India GDP Growth
The Indian economy, against the backdrop of declining global commodity prices, subdued
growth, volatile financial market and fluctuating exchange rate, showed resilience and
continued its growth. It gained momentum at the end of the fiscal year as it grew by 7.9 per
cent in March quarter backed by the farm and manufacturing sector which grew by 2.3 and 9.3
percent respectively, to consolidate India's position as the fastest growing major economy with
a five-year high growth rate of 7.6 per cent for the full fiscal.
Sectoral Returns
The Index of Industrial Production (IIP) reduced from 2.8 per cent last year to 2.3 per showing
that factory output continued to fall primarily because of below par performance of the mining
sector and a decline in production of capital goods by 2.9% (Source:IBEF.org). The industry
groups like electrical machinery, basic metal, food products and beverages, machinery and
equipment pulled down the growth of manufacturing sector by 1.2%. Even the stock market
NIFTY saw a decline due to the unrest in global markets especially due to the fall in the Chinese
equity and fall in the exports of India.
Performance of Rupee:
Rupee saw a decline in the FY 2015-16 and was at its lowest in 3 years since September 2013
due to global economic slowdown, with China devaluing Yuan affecting all the markets around
the world, decrease in the fall of crude oil as US would be spending less on crude, further
strengthening Dollar. Further, India’s exports contracted for straight 17 months which also had a
downward effect on the rupee.
FDI Inflows
Government's effort to improve ease of doing business and relaxation in FDI norms across
sectors such as defense, PSU oil refineries, telecom etc. are yielding results as India received $40
billion in FDI with services sector attracting the highest FDI equity inflow of US$ 6.9 billion,
followed by the computer hardware and software sector (US$ 5.9 billion). Singapore at US$
13.69 billion, followed by Mauritius (US$ 8.35 billion), USA (US$ 4.19 billion), Netherlands (US$
2.64 billion) and Japan (US$ 2.61 billion) were the largest source of FDI in India.
Imports & Exports
This year was one of the hardest for Indian exports. Export to all major exporting destination like
Saudi Arabia, China, US and Singapore shrunk. Merchandise exports showed an unprecedented
year-on-year decline of 17.2% attributed to decline in commodity prices and sluggishness in the
Chinese economy, besides a global slowdown. India’s export destinations The cumulative
exports for FY16 stood at a five-year low of $261 billion. Manufactured goods, with the highest
share in exports, have fallen by 8.0% due to the decline in the exports of iron and steel by 36.5%
(Source: CMIE). Petroleum and crude oil products too have had a detrimental effect as their
export diminished by 49.4%.

Q4 FY 15
REVIEW
Macroeconomic Outlook Q4 16
India’s imports were no different as they declined by 15.3 per cent against last year to $379
billion. Import of petroleum crude and products contracted by a whopping 40.52% owing to
slide in the crude oil prices in the international market. Imports from China, with the largest
share of imports and Saudi Arabia, the major oil seller to India, have declined too. The levels of
exports are the lowest since 2010-11. However, the decline in imports has been steeper as
compared to the drop in exports, thereby decreasing the trade deficit to a record low of $5
billion.
Inflation
Inflation saw a sharp decline for a brief period owing to a decline in global crude oil and
commodity prices, sluggish domestic demand conditions and softening food inflation. Of these,
the biggest contributor to the decline in the consumer price inflation (CPI) was food prices. But
while nearly all food components saw a decline in inflation, pulses inflation saw the sharpest
spike in a decade. Fast-tracking solutions to improve agriculture yields, and reducing the
stickiness in non-food inflation are the two challenges facing the RBI's medium-term inflation
target of 4%. Some of the factors that have supported the decline in food inflation are more
likely to have a transitory effect and the impact could wane, going forward.
Unemployment
The Modi government has been proactive in trying to find ways to reduce unemployment by
launching several schemes such as Skill India to match the needs of the market to the skills of
the people. It is also trying to generate employment by establishing an entrepreneurial culture
and providing digital infrastructure to empower people and help them in being the part of
solution to solve the problem of unemployment.
Forex Reserve
India’s foreign reserves touched USD 360 billion by end of March 2016, which is only USD 18
billion over the previous year’s level. Hard dollar mop-up was only USD 10.2 billion in the
financial year. This is in part due to central bank having to draw upon the reserves buffer to
contain rupee volatility and slow the unit’s one-sided descent in times of extreme external
volatility.
Future Outlook
With the global economy still struggling in the aftermath of the global financial crisis of 2008, the
Indian economy has emerged as one of the bright spots. An accommodative FDI policy, stable
monetary and fiscal policy and continuous effort by the government towards improving India’s
ease of doing business rankings can establish India as the next manufacturing hub. The economy
is expected to grow by at least 7.5 % for the next 5 years reach US $5 trillion (current market
price) by 2022. Implementation of GST itself can increase the economic growth by 1-2%. The skill
development programs along with digitalization and start up schemes will generate new
avenues for employment and provide the necessary skills to people which would further propel
India’s growth.

Introduction
The Indian automobile industry is one of the largest markets in the world and accounts for more
than 7% of the country’s GDP. In the previous financial year, more than 30% of the small cars
globally sold were made in India. The leading segment is Two-Wheelers with more than 80% of
the market share. India also exports significantly with a YOY growth of over 18%. The
Government of India approved 100% Foreign Direct Investment in this sector under the
automatic route which is expected to further boost the sector.
Recent Sector Developments
The automobile sector attracted Foreign Direct Investments worth US$14.32 billion during a
fifteen-year period between 2000 and 2015. Keeping in mind the growing demand, several
automobile manufacturers have invested heavily in the last year. Listed below are some of the
major initiatives undertaken by the Government of India to further promote this sector and also
some of the major investments by private players.
With the Make in India initiative, the Government plans to make manufacturing a critical
component of national economy and growth. This was highlighted in the Auto Mission Plan
(AMP) 2016-26 as the passenger vehicle market is expected to triple to 9.4 million units in a
decade
The Union Minister of Road Transport, Highways & Shipping recently announced plans of
setting up an independent Department of Transport which would comprise industry experts
to quickly resolve disputes and issues relating to various specifications, standards in
addition to exports
To further boost the adoption of environment friendly vehicles vis-à-vis Hybrid, Electric and
CNG based, the Government has formulated a scheme under the National Electric Mobility
Mission 2020
Automotive major Ford has plans to manufacture engine families in India by 2017 which will
be powering 270,000 vehicles globally thus increasing India’s visibility in this sector
Honda Motorcycle and Scooter India (HMSI) opened the world’s largest scooter
manufacturing plant in Gujarat with the option to scale up production to 1.2million units
per annum by 2016
General Motors hopes to invest $1 billion by 2020 to increase the production capacity of its
Maharashtra plant from 130,000 to 220,000 units per annum
Various other global automobile manufacturers such as Mercedes Benz, Isuzu, MV August
among others have plans to or already have invested in India to set up assembly units,
capacity augmentation plans, and R&D
Future Outlook
The Indian Automobile industry has a bright future going ahead with not just the domestic
demand going up but also international market participation and penetration going higher
This sector has the potential to generate a staggering 65 million jobs and over US$ 300
billion in revenues within the next decade thus contributing more than 12% to the country’s
gross domestic product
There is a great scope for divesting from a conventional fuel only manufacturing industry to
one based on alternative fuels which in turn help in creating novel avenues for growth and
some much needed innovation in the country

AUTOMOBILE Q4 16
STOCK RECOMMENDATION: HERO MOTOCORP LTD. - BUY
Hero ended the previous financial year consolidating a 39% market share in the domestic two wheeler market
Benefited from the low commodity prices during the global slump, Hero achieved its highest profit of Rs 3,132 crore in FY16
and margins near 16%
In spite of the subdued volume and weak presence in popular scooter segment, investors still bet heavily on the company
driving the stock price to a new high in the past fortnight
The prospect of a good monsoon could trigger a revival in the subdued rural market. This is particularly good news for Hero as
one in every two motorcycles sold in rural market is by Hero
Hero is launching its first in-house development in motorcycles, Splendor iSmart110 after a gap of five years since its split
with Japanese maker Honda
Hero’s manufacturing facility in Colombia became operational in September last year and the facility in Bangladesh will start
production in this year
The company has paid dividends twice during the financial year 2015-16 adding to a better investor sentiment
We recommend a buy at the current price level of Rs.3200 with a target of Rs.3800 for one year

Introduction
The Indian banking system consists of 26 public sector banks, 20 private sector banks, 43 foreign
banks, 56 regional rural banks, 1,589 urban cooperative banks and 93,550 rural cooperative
banks, in addition to cooperative credit institutions. The Indian banking sector’s assets reached
US$ 1.8 trillion in the end of FY14 from US$ 1.3 trillion in FY10, with 70 per cent of it being
accounted by the public sector. As per the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), India’s banking sector is
sufficiently capitalized, well-regulated and money supply and deposits are growing. The financial
and economic conditions in the country are far superior to any other country in the world.
Credit, market and liquidity risk studies suggest that Indian banks are generally resilient and
have withstood the global downturn well. Indian banking industry has recently witnessed the
roll out of innovative banking models like payments and small finance banks. As per as a BCG
report, the Indian Banking sector has the potential to become the third largest by 2025.
Recent Sector Developments
The Indian Government is considering merging the 26 public sector banks into 6 mega
lenders.
To reduce the burden of loan repayment on farmers, a provision of ₹ 15,000 crores (US$ 2.2
billion) has been made in the Union Budget 2016-17 towards interest subvention.
The RBI has given in-principle approval to 11 applicants to establish payment banks. These
banks can accept deposits and remittances, but are not allowed to extend any loans.
India’s first small finance bank called the Capital Small Finance Bank has started its
operations by launching 10 branch offices in Punjab, and aims to increase the number of
branches to 29 in the current FY 2016-17.
Lok Capital, a private equity investor backed by US-based non-profit organization
Rockefeller Foundation, plans to invest up to US$ 15 million in two proposed small finance
banks in India over the next one year.
Growth Drivers
Ministry of Finance has planned to inject ₹5,000 crores (US$ 734 million) in eight public
sector banks in order to boost their capital.
India's largest public sector bank, State Bank of India (SBI), has opened its first branch
dedicated to serving start-up companies, in Bengaluru.
Global rating agency Moody's has upgraded its outlook for the Indian banking system to
stable from negative based on its assessment of five drivers including improvement in
operating environment and stable asset risk and capital scenario.
Future Outlook
Indian banks are increasingly focusing on adopting integrated approach to risk management.
Banks have already embraced the international banking supervision accord of Basel II. According
to RBI, majority of the banks already meet capital requirements of Basel III, which has a deadline
of March 31, 2019. Most of the banks have put in place the framework for asset-liability match,
credit and derivatives risk management. Although in the short term the banks are continued to
be plagued by the bad debt and Non-performing assets, it will be the fifth largest banking
industry in the world in 2020, according to a KPMG report.

REVIEW
BANKING Q4 16
STOCK RECOMMENDATION: HDFC - BUY.
Source: moneycontrol.com
1. Earnings per Share: -
HDFC has relatively high Earnings Per Share(EPS), as it has one of the lowest NPAs. This will ensure greater profitability of HDFC in the
future, which will make it an attractive target for investors when it will have to raise capital to adhere to Basel III norms
2. Return on Equity: -
This parameter is of paramount interest to international investors. Among the top five banks, HDFC has the highest return on equity
of more than 20%, which is more than 25% than its nearest competitor.
3. Net profit per share: -
Among the competitors HDFC has the highest net profit per share. Its value, around 50 is significantly higher than that of others,
which are around 10-20.
4. Price to Earnings Ratio: -
Valued a bit on the higher side as compared to the SENSEX or the CNX Nifty, it has P/E ratio of 28 for the quarter, making it a healthy
banking organization. Fundamentals are strong, and one could see a high growth for the company ahead.
5. Capital Adequacy Ratio: -
It has a capital adequacy ratio of around 17, which although is comparable to other private sector banks, but is far greater as
compared to public sector banks, which are languishing at around 9-12%.
6. Miscellaneous: -
While the above factors do demonstrate a solid growth for HDFC, other factors like high holding value returns, year on year growth of
20%, and the fact it is the largest bank in the third largest economy of the world, with the nearest competitor at half of its market
capitalization, and still a private entity with lowest percentage of non-performing assets does boost its credibility among the
investors. Also it is the most highly rated by analysts, as 93% of them tracked by Bloomberg have a buy rating on the stock.

After the 2008 financial crisis, there is no other question in finance world that has raised more curiosity among investing class than “Negative Interest Rates”. The interest rate which has been lowered into the negative territory by the policy makers is the most basic rate in any economy is the rate at which the central bank will be lending electronic cash to a commercial bank on an overnight basis, the interest that the commercial bank needs to pay to the Central Bank on the money borrowed is based on this interest rate. This is one of the basic tools, which any central bank has to control the monetary policy or the money supply in the economy. In any economy all functioning commercial banks have accounts with the Central Bank. So, when a Commercial Bank borrows money from the Central Bank it has to pay interest in return. If any commercial bank has excess reserves it will be paid an interest in return by the Central Bank, which makes perfect sense, but when this situation reverses and the commercial bank has to pay to the Central Bank to park excess reserves, we witness a situation of Negative Interest Rates. Many Central Banks including Sweden, Switzerland, Denmark, ECB and recently BOJ have slipping their interest rates into red. The logical question, which arises here, is that how come banks have so much excess reserves lying with them. The answer to this question is Quantitative Easing (QE). Many central bankers deployed QE as a monitory tool after the 2008 crisis, latest by European Central Bank (ECB) and Bank of JAPAN (BOJ). Quantitative Easing is a large-scale bond buying open market operation by the Central Bank. But the focus remains how does a Central Bank implements negative interest rates in the system.. Central Bank makes the electronic balances in those accounts shrink, which is witnessed by a deposit of €10,000 today becoming €9,999.92 tomorrow. The impact of such a negative rate is that it pushes down short-term rates, which provides an economic boost by expanding credit and results in weakening the currency of the economy. The short-term interest rates actually go down because when the Central Bank cuts the overnight interest rates, these overnight rates drag down other rates: the rate one bank will pay another for a one-month loan, a three-month loan and a one-year loan and so on. Negative rates also spur banks and other investors to buy - short-term government’s debt and this drags down the yields on these government bonds. Rates for financing in the capital markets – i.e. a company sets its yields bonds to investors—are linked to the yields on government debt considering this insight all other things being equal, they go down when government-debt yields go down. The effect of negative interest rates on the economy has not been very convincing, there haven’t been sharp turnarounds in the countries that have tried negative rates and it is yet to be seen that strong economic benefits can be achieved using negative interest rates. Negative Interest Rates heavily affect banks profitability for a simple reason that they can’t charge their customers a negative rate for keeping cash with them as investors might prefer to keep cash rather, keeping cash is like depositing money at 0% rate but it is still better than losing money with a negative rate. This affects banks primary business of lending and borrowing money. In theory, negative interest rates should be able to reduce borrowing costs for companies and households and drive-up demand for loans and credit. In reality, the risk involved with it can have serious repercussions. If banks make more customers pay to hold their money, that cash could well go under the mattress, robbing the banks of a crucial source of funding and perhaps even triggering a bank run. Even if that doesn't happen, when banks absorbs the costs of negative rates on their profit and loss, it decreases the profitability, and might make them even less willing to lend. Two years into the experiment, it is still too early to say with surety if negative interest rates will work, If more central banks use negative rates as a stimulus tool, the policy might ultimately lead to a currency war of competitive devaluations.

Introduction
Financial services consist of banking institutes, non-banking financial institutes, mutual funds
(MFs), pension funds, and insurance companies etc. which conduct financial transactions. With
SEBI announcing various measures aimed at increasing penetration and strengthening

India’s pension sector has a potential to cross US $1 trillion by 2025. If we look more closely at
insurance sector in India, it is the biggest insurance market in the world and is a very
appropriate place to invest in the forthcoming years. Last year, the cap of FDI in insurance sector
has been moved from 26% to 49%. According to ASSOCHAM, over 12,000 crores of investments
are ready to flow into India’s insurance sector in 2016.

Future Outlook
Unified Payments Interface (UPI) which was launched in April 2016 aims at cashless India by making use of Aadhar and biometrics technology. If we can make people realize the ease in going cashless a huge surge in growth of financial services sector can be witnessed.
With implementation of seventh pay commission recommendations and start up economy growth, savings in middle class families will rise. Attracting these savings towards mutual funds and insurances will give a boost to financial services sector in future.

Introduction
FMCG is the 4th largest sector in the India economy which has grown at 11 percent over the last decade and is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.7% touching US$110.4 billion in revenues by the year 2020. The rural FMCG market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 17.7 % to US $100 billion by 2025 which is way above the industry average growth rate of 14.7%.Food products are the leading in this segment, accounting for 47 percent of the overall market followed by Personal care and fabric care which account for 22 percent and 16 percent market share respectively. The Indian growth story is based on a consumption based model wherein consumption accounts for 57% of the GDP, in this regard FMCG sector contributes a large share in the Indian growth story. Around two third of the total revenue is generated from urban population and rest is generated from rural population, with urban market reaching a matured stage most of the revenue growth is expected to come from increase in rural demand. Growing awareness, easier access, and changing lifestyles have been the key growth drivers for the consumer market.
Recent Sector Developments The Government of India's policies and regulatory frameworks such as relaxation of license
rules and approval of 51 per cent foreign direct investment (FDI) in multi-brand and 100 per cent in single-brand retail are some of the major growth drivers for the consumer market.
The trends in recent monsoon forecast predict rainfall to be above average (106% of long term
average). This is going to have a direct impact on the rural income, driving sales which would
have a positive impact on the topline of FMCG companies.
The Indian economy is the fastest growing large economy in the world and it is expected to grow at a rate of 7.5% (as per the predictions of IMF). A blossoming economy with increased employment rate and increased disposable income has resulted in a shift in the purchasing trend of consumers from essential to premium products. In response, firms have started enhancing their premium products portfolio.
Future Outlook The prospects of passing of GST seem to be bright with 5 hours of dedicated discussion on the
intricacies of the bill in the monsoon session of parliament. The sheer efficiency of the GST
which if designed in such a way that credit does not stick to the business but is passed on to the
value chain would benefit the FMCG industry.
The FMCG sector as a whole is keenly looking out for the proposed GST rate, if they are too high
then they would have to be passed on the consumers which might lead to demand erosion.
– DABUR CEO, Sunil Duggal
In last year's Budget, the NREGA allocation was increased by Rs 5,000 crore. A higher increase
in the current Budget will be especially useful for rural consumption. Acceleration and clear
roadmap on the Direct Benefits Transfer programme will also be helpful in putting disposable
cash in the hands of the rural poor, which can aid bottom-of-the-pyramid consumption.
Implementation of the Pay Commission report and one rank one pension will increase the
disposable income of the consumers this can lead to a strong surge in urban consumption spend
increasing FMCG sales.
In the last Budget, it was announced that there will be a reduction in corporate tax over the
next four years, from 30 per cent to 25 per cent, which is a positive for FMCG companies paying
close to peak tax and will compensate in some cases where indirect tax exemptions are going
away.
The government is looking for doubling of farmers income by 2020, in this regard a slew of
reforms have been initiated like increasing the minimum support prize, insuring crops at a low
premium under the Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana, issuing of soil health card and increased
spending on Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sichai Yojna. This can have a cascading effect on increase in
rural demand.

IT & ITES Q4 FY 16
Overview
India is the world's largest source for the information technology (IT) industry, accounting for approximately 67 per cent of the US$ 124-130 billion market. The industry employs about 10 million workforces. India's cost competitiveness in providing IT services, which is approximately 3-4 times cheaper than the US, continues to be the mainstay of its Unique Selling Proposition (USP) in the global sourcing market. The IT industry has also created significant demand in the Indian education sector, especially for engineering and computer science. The Indian IT and ITeS industry is divided into four major segments – IT services, Business Process Management (BPM), software products and engineering services, and hardware. IT-BPM sector which is currently valued at US$ 143 billion is expected to grow at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 8.3 per cent year-on-year to US$ 143 billion for 2015-16. The sector is expected to contribute 9.5 per cent of India’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and more than 45 per cent in total services export in 2015-16. Recent Sector Developments
The Government of India has launched the Digital India program to provide several government services to the people using IT and to integrate the government departments and the people of India.
India and the US have agreed to jointly explore opportunities for collaboration on implementing India's ambitious Rs 1.13 trillion (US$ 16.58 billion) ‘Digital India Initiative’.
The Government of Telangana has begun construction of a technology incubator in Hyderabad—dubbed T-Hub—to reposition the city as a technology destination.
Apple Inc. plans to set up its first technology development centre outside the US in Hyderabad with an investment of US$ 25 million, which is expected to create 4,500 jobs
Future Outlook
India is the topmost offshoring destination for IT companies across the world.Having
proven its capabilities in delivering both on-shore and off-shore services to global
clients, emerging technologies now offer an entire new gamut of opportunities for top
IT firms in India. Social, Mobility, Analytics and Cloud (SMAC) are collectively expected
to offer a US$ 1 trillion opportunity. Cloud represents the largest opportunity under
SMAC, increasing at a CAGR of approximately 30 per cent to around US$ 650-700
billion by 2020. The social media is the second most lucrative segment for IT firms,
offering a US$ 250 billion market opportunity by 2020. The Indian e-commerce
segment is US$ 12 billion in size and is witnessing strong growth and thereby offers
another attractive avenue for IT companies to develop products and services to cater
to the high growth consumer segment.

BLOCKCHAIN: A NEW DISRUPTION? By Harshita Solanki, IIFT, 2015-17
Since the past few years, there has been a lot of buzz surrounding the word “Bitcoin”, as it gained traction in the international
community as an alternate mode of transacting between parties. However, with the news of Mt. Gox falling and the silk route
trade, people became a bit sceptical over the usage of this currency and slowly we saw their focus shifting from bitcoin towards
the underlying technology behind it – what is called blockchain.
Let us first understand what blockchain is. Simply speaking, it is a method of storing a large data set in blocks, with every block
containing a fixed number of entries and each block is timestamped and linked to the previous block to form a chain of
transactions. In this way it forms a digital ledger of transactions. It also has the following attributes which differentiates it from the
rest –
(Source: The Wall Street Journal)
Distributed ledger – All the participants in a network (also referred to as nodes) can share this digital ledger among
themselves. Anytime a change occurs in the ledger all the nodes are informed about it
Secure – Blockchain uses complex cryptography to ensure that the data entered is not tempered with. Also, once a data
is entered into a blockchain it is extremely difficult to change or remove it
No need for central authority – For any transaction that happens, all the nodes in the network, which have copies of the
existing blockchain, have to evaluate and verify the transaction. Once it is approved, only then is the transaction added to
the blockchain. This process makes the requirement of a central authority to validate the transactions redundant
Public/Private – There are different type of blockchains prevalent today. Bitcoin, for example was a public and permission
less ledger, which means that anyone can view the blockchain and make contributions to it. On the other hand we also
have permissioned blockchains, where only few people are allowed to access the blockchain
Consensus mechanism – For every blockchain, there are a set of rules called consensus mechanism, which are used to
verify and agree on a transaction, For bitcoin blockchain, the mechanism used was called “proof-of-work”, where people
called “miners” used to run complex algorithms using cryptography and significant computing power to verify the
transactions. In return the miners get fixed number of bitcoins for their effort and time. This method might be different
for permissioned blockchains
20
Blockchain certainly has a lot of unique features to offer but why is it being talked about so much? The answer to that question
lies in one simple offering of blockchain – removing the need of an intermediary for validating transactions. Think about it,
anytime you want to enter into a transaction, you need some party to verify that the party on the other side has enough
resources to complete the transaction and vice versa. The third party could be banks, clearing houses, trusted middlemen,
payment websites (like Paytm etc.), and the government and so on, the list is huge. Now imagine that this complex web has found
a substitute – a decentralized mechanism where everyone knows what is happening and can verify the party that you are
transacting with, blockchain is essentially making this possible.
People sometimes use the terms bitcoin and blockchain interchangeably, but these two means very different things. Bitcoin was
one application using blockchain, we now days see alternate use of blockchain as well – altcoins being one of them.
Another misconception that people have is that the only industry getting affected by blockchain will be the financial industry.
While it is true that the financial space will face significant impact, a lot of other industries are also projected to see a lot of
changes with the coming of blockchain. A brief description of the same –
Banks and financial services - With the clear threat of blockchain to industries such as clearing houses, it is no surprise
that banks and financial institutions are the first one to invest in studying this technology (more than $1 billion), forming
consortiums (such as R3) and investing in blockchain start-ups (Nasdaq Inc., Citi Ventures, Visa Inc. and others put $30
million last September into Chain Inc.) to have the first mover advantage. It has been predicted that this technology can
have a cost savings of up to $20 billion for the financial industry by 2020, as per an analysis done by Santander
InnoVentures
Art and Diamonds – It is difficult sometimes to establish ownership when it comes to expensive items – such as art,
antiquities and diamonds. Fraud usually occurs in the entire documentation process, and this problem is being addressed
using blockchain. Allianz Accelerator, is working with a blockchain start-up to generate a serial number for each diamond
and track its movement from the mine till the time the diamonds are sold. This helps in generating an ownership history
for every diamond and this information could also be checked by the authorities as well as the buyer
Media business – Companies are using blockchain to form “smart contracts”, which are agreements which are set to
execute themselves, given that certain conditions are met. News companies can use it to ensure that a reader pays for
the news he/she reads and could also be used to prevent the widespread piracy in the music industry. As an example,
Imogen Heap released a new single album using a music blockchain.
Pharma and Health – Here blockchain is used to ensure that an individual’s records remain secure, also people can select
which personal data they want their doctor to see, some doctors have said that in future this data may be traded like
money. Pharma companies on the other hands, can track their products across their supply chain and ensure that the
products are not tempered with
Food and Drink – Farmers can use blockchain to monitor the growth of their crops, right till they are harvested and
transported. Another example is Coca –Cola which is working with a blockchain start-up to monitor vending machines
and making them cashless
Insurance - Some insurance companies are working with blockchain to make the process of processing and handling
claims efficient by monitoring each stage, also we might be seeing new, innovative insurance models coming up in the
future.
21
All the above examples are a testimony to the fact that blockchain has the potential to change the world around us, which is why
this technology revolution is getting compared to the 1994’s – when internet came into being. Though blockchain is facing its own
set of challenges, the prominent among them being that it is the Wild West, no proper regulatory framework has been established
around this technology, although various governments have started to research and understand this technology. Also, a lot of
consensus building will be required among the different stakeholders, all of which have their own systems in place, if they all are
to be convinced to come aboard a common platform. Security and privacy issues will also be present, especially in the financial
sector and the details need to be worked out for the same.
But the challenges aside, blockchain offers us a platform where we can bring a change in a lot of processes happening on a day to
day basis, cutting down costs and improving efficiencies. It will be exciting to see what all changes this technology brings and how
it shapes our future going ahead.

Introduction
Over the years, much has been said about India’s demographic dividend. Add to the fact that its vast population is in constant need of entertainment, be it any form, shape or size, and you find that the Media Industry in India generates revenue in spades. In India, the Media industry is estimated toorth over $17 billion in 2014. Growth rate is being touted at an immense 13.98% CAGR during 2014-18, taking the entire industry to $3.7 billion by the end of 2018. India’s broadcasting industries is one of the most expansive in the world, with 800 satellite television channels and around 250 FM channeled ls. The Indian film industry, which now allows 100% FDI, generated revenues of $2.24 billion in 2014 and chu out more than 1,600 films in the same year
Recent Sector Developments/Growth Drivers
Introduction of the GST would address the issue of cascading and dual taxation impact on Indian media industry as suggested in a recent report published by Deloitte.
The Government of India has increased FDI limit from 74 per cent to 100 per cent in cable and DTH satellite platforms.
The customs duty on wood in chips or particles for manufacture of paper, paperboard and newsprint has been reduced to 0 percent from 5 per cent.
Approval of the model Shops and Establishment Act, aimed at generating employment prospects by allowing cinema halls, restaurants, shops, banks and other such workplaces to remain open round the clock.
Initiatives such as digitising the cable distribution sector to attract greater institutional funding and granting industry status to the film industry for easy access to institutional finance.
Approval for Audio-Visual Co-Production Agreement between India and the Republic of Korea and to complete internal ratification procedure. Cooperation between the film industries of the two countries will not only promote export of Indian films but would also act as a catalyst towards creating awareness about India and its culture.
The radio industry after the Phase III auction of 839 radio channels in 294 cities, is expected to bring in an estimated US$ 390 million in revenue to the government. With over 800 frequencies up for auction in third- and fourth-tier towns, radio is likely to match the reach of print.
Future Outlook
The revenue from advertising is expected to grow at a CAGR of 13 per cent and will exceed Rs 81,600 crore in 2019 from Rs 41,400 crore (US$ 6.14 billion) in 2014.
Internet access has surpassed the print segment as the second-largest segment contributing to the overall pie of M&E industry revenues.
Television and print are expected to remain the largest contributors to the advertising pie in 2018 as well. Internet advertising will emerge as the third-largest segment, with a share of about 16 per cent in the total M&E advertising pie.
The film segment which contributed Rs 12,640 crore in 2014 is projected to grow steadily at a CAGR of 10 per cent on the back of higher domestic and overseas box-office collections as well as cable and satellite rights.
Digital advertising is expected to lead the CAGR with 30.2 per cent, followed by radio with 18.1 per cent.
Animation and VFX, and television are expected to register a CAGR of 16.3 per cent and 15.5 per cent respectively, followed by growth rates of gaming (14.3 per cent), music (14.0 per cent), films (10 per cent) and OOH with 9.8 per cent expected CAGR.

Q4 operational performance above estimate:
EBITDA grew 53% year on year, and beat analyst estimates by
17% due to higher revenues from advertising. However, Zee’s
PAT margins failed to fully capitalize on the gain due to higher
depreciation.
Subscription Revenue:
Reported revenue grew 16% year on year to Rs. 1530 crores.
Almost 30% of year on year ad revenue growth was one of the
main factors for the boost in revenue. Subscription revenue
grew by 16% year on year to a little under Rs. 600 crore. Out of
this, domestic revenue contributed Rs. 490 crore and
international revenue contributed Rs. 110 crore. However,
international revenue experienced higher growth rate of 35%
as opposed to domestic growth rate of 15%.
Advertisement Revenue: Advertisement growth was mainly a function of market share
gains. International ad revenue grew by 40% from the previous
quarter to Rs. 110 crore.
Increased International Focus: Zee Entertainment appointed Mr. Amit Goenka as the CEO of
its International Broadcast Business. Since then, Zee has
significantly increased focus on the international front. It
launched Zee.One, a dedicated Bollywood movie channel in
Germany. It also launched an ad-based video on demand
platform OZEE during the last quarter of FY 2015-16. It also
launched a movie channel in Philippines.
Conclusion: During the year, sports losses are expected to increase slightly,
due to greater number of India cricket days. However, strong
ad growth is expected to continue due to increase in number
of viewers gained.

Introduction
India is the third-largest steel producer in the world. In FY 2015-16, India produced 91.46
million tonnes (MT) of finished steel. India imported 9.32 MT of steel while exported 5.59 MT.
During FY 11-15, import of steel grew at a compounded annual rate of 9.01 per cent, whereas,
exports increased at a CAGR of 11.32 percent. In FY 2015-16, the consumption of finished steel
grew to 76.99 MT while the CAGR increased to 5.74 per cent during FY 08-15. The steel sector
contributes 2% to the GDP of the nation and provides 6 lakh jobs in the country.
India is the second largest aluminum producing and third largest aluminum consuming country in the world. India’s share in world aluminum consumption has increased from 3 % in 2008-9 to 7 % in 2014-15.
Recent Sector Developments/Growth Drivers
Recent Sector Developments (Steel)
Due to near-stagnant demand for steel globally, and in particular in China, major global steel producers are pushing steel products into the Indian market, leading to a surge in steel imports. The Indian steel industry with higher borrowing and raw material costs and lower productivity is at a comparative disadvantage. The government has taken the following measures:
Reduction in customs duty on plants & equipment.
Imposed anti-dumping duties for stainless steel imported from China, Malaysia and South Korea.
100 per cent FDI through the automatic route is allowed in the Indian steel sector.
Minimum import price has been imposed on a number of steel products.
The government hiked the export duty on iron ore to 30 per cent ad valorem on all varieties of iron ore (except pellets).
Recent Sector Developments (Aluminum)
Customs duty on aluminium increased to 7.5% from 5%
Clean environment cess doubled to Rs. 400 per tonne
Export duty on bauxite reduced to 15% from 20%
Future Outlook
Driven by rising infrastructure development and growing demand for automotives, steel consumption is expected to reach 104 MT by 2017.
Market value of Indian steel sector is expected to reach USD95.3 billion by FY16.
Ministry of Steel forecasts production levels of finished steel at 115.3 MT by FY17.
India is expected to become the second-largest producer of steel by 2016.
Foreign investment of nearly USD40 billion committed in the steel sector.
Major public and private companies, including Tata Steel, SAIL and JSW Steel, are expanding their production capacity. Steel production is expected to reach 200 mtpa by 2020 compared to 91.46 mtpa in 2015.
The government has stepped up infrastructure spending in steel sector from the current 5 per cent of GDP to 10 per cent by 2017.
A long term perspective is to achieve steel producing capacity of 300 mtpa by 2025.
NALCO had developed a prototype of a rail wagon with aluminum body to accelerate the use of metal. These ventures would help in achieving India's commitment to reduce emissions by 20 to 25 per cent to below 2005 levels by 2020.
The share of exports in domestic production of aluminum would rise marginally to 44-45% by 2019-20 from 42% in 2014-15

STOCK RECOMMENDATION: HINDALCO - BUY
Long Term Outlook:
Indian economy is expected to grow at over 7.5% in FY16 and FY17. This would result in aluminum demand growth on account of
stronger consumption and investment.
The government's thrust on power sector that went through a challenging phase bodes well for aluminum industry as power sector is a strong demand driver for aluminum consumption in India.
In short term, Chinese supply is expected to continue to impact Rest of the World demand-supply dynamics adversely. However in
long term, overall the demand supply scenario for primary aluminum globally looks encouraging as demand continues to be robust
with expectations of around 6% growth.
Hindalco’s strong cost positioning in aluminum and support from domestic coal cost are key positives.
Hindalco’s average primary aluminum cost of production declined from USD2,346/ton in 4QFY15 to USD1,737/ton in 4QFY16, a saving of ~USD600/ton due to benefits from operating leverage, falling cost of coal and operating efficiencies.
Improved performance of primary aluminum segment of Hindalco on the back of higher volumes and margins. Operating profit
increased by 37.6% YOY and operating margin increased by 4.4% and stood at 13.5%.
I recommend a buy at current price levels of INR 133.55, with a price target INR 169.

Introduction
Oil and gas sector is one of the key sectors of any economy and plays a pivotal role in influencing
and defining the other sectors. It contributes about 15% to India’s GDP. In FY14, imports
accounted for more than 80 per cent of the country’s total oil demand. In June 2015, total oil
imports were valued at US$ 8.7 billion. The country's natural gas pipeline network is spread over
14760.6 km in 2016. Presently, domestic production accounts for more than three-quarters of
the country’s total gas consumption.
Recent Sector Developments/Growth Drivers
A number of policy reforms have been taken by the Government to remove obstacles to
investment and incentivize oil and gas sector on the lines of ease of doing business,
minimum government maximum governance and promote Make¬in-India initiative
Two world class gas hydrate reservoirs have been discovered in ultra-deep waters of KG
basin under national gas hydrate progamme-2, which has opened up new avenues for
alternative resources
To encourage private players and global oil companies, Income generated from storage and
selling of Crude Oil in Strategic crude oil reserves has been exempted from Income Tax
There is a thrust on developing gas based economy by connecting major cities with green
highways, which will have vehicles running on CNG and LNG with adequate re¬fuelling
stations
Despite being a net importer of crude oil, India has become a net exporter of petroleum
products by investing in refineries designed for export, particularly in Gujarat. Backed by
new oil fields, domestic oil output is anticipated to grow to 1 MBPD by FY16
Completion of national gas grid by construction of another 15,000 km of gas pipeline
network, which is currently under various stages of implementation. Several industries are
increasing consumption of natural gas in operations
Future Outlook
With Make In India initiative the government is looking towards further strengthening this

OIL AND GAS Q4 16
STOCK RECOMMENDATION: RELIANCE INDUSTRIES LTD.
1. Operating Parameters: Operating income of Reliance Industries ltd. is decreasing. The main reason is the falling prices of
oil. Oil prices will likely pick up in the beginning of 2018. Operating profit of Reliance is increasing even though the
operating income has decreased which is a positive sign for reliance. Operational performance of the refining segment
was much better and refining and petrochemical units could see better times ahead
2. Earnings per share: Currently, one RIL share trades at about 11 times its estimated earnings per share for this fiscal year.
News flow on the telecom launch will be an important measure to track and so will developments on commissioning of
downstream expansion projects
3. Return on Net Worth: Return on net worth of RIL is declining because of falling crude prices and hence, lesser revenue.
RIL consolidated net profit of 7,113 crore in the first quarter of 2016 fiscal was up 18.1% from the corresponding period
last year.

Revenue of Indian Pharmaceutical Sector (US$ billion)
Introduction
The Indian pharmaceuticals market is the third largest in terms of volume and thirteenth largest
in terms of value. Branded generics dominate the pharmaceuticals market, constituting nearly 70
to 80 per cent of the market. India is the largest provider of generic drugs globally with the Indian
generics accounting for 20 per cent of global exports in terms of volume. Of late, consolidation
has become an important characteristic of the Indian pharmaceutical market as the industry is
highly fragmented.
India enjoys an important position in the global pharmaceuticals sector. Presently over 80 per
cent of the antiretroviral drugs used globally to combat AIDS (Acquired Immuno Deficiency
Syndrome) are supplied by Indian pharmaceutical firms.
Healthcare has become one of India’s largest sectors - both in terms of revenue and employment.
Healthcare comprises hospitals, medical devices, clinical trials, outsourcing, telemedicine,
medical tourism, health insurance and medical equipment. The Indian healthcare sector is
growing at a brisk pace due to its strengthening coverage, services and increasing expenditure by
public as well private players.
India's competitive advantage lies in its large pool of well-trained medical professionals. India is
also cost competitive compared to its peers in Asia and Western countries. The cost of surgery in
India is about one-tenth of that in the US or Western Europe.
Recent Sector Developments/Growth Drivers
National Dialysis Services Programme to be initiated to provide dialysis services in all district
hospitals to accommodate the increasing demand for dialysis session
A new health protection scheme for health cover up to Rs 1 lakh (US$ 1,470) per family
A unique initiative for healthcare 'Sehat' (Social Endeavour for Health and Telemedicine) has
been launched at a government run Common Service Centre (CSC) to empower rural citizens
by providing access to information, knowledge, skills and other services in various sectors
through the intervention of digital technologies and fulfilling the vision of a ‘Digital India’.
Government of India's decision to increase Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in existing
pharmaceuticals companies to 74 per cent is expected to boost Mergers and Acquisitions
(M&As) and Private Equity (PE) investments in the pharmaceuticals sector in the country.
The Government of India plans to incentivise bulk drug manufacturers, including both state-
run and private companies, to encourage ‘Make in India’ programme and reduce
dependence on imports of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (API), nearly 85 per cent of
which come from China.
Future Outlook
The Indian pharmaceutical market size is expected to grow to US$ 100 billion by 2025, driven
by increasing consumer spending, rapid urbanisation, and raising healthcare insurance
among others.
During 2008-20, the healthcare market is expected to record a CAGR of 16.5 per cent.
Telemedicine market in India is valued at US$ 7.5 million currently and is expected to grow at
a CAGR of 20 per cent to reach US$ 18.7 million by 2017
Speedy introduction of generic drugs into the market to remain in focus and is expected to
benefit the Indian pharmaceutical companies.

SOURCE: http://www.ibef.org/industry/power
Overview
India is the third largest producer with a production of 1031 TWh, the fourth largest consumer
and has the fifth largest installed capacity in the world. A capacity addition of 88.5 GW is
targeted till 2017 (with an investment of about USD 250 Billion) and an additional 100 GW till
2022.
Central institutions like NTPC and the State Electricity Boards (SEBs) continue to dominate the
power sector in India. India has adopted a blend of thermal, hydel and nuclear sources with a
view to increasing the availability of electricity. Thermal plants account for about 66% of the
total power generation capacity in India, followed by hydro-electricity (16% share). The rest
comes from nuclear and other renewable energy sources (RES). The sector is faced by shortage
of funds with state owned entities running into losses year after year. Also, India’s average loss
in transmission and distribution is about 2.5 times that of world average indicating the
inefficiencies of the infrastructure. However, with 100% FDI now being allowed in the sector,
one can certainly expect the sector to grow. There has been an inflow of almost USD 9 billion
over the years accounting for 4% of India’s total FDI. There has also been a steady CAGR in
installed capacity with renewable energy sources (RES) growing at the fastest pace (18.7%).
Recent Sector Developments/Growth Drivers
In view of future power demand, the sector is witnessing a major push from the Government of
India with initiatives like capacity installation, launch of UDAY etc being undertaken. The growth
drivers for the power sector in the coming years are:
Increase of Capacity installation and reduction in transmission losses: A significant amount of capacity is stranded owing to the non-availability of gas. Rising
demand and falling domestic production has pushed the share of imported gas to 40% of the
current consumption in India. Also average transmission and distribution losses (T&D) exceed
25% of total power generation compared. India's T&D losses are almost 2.5 times the world
average. So we have to heavily invest in creating infrastructure for both.
Major Policy initiatives to streamline power generation and distribution: Implementation of National power portal-Centralized system to capture online data
regarding generation and distribution agencies. Ujjwal Discom Assurance Yojana-Introduced
for Financial turnaround of Debt laden power distribution companies. Integrated power
development scheme-Strengthening of sub-transmission and distribution networks in urban
areas. National Electricity fund-Set up to provide subsidies to State power utilities and
Discoms to improve infrastructure in distribution sector.
Future Outlook
Capacity Addition To reduce the energy deficit, India needs to rapidly increase its pace of capacity addition.
India will require a generation capacity of 415 to 445 GW to fulfill its power requirement of
315 to 335 GW.
Energy Efficiency
Adding capacity alone will not suffice. Concrete measures to enhance energy efficiency is
the way to go forward. The existing energy efficiency drives by the government like Street
Lighting National Programme (SLNP) need to be strengthened to address the bottlenecks
Renewable Focus
Renewable energy has been emerging as a sustainable source of power. Investments in RE
capacities are required to achieve the ambitious target of 175 GW by 2022. Also improved
long distance transmission is required to maintain the quality of such electricity.

Market Size of Real estate in India (USD
billion)
India’s Infrastructure Investment (USD
billion)
Introduction
The real estate, one of the most globally recognised sectors, is the second largest employer after agriculture in the Indian context and is slated to grow at 30 percent over the next decade. The Indian real estate market has become one of the most preferred destinations in the Asia and is expected to touch US$ 180 billion by 2020. The real estate sector comprises four sub sectors - housing, retail, hospitality, and commercial. The housing sector alone contributes 5-6 per cent to the country's Gross Domestic Product (GDP). In the period FY08-20, the market size of this sector is expected to increase at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 11.2 per cent. Retail, hospitality and commercial real estate are also growing significantly, providing the much-needed infrastructure for India's growing needs. The growth of this sector is well complemented by the growth of the corporate environment and the demand for office space as well as urban and semi-urban accommodations. The Indian real estate sector has witnessed high growth in recent times with the rise in demand for office as well as residential spaces. India had the strongest activity in office leasing space in Asia and accounted for half of Asia’s total office leasing in third quarter of 2015, with Delhi being the most active market. According to data released by Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion (DIPP), the construction development sector in India has received Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) equity inflows to the tune of US$ 24.19 billion in the period April 2000-March 2016.
Recent Sector Developments and Growth Drivers
Stronger transactions volume expected in the second half of FY16-17, judging from the
current deal pipeline
With REITs opening up, a host of domestic developers will likely to divest stakes in their
leased portfolios.
Real Estate (Regulation and Development) bill expected to be passed soon by the
parliament.
India’s economic growth along with growing urbanization is driving the demand for both
commercial and residential real estate. Government initiatives such as various urban
development policies and programmes (e.g., JNNURM) are expected to contribute to
enhanced urbanisation.
The number of foreign tourists arriving in India increased at a CAGR of 7.1 per cent during
2007–25E. The growing inflows from tourists is expected to provide a fillip to the
hospitality sector in accordance with the increased provisions in the latest union budget.
Increased FDI and PE investments in the realty sector would further boost its growth. SEZs
are also emerging as an extension of the real estate business. 100% FDI has been
permitted in real estate projects within SEZs.
Government policies such as ease in housing finances, housing for economically weaker
sections, increased FDI, widening the scope of real estate market and land acquisition bill
have further served as a growth driver for the industry.
Future Outlook
India still remains an under-served economy in terms of infrastructural requirements. Until
2014, Indian real estate sector was poorly regulated, fragmented and highly inefficient.
However, since then, we’ve witnessed a slew of policy and regulatory measures taken by the
incumbent govt. This year will see this sector moving from investor-driven to end user driven
cycle. Growth in Indian economy will see favorable reflections in real estate sector as well.

Stock Recommendation
Oberoi Realty – Buy
Long Term Outlook:
The recent Q4FY16 results have been on the muted side, both revenue and profits showing reasonable increase
With implementation of 7th pay commission, real estate sector will gain from rise in salaries and pensions of government
employees, up to 20% jump expected in realty sector stocks in the next 6-8 months
Company’s new operating cycle has started with huge success of Mulund, JVLR and Borivali projects, which speaks
volumes about company’s brand equity, attractiveness of its product offerings and strength of future cash flows

profitability has resulted in matured unsold inventories in place
The company has passed an enabling resolution to issue equity worth up to Rs. 750 crore and NCDs worth up to Rs. 1500

India’s telecommunications market is expected to experience further growth, powered by increased non-voice revenues and higher penetration in rural market. Telecom penetration in the nation's rural market is expected to increase to 70 per cent by 2017. The emergence of an affluent middle class is triggering demand for the mobile and internet segments. Rise in the security level of mobile transactions, along with the availability of affordable smartphones, is expected to boost growth of transactions conducted via phones.
Strong policy support from the government has been crucial to the sector’s development. FDI cap in the telecom sector has been increased to 100 per cent from 74 per cent. Between FY 07-16, India’s telephone subscriber base expanded at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 19.5 per cent to 1,022.61 million and tele-density to 80.98.

TELECOM Q4 16
STOCK RECOMMENDATION: BHARTI AIRTEL - HOLD
Founded in 1995 with headquarters at New Delhi, Bharti Airtel is amongst the top 4 service providers globally with operations in 20 countries.
In India, Bharti Airtel’s product portfolio include Wireless Voice and Data services, Fixed Line Services, High Speed Broadband, Mobile
Commerce, IPTV and DTH services.
Announcing an Rs.600 Billion investment in comprehensive network transformation, Airtel plans to penetrate the existing market,
building smart and dynamic communication architecture. This shall result in organic growth and rising Revenues and Profits in the
coming future.
Robust Revenues were reported at Rs.24983.2 crore as against Rs. 23039.8 previous year reporting a YoY growth of 8.43% beating
the Dalal Street expectations of Rs.24549.4 crores
Reduction in access and interconnect costs resulted in expansion of Wireless EBITDA margins reporting a better-than-expected
EBITDA margins rising by 151 BPS QoQ. Support from African business continued with a rise EBITDA Margin of 80 BPS QoQ where rise
in EBITDA Margin from Indian business stood at 170 BPS
Even after reporting a consolidated exceptional loss of Rs.300 crore, Airtel managed to beat the Dalal street expectations of PAT
Rs.1004.5 crores by reporting a consolidated PAT of Rs.1237.5 crores, posting robust QoQ growth of 22.57%
Africa business also showed support with 18% QoQ growth in total data usage. Management have faith in the Africa Business story
expecting better Revenue figures in future pushing the Net Profit upwards.
Cash flows from operations remained almost unchanged at Rs.338 Billion as compared to Rs.339 Billion previous year. However a
slight one--time decline in cash flows from operations is anticipated in the next year for increase in working capital for its African
Businesses. However, sound cash flows and reserves are anticipated in the foreseeable future.
Airtel continued its strong performance in DTH Sector and while other SBUs like Wynk and Airtel Money showed progress. Airtel
launched Micro Financing with Airtel Money in Malawi.
India Business revenue might take a slight hit in the coming future due to stiff competition and price slashing expected from Reliance
Jio after its launch, however the Dalal Street expects Airtel to continue on its growth story.

UK AFTER BREXIT
On 23rd June 2016, in a historical decision taken by the British citizens led to the exit of Britain from European Union,
popularly known as Brexit. With 52% of the votes in favor of leaving EU has pushed the UK’s political and economic situation
into unknown paths of consequences.
This is not the first instance when UK tried to leave EU. In 1975, United Kingdom held a referendum on whether the UK
should remain in European Economic Community or not and due to the difference of opinion within the ruling party it did
not happen. Since then attempts had been made to withdraw UK from EU but none succeeded. In 2013, the then Prime
Minister of UK David Cameron announced that the referendum would take place before the end of 2017 and on 22 February
2016, in the speech to the House of Commons he announced the referendum date of 23 June 2016. Article 50 of the Treaty
on European Union lays down the process of UK’s withdrawal from the European Union.
Britain’s Economy is one the most open to the world. For firms investing in UK meant access to the single market of Europe.
Foreign firms earned around 70 billion euro by their investments in Britain. This is equivalent to 10% of all the profits made
by top 500 European companies. But it is now expected that inflow of FDI in UK would slow down and many companies are
preparing to shift their business center from London to elsewhere. The hardest hit sectors are manufacturing sector and
financial sector.
Manufacturing activity which accounts for 10% of UK GDP, fell even more rapidly in the wake of the Brexit vote than first
expected, according to the July’s survey snapshot of the sector. Chartered Institute of Procurement & Supply (CIPS) said that
in July its Purchasing Managers’ Index stood at 48.2, below the 50 point that separates growth from contraction – and also
below the 49.1 “flash” estimate that it produced on 22 July. The reading implies the fastest rate of contraction in UK
manufacturing activity since February 2013.
Brexit threatens carmakers’ access to European export markets. Two-thirds of all vehicles produced in Britain are exported to
the EU, and mass-market models, sold with slender margins—such as those made by Toyota, Nissan and Honda—are most
vulnerable to currency swings or any future tariffs. By contrast, firms that are headquartered in London for cultural, legal and
tax reasons, but that have little exposure to the British economy and do not use Britain as an export hub—companies such as
SABMiller, a brewer, or ArcelorMittal, will not be much affected by recession and the falling pound.

Many financial firms and insurers rely on the EU’s ‘passporting’ regime to sell their services across the bloc while basing most
of their staff and operations outside the euro zone in London. European government officials have warned that British-based
firms could lose their ‘passports’ if the country opts to leave, a move that would force them to shift some operations to the
likes of Frankfurt, Paris or Dublin if they wanted to continue serving EU clients. Some experts claim that leaving the EU could
destroy 10,000 jobs in the financial services industry. The ripple effect it may have might even be worst for companies that
have business links to Europe; Brexit could affect an additional 285,000 jobs in the sector too.
Given the above cons of Brexit, once can see pros of Brexit too. The UK pays more into the budget than it gets back. Leaving
the EU would result in an immediate cost saving, as the country would no longer contribute to the EU budget. Last year,
Britain paid in £13bn, but it also received £4.5bn worth of spending, so the UK's net contribution was £8.5bn. What's harder
to determine is whether the financial advantages of EU membership, such as free trade and inward investment outweigh the
upfront costs.
After Brexit, UK would be able to build competitive economy outside the EU. The recent past of EU tells us that there has
been a very unstable political situation in EU with Greece crises and other major economies facing volatility in their markets.
After Brexit UK would be able to live in a stable and venerable democracy.
Immigration was a key problem for UK. Under EU law, Britain cannot prevent anyone from another member state coming to
live in the country. The result has been a huge increase in immigration into Britain, particularly from eastern and southern
Europe. According to the office for National Statistics there are 1.7 million Europeans and 1.93 million workers from outside
the EU. China and India are the biggest source of foreign workers in the UK.
46
The effect of leaving the EU on British jobs depends on a complex interplay of the factors above: trade, investment and
immigration. If trade and investment falls now the UK has voted for Brexit, then some of these jobs would be lost – but if
they rose, then new jobs would be created. A drop in immigration would, all else being equal, mean more jobs for the people
who remained, but labor shortages could also hold back the economy, reducing its potential for growth.
The biggest and the most important effect of Brexit was on pound. As soon as the results started to come in, the pound
started to plunge. From around $1.50 before the polls closed, the pound dropped to $1.45, then $1.40, and then to $1.34, its
lowest level since 1985. It was the worst day for sterling since the currency floated in the early 1970s. The shock was also
reflected in equity markets, both within and outside Britain. The Nikkei 225 average in Tokyo has dropped 8%. The pound’s
fall reflects the idea that UK assets need to be cheaper to attract international investment. The UK current account deficit of
7% needs financing. A fall in the pound helps exporters. But businesses may decide to take the benefit of higher profits
rather than by cutting prices and increasing their market share.
Although UK’s government has taken all the measures to tackle the Brexit effects. It is feared that the world is entering into a
recessionary period post Brexit, but the world still need to feel the real consequences of Brexit.
