Provisions are determined based on management estimate required to settle the obligation at the balance sheet date, supplemented by experience of similar transactions. These are reviewed at each balance sheet date and adjusted to reflect the current management estimates. In cases where the available information indicates that the loss on the contingency is reasonably possible but the amount of loss cannot be reasonably estimated, a disclosure is made in the financial statements.

No. BP.BC.80/21.06.201/2014-15 dated March 31,2015 which has been modified from time to time, in order to ensure short term resilience of banks to potential liquidity disruptions by ensuring that bank have sufficient high quality liquid assets (HQLA) to survive an acute stress scenario lasting for 30 days. The minimum LCR requirement set out in the RBI guidelines for the banks is 100%.
Composition of HQLA:
In the stock of high-quality liquid assets (HQLA), there are two categories of assets, viz. Level 1 and Level 2 assets. Level 2 assets are sub-divided into Level 2A and Level 2B assets on the basis of their price-volatility. Each category includes assets which the bank is holding on the first day of the stress period. Level 1 assets are with 0% haircut while in Level 2, 2A assets are with a minimum 15% haircut and Level 2B Assets, with a minimum 50% haircut.
Main drivers of LCR:
The Bank on a consolidated basis, during the three months ended March 31, 2026, had maintained average HQLA (after haircut) of ?94,248.85 crore. The HQLA is primarily driven by government securities in excess of minimum SLR, Government securities within the mandatory SLR requirement, to the extent allowed by RBI under MSF and the Facility to Avail Liquidity for Liquidity Coverage Ratio. Also, cash, excess CRR maintained with RBI. Level 2 HQLA primarily consisted of AA- and above rated corporate bonds and commercial papers.
Intra-period changes as well as changes over time:
LCR on consolidated basis were 122.01% and 121.98% for the quarter ended March 2026 and December 2025 respectively as against the regulatory requirement of 100%. The details of the average LCR on consolidated basis for the last four quarters are as follows:
Concentration of Funding Sources
A significant counterparty is defined as a single counterparty or a group of connected or affiliated counterparties accounting in aggregate for more than 1% of the Bank's total liabilities.
There was no significant counterparty deposit as on 31st March 2026.
A significant instrument/product is defined as a single instrument or product, or a group of similar instruments/products, which in aggregate account for more than 1% of the Bank's total liabilities. Examples of funding instruments/products include wholesale deposits, certificates of deposit, longterm bonds, etc.
Currency Mismatch in the LCR
As per RBI guidelines, the Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) standard is required to be met on a single-currency basis. However, in order to better capture potential currency-specific liquidity risks, LCR in each significant currency is required to be monitored.
Accordingly, the Bank monitors LCR on a daily basis in INR and compares the same against the regulatory requirement. In addition, for other significant currencies—defined as those in which aggregate liabilities denominated in that currency amount to 5 per cent or more of the Bank's total liabilities. The aggregate liabilities of any significant currency other than INR are less than 5% of the bank's total liabilities.
