INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REVIEW REPORT                                                     

TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF

THE FEDERAL BANK LIMITED

 

1.   We have reviewed the accompanying statement of Unaudited Financial Results of THE FEDERAL BANK LIMITED ("the Bank") for the quarter ended30th June, 2014 ("the Statement")being submitted by theBank pursuant to Clause 41 of the Listing Agreements with the Stock Exchanges, except for the disclosures referred to in paragraph 6 below. This Statement is the responsibility of the Bank's Management and has been approved by the Board of Directors. Our responsibility is to issue a report on the Statement based on our review.

 

2.   We conducted our review of the Statement in accordance with the Standard on Review Engagements (SRE) 2410,'Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditors of the Entity',issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India.  This Standard requires that we plan and perform the review to obtain moderate assurance as to whether the Statement is free of material misstatement. A review is limited primarily to inquiries of the Bank personnel and analytical procedures applied to financial data and thus provides less assurance than an audit. We have not performed an audit and accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

 

3.   In the conduct of our review, 56 branches have been reviewed by one of usand we have relied on the review reports in respect of returns including non-performing assets received from the branch auditors of 34 branches, specifically appointed for this purpose by the bank. These review reports cover 54 Percent of the advances portfolio of the bank. Apart from these review reports, in the conduct of our review, we have also relied upon various returns received from the branches of the bank.

 

4.    Based on our review conducted as stated above, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying Statement, prepared in accordance with the Accounting Standards specified under the Companies Act, 1956 (which are deemed to be applicable as per Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013, read with Rule 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014) and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, has not disclosed the information required to be disclosed in terms of Clause 41 of the Listing Agreements with the stock exchanges, including the manner in which it is to be disclosed, or that it contains any material misstatement or that it has not been prepared in accordance with the relevant prudential norms issued by the Reserve Bank of India in respect of income recognition, asset classification, provisioning and other related matters.

Our conclusion is not qualified in respect of this matter.

 

6.   Further, we also report that we have traced the number of shares as well as the percentage of shareholding in respect of the aggregate amount of public shareholding, and the number of shares as well as the percentage of shares pledged/encumbered and non-encumbered in respect of the aggregate amount of promoters and promoter group shareholding in terms of Clause 35 of the Listing Agreements with the Stock Exchanges and the particulars relating to investor complaints disclosed in the Statement, from the details furnished by the Registrars.
