CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT
Dear Stakeholder,
It gives me great pleasure to place before you the
highlights of the Bank’s performance during the
financial year 2019-20 (FY 2020). This was the
first year of the amalgamated entity after merger of
Vijaya Bank and Dena Bank into Bank of Baroda.
I am happy to say that the amalgamation process
was completed smoothly without any disruption
or inconvenience to the customers. Once the
changeover of the technology platform is completed
in the current financial year, the customers of all
erstwhile banks will have seamless benefit of
advanced level of bouquet of services.
FY 2020 was the year in which the change of MD and
CEO happened. Mr. P S Jayakumar completed his
tenure of 4 years in the Bank successfully, leaving
behind many innovative practices in the Bank. I Dr. Hasmukh Adhia

30 horizon under a significantly severe liquidity stress scenario.
. The LCR and monitoring tools are applicable for Indian banks
. 01 , 2015 initially w.e.f. 1st January 2015 at whole bank level only i.e. on
a stand-alone basis including overseas operations through
branches and subsequently at consolidated basis w.e.f. 1st

: The LCR has two components:
(i) - (i) The value of the stock of high-quality liquid assets (HQLA)
in stressed conditions. – The Numerator
() - (-)
(ii) Total net cash outflows: The term “Total net cash outflows”
(ii) : 30 is defined as “Total expected cash outflows” minus “Total

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged With
Governance for the Standalone Financial Statements
6. The Bank’s Board of Directors is responsible with
6. , respect to the preparation of these Standalone
1949 29 - Financial Statements that give a true and fair view of
the financial position, financial performance and cash
() flow of the Bank in accordance with the accounting
principles generally accepted in India including the
() Accounting Standards specified by ICAI as applicable
to banks, provisions of Section 29 of the Banking
,
Regulation Act, 1949 and the circulars and guidelines
, issued by RBI from time to time. 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 judgements and estimate that are
reasonable and prudent; and design, implementation
and maintenance of adequate internal financial
controls, that were operating effectively for ensuring
the accuracy and completeness of the accounting
, records, relevant to the preparation and presentation
of the Standalone financial statements that give true
and fair view and are free from material misstatement,
. whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the standalone financial statements,
the Board of Directors is 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 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
. are also responsible for overseeing the Bank’s financial
reporting process.

Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone
Financial Statements
7. 7. Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance
about whether the standalone financial statements 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 statements.
8. 8. As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise
professional judgment and maintain professional
232
Financial Statement
• • Identify and assess the risks of material
misstatement of the financial statements, 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, but not for the purpose of
expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the
Bank’s internal control.
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting
. policies used and the reasonableness of
accounting estimates and related disclosures
• made by management.
• Conclude on the appropriateness of
. management’s 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 financial statements 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 financial statements, including the
disclosures, and whether the financial statements
. represent the underlying transactions and events
• in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
, Materiality is the magnitude of the misstatement
in the statement that, individually or in aggregate,
makes it probable that the economic decisions of a
reasonably knowledgeable user of the statement may
. be influenced. We consider quantitative materiality and
qualitative factors in; (i) planning the scope of our audit
work and evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) to
evaluate the effects of any identified misstatements in
. the statement.
(i)
We communicate with those charged with governance
; (ii) regarding, among other matters, the planned scope
( ) and timing of the audit and significant audit findings,
. including any significant deficiencies in internal control
233
Annual Report
2019-2020
- 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.
, From the matters communicated with those charged
. with governance, we determine those matters that
were of most significance in the audit of the standalone
financial statements of the current period and are
therefore the key audit matters. We describe these
matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation
. precludes public disclosure about the matter or when,
in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that
a matter should not be communicated in our report
because the adverse consequences of doing so would
reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest
benefits of such communication.

. conform to Generally Accepted Accounting Principles
() , (GAAP) in India, which comprises statutory provisions,
, / , regulatory/ Reserve Bank of India (RBI) guidelines,
() Accounting Standards/ guidance notes issued by the
Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) and
/ the practices prevalent in the banking industry in India.
. In respect of foreign offices, statutory provisions and
practices prevailing in respective foreign countries are

management to make estimates and assumptions
(
considered in the reported amount of assets and
) liabilites (including contingent liabilites) as of date
of the financial statements and the reported income
. - and expenses for the reporting period. Management
. believes that the estimates used in the preparation of
. the financial statements are prudent and reasonable.
Actual results could differ from these estimates. Any
/ / revision to the accounting estimates is recognised
. prospectively in the current and future periods unless
3. : otherwise stated.

available and, in doing so, consider whether the
other information is materially inconsistent with the
Consolidated Financial Statements or our knowledge
. obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be
materially misstated.
When we read the Other Information if we conclude
that there is a material misstatement therein, we
, are required to communicate the matter to those
charged with governance and take appropriate actions
necessitated by the circumstances and the applicable
laws and regulations.
. Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged With
Governance for the Consolidated Financial Statements
7. The Bank’s management, Board of Directors are
responsible for the preparation of these Consolidated
Financial Statements that give a true and fair view of the
7. , consolidated financial position, consolidated financial
1949 29 - performance and consolidated cash flow of the Group
in accordance with the accounting principles generally
() accepted in India including the Accounting Standards
specified by the Institute of Chartered Accountants
() of India (ICAI) as applicable to banks, provision of
Section 29 of the Banking Regulation Act, 1949 and
,
the circulars and guidelines issued by Reserve Bank
, of India (“RBI”) from time to time. 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 judgements and estimate that are
reasonable and prudent; and design, implementation

whether due to fraud or error.
. In preparing the Consolidated Financial Statements,
the respective management and Board of Directors
of the entities included in the Group are responsible
for assessing the respective Group Entity’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 Board of Directors
, either intends to liquidate the Group Entity or to cease
operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Those Board of Directors’ of the Group Entities are
also responsible for overseeing the respective Group
. Entity’s financial reporting process.

Annual Report
2019-2020
- Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated
Financial Statements
8. Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance
8. about whether the Consolidated Financial Statements
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 Consolidated Financial Statements.
9. 9. As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise
professional judgment and maintain professional
scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
. :
a. Identify and assess the risks of material
. misstatement of the Consolidated Financial
, Statements, 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.
b. Obtain an understanding of internal control
.
relevant to the audit in order to design
audit procedures that are appropriate in the
, circumstances, but not for the purpose of
, expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the
Bank’s internal control.
.
c. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting
policies used and the reasonableness of
. accounting estimates and related disclosures
. made by management.
d. Conclude on the appropriateness of
management’s 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 Group Entity’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 Consolidated Financial
Statements 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 Group Entity’s to
. cease to continue as a going concern.
302
Consolidated Financial Statements
. , e. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure
and content of the Consolidated Financial
Statements, including the disclosures, and
whether the Consolidated Financial Statements
. represent the underlying transactions and events
in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
. f. Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence
/ regarding the financial results/financial
information of the entities within the Group and
. its associates to express an opinion on the
, Statement. We are responsible for the direction,
, supervision and performance of the audit of the
financial information of such entities included in
.
the Statement of which we are the independent
, , auditors. For the other entities included in the
, . Statement, which have been audited by other
. auditors, such other auditors remain responsible
for the direction, supervision and performance of
the audits carried out by them. We remain solely
responsible for our audit opinion
,
Materiality is the magnitude of the misstatement
. in the statement that, individually or in aggregate,
(i) makes it probable that the economic decisions of a
; (ii) reasonably knowledgeable user of the statement may
be influenced. We consider quantitative materiality and
() qualitative factors in; (i) planning the scope of our audit
work and evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) to
. evaluate the effects of any identified misstatements in
the Consolidated Financial Statement.
- 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.
From the matters communicated with those charged
with governance, we determine those matters that were
of most significance in the audit of the Consolidated
Financial Statements of the current period and are
therefore the key audit matters. We describe these
. matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation
precludes public disclosure about the matter or when,
in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that
a matter should not be communicated in our report
because the adverse consequences of doing so would
reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest
. benefits of such communication.
