...._________ (Name of the Company) for the period ended ____. This statement is the responsibility of the Company's Management and has been approved by the Board of Directors/committee of Board of Directors. Our responsibility is to issue a report on these financial statements based on our review. We conducted our review in accordance with the Standard on Review Engagement (SRE) 2400, Engagements to Review Financial Statements issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. This standard requires that we plan and perform the review to obtain moderate assurance as to whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. A review is limited primarily to inquiries of company personnel and analytical procedures applied to financial data and thus provides less assurance than an audit. We have not performed an audit and accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion. In the conduct of our Review we have relied on the review reports in respect of nonperforming assets received from concurrent auditors of _________ branches, inspection teams of the bank of _______ branches and other firms of auditors of _________ branches specifically appointed for this purpose.
