Filing of Form 20-F

ICICI Bank Limited (NYSE: IBN) filed its annual report in Form 20-F for the year ended March 31, 2021 (FY2021) on July 30, 2021, as required by United States securities regulations. The Form 20-F annual report includes the Bank's consolidated financial statements under Indian GAAP and a reconciliation of consolidated profit after tax and net worth under Indian GAAP to net income and stockholders' equity under U.S. GAAP, approved by the Audit Committee of the Board.

The net income for FY2021 under U.S. GAAP was Rs. 21,370 crore (US$ 2,922 million) as compared to consolidated profit after tax under Indian GAAP of Rs. 18,384 crore (US$ 2,514 million). The significant difference between net income under U.S. GAAP and Indian GAAP was primarily due to difference in allowance for loan losses, difference in accounting for the valuation of debt and equity securities and differences in the deferred taxes.

Under U.S. GAAP, the allowance for loan losses in the income statement was lower by Rs. 4,865 crore (US$ 665 million) in FY2021 as compared to Indian GAAP. The differences in the methodology of computing loan loss allowances between Indian GAAP and U.S. GAAP result in timing differences in the recognition of allowance for loan losses. The U.S. GAAP financials reflect the adoption of ASU Topic 2016-13, 'Financial Instruments-Credit Losses' effective April 1, 2020 under U.S. GAAP. This framework requires that the management's estimate reflects credit losses over the instrument's remaining expected life and considers expected future changes in macroeconomic conditions as against the incurred loss methodology applied earlier. Under U.S. GAAP, the negative impact of transition to ASU Topic 2016-13, was Rs. 5,188 crore (US$ 709 million) (net-of deferred taxes) at April 1, 2020 and was recorded through retained earnings.

Under U.S. GAAP, the difference in accounting for the valuation of debt and equity securities resulted in lower net income by Rs. 1,163 crore (US$ 159 million) as compared to Indian GAAP in FY2021 primarily due to gains on sale of equity shares in the Bank's subsidiaries being recorded through equity under U.S. GAAP while these gains were recorded through profit and loss under Indian GAAP, offset, in part, by other differences in accounting for the valuation of debt and equity securities between Indian GAAP and U.S. GAAP.

Stockholders' equity as per U.S. GAAP was Rs. 179,423 crore (US$ 24.5 billion) at March 31, 2021 compared to the consolidated net worth as per Indian GAAP of Rs. 157,588 crore (US$ 21.5 billion).

Pursuant to its issuance and listing of securities in the United States under registration statements filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, ICICI Bank files annual report in Form 20-F with the SEC as required by U.S. securities laws and regulations. ICICI Bank in its annual report in Form 20-F includes consolidated financial statements under Indian GAAP, with a reconciliation of profit after tax and net worth under Indian GAAP to net income and stockholders' equity under U.S. GAAP and a description of significant differences between Indian GAAP and U.S. GAAP.

It may be noted that there are significant differences in the basis of accounting between U.S. GAAP and Indian GAAP primarily relating to allowance for loan losses, business combinations, consolidation, valuation of securities and derivatives, amortization of fees and costs, compensation costs, securitization, income taxes and fixed assets.
