Markets:
• Indian equity markets extended their rally in the passing month, with major indices surging to record highs following a series of encouraging macro-economic indicators. However, investors preferred to book profits after the new Indian government's maiden Budget fell short of expectations. Later, the markets retreated after a fall in wholesale and retail price inflation in June raised hopes of a rate cut by the RBI at its policy review next month. Moreover, continued buying by FIIs (foreign institutional investors) further led to an upside rally. Strong Index of Industrial Production data for May also provided additional support. Key benchmark indices – the Sensex and Nifty - rose 1.89% and 1.45%, respectively.
• On the macro economic front, India's Index of Industrial Production (IIP) grew at a 19-month high of 4.7% in May due to the rise in output of manufacturing, mining and power sectors. Meanwhile, the June consumer price index (CPI)-based inflation came in at a 29-month low to 7.31% against 8.28% in May, helped mainly by a moderation in food prices.
• Bond yields fell during the month after a decline in retail and wholesale price inflation for June boosted investor sentiments. Moreover, a fall in global crude oil prices also improved sentiments. However, after an escalation in the Ukraine crisis, markets remained largely cautious and stayed on the sidelines.
• According to data released by the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI), Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) continued to remain net buyers in the equity segment for the month of July, 2014. They bought equities to the tune of Rs. 13,123.84 crore compared to Rs. 13,990.76 crore recorded in the previous month. Domestic mutual funds also remained net buyers in Indian equity markets to the tune of Rs. 3,609.7 crore (upto 30th July, 2014).

Model Portfolio - II: MODERATE
Objective: The moderate model portfolio consists of a mix of 5 funds across different
categories, wherein the total equity allocation is 63%, while the rest is in debt and others. The
top 5 sectors constitute 27% of the investment portfolio, of which 13% of the allocation is
inclined towards Banks (public and private), while 7% is in IT followed by 4% in Pharma and 3%
is in Engineering-Construction. In the case of debt and balanced funds, exposure to G-secs is
48% and 11% is in AAA/P1+ papers. This makes the fund more stable and safe to invest in.

Finance Minister Arun Jaitley's maiden budget was devoid of any block buster announcements,
and rightly so. However, there were a few surprises for retail investors.
Positive Surprises
1) Personal income-tax exemption limits raised from Rs. 2 lacs to Rs. 2.50 lacs for
individuals and from Rs. 2.50 lacs to Rs. 3 lacs for senior citizens (60 years and above).
This delivers a saving of Rs. 5,150 (including education cess of 3%) to all individuals
across the board. The Rs. 5 lakh income slab exempt for those above 80 years remains
the same.
2) Income-tax deduction for interest on housing loans for self-occupied property
increased from Rs. 1.50 lacs to Rs. 2 lacs.
3) Investment limit for the deduction under Section 80C of the Income-Tax Act, 1961
raised from Rs. 1 lac to Rs. 1.5 lacs. This will result in a maximum saving of Rs. 15,450
to investors in the 30% tax bracket.
Accordingly, the new tax slabs will be:
Budget and Your moneyBudget and Your money
Tax rate Tax slab
Individuals Current Slab Post Budget
Exemption* Up to Rs.2,00,000 Up to Rs. 2,50,000
10% Rs.2,00,001 – Rs. 5,00,000 Rs.2,50,001 – Rs. 5,00,000
20% Rs.5,00,001 – Rs. 10,00,000 Rs.5,00,001 – Rs. 10,00,000
30% Above Rs. 10,00,000 Above Rs. 10,00,000
Note: Education cess @ 3% plus surcharge chargeable to all slabs.
In addition to the Income tax changes, the retail investor could also gain from the divestment of
PSU banks, as the FM has proposed to come out with IPOs for the benefit of retail investors.
Negative Surprises
The Union Budget has increased the period of holding for debt funds from the existing 12
months to 36 months, in order to classify the fund as long-term. Moreover, the rate of tax on
debt funds will be at 20% (with indexation) and the previous concessional rate of 10% has been
scrapped. This, according to the FM, has been done predominantly to remove the tax arbitrage
between debt funds and fixed deposits.

Since the Budget proposal includes all non-equity funds, schemes that invest in overseas stocks
to the tune of more than 65% of their portfolio, too, would attract higher taxes as they are
treated as debt products for all practical purposes.
Secondly, Dividend Distribution Tax (DDT) was earlier calculated on the net dividend
distributed; now it will be calculated on the gross dividend. The earlier effective DDT, which was
22.07% will now be 28.325% (including surcharge and cess). This 6.3% increase in the tax will
have a direct impact on the returns of debt funds.
Debt funds to lose their charm
Retail investors who looked towards debt funds for tax-efficient returns will now have to pay
more taxes. Under the new rules for FMPs with a 1-3 year tenure, the gains would be added to
your income and taxed at your slab rate. Now, Fixed Maturity Plans (FMPs) with tenures of less
than 3 years will become scarce as no investor would look at those instruments, going forward.
Given below is the table depicting the change in taxation of debt funds:
Holding period Existing Tax rate Proposed Tax rate
Less than 1 year Marginal rate applicable to No change
More than 1 year but less 10% without indexation or Marginal rate applicable to
More than 3 years 10% without indexation or 20% with indexation
