6. Preference shares
Certain government securities amounting to ` 2,749.9 million at March 31, 2013 (March 31, 2012: ` 2,578.1 million) have
been earmarked against redemption of preference shares issued by the Bank, which fall due for redemption on April 20,
2018, as per the original issue terms.
7. Employee Stock Option Scheme (ESOS)
In terms of the ESOS, as amended, the maximum number of options granted to any eligible employee in a financial
year shall not exceed 0.05% of the issued equity shares of the Bank at the time of grant of the options and aggregate of
all such options granted to the eligible employees shall not exceed 10% of the aggregate number of the issued equity
shares of the Bank on the date(s) of the grant of options. Under the stock option scheme, eligible employees are entitled
to apply for equity shares. Options granted for fiscal 2003 vest in a graded manner over a three-year period, with 20%,
30% and 50% of the grants vesting in each year commencing from the end of 12 months from the date of grant. Options
granted from fiscal 2004 vest in a graded manner over a four-year period, with 20%, 20%, 30% and 30% of the grants
vesting in each year commencing from the end of 12 months from the date of grant. Options granted in April 2009 vest
in a graded manner over a five year period with 20%, 20%, 30% and 30% of grant vesting each year, commencing from
the end of 24 months from the date of grant. Options granted in September, 2011 vest in a graded manner over a five
years period with 15%, 20%, 20% and 45% of grant vesting each year, commencing from the end of 24 months from
the date of the grant. The options can be exercised within 10 years from the date of grant or five years from the date of
vesting, whichever is later. The exercise price of Bank’s options was the last closing price on the stock exchange, which
recorded highest trading volume preceding the date of grant of options. Hence, there was no compensation cost based
on intrinsic value of options.
In February, 2011, the Bank granted 3,035,000 options to eligible employees and whole-time Directors of ICICI Bank and
certain of its subsidiaries at an exercise price of ` 967. Of these options granted, 50% would vest on April 30, 2014 and
the balance 50% would vest on April 30, 2015. The options can be exercised within 10 years from the date of grant or
five years from the date of vesting, whichever is later. Based on intrinsic value of options, compensation cost of ` 21.0
million was recognised during the year ended March 31, 2013 (March 31, 2012: ` 21.0 million).
If ICICI Bank had used the fair value of options based on binomial tree model, compensation cost in the year ended
March 31, 2013 would have been higher by ` 1,865.9 million and proforma profit after tax would have been ` 81.39
billion. On a proforma basis, ICICI Bank’s basic and diluted earnings per share would have been ` 70.58 and ` 70.32
respectively. The key assumptions used to estimate the fair value of options granted during the year ended March 31,
2013 are given below.
Risk-free interest rate .................................................................................................................. 7.99% to 8.87%
Expected life ............................................................................................................................... 6.35 years
Expected volatility....................................................................................................................... 48.99% to 49.55%
Expected dividend yield ............................................................................................................. 1.52% to 1.96%
The weighted average fair value of options granted during the year ended March 31, 2013 is ` 434.91 (March 31, 2012: `
592.52).
