ICICI Bank results Lower than Expected.
Monday, April 30, 2007ICICI Bank on Saturday posted lower-than-expected fourth-quarter earnings due to higher cost of funds. ICICI Bank’s net profit rose mere 4.45% to Rs 825.12 crore in the quarter ended March 2007, as against Rs 789.93 crore during the previous quarter ended March 2006. Total income for the bank rose 54.2% at Rs 8495 crore.
Concerns of equity dilution also weighed on the counter.

The exercise is expected to generate around Rs 20000 crore. The approval of shareholders will be sought by postal ballot, the private sector bank said.
