Notes

1.   During the year ended March 31, 2003, the Bank allotted 3,000 shares
     pursuant to exercise of employee stock options.

2.   The segment information is based on the segments currently identified post
     merger of ICICI Limited with the Bank.

3.   Other Income includes gain of Rs. 1191 crores realised in Q2 2003 on sale
     of equity shares of the Bank held by a trust, which were transferred to it
     by erstwhile ICICI Limited in accordance with the scheme of amalgamation.

4.   Net NPAs to net customer assets are at 4.9%.

5.   The Board of Directors have recommended a dividend of Rs. 7.50 per share
     (75%) for the year ended March 31, 2003 (Previous year dividend Rs. 2 per
     share (20%))

6.   The results for the year ended March 31, 2003 include the results of
     erstwhile ICICI Limited and its subsidiaries, ICICI Personal Financial
     Services Limited and ICICI Capital Services Limited, amalgamated with the
     Bank w.e.f March 30, 2002. The financials for the current periods are
     therefore not comparable with the earlier periods.

7.   Previous period figures have been regrouped / reclassified where necessary
     to conform to current period classification.

The above financial results have been taken on record by the Board of Directors
at its meeting held on April 25, 2003.

News Release                                                April 25, 2003


Performance Review - Year ended March 31, 2003

The Board of Directors of ICICI Bank Limited (NYSE: IBN) at its meeting held at
Mumbai today, approved the audited accounts of the Bank for the year ended
March 31, 2003 (FY2003). The Board also approved the audited consolidated
accounts for the period. In view of the merger of ICICI Limited (ICICI) and two
of its subsidiaries with the Bank on March 30, 2002, the results for FY2003 are
not comparable with the results on a standalone basis for the year ended March
31, 2002 (FY2002).

Results

ICICI Bank's profit after tax for FY2003 was Rs. 1,206 crore as compared to Rs.
258 crore for FY2002. The profit after tax for FY2003 represents a return on
equity of 18.3%. This was achieved inspite of the negative impact of compliance
with regulatory reserve requirements on ICICI's historic liabilities.

During the year, the ICICI Bank Shares Trust divested 101.4 million shares of
the Bank (transferred to the Trust by erstwhile ICICI prior to the merger) to
strategic and institutional investors, resulting in capital gains of Rs. 1,191
crore flowing to the Bank.

The Bank made total provisions and write-offs, including accelerated/
additional provisions and write-offs, of Rs. 1,791 crore against loans and
other assets, primarily relating to erstwhile ICICI's portfolio.

The profit after tax for the quarter ended March 31, 2003 (Q4-2003) increased
to Rs. 338 crore from Rs. 330 crore for the quarter ended December 31, 2002
(Q3-2003), despite the significantly lower treasury gains (Rs. 17 crore as
compared to Rs. 180 crore in the previous quarter) on account of the interest
rate environment prevailing during the quarter. The profit after tax for the
quarter ended March 31, 2002 (Q4-2002) was Rs. 57 crore.

Dividend

The Board has recommended a significant stepping up of the rate of dividend on
equity share capital from 20% for FY2002 to 75% for FY2003. The declaration and
payment of dividend is subject to the approval of Reserve Bank of India (RBI)
and the shareholders of the Bank.

Operational highlights

During the year the Bank achieved market leadership across products in the
retail finance segment. The Bank made retail loan disbursements of about Rs.
20,300 crore during the year, including home loan disbursements of Rs. 8,660
crore. The retail assets increased by over Rs. 13,000 crore to Rs. 19,132
crore. ICICI Bank's retail assets now constitute 18% of total assets and 30% of
customer assets as compared to 6% of total assets and 11% of customer assets at
March 31, 2003. The Bank's total net customer assets at March 31, 2003 were Rs.
64,051 crore as against Rs. 57,526 crore at March 31, 2002, an increase of 11%.
The Bank's agri-business portfolio was about Rs. 2,100 crore, which was
achieved with a limited rural distribution network through innovative financing
structures, supply chain linkages and technology.

During FY2003, the Bank repaid about Rs. 22,400 crore of erstwhile ICICI's
liabilities as they fell due in accordance with their terms of repayment,
including the exercise of all available call options. At March 31, 2003, the
Bank's total deposits were Rs. 48,169 crore, a growth of 50% over total
deposits at March 31, 2002, which is estimated to be the highest deposit growth
rate in the banking system. The Bank's estimated market share in incremental
banking system deposits was about 10.4%. The Bank's average cost of deposits
declined to 6.2% for Q4-2003 from 7.4% for Q1-2003.

The Bank's international initiative, launched in FY2002, is proceeding as
planned. The Bank is in the process of operationalising its branch in Singapore
and representative office in China and is awaiting overseas regulatory approval
for setting up subsidiaries in the United Kingdom and Canada and a
representative office in Dubai. The Bank already has representative offices in
the United States and the United Kingdom.

At March 31, 2003, the Bank's net non-performing customer assets were Rs. 3,151
crore constituting 4.9% of customer assets. The Bank's standard assets included
net restructured assets of Rs. 8,943 crore. The additions to net restructured
assets in Q4-2003 included borrower accounts in the iron and steel sector
restructured through RBI's Corporate Debt Restructuring (CDR) mechanism. At
March 31, 2003, the Bank had a provision coverage of about 62% against
non-performing assets.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Bank's recovery efforts have been strengthened by the enactment of the
Securitisation and Reconstruction of Financial Assets and Enforcement of
Security Interest Act, 2002. The Bank has sponsored Asset Reconstruction
Company (India) Limited (ARCIL) jointly with State Bank of India, Industrial
Development Bank of India and other banks and institutions, under the framework
created by the Act. ARCIL has submitted its application for registration to RBI
and would become operational on receipt of the same.

ICICI Bank's capital adequacy at March 31, 2003 (after taking into account the
proposed dividend) was 11.1% (including Tier-1 capital adequacy of 7.0%), well
above RBI's requirement of 9.0%. In accordance with the new RBI guidelines,
deferred tax asset of Rs. 488 crore has been reduced from Tier-1 capital,
unlike in prior periods.

The international credit rating agency Moody's Investor Service upgraded the
Bank's long-term foreign currency debt rating from Ba1 to Baa3. This is one
notch higher than the sovereign ceiling for India. With this upgrade, ICICI
Bank became the first Indian company to be assigned an investment grade rating
by Moody's since 1998.

Audited consolidated accounts under Indian GAAP

The consolidated profit after tax was Rs. 1,152 crore including the results of
operations of subsidiaries and affiliates of erstwhile ICICI that became
subsidiaries and affiliates of the Bank on merger. ICICI Securities earned a
profit after tax of Rs. 108 crore in FY2003. ICICI Lombard General Insurance
Company achieved break-even during the year, focusing on profitable business
segments with low loss ratios. ICICI Prudential Life Insurance Company
maintained its market leadership among private sector life insurance companies,
with a market share of 39% among private life insurers and 22% in the total
pensions market. Future bonus provisions and non-amortisation of expenses by
ICICI Prudential Life Insurance Company in line with insurance company
accounting norms had a negative impact of Rs. 109 crore on the Bank's
consolidated profit. Life insurance companies worldwide require five to seven
years to achieve breakeven, in view of business set-up and customer acquisition
costs in the initial years as well as reserving for actuarial liability. The
deficit in the initial years is usually higher for faster-growing companies;
the profit streams after breakeven is achieved are expected to be
correspondingly higher.

US GAAP financial statements

The Bank will announce its US GAAP results in compliance with the requirements
of the Bank's listing on the New York Stock Exchange, on completion of the
audit of its US GAAP accounts. As stated in the Bank's press release dated July
31, 2002, there are significant differences in the basis of accounting between
US GAAP and Indian GAAP. These differences arise primarily due to ICICI being
the accounting acquirer of ICICI Bank under US GAAP. Consequently, the US GAAP
results would be divergent from the Indian GAAP results. Certain primary
differences are set out below:

a.   US GAAP requires the capital gains on the sale of shares of ICICI Bank
     (included in income under Indian GAAP Rs. 1,191 crore) to be directly
     added to the stockholders' equity without being routed through the income
     statement.

b.   A significant portion of the treasury gains of Rs. 447 crore realised
     during the year and recognised as income under Indian GAAP, does not
     appear in the current year's US GAAP income statement as these gains were
     already recognized while marking-to-market ICICI Bank's treasury portfolio
     while accounting for the merger under US GAAP.

Consequent to these primary differences, the results under Indian GAAP and US
GAAP are not comparable.

1 crore = 10.0 million
