Market UpdateSection I
Slew of measures aided Domestic Equity and Debt market in FY21
Yields rose quarterly and annually, liquidity remained favourable
Repo rate was cut by 40 bps through the fiscal; latest repo rate stands at 4%
Liquidity injected through TLTRO (Targeted long-term repo operation) and surge in open market purchase of government securities
PLI (Production Linked Incentive) scheme introduced to lower inflation on import bill and boost domestic manufacturing sector
Subsidy support scheme launched to incentivise creation of new employment opportunities during COVID-19 recovery phase
PM Atmanirbhar Swasth Bharat Yojana launched with an outlay of about Rs. 64,180 crore spanning over 6 years
Provision created for an outlay of Rs. 20,000 crore each for recapitalisation of state-run banks and to set up Development Financial Institution (DFI)
Initiatives Proposed:
- Increasing the permissible limit for foreign direct investment from 49% to 74% in insurance companies and allowing foreign ownership and control with safeguards
- Creating permanent institutional framework to improve secondary market liquidity in corporate debt market
- Privatising two state-run banks and one general insurance company in FY22 apart from IDBI bank. Finance Minister announced IPO of LIC in FY22. Government estimates to raise Rs. 1.75 lakh crore from divestments in FY22
As on March 31, 2021, 10-yr benchmark yields rose 28 bps on quarterly basis, and 4 bps on yearly basis
The borrowing announced for FY22 was sharply higher than anticipated. Amidst the announcement, yields rose on quarterly basis. Rise in global crude oil prices and U.S. Treasury yields also held the market back
Yields rose on a yearly basis as retail inflation remained above the tolerance level of 6% for a prolonged period in FY21, lowering the prospects of further monetary easing by MPC. However, RBI purchasing government securities through OMOs limited the losses
Timely intervention by RBI made liquidity conditions favorable on quarterly and yearly basis

Nifty 50** movement over the year
Nifty 50** gained 105% QoQ, touching a record high on Feb 15, 2021
Union Budget announcements for FY22, encouraging GDP numbers for Q3FY21, upbeat economic growth projections, MPC stance and COVID-19 vaccination drive led to the upside in the quarter. However, the second wave of the pandemic weighed heavily on market sentiment
In FY21, markets posted their best performance in a decade as index surged 73% annually. They overcame massive odds – pandemic-induced lockdowns and never-before-seen business disruptions. Big stimulus measures supported gains

All major sectoral indices showed YoY gains vis-à-vis previous quarter
YoY Sectoral returns
The third quarter had seen four sectors post negative returns, which were made good in the fourth quarter
Nifty Metal TRI topped the chart, replacing Nifty Pharma TRI (on top for 3 quarters in a row) followed by Nifty Auto TRI and Nifty IT TRI. All three sectors’ returns were more than 100% in 1-year period
With elevated U.S. Treasury yields and hopes for a faster recovery of the U.S. economy, Gold values saw a quarterly decline. However, it grew annually in FY21 on the back of persisting concerns over the pandemic
Brent crude prices were at elevated levels over the quarter with low crude inventories in U.S. Gains were extended after Saudi Arabia unilaterally agreed to cut down on output over the next two months. However, apprehension over the pandemic continued to restrict gains. Brent crude also grew annually in FY21 in hope that OPEC and its allies would delay a planned increase in oil output
The rupee fell against the dollar during the quarter following consistent rise in U.S. Treasury yields and intervention by RBI through greenback purchases via state-run banks

FPI/FII MF
FPI (Foreign portfolio investors) bought domestic stocks worth Rs. 274,032 crore in FY21. The value was Rs. 6,152 crore in FY20. Ample liquidity in global markets and hopes of faster economic recovery drove the upside
Stimulus measures throughout the year and improvement in ease of access for FPIs attracted investment. For the same reason, mutual funds booked profits, triggering a massive pull out
The pace of investment by FPIs significantly tapered off in Q4FY21 (Rs. 55,741 crore) as against Q3FY21 (Rs. 141,914 crore), most likely because of spike in U.S. Treasury bond yields
Strong FPI inflows witnessed in equity markets in FY21

Mutual Funds invest in certain debt instruments with special features
like subordination to equity (absorbs losses before equity capital) and
/or convertible to equity upon trigger of a pre-specified event for loss
absorption. Additional Tier I bonds and Tier 2 bonds issued under
Basel III framework are some instruments that have these special
features. The debt instruments having such special features, (which
otherwise are Non-Convertible Debentures) may be treated as debt
instruments until converted to equity.
Further, presently there are no specified investment limits for these
instruments with special features and these instruments may be riskier
than other debt instruments. Therefore, following prudential
investment limits have been decided for such instruments.
i. No Mutual Fund under all its schemes shall own more than 10%
of such instruments issued by a single issuer.
ii. A Mutual Fund scheme shall not invest –
a) more than 10% of its NAV of the debt portfolio of the scheme
in such instruments; and
b) more than 5% of its NAV of the debt portfolio of the scheme
in such instruments issued by a single issuer.
These investment limit for a mutual fund scheme shall be within the
overall limit for debt instruments issued by a single issuer.

Investor Awareness
Trade Mechanism and Demat accounts
• Units of ETFs are usually bought and sold through a registered broker of a recognized stock exchange. To invest in ETFs an investor needs to have demat and trading account with a stock broker
• ETFs can be bought or sold from the exchange on a real-time basis. The price changes during the trading session. It will be similar to holding other shares and securities in demat account
• The price at which an ETF is traded is based on the NAV of the underlying stocks that it represents
• There are buyers and sellers and the price is determined based on the demand and supply. Every ETF will be assigned a unique ISIN number and the investor can therefore hold these ETFs in the demat account
• Index funds’ units can be sold at end-of-day NAVs. To invest in index Funds, investors do not need demat account. Instead, they can maintain the investment in index funds through the investor folios with mutual fund
Struggling to choose? Here are some pointers to note!
• Index funds invest in stocks imitating a stock market index like the NSE Nifty, BSE Sensex, etc.
• These are passively managed funds wherein the fund manager does not play an active role in selecting industries and stocks to build the portfolio
• It invests in the same securities as present in the underlying index in the same proportion.
• However, the fund manager needs to ensure that the tracking error is minimum
Trading Process ETF units can be sold at real-time NAVs prevailing - So investor can trade ETFs intra-day too, just like stocks
Index fund units can be sold at end-of-day NAVs
Expense Ratio Low High
SIP facility No SIP facility as the investor does not deal with the fund but a counterparty in ETFs
Offers SIP facility
Option availability ETFs have only the dividend option, and the investor has to necessarily receive dividend in their bank account and reinvest themselves manually
*It is the investors’ choice:
An experienced investor who likes trading might consider ETFs. Meanwhile, the rest could opt for index funds
Available with growth option with automatic reinvestment of dividends
• Unlike regular Mutual Funds, an ETF (Exchange Traded
Fund) trades like a common stock on a stock exchange
• It tracks indices such as CNX Nifty or BSE Sensex, etc.
• ETFs enable investors to gain broad exposure to the stock market of different countries or specific sectors or themes on a real-time basis
Exchange Traded Fund Index Funds

Riskometer
The old risk-o-meter had 5 levels of risks
The new risk-o-meter now has 6 levels of risks
Investors understand that their principalwill be at Very High Risk
ICRA Analytics helps rollout the new Risk-o-Meter
As one of the market leaders in the mutual fund research and analytics in India, we at ICRA Analytics are proud to partner with the Asset Management Companies (AMCs) of SEBI registered mutual funds under the aegis of Association of Mutual Funds in India (AMFI) in implementing the new Risk-o-meter mandated by SEBI, vide SEBI circular no. SEBI/HO/IMD/DF3/CIR/P/2020/197 dated October 5, 2020, based on recommendations made by the Mutual Fund Advisory Committee (MFAC).
The Risk-o-meter will now assess Mutual Funds at six levels of risk instead of five levels mandated previously. With this revision, the ‘Moderately Low’ risk category has been renamed as ‘Low to Moderate’ and a new risk category ‘Very High’ has been added. Under the revised regulatory guidelines, AMCs will have to update the Risk-o-meter on their respective websites within the first 10 days of every month. On March 31 each year, AMCs will disclose the number of times the risk level has changed over the year. The new Risk-o-meter will feature on AMC websites, Annual Reports and Abridged summary. It will also be updated on the AMFI website.
Under the guidance of the AMFI Working Committee, ICRA Analytics enabled the Mutual Fund industry risk score over 1700 funds. With our proven experience in mutual fund research spanning over two decades and prowess in IT and data processing, we were able to deliver results well within the regulatory timeline. The first batch of the dynamic Risk-o-meter was rolled out in early January 2021.
