ICICI Bank continues to be our
top pick as we believe that the underlying conditions provide a favourable
testing ground for the bank to differentiate itself in relation to its key
peers. A strong liability profile, better asset mix, slower growth and healthy
CAR could make ICICI Bank well-positioned to come through this challenging
period with a relatively lower degree of stress.It maintains the positive view
on ICICI Bank and that the recent price correction offers another attractive
entry point into the stock.
