Quarterly Investments added during the quarter

• Investment cycle suffered a virtual collapse.

Corporate sentiments were impaired due to

lack of clear road map, slowing GDP growth

and elevated cost of capital.

• Projects worth INR 8,000 bn got stalled – due

to Fuel linkages /EC/FC/Regulatory

Clearances, creating a large back log of capital

work in progress.

• Better policy framework and governance to

revive investments.

New Government Report Card

• ‘Minimum Government, Maximum Governance’ on its way

a) Abolished several Group of Ministers (GoM) and Empowered GoM (EGoM)

b) Downsized the cabinet

c) Emphasized time-bound and transparent decision-making and sharply

increased the accountability of bureaucrats and ministers alike.

• Kick-starting the investment cycle

a) Government promised to achieve 25km/day of road construction in FY15

b) Issues with 3 critical railway links for coal transportation – stuck for a long time

on various issues – are being resolved with at least one project now on track.

• Inflation Control: The road is long

• Measures to address inflation in the short term

• Exhorting states to delist trade of fruits and vegetables through the Agriculture

Produce Market Committees (APMCs)- so farmers can sell directly

• The budget also promised a restructuring of the Food Corporation of India

(FCI)

• Both the inflation matrix have registered a sharp decline in the month of June. Favorable base effects

will continue to provide lower inflation prints till November.

• More importantly the momentum of Core inflation in case of both wholesale and retail has been

trending down vs. its historical average.

• Going forward we expect inflation to atleast achieve RBI glide path thus creating a headroom for

monetary easing eventually.

Budget The guiding post

Budget Overview 2014-15

GDP growth estimated between 5.4 - 5.9% as per the economic survey

Fiscal deficit budgeted at 4.1 % of GDP- and fiscal path 3.6% in FY16 and 3% in FY17.

Current account deficit expected at 2.1% of GDP

Revenue deficit projected at 2.9% of GDP

Net market borrowing to be Rs. 4.6 lakh crores

Road Map expected

Market expected clarity on Road map for GST & reforms for Subsidy rationalization.

Lack of clarity on the application of GAAR created uncertainty for a host of entities.

Copyright Aditya Birla Nuvo Limited 2013

Birla Sun Life Asset Management Company Limited

FY14 Deficit The fiscal deficit for FY14 was finally pegged at 4.5% of GDP v/s budget

estimates of 4.8% of GDP

Sharp cut in planned expenditure key reason (10.8% growth vs BE of 29.4%)

Revenues were running below budget estimates due to slowdown in economic activity and shortfall in divestment receipts

FY15 budget math: More realistic The fiscal arithmetic is based on nominal GDP growth of 13.4%, total

revenues rising 15.6% and expenditure rising 12.9%

GDP growth assumption moderately optimistic, expect receipts targets to be met on account of non-tax revenues

Higher expenditure budgeted for an investment starved economy

Upside risks to fiscal deficit unlikely

Consensus expectations are still low

• Over the last four years we have seen an earning decline cycle. In FY12,FY13, FY14 we say

sharp cuts in Sensex earnings estimates.

• From Dec 2013 we saw consensus earning revision towards the positive side.

• Historically, analyst estimates for earning growth tends to lag in accelerating GDP growth

environment,. Over the course of next few years we expect upwards revision in estimates

Outlook

Equity markets have rallied on decisive election outcome leading to hopes of improving

pace and quality of economic recovery.

• A pro-reform government coupled with decisive leadership will accelerate the reforms

and growth process.

• The depressed corporate profitability will improve over the next 3 to 5 of years as the

economy sees a cyclical uptick, clocking CAGR of 18% - driven by higher revenues,

operating leverage and interest costs savings.

• Even post the sharp run up- Sensex trades at 1year forward PE of 16.8x. Earning

upgrades cycle on visibility in reform process will provide further support to market and

valuations.

• We expect cyclical recovery in economy with average GDP growth of 6% over the next

5years with exit GDP of 7.5 to 8%. - equity returns will be driven both by earning

growth and valuation re-rating providing investor a good investment opportunity.

• In the current scenario, equity investments provide a compelling case over other asset

classes. Indian investors should increase their equity allocations and benefit from

Indian growth story.
