The stress testing framework includes a range of Bank-specific market (systemic) and combined scenarios. The ICAAP exercise covers the domestic and overseas operations of the Bank, banking subsidiaries and non-banking subsidiaries. The Committee reviews setting up of limits on any industry or country, migration to the advanced approaches under Basel framework, the proceedings of Group Risk Management Committee and the activities of the Asset Liability Management Committee. The Committee reviews the level and direction of major risks pertaining to credit, market, liquidity, operational, reputation, technology, information security, compliance, group and capital at risk as a part of the risk dashboard.

Commodity price risk or foreign exchange risk and hedging activities

The foreign exchange risk position including bullion is managed within the net overnight open position limit approved by the Board of Directors. The foreign currency assets of the Bank are primarily floating rate linked assets. Wholesale liability raising for foreign currencies takes place in USD or other currencies through bond issuances, bilateral loans and syndicated/club loans as well as refinance from Export Credit Agencies which may be at a fixed rate or floating rate linked. In case of fixed rate long-term wholesale fund raising in USD, the interest rate risk is generally hedged through interest rate swaps wherein the Bank effectively moves the interest payments to a floating rate index in order to match the asset profile. In case of fund raising in non-USD currencies, the foreign exchange risk is hedged through foreign exchange swaps or currency interest rate swaps.

The extant RBI guidelines do not allow AD Category I Banks to take any market positions in commodity related activities. However, the extant guidelines allows Bank to import gold and silver in line with the RBI license and selling of imported gold/silver on outright basis to domestic clients or providing gold metal loan to jewellery manufacturers. ICICI Bank provides pricing and hedging of Gold Metal Loan to jewellery customers and such exposures are covered on a back-to-back basis with gold suppliers.

Till March 31, 2021, the Bank recognised cost of stock options granted under Scheme 2000, using intrinsic value method. Pursuant to RBI clarification dated August 30, 2021, the cost of stock options/units granted after March 31, 2021 is recognised based on fair value method. The cost of stock options granted up to March 31, 2021 continues to be recognised on intrinsic value method. The Bank uses Black-Scholes model to fair value the options/units on the grant date and the inputs used in the valuation model include assumptions such as the expected life of the share option/units, volatility, risk free rate and dividend yield. The diluted earnings per share (EPS) pursuant to issue of shares on exercise of options/units calculated in accordance with Accounting Standard 20 for the year ended March 31, 2025 was Rs 65.89 compared to basic EPS of Rs 67.01.

The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, the key assumptions used to estimate the fair value of options granted.

Particulars	Year ended March 31, 2024	Year ended March 31, 2025
Risk-free interest rate	6.88% to 7.32%	6.42% to 7.11%
Expected life	3.23 to 5.23 years	3.43 to 5.43 years

Expected volatility	24.78% to 37.41%	18.01% to 33.27%
Expected dividend yield	0.56% to 0.85%	0.65% to 0.83%

The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, the key assumptions used to estimate the fair value of units granted.

Particulars	Year ended March 31, 2024	Year ended March 31, 2025
Risk-free interest rate	6.82% to 6.94%	6.42% to 7.09%
Expected term	1.58 to 3.58 years	1.58 to 3.58 years
Expected volatility	23.63% to 36.56%	16.49% to 24.72%
Expected dividend yield	0.56%	0.72% to 0.74%

The weighted average fair value, based on Black- Scholes model, of options granted during the year ended March 31, 2025 was Rs 444.76 (year ended March 31, 2024: Rs 340.59) and of units granted during the year ended March 31, 2025 was Rs 1,120.43 (year ended March 31, 2024: Rs 879.43). The weighted average exercise price of options granted during the year ended March 31, 2025 was Rs 1,052.89 (year ended March 31, 2024: Rs 894.95).

Risk free interest rates over the expected term of the option/units are based on the government securities yield in effect at the time of the grant. The expected term of an option/units is estimated based on the vesting term as well as expected exercise behavior of the employees who receive the option/units. Expected exercise behavior is estimated based on the historical stock option exercise pattern of the Bank. Expected volatility during the estimated expected term of the option/units is based on historical volatility determined based on observed market prices of the Bank's publicly traded equity shares. Expected dividends during the estimated expected term of the option/units are based on recent dividend activity. The key assumptions for the year ended March 31, 2025 also includes the key assumptions used for options/units granted to employees of ICICI Securities in accordance with the Scheme of Arrangement.
