Auditor's Report on the Standalone Annual Financial Results of
The Federal Bank Limited pursuant to the Regulation 33 of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015
Independent Auditor's Report
To the Board of Directors of
The Federal Bank Limited
Report on the audit of the Standalone Annual Financial Results
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying standalone annual financial results of The Federal Bank Limited ("the Bank") for the year ended 31 March 2020, attached herewith, (the "standalone Financial Results"), being submitted by the Bank pursuant to the requirement of Regulation 33 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, as amended ("Listing Regulations"). except for the disclosures relating to Pillar 3 disclosure as at 31 March 2020, including leverage ratio and liquidity coverage ratio under Basel III Capital Regulations as have been disclosed on the Bank's website and in respect of which a link has been provided in the standalone Financial Results and have not been audited by us. Attention is drawn to the fact that the figures for the last quarter ended 31 March 2020 and the corresponding quarter ended in the previous year as reported in these standalone Financial Results are the balancing figures between audited figures in respect of the full financial year and the published year to date figures up to the end of the third quarter of the relevant financial year. Also the figures up to the end of the third quarter had only been reviewed and not subjected to audit.
In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, these standalone Financial Results:
i. are presented in accordance with the requirements of Regulation 33 of the Listing Regulations in this regard except for the disclosures relating to Pillar 3 disclosure as at 31 March 2020, including leverage ratio and liquidity coverage ratio under Basel III Capital Regulations as have been disclosed on the Bank's website and in respect of which a link has been provided in the standalone Financial Results and have not been audited by us; and
ii. give a true and fair view, in conformity with the recognition and measurement principles laid down in the applicable accounting standards, RBI guidelines and other accounting principles generally accepted in India of the net profit and other financial information for the year ended 31 March 2020.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing ("SAs") specified under section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013 ("the Act"). Our responsibilities under those SAs are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Annual Financial Results section of our report. We are independent of the Bank in accordance with the Code of Ethics issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the standalone Financial Results , and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Emphasis of Matter
As more fully described in Note 11 to the standalone Financial Results, the Bank has recognized provision on certain loans that were though overdue but standard as at 29 February 2020, for which moratorium benefit has been granted, based on the days past due status as on that date in accordance with the Reserve Bank of India COVID-19 Regulatory Package.
As more fully described in Note 11 to the standalone Financial Results, the extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will have impact on the Bank's financial performance is dependent on future developments, which are highly uncertain.
Our opinion on the standalone financial results is not modified in respect of the above matters.
Responsibilities of Management and those Charged with Governance for the Standalone Annual Financial Results
These standalone Financial Results have been prepared on the basis of the standalone annual financial statements and reviewed quarterly standalone Financial Results upto the end of the third quarter. The Bank's Management and the Board of Directors are responsible for the preparation of these standalone Financial Results that give a true and fair view of the net profit and other financial information in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles laid down in the Accounting Standards specified under Section 133 of the Act, the relevant provisions of the Banking Regulation Act, 1949, the circulars, guidelines and directions issued by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) from time to time ("RBI Guidelines") and other accounting principles generally accepted in India and in compliance with Regulation 33 of the Listing Regulations. This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding of the assets of the Bank and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and the design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls, that were operating effectively for ensuring accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the standalone Financial Results that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the standalone Financial Results, the Management and the Board of Directors are responsible for assessing the Bank's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Management and Board of Directors either intends to liquidate the Bank or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
The Board of Directors is also responsible for overseeing the Bank's financial reporting process
Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Annual Financial Results
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the standalone Financial Results as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these standalone Financial Results.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
§ Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the standalone Financial Results, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
§ Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. Under Section 143(3)(i) of the Act, we are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the Bank has adequate internal financial controls with reference to standalone financial statements in place and the operating effectiveness of such controls.
§ Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the Board of Directors.
§ Conclude on the appropriateness of the Board of Directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Bank's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the standalone Financial Results or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Bank to cease to continue as a going concern.
§ Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the standalone Financial Results, including the disclosures, and whether the standalone Financial Results represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
Other Matters
The standalone Financial Results incorporate the relevant returns of 80 Branches and Treasury Branch audited by either of us and audited returns in respect of 1,169 branches audited by other branch auditors. The Branches audited by us cover 47.76% of the advances portfolio (excluding outstanding of asset recovery branches and food credit advance) of the Bank and 32.73% of non-performing advances of the Bank.

The SARS-CoV-2 virus responsible for COVID-19 continues to spread across the globe and India, which has contributed to a significant volatility in global and Indian Financial markets and a significant decrease in the global and local economic activities. COVID-19 outbreak was declared as a global pandemic on March 11, 2020 by World Health Organisation. The Government of India had announced a series of lock-down measures on March 24, 2020 which has been extended from time to time up to May 31, 2020. The recent directions from the Government indicates calibrated and gradual withdrawal of lockdown and partial resumption of economic activities, though major economic centres still continue to be under strict lockdown. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will impact the Bank's results will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain, including among other things, any new information concerning the severity of the COVID-19 pandemic and action to contain its spread or mitigate its impact whether government mandated or elected by the Bank. The Bank's capital and liquidity position is strong and would continue to be the focus area for the Bank during this period.
In accordance with the 'COVID-19 Regulatory Packages' announced by the RBI on March 27, 2020 and April 17, 2020 ('the RBI guidelines'), with regard to providing relief to borrowers' on account of COVID-19 pandemic whose accounts were standard as on February 29, 2020 , the Bank, in accordance with the Board approved policy had offered moratorium on repayment of loan instalments and/or deferment of interest due between March 1, 2020 and May 31, 2020 including relaxation in certain parameters, to all eligible borrowers, without considering the same as restructuring. Further on May 22, 2020, RBI has permitted the Banks to extend such benefits to eligible borrowers for another three months, from June 1, 2020 to August 31, 2020. In accordance with the RBI guidelines, the Bank is required to make provision @ 10% of outstanding advances over two quarters beginning with quarter ending March 31, 2020 in respect of such borrowers whose accounts, though classified as standard as on March 31, 2020, would have become non-performing but for these benefits/relaxations extended as per RBI guidelines. The Bank, as a prudent measure, has made the entire 10% provision amounting to ` 3,026.60 Lakhs in the current quarter.
Further, in addition to the above, as a prudent measure, the Bank has made additional provision of ` 6,303.40 Lakhs as at March 31, 2020 against the likely impact of COVID-19 pandemic in respect of exposure of the Bank to certain specified sectors based on assessment of presently available information. The entire provision of ` 9,330.00 Lakhs in respect of COVID-19 impact is grouped under Other liabilities and provisions in the Balance sheet of the Bank.
12
The Reserve Bank of India, vide its circular dated April 17, 2020, has decided that banks shall not make any further dividend payouts from profits pertaining to the financial year ended March 31, 2020 until further instructions, with a view that banks must conserve capital in an environment of heightened uncertainty caused by COVID-19 pandemic. Accordingly, the Board of Directors of the Bank have not recommended any dividend for the year 2019-20 (Previous Year 70% i.e ` 1.40/- per Equity Share).
13

The SARS-CoV-2 virus responsible for COVID-19 continues to spread across the globe and India, which has contributed to a significant volatility in global and Indian Financial markets and a significant decrease in the global and local economic activities. COVID-19 outbreak was declared as a global pandemic on March 11, 2020 by World Health Organisation. The Government of India had announced a series of lock-down measures on March 24, 2020 which has been extended from time to time up to May 31, 2020. The recent directions from the Government indicates calibrated and gradual withdrawal of lockdown and partial resumption of economic activities, though major economic centres still continue to be under strict lockdown. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will impact the Bank's results will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain, including among other things, any new information concerning the severity of the COVID-19 pandemic and action to contain its spread or mitigate its impact whether government mandated or elected by the Bank. The Bank's capital and liquidity position is strong and would continue to be the focus area for the Bank during this period.

Further on May 22, 2020, RBI has permitted the Banks to extend such benefits to eligible borrowers for another three months, from June 1, 2020 to August 31, 2020. In accordance with the RBI guidelines, the Bank is required to make provision @ 10% of outstanding advances over two quarters beginning with quarter ending March 31, 2020 in respect of such borrowers whose accounts, though classified as standard as on March 31, 2020, would have become non-performing but for these benefits/relaxations extended as per RBI guidelines.
