to

26

grow, the quality of our assets, our financial condition and the price of the Equity Shares.

50. A significant change in the Government’s economic liberalization and deregulation policies could disrupt our business.

We are incorporated in India and derive our revenues in India with substantially all of our assets located in India. Most of our customers are also located in India. The Government has traditionally exercised and continues to exercise a dominant influence over many aspects of the economy. Its economic policies have had and could continue to have a significant effect on public sector entities, including us. Our business and the market price and liquidity of our Equity Shares may be affected by interest rates, changes in Government policy, taxation, social and civil unrest and political, economic or other developments in or affecting India. Since 1991, successive governments have pursued policies of economic and financial sector liberalisation and deregulation. The current Government, which came to power in May 2009, has announced policies and taken initiatives that support the economic liberalisation program pursued by previous governments. The policies of the new Government may change the rate of economic liberalisation, specific laws and policies affecting banks and financial institutions, foreign investment and other matters affecting investment in the Equity Shares. While the Government is expected to continue the liberalisation of India’s economic and financial sectors and deregulation policies, we cannot assure you that such policies will be continued. A significant change in the Government’s policies in the future, in particular, those relating to the financial services industry in India, could affect business and economic conditions in India, and could also adversely affect our financial condition and results of operation.

51. Financial instability in other countries could disrupt our business and cause the price of our Equity Shares to decrease.

The Indian market and the Indian economy are, to a certain extent, influenced by economic and market conditions in other countries, particularly market conditions in the United States and Europe. Although, financial turmoil elsewhere in the world in past years has had limited impact on the Indian economy, investors should be aware that there is a recent history of financial crises and boom-bust cycles in multiple markets in both the emerging and developed economies which leads to risks for all financial institutions, including us. Although economic conditions are different in each country, investors’ reactions to developments in one country can have adverse effects on the securities of companies in other countries, including India. A loss of investor confidence in the financial systems of India or other markets may cause volatility in the Indian financial markets and indirectly, in the Indian economy in general. This could negatively impact the Indian economy, including the movement of exchange rates, interest rates and flow of funds in India. Any significant financial disruption could have an adverse effect on our business, future financial condition and the price of our Equity Shares. Although the recent financial crisis has had a limited direct impact on us, we remain subject to the risks posed by the indirect impact of the global credit crisis on the economy, some of which cannot be anticipated and the vast majority of which are not in our control. We also remain subject to counterparty risk to financial institutions that fail or are otherwise unable to meet their obligations to us.

52. Companies operating in India are subject to a variety of central and state government taxes and surcharges.

Tax and other levies imposed by the central and state governments in India that affect our tax liability include central and state taxes and other levies, income tax, value added tax, turnover tax, service tax, stamp duty, tax on dividends and other special taxes and surcharges which are introduced on a temporary or permanent basis from time to time. Moreover, the central and state tax scheme in India is extensive and subject to change from time to time. The statutory corporate income tax in India, which includes a surcharge on the tax and an education cess on the tax and the surcharge, is currently 32.45%. The central or state government may in the future increase the corporate income tax it imposes. Any such future increases or amendments may affect the overall tax efficiency of companies operating in India and may result in significant additional taxes becoming payable. Additional tax exposure could adversely affect our business and results of operation.

Our existing Equity Shares are currently traded on the BSE (scrip code 532210), NSE (scrip code CUB) and MSE (scrip code CUB) under the ISIN INE491A01021. In addition to the ISIN for the existing Equity Shares, our Bank shall obtain separate ISIN for the partly paid-up Equity Shares. The partly paid-up Equity Shares offered pursuant to the Issue shall be listed and traded under a separate ISIN for the period prior to the record dates for the Call. On the record date for the Call, the trading of the partly paid-up Equity Shares shall be terminated. The process of corporate action for crediting the fully paid-up Equity Shares to the Investors demat accounts may take about two weeks from the last date of payment of money under the notice for the Call. On payment of the Call Money, the partly paid-up Equity Shares shall be converted into fully paid-up Equity Shares and will trade under the ISIN for the existing Equity Shares. The Equity Shares, in respect of which the balance amount payable remains unpaid may be forfeited, along with the Application Money already paid, at any time after the due date for payment of the balance amount due, with prior notice of at least 14 days, as provided under the Articles of Association.

All steps for the completion of the necessary formalities for listing and commencement of trading of the Equity Shares allotted pursuant to the Issue shall be taken within seven days from date of finalisation of the basis of Allotment. Our Bank has made applications to the BSE, NSE and MSE seeking “in-principle” approval for the listing of the Equity Shares issued pursuant to the Issue in accordance with Clause 24(a) of the Listing Agreement pursuant to letters dated [●], [●] and [●], respectively. Our Bank will also apply to the Stock Exchanges for final approval for the listing and trading of the Equity Shares. No assurance can be given regarding the active or sustained trading in the Equity Shares or that the price at which the Equity Shares offered under the Issue will trade after listing on the Stock Exchange.

If permissions to list, deal in and for an official quotation of the Equity Shares are not granted by any of the Stock Exchanges, our Bank will forthwith repay, without interest, all moneys received from the applicants in pursuance of the Letter of Offer. If such money is not repaid within eight days after our Bank becomes liable to repay it, i.e., the date of refusal of an application for such a permission from a Stock Exchange, or on expiry of 15 days from the Issue Closing Date in case no permission is granted, whichever is earlier, then our Bank and every Director who is an officer in default shall, on and from such expiry of eight days, be liable to repay the money, with interest as per applicable law.

A person, being a nominee, becoming entitled to the Equity Shares by reason of the death of the original equity shareholder(s), shall be entitled to the same advantages to which he would be entitled if he were the registered holder of the Equity Shares. Where the nominee is a minor, the applicant (s) may also make a nomination to appoint, in the prescribed manner, any person to become entitled to the Equity Share(s), in the event of death of the said holder, during the minority of the nominee.

The applicant can make the nomination by filling in the relevant portion of the Application Form.

Only one nomination would be applicable for one folio. Hence, in case the Eligible Equity Shareholder has already registered the nomination with our Bank, no further nomination needs to be made for Equity Shares to be allotted in the Issue under the same folio. However, new nominations, if any, by the Eligible Equity Shareholder(s) shall operate in supersession of the previous nomination, if any.

In case the Allotment of Equity Shares is in dematerialised form, there is no need to make a separate nomination for the Equity Shares to be allotted in the Issue.

Option to receive Equity Shares in Dematerialized Form

Except for ASBA Investors, Investors to the Issue shall be Allotted Equity Shares in dematerialised (electronic) form at the option of the Investor. Our Bank, along with Karvy Computershare Private Limited, has signed tripartite agreements dated May 13, 2011 with each NSDL and CDSL, which enables the Investors to hold and trade in securities in a dematerialised form, instead of holding the securities in the form of physical certificates.

In the Issue, the allottees who have opted for Equity Shares in dematerialised form will receive their Equity Shares in the form of an electronic credit to their beneficiary account with a DP. Investor will have to give the relevant particulars for this purpose in the appropriate place in the Application Form. Applications, which do not accurately contain this information, will be given the securities in physical form. No separate applications for securities in physical and/ or dematerialized form should be made. If such applications are made, the application for physical securities will be treated as multiple applications and is liable to be rejected. In case of partial allotment, allotment will be done in demat option for the shares sought in demat and balance, if any, may be allotted in physical shares.

INVESTORS MAY PLEASE NOTE THAT THE EQUITY SHARES OF OUR BANK CAN BE TRADED ON THE STOCK EXCHANGES ONLY IN DEMATERIALIZED FORM.

The Equity Shares will be listed on the Stock Exchanges.

Procedure for availing the facility for Allotment in the electronic form is as under:

124

1. Open a beneficiary account with any DP (care should be taken that the beneficiary account should carry the name of the holder in the same manner as is exhibited in the records of our Bank. In the case of joint holding, the beneficiary account should be opened carrying the names of the holders in the same order as with our Bank). In case of investors having various folios in our Bank with different joint holders, the investors will have to open separate accounts for such holdings. Those Eligible Equity Shareholders who have already opened such beneficiary account(s) need not adhere to this step.

2. For Eligible Equity Shareholders already holding Equity Shares in dematerialized form as on the Record Date, the beneficial account number shall be printed on the CAF. For Investors who open accounts later or those who change their accounts and wish to receive their Equity Shares pursuant to the Issue by way of credit to such account, the necessary details of their beneficiary account should be filled in the space provided in the Application Form. It may be noted that the Allotment of Equity Shares arising out of the Issue may be made in dematerialized form even if the original Equity Shares are not dematerialized. Nonetheless, it should be ensured that the depository account is in the name(s) of the Eligible Equity Shareholders and the names are in the same order as in the records of our Bank.

Responsibility for correctness of information (including applicant’s age and other details) filled in the Application Form vis-à-vis such information with the applicant’s DP, would rest with the applicant. Applicants should ensure that the names of the applicants and the order in which they appear in Application Form should be the same as registered with the applicant’s DP.

If incomplete/ incorrect details are given under the heading ‘Request for Shares in Electronic Form’ in the Application Form, the applicant will get Equity Shares in physical form.

Allotment to investors opting for dematerialized form would be directly credited to the beneficiary account as given in the Application Form after verification. Allotment advice or letters of allotment, refund order (if any) would be sent directly to the applicant by the Registrar to the Issue but the applicant’s DP will provide to him the confirmation of the credit of such Equity Shares to the applicant’s depository account.

Renouncees will also have to provide the necessary details about their beneficiary account for Allotment in the Issue. In case these details are incomplete or incorrect, the Renouncees will get Equity Shares in physical form.

Utilisation of Issue Proceeds

Our Board declares that:

(a) The funds received against the Issue will be transferred to a separate bank account.

(b) Our Bank shall utilize funds collected in rights issue only after the finalization of the basis of Allotment.

Undertakings by our Bank

Our Bank undertakes as follows:

(a) The complaints received in respect of the Issue shall be attended to by our Bank expeditiously and satisfactorily.

(b) All steps for completion of the necessary formalities for listing and commencement of trading at all Stock Exchange where the securities are to be listed will be taken within seven working days of finalization of basis of Allotment.

(c) The funds required for making refunds to unsuccessful applicants as per the mode(s) disclosed in this Draft Letter of Offer shall be made available to the Registrar to the Issue by our Bank.

(d) Where refunds are made through electronic transfer of funds, a suitable communication shall be sent to the applicants within 15 days of the Issue Closing Date, giving details of the bank where refunds shall be credited along with amount and expected date of electronic credit of refund.

125

(e) Adequate arrangements shall be made to collect all ASBA Applications and to consider them similar to non ASBA Applications while finalizing the basis of Allotment.

Impersonation

As a matter of abundant caution, attention of the investors is specifically drawn to the provisions of sub- section (1) of section 68A of the Companies Act which is reproduced below:

“Any person who makes in a fictitious name an application to a Bank for acquiring, or subscribing for, any shares therein, or otherwise induces a Bank to allot, or register any transfer of shares therein to him, or any other person in a fictitious name, shall be punishable with imprisonment for a term which may extend to five years”.

Restriction on foreign ownership of Indian securities

Under Indian laws, the aggregate permissible foreign investment (including FDI) and investment by FIIs and NRIs in a private sector bank is limited to an aggregate of 49% of the paid up capital under the automatic route, which may be increased up to 74% under the government route. Further, the foreign exchange regulations stipulate that the aggregate FII’s holding, including sub-accounts of such FIIs, cannot exceed 24% of the paid up capital. However, with the approval of the Board of Directors and the shareholders by way of a special resolution, the aggregate FII holding in a company can be increased up to 49%. Pursuant to a resolution passed by our Board of Directors on April 28, 2012 and resolution passed by our shareholders through postal ballot declared on June 11, 2012, the total foreign investment (including FDI and investments by FIIs and NRIs), cannot exceed 40% of our paid up capital, within which NRI’s holding cannot exceed 24% and individual foreign investments through FDI or investment by FIIs and NRIs cannot exceed five percent of our paid up capital, respectively.

As of June 30, 2012, our aggregate foreign shareholding (including FII and NRI shareholding) was 30.75% of our paid up capital. Further, as of June 30, 2012, the aggregate shareholding of NRIs was 2.88% of our paid up capital.

In order to ensure that our foreign shareholding adheres to the abovementioned limits, Allotment to Non- Resident Investors (excluding Eligible Employees), up to their Rights Entitlement and for any additional Equity Shares shall be subject to such limits.

Investment by FIIs

In accordance with the current regulations, the following restrictions are applicable for investment by FIIs:

The Issue of Equity Shares under the Issue to a single FII should not exceed 10% of the post-issue paid up capital of our Bank (subject to RBI approval for holding beyond 5%). In respect of an FII investing in the Equity Shares on behalf of its sub-accounts the investment on behalf of each sub-account shall not exceed 5% of the total paid up capital of our Bank.

Investment by NRIs

Investments by NRIs are governed by the Portfolio Investment Scheme under Regulation 5(3)(i) of the Foreign Exchange Management (Transfer or Issue of Security by a Person Resident Outside India) Regulations, 2000. NRI Applicants should note that Applications by NRIs who are ineligible (including on account of restriction or prohibition under applicable local laws) and where a registered address in India has not been provided are liable to be rejected.

Investment by QFIs

QFIs have been permitted to invest in Indian equity issues, including in rights issues. A QFI can invest in the Issue through its depository participant with whom it has opened a demat account. No single QFI can hold more than five percent of paid up equity capital of the company at any point of time. Further, aggregate shareholding of all QFIs shall not exceed ten percent of the paid up equity capital of the Bank at any point of time. Applications will not be accepted from QFIs in restricted jurisdictions. QFI applicants which are QIBs or whose

126

total amount paid for the Equity Shares exceeds ` 2,00,000 can participate in the Issue only through the ASBA process.

Procedure for Applications by Mutual Funds

A separate Application can be made in respect of each scheme of an Indian mutual fund registered with the SEBI and such Applications shall not be treated as multiple Applications. The applications made by asset management companies or custodians of a mutual fund should clearly indicate the name of the concerned scheme for which the Application is being made.

As per the current norms prescribed by SEBI, no mutual fund scheme shall invest more than 10% of its net asset value in the equity shares of any company provided that the limit of 10% shall not be applicable for investments in index funds or sector or industry specific funds. Further, no mutual fund under all its schemes can own more than 10% of any company’s paid-up share capital carrying voting rights.

Dematerialized dealing

Our Bank has entered into agreements dated May 13, 2011 with NSDL and CDSL, respectively, and its Equity Shares bear the ISIN INE491A01021. In addition to the ISIN for the existing Equity Shares, our Bank shall obtain separate ISIN for the partly paid-up Equity Shares. The partly paid-up Equity Shares offered pursuant to the Issue shall be listed and traded under a separate ISIN for the period prior to the Call Record Date. On the Call Record Date, the trading of the existing partly paid-up Equity Shares shall be terminated.

Payment by Stockinvest

In terms of RBI Circular DBOD No. FSC BC 42/24.47.00/2003-04 dated November 5, 2003, the stockinvest scheme has been withdrawn with immediate effect. Hence, payment through stockinvest would not be accepted in the Issue.

Disposal of Application and Application Money

No acknowledgment will be issued for the Application Money received by our Bank. However, the Bankers to the Issue/ Registrar to the Issue receiving the Application Form will acknowledge its receipt by stamping and returning the acknowledgment slip at the bottom of each Application Form.

Our Board reserves its full, unqualified and absolute right to accept or reject any Application, in whole or in part, and in either case without assigning any reason thereto.

In case an Application is rejected in full, the whole of the Application Money received will be refunded. Wherever an Application is rejected in part, the balance of Application Money, if any, after adjusting any money due on Equity Shares allotted, will be refunded to the applicant within 15 days from the Issue Closing Date.

For further instruction, please read the Application Form carefully.

Restriction on share capital and voting rights

Pursuant to the Guidelines for ‘Acknowledgement of Shares in Private Banks’ contained in the circular DBOD. NO.PSBS. BC. 64/ 16.13.100/ 2003-04 dated February 3, 2004, or the ‘Acknowledgement Guidelines’, any acquisition or transfer of shares in a private bank which will take the aggregate holding of an individual or a group to five per cent or more of the paid-up capital of a bank, requires the prior “acknowledgement” of the RBI. The term “holding” refers to both direct and indirect holdings, beneficial or otherwise, and is computed with reference to the holding of the applicant, relatives (where the applicant is a natural person) and associated enterprises. In considering whether it will grant its acknowledgement to any application for an acquisition or transfer resulting in a holding of five per cent or more of the paid-up capital of a private bank, the RBI considers, among other matters, whether the applicant or proposed acquirer (including all entities connected with the acquirer) meets certain fitness and propriety tests.

Further as advised by RBI vide its circular DBOD.No.PSBS.BC.182/16.13.100/99-2000 dated May 31, 2000, we had amended our Articles of Association to the effect that acquisition of shares by a person/group which

127

would take his/its holding to five per cent or more of our total issued capital (or such other percentage as may be prescribed by the Reserve Bank from time to time) should be with the prior approval of the RBI.

The RBI considers additional criteria when granting its acknowledgement where the acquisition or transfer will take the aggregate shareholding of the applicant or proposed acquirer to 10% or more and certain further criteria when granting its acknowledgement where the acquisition or transfer will take the aggregate shareholding of the applicant or proposed acquirer to 30% or more of the paid-up capital of a private bank. The RBI, in terms of the guidelines on ownership and governance issued on February 28, 2005, may require the applicant or proposed acquirer to seek further approval in relation to subsequent acquisitions at any higher threshold as it may specify.

Relevant RBI Provisions

Rights issues by private sector banks – Acknowledgement of transfer / allotment of shares

In terms of RBI circular DBOD.No.PSBS.BC.79/16.13.100/2001-2002 dated March 20, 2002, listed as well as unlisted private sector banks are not required to obtain approval of the RBI for rights issues.

While reviewing the rights issues by various private sector banks, RBI highlighted the following issues with reference to percentage of holding at the time of rights issues: a) When some shareholders (individuals/ entities/ groups) pick up unsubscribed shares, the result would be the increase in his/ its holding increasing as a percentage of the total paid-up capital of the bank. b) When some shareholders do not pick up their entitlements, the holdings of the other shareholders would go up in percentage terms even if they picked up only their own entitlements.

The matter was examined from the view point of applicability of RBI circulars DBOD.No.PSBS.BC.64/16.13.100/2003-04 dated February 3, 2004 on acknowledgement of transfer/ allotment of shares in private sector banks and DBOD.No.BP.BC.71/21.01.01/2004-05 dated February 28, 2005 on ownership and governance and also the regulatory limits such as the cap for the aggregate FDI/ FII/ NRI holdings and the 5% limit for a bank's investment in the equity of another bank.

In view of the above, RBI has advised banks going for rights issues to make complete disclosure of the regulatory requirements in the offer document, including the following: a) Subscription to rights other than own entitlement will not be permitted if such subscription would result in breach of any statutory/ regulatory ceilings. b) Any acquisition of shares that will take the shareholding of any entity/ group of entities to 5% or more of the paid-up capital of the bank would require acknowledgement of RBI in terms of the criteria laid down in the RBI guidelines contained in the circular DBOD.No.PSBS.BC.64/16.13.100/2003-04 dated February 3, 2004. Further, in terms of the guidelines on ownership and governance issued on February 28, 2005, any acquisition that will take the shareholding of any entity/ group, directly or indirectly, to 10% or more of the paid-up capital of the bank will require the prior approval of RBI. c) If the holding of any shareholder breaches any statutory/ regulatory ceilings as a result of non-subscription of rights by other shareholders, the shareholder concerned will not be able to acquire any further shares till his/ its shareholding is brought within the stipulated ceilings.

In the event of statutory/ regulatory limits getting breached as indicated in paragraph above, the bank will inform the entities/ group of entities concerned suitably.
