Notes:-

1.        As a prudent policy, the Bank holds provisions for NPAs and Standard
Assets over and above the minimum required under the RBI norms. The said
provisions have not been utilised for provision required for the above period.

2.        Provisions for standard assets and also for gratuity, pension, bonus,
income-tax including deferred tax and fringe benefit tax and other usual and
necessary items have been made on estimated basis.

3.         'Payments to and Provisions for employees' include a sum of Rs.15.30
crore being the provision made under revised Accounting Standard 15 (AS-15) on '
Employee Benefits' issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India.
The said sum has been debited to the Profit & Loss Account in the quarter ended
September 2006 instead of  adjusting against the opening balance of Revenue
Reserves & Surplus as per the said standard.

4.        As per the Scheme of amalgamation notified by the Central Government
and communicated by RBI, The Ganesh Bank of Kurundwad Ltd has been amalgamated
with the Bank with effect from 2 September 2006. Pending completion of audit and
the certification of the Balance Sheet and other statements by the Auditors, the
working results of the said Bank have not been considered in the above
statement.

5.        Reconciliation/adjustment of outstanding entries in Inter branch/
Office transactions is in progress. In the opinion of the Bank, consequential
effect of the same on the revenue/assets/liabilities is not likely to be
material.

and has received 37 complaints during the quarter.  All these complaints were
disposed of and  there  are no complaints  pending as on 31 December 2006.

central auditors, have been taken on record by the Board of Directors at its
meeting  held on 25 January 2007.

its net profit every year towards the marked to market losses in the investments
held in the HTM category. After appropriating Rs.9.67 crore during the period
Bank holds Rs.166.34 crore under its Investment Fluctuation Reserve.
