Dear Investors,
Continued bleak picture on the domestic economic growth coupled with
falling inflation numbers led most debt market investors to assume a fairly
fast monetary loosening by RBI in the months to come. This has led to a
sharp fall in 10-year G-Sec yields in recent weeks. With this rally, we
believe that the long term debt tactical overweight allocation theme is
starting to conclude. Most investors have realized double digit returns in
long term debt in last 1-2 years. From here on, the returns expectations
from long term debt are not as strong. We would expect single digit
returns from now on. Hence we are recommending partial exit from the
tactical allocation to long term debt – in effect booking some profits. As
the expected rate cuts do happen over next few months, we will
recommend taking out the remaining tactical allocation to long term debt
as well. We continue to look at long term debt as an important part of the
portfolio for yield accrual still. It is only the rate-cut driven capital
appreciation that we are expecting to come down.
An additional factor guiding our recommendation is the likelihood of
increased volatility in long term yields – as debt market participants try to
second guess the speed and extent of monetary policy loosening. It is
quite possible that RBI temporarily disappoints the majority of the debt
market investors from time to time – thus leading to occasional spurts in
the yields. The risk to reward ratio of long term debt has turned higher
than what it was till recently.
Our outlook on economic growth continues to remain cautious. With
order book growth of infrastructure companies still below expectations,
the investment climate is far from healthy. Unless the government
expedites some public or PPP-driven infrastructure spending, investment
activity will remain subdued. A few large-ticket government-led
infrastructure projects are looking set for revival (e.g. the Mumbai-Delhi
corridor). Hopefully there is more to come.
Global investors’ love for and domestic investors’ aversion to Indian
equities continues. The FII inflows into equities continued while domestic
exits nearly balanced them through last few weeks. We are witnessing a
fatigue for equity markets amongst several investors that have stayed
invested for last few years and have lost patience to wait longer for the
“long term returns”. By their very nature, equity market returns are quite
volatile from one year to another. It is quite likely that a large proportion
of the 5-year returns are made in a single year or two one year periods.
The attitude to time the markets for an exit for an entry at a lower point
later is likely to be the victim of missing out on such make-or-break years.
We recommend staying invested with the advice that next one year can
be bumpy but next three are quite likely to be lucrative.
Our bearish outlook on gold continues. We believe that the market price
of gold in the recent years has been a product of multi-year trend-
following speculation, demand from newly rich Asian investors and the
general fiat-money-phobia of select developed market investors. As the
third of these factors starts to reduce in strength (western demand) and
thus put strain on the first factor as well (speculative long positions),
support for gold price will come primarily from Asian retail investors.
Considering the huge quantities of gold-as-investment holdings (through
financial instruments) looking to get out, the gold-as-consumption-cum-
investment demand is unlikely to be able to prop the price up.

7. Economic Outlook - Domestic
 As on May 2013 Bank credits grew by 14.7% on a Y-o-Y basis
which is about 3% lower than the growth witnessed in May
2012. Aggregate deposits on a Y-o-Y basis grew at 13.5%, viz-a
viz a growth of 13.8% in May 2012.
 In keeping with the guidance and an increasingly benign stance,
RBI reduced the repo rate by 25 bps to 7.25% in its monetary
policy as of 3rd May 2013. While doing so, it also emphasized
that supporting growth is going to be a priority in days ahead. It
kept the others rates.
 The key triggers favoring the rate cut seem to be lower
trajectory of WPI and core inflation, lower GDP data than
anticipated and of course the government’s intent to rein in the
fiscal deficit.
 WPI inflation hit a 41-month low of 4.89 per cent in April on the
back of meaningful decline across its main product groups,
especially food and fuel groups. core inflation (non-food
manufactured products) dipped to 39-month low of 2.80 per cent
in April. The RBI closely tracks core inflation for devising its
monetary policy and is thus likely to take a favorable view of this
development.
 WPI for the month of Feb’13 has been revised upwards sharply by
41 bps to 7.23% YoY. Divergence in CPI and WPI reading has
widened considerably over 400bps in last two months. Divergence
in Feb’13 reading was above 400bps, however after revision in the
Feb’13 numbers, the gap has narrowed down.
 CPI for April has come in below 10.0 per cent due to the lagged
impact of fiscal tightening by the government and slower pace of
growth in rural wages. CPI drops by nearly 1.0% point to 9.39% YoY
from 10.39% in Mar’13; this is mainly due to favourable base and
sharp slowdown in food prices for the month of April.

8. Equity Outlook
The month of May saw FII inflows continuing into India with fresh buying worth 3.5 billion dollars taking the YTD number past 15 billion.
Macroeconomic indicators continue to improve with WPI inflation coming in at a 40 month low. The downward trajectory of WPI inflation has
paved the way for further monetary easing by RBI. We expect further 50-75bps cut in repo rates this fiscal as inflation continues to cool-off.
The cool off in crude oil prices and continuing decontrol of diesel prices will be incrementally positive for the fiscal account. The fiscal deficit
for FY13 has come in at 4.9% which shows that significant fiscal consolidation was achieved last fiscal. The government has continued with
politically difficult reform measures like monthly hike in diesel prices. If price hikes continue for auto fuels, it will lead to significant easing of
pressure on fiscal deficit front. We expect deficit for FY14 to be closer to 5%. RBI has taken cognizance of these fiscal consolidation measures
and carried out monetary easing in the last few reviews. We expect another 25bps cut in repo rates on 17th June, when RBi meets for mid-
quarter review.
Indian rupee has been under significant pressure last month due to strength in US dollar. Dollar moved about against most emerging market
currencies. We believe that as gold prices cool-off, Current account situation will stabilize and ease off the pressure on rupee. With US
economy bouncing back and improvement in unemployment number, Global situation remains benign and conducive to equity markets in
2013.
The fourth quarter results of Indian companies have been on expected lines. Private sector banks, Pharma & consumer staples continue to
do well. We believe the worst of the corporate earnings is now behind us and we expect a 12% growth in earnings this fiscal. We expect a
cyclical recovery in economy in second half of this year which will be positive for equity market . Investors should continue to buy at every
dip. 8

9. Sector Stance Remarks
Healthcare Overweight
We believe in the large sized opportunity presented by Pharma sector in India. India’s strength in
generics is difficult to replicate due to quality and quantity of available skilled manpower. With the
developed world keen to cut healthcare costs, and a vast pipeline of drugs going off-patent, Indian
pharma players are at the cusp of rapid growth.
BFSI Overweight
The reversal of the interest rate cycle will assist in managing asset quality better and would lead to
increase in credit growth. However, we like the private sector more than public sector due to
better management quality and higher balance sheet discipline
FMCG Overweight
We like the secular consumption theme. We prefer “discretionary consumption” beneficiaries such
as Cigarettes, IT hardware, durables and branded garments, as the growth in this segment will be
disproportionately higher vis-à-vis the increase in disposable incomes.
Telecom Neutral
The regulatory hurdles and competitive pressures seem to be reducing. Incumbents have started
to increase tariffs slowly and we believe that consolidation will happen sooner than expected.
IT/ITES Neutral
Demand seems to be coming back in Europe. US volume growth has also remained resilient. With
pricing already bottomed out, we have turned constructive on the space.
Sector View
9

10. Sector Stance Remarks
Automobiles Neutral
Raw material prices have started coming down which would boost margins. Auto loans are also
getting cheaper. We are more bullish on SUV’s and agricultural vehicles segment due to lesser
competition and higher pricing power.
Energy Neutral
With the ongoing price deregulation of diesel, we believe the total subsidy burden on Oil PSU’s will
come down during the course of the year.
Power Utilities Neutral
We like the regulated return charteristic of this space. This space provides steady growth in
earnings and decent return on capital.
Metals Underweight
Commodity prices have corrected significantly over the last few months due to concerns about
growth in China and developed parts of the world.
Cement Underweight
Cement industry is facing over capacity issues and lack-lustre demand. With regulator taking a
strong view against pricing discipline, the profits of the sector are expected to stay muted.
E&C Underweight
The significant slowdown in order inflow activity combined with high interest rates has hurt the
sector. It will take some time before capex activity revives
Sector View

11. Debt Outlook
• G-Sec yields harden during the last week of the month on the policy makers concern regarding inflation and Current account
deficit. The new benchmark 10-year security 7.16% GOI 2023 closed the week at 7.24% vs. previous close of 7.11%.
• In G-sec auction, RBI auctioned G-sec (Rs. 15000cr) in following G-sec- 7.16% GS 2023 (Rs. 6000cr), 8.97% GS 2030 (Rs.3000cr),
8.83% GS 2041 (Rs. 3000cr) and new 6 year GS 2019 (Rs. 3000cr) with cut-off of 7.28%, 7.50%, 7.54% and 7.28% respectively.
• The spread on a 10 year AAA rated corporate bond reduced to 70 Bps on 31st May 2013 from 79 Bps (as on 30th April 2013). AAA
Rated bond yields dipped by 37 bps to 8.15% as compared to the yields a month earlier at 8.52%

12. Debt Strategy
OutlookCategory Details
Long Tenure
Debt
Indian long term debt is likely to see capital appreciation owing to the expected
monetary easing. With the fourth policy rate cut that happened in March 2013,
with a 25 Bps cut in Repo rate and no CRR cut, there is lesser probability of rate
cuts in the near future and there could be a lot of volatility in the g-sec yields as
well. An important point to note is that as commodity prices are cooling down,
current account deficit may reduce to some extent. But all this is coupled with
uncertainty. Hence we recommend that if investing for a period of 2 years or
above then long term can be looked upon or else holding/profit booking could
be a good idea. Investors who may want to stay invested for the medium term
(exiting when prices appreciate) and those who would want to lock in high
yields for the longer term can also invest in longer tenure papers/Funds.
Some AA and select A rated securities are very attractive at the current
yields. A similar trend can be seen in the Fixed Deposits also. Tight liquidity
in the system has also contributed to widening of the spreads making entry
at current levels attractive.
With the fourth policy rate cut that happened in May 2013, with a 25 Bps cut
in Repo rate and no CRR along with lesser probability of future cuts in the
policy rates in the coming quarter, but as there is influence of global factors in
the market, a lot of uncertainty is coupled with it, hence, we would
recommend to invest in and hold on to current investments in short term
debt Due to liquidity pressures increasing in the market as RBI has a huge
borrowing plan, short term yields would remain higher. Short Term funds still
have high YTMs (9%–9.5%) providing interesting investment opportunities.

Oil & Gas
While the expectation of steadier global growth is a good news for
the oil counter given the excess liquidity available, the growth
concerns in China will cap any upside. In the energy sufficient USA,
there is a structural shift towards Shale Gas production amid crude
oil inventories ruling at 30 year high. With no supply disruption in
sight amid feeble global growth, we expect lower energy prices.
Crude
Gold
Having risen consecutively for eleven years, dollar-gold price performance
is one of the best among other asset classes, generating an annualized
return of 18%. The global financial system was flood with central banks
liquidity that had risen risk asset in the year 2012 and this is expected to
further lift risk asset prices in the year 2013. Given this backdrop, one
could expect a decent profit booking on the precious metal counter as the
money flow shall now be diverted to equities that was under owned since
2008. We also expect liquidity to dry up significantly around end of 1QCY
following the ECB’s LTROs amid a sharp pull back in dollar index -following
the Fed’s signal to wind down the stimulus program this year - could
rattle global commodity prices. The controlled measures by the central
bankers to curb gold demand with a prime objective being to shore up
confidence in the monetary and banking system, bullion in all probability
will not be a free market. As bullion derivatives market is far larger than
the size of physical metal, a small trigger is sufficient enough to create a
big impact. Domestically, it now seems that gold has formed an
intermediate top and one could see considerable price pull back going
ahead in the year 2013.

Real Estate Outlook
Asset Classes Tier I Tier II
Residential
A lot of new supply has been seen in the Tier I markets across all price
segments, especially in NCR-Delhi and Mumbai, owing to faster approvals and
expectations of a sales recovery due to the reduction in the home loan
interest rates.
While some of the new launches have selectively seen a good response,
overall sales have still been slow and prices continued to be stagnant in most
markets.
Mid-income residential segment with Rs. 4,000 – 6,000 per sq. ft. entry
pricing with good developers in Pune, Bangalore, NCR and Mumbai suburbs
are expected to see good percentage returns with relatively low risk.
Implications of Budget 2013: The additional one-time tax exemption of Rs.
1,00,000 for home loans below Rs. 25 Lacs is expected to give a slight push in
the affordable housing segment. TDS of 1% on all properties above Rs. 50 lacs
after May 2013 and increase in service tax from 3.09% to 3.71% for flats above
2,000 sq. ft. in size or Rs. 1 Cr. in value may act as dampeners for sale of mid
to high end residential space.
Demand in Tier II cities is largely driven by the trend towards
nuclear families, increasing disposable income, rising
aspiration to own quality products and the growth in
infrastructure facilities in these cities. Price appreciation is
more concentrated to specific micro-markets in these cities.
Cities like Chandigarh, Jaipur, Lucknow, Ahmedabad, Bhopal,
Nagpur, Patna and Cochin are expected to perform well.
Commercial/IT
Prices for the commercial asset class continue to be dampened due to the
historic oversupply. In terms of absorption, Bangalore, Hyderabad and Pune
markets are doing better than the national average.
Rentals in commercial asset class are seen to be rising slowly but they are still
below the peal values achieved in the past. In relative terms, Bangalore
market has outperformed other markets owing primarily to the demand from
the IT industry.
Specific pre-leased properties with good tenant profile and larger lock-in
periods continue to be good investment opportunities over a long-term
horizon.
Relatively low unsold inventory and smaller unit sizes have
led to stable lease rentals in Tier II cities. Not much
movement in the capital values has been seen in the Tier II
cities.

16. Real Estate Outlook

Please Note:
Tier I* markets include Mumbai, Delhi & NCR, Bangalore, Pune, Chennai, Hyderabad and Kolkatta
Tier II* markets includes all state capitals other than the Tier I markets
Asset Classes Tier I Tier II
Retail
In HY2 2012, Government approved 51% foreign
ownership in multi-brand retail and 100% in single-brand
retail. While this move is expected to infuse new
enthusiasm in the sector, it will take a gestation period of
at least an year for this to translate into actual off-take of
space. In fact, completion of a number of malls has been
delayed to defer the construction costs and capitalize on
the expected future demand from FDI.
Currently, unsold inventory levels continue to be high
levels and lease rentals stagnant.
Tier II cities see a preference of hi-street retail as compared
to mall space in Tier I cities. While not much data on these
rentals gets reported, these are expected to have been
stagnant.
The mall culture has repeatedly failed in the past n the
Tier-2 cities. Whether the FDI in retail can change this
phenomenon can be known with more certainty once the
effect of FDI is more visible in Tier I cities.
Land
Agricultural / non-agricultural lands with connectivity to
Tier I cities and in proximity to upcoming industrial and
other infrastructure developments present good
investment opportunities. Caution should however be
exercised due to the complexities typically involved in
land investments.
Land in Tier II and III cities along upcoming / established
growth corridors have seen good percentage appreciation
due to low investment base in such areas.
