Master Circular-Disclosure in Balance Sheets
The Reserve Bank of India has from time to time, issued circulars to banks on disclosure in the ‘Notes on Account’ to their Balance Sheets. To facilitate the banks have access to current instructions on the subject at one place, this master circular has been prepared incorporating all operative instructions issued by RBI upto 30 June 2005. The Master Circular has also been placed on the RBI web-site (http://www.rbi.org.in).
Yours faithfully,

Master Circular - Disclosures in Balance Sheet1. IntroductionThe users of the financial statements need information about the financial position and performance of the bank in making economic decisions. They are interested in its liquidity and solvency and the risks related to the assets and liabilities recognised on its balance sheet and to its off balance sheet items. In the interest of full and complete disclosure, some very useful information is better provided, or can only be provided, by notes to the financial statements. Recently, a lot of attention has been paid to the issue of market discipline in the banking sector. Market discipline, however, works only if market participants have access to timely and reliable information, which enables them to assess banks’ activities and the risks inherent in these activities. Enabling market discipline may have several benefits. First, it may mitigate the moral hazard and excessive risk taking. Second, the presence of market discipline may contribute to increased bank efficiency. And third, enhancing market discipline may help to reduce the social cost of supervision and regulation. Market discipline has been given due importance under Basel II by recognizing it as one of its three Pillars.
2. Disclosure RequirementsIn order to encourage market discipline, Reserve Bank has over the years developed a set of disclosure requirements which allow the market participants to assess key pieces of information on capital adequacy, risk exposures, risk assessment processes and key business parameters which provide a consistent and understandable disclosure framework that enhances comparability. Banks are also required to comply with the Accounting Standard (AS I) on Disclosure of Accounting Policies issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI). The enhanced disclosures have been achieved through revision of Balance Sheet and Profit & Loss Account of banks and enlarging the scope of disclosures to be made in “Notes on Accounts”. In addition to the 16 detailed schedules to the balance sheets, banks are required to furnish the following information in the “Notes on Accounts”:

Consistent with the international best practices in disclosure of penalties imposed by the regulator, it has been decided that the details of the levy of penalty on a bank in public domain will be in the interests of the investors and depositors. It has also been decided that strictures or directions on the basis of inspection reports or other adverse findings should be placed in the public domain. The penalty should also be disclosed in the "Notes on Accounts" to the Balance Sheet.
4. Disclosure Requirements as per Accounting Standards where RBI has issued guidelines in respect of disclosure items for ‘Notes on Accounts:
4.1 Accounting Standard 5-Net Profit or Loss for the period, prior period items and changes in accounting policies.
Since the format of the profit and loss accounts of banks prescribed in Form B under Third Schedule to the Banking Regulation Act 1949 does not specifically provide for disclosure of the impact of prior period items on the current year’s profit and loss, such disclosures, wherever warranted, may be made in the Notes on Accounts to the balance sheet of banks.
4.2 Accounting Standard 9-Revenue Recognition
This Standard requires that in addition to the disclosures required by Accounting Standard 1 on ‘Disclosure of Accounting Policies’ (AS 1), an enterprise should also disclose the circumstances in which revenue recognition has been postponed pending the resolution of significant uncertainties.
4.3 Accounting standard 15-Accounting for Retirement Benefits in the Financial Statements of Employers
Banks may disclose the change in accounting policy in the appropriate schedule relating to ‘Significant changes in Accounting Policies’ / ‘Principal Accounting Policies’. The Board of Directors of a bank must disclose the accounting policies followed in respect of VRS expenditure. If VRS applications were accepted subsequent to the closure of the accounting year, the Board of Directors would be required to make a disclosure in the Board Report of that fact and of the likely impact of the VRS.
4.4 Accounting Standard 17-Segment Reporting
While complying with the Accounting Standard, banks are required to adopt the following:
a) The business segment should ordinarily be considered as the primary reporting format and geographical segment would be the secondary reporting format.
b) The business segments will be ‘Treasury’, ‘Other banking operations’ and ‘Residual operations’.

The illustrative format of disclosure by banks for the AS is furnished below.

4.6 Accounting Standard 21, Consolidated Financial Statements
As regards disclosures in the ‘Notes on Accounts’ to the Consolidated Financial Statements, banks may be guided by general clarifications issued by Institute of Chartered Accountants of India from time to time.
A parent, presenting the CFS, should consolidate the financial statements of all subsidiaries - domestic as well as foreign, except those specifically permitted to be excluded under the AS-21. The reasons for not consolidating a subsidiary should be disclosed in the CFS. The responsibility of determining whether a particular entity should be included or not for consolidation would be that of the Management of the parent entity. In case, its Statutory Auditors are of the opinion that an entity, which ought to have been consolidated, has been omitted, they should incorporate their comments in this regard in the "Notes to Account".
4.7 Accounting Standard 22-Accounting for Taxes on Income
This Standard is applied in accounting for taxes on income. This includes the determination of the amount of the expense or saving related to taxes on income in respect of an accounting period and the disclosure of such an amount in the financial statements. Adoption of AS 22 may give rise to creation of either a deferred tax asset (DTA) or a deferred tax liability (DTL) in the books of accounts of banks and creation of DTA or DTL would give rise to certain issues which have a bearing on the computation of capital adequacy ratio and banks’ ability to declare dividends. In this regard it is clarified as under:
DTL created by debit to opening balance of Revenue Reserves on the first day of application of the Accounting Standards 22 or to Profit and Loss account for the current year should be included under item (vi) ‘others (including provisions)’ of Schedule 5 - ‘Other Liabilities and Provisions’ in the balance sheet. The balance in DTL account will not be eligible for inclusion in Tier I or Tier II capital for capital adequacy purpose as it is not an eligible item of capital.
DTA created by credit to opening balance of Revenue Reserves on the first day of application of Accounting Standards 22 or to Profit and Loss account for the current year should be included under item (vi) ‘others’ of Schedule 11 ‘Other Assets’ in the balance sheet.
Creation of DTA results in an increase in Tier I capital of a bank without any tangible asset being added to the banks’ balance sheet. Therefore, in terms of the extant instructions on capital adequacy, DTA, which is an intangible asset, should be deducted from Tier I Capital.
4.8 Accounting Standard 23-Accounting for Investments in Associates in Consolidated Financial Statements
This Accounting Standard sets out principles and procedures for recognising, in the consolidated financial statements, the effects of the investments in associates on the financial position and operating results of a group. A bank may acquire more than 20% of voting power in the borrower entity in satisfaction of its advances and it may be able to demonstrate that it does not have the power to exercise significant influence since the rights exercised by it are protective in nature and not participative. In such a circumstance, such investment may not be treated as investment in associate under this Accounting Standard. Hence the test should not be merely the proportion of investment but the intention to acquire the power to exercise significant influence.
4.9 Accounting Standard 24 - Discontinuing operations
Merger/ closure of branches of banks by transferring the assets/ liabilities to the other branches of the same bank may not be deemed as a discontinuing operation and hence this Accounting Standard will not be applicable to merger / closure of branches of banks by transferring the assets/ liabilities to the other branches of the same bank.
Disclosures would be required under the Standard only when:
a) discontinuing of the operation has resulted in shedding of liability and realisation of the assets by the bank or decision to discontinue an operation which will have the above effect has been finalised by the bank and
b) the discontinued operation is substantial in its entirety.
4.10 Accounting Standard 25-Interim Financial Reporting
The half yearly review prescribed by RBI for public sector banks, in consultation with SEBI, vide circular DBS. ARS. No. BC 13/ 08.91.001/ 2000-01 dated 17th May 2001 is extended to all banks (both listed and unlisted) with a view to ensure uniformity in disclosures. Banks may adopt the format prescribed by the RBI for the purpose.
