Banks: Buy ICICI
􀂙 Business getting back on track: Credit growth to gain pace, which until recently has been slow. The
mgmt has guided for a loan book growth of 18-20% by Mar-11
􀂙 Lower delinquencies to reduce provisioning requirement: The pace of NPA accretion has slowed down
over the past few quarters. Moreover, with increase in share of secured loans, delinquency levels are
likely to remain under control

􀂙 The bank has one of the best capital adequacy ratios in the industry with total CAR at 20.2% (Sep
2010). With increase in leverage levels, the return ratios are likely to improve
􀂙 After the merger with Bank of Rajasthan, the number of ICICI’s branches has crossed the 2,500 mark
by Sep-10, which will help in increasing traction in the retail business and accumulation of CASA
deposits
􀂙 The bank is aiming at monetizing its stake in the non-banking subsidiaries including life insurance
over the next few years
􀂙 We have a TP of Rs 1,324 with a BUY rating on the stock [2.5 x FY12E Adj. BV (adjusting for value and
cost of investment) + Rs 352 value of investments] – upside of 24% from CMP
