What the auditors said
- Four firms - S. P. Chopra & Co., Gupta Sharma & Associates, O. P. Totla & Co. and NBS & Co. - carried out a limited review. A review gives moderate assurance and is not an audit; they state that they do not express an audit opinion.
- Their conclusion: nothing has come to their attention that causes them to believe the unaudited results, read with the notes, have not disclosed the information required, contain a material misstatement, or were not prepared in line with RBI prudential norms on income recognition, asset classification, provisioning and related matters.
- Their review covered 77.54% of the advance portfolio (excluding advances of asset recovery branches and food credit) and 50.33% of gross non-performing assets; the balance is supported by review reports of concurrent auditors.
