Fund Manager Commentary

January 2014

Fixed Income Update for January 2014

Key Market Highlights:

• During the month we saw mixed performance across various debt asset classes.

While gilt yields fell by 5-10 bps across the curve, T- bill and CD rates rose by

10-75 bps, the corporate bond yields remained flattish to marginally up 5 bps.

Gilt yields fell on OMO announcement, deferment of G- sec auction and fall in

global bond yields. Money market rates rose as banking system liquidity deficit rose

and overnight rates remained volatile. Renewed fears on emerging markets led to

selloff by FIIs in T- bills and corporate bonds towards end of the month.

• RBI released the much awaited Expert Committee report which was formed to

revise and strengthen the Monetary Policy Framework. The key recommendations

of this report are 1) Inflation as measured by Headline CPI (combined) to be nominal

anchor for Monetary Policy targeting 2) the target for inflation should be set at

4 per cent with a band of +/- 2 per cent around it 3) the transition path to the

target zone should be graduated to bringing down inflation from the current level

of 10 per cent to 8 per cent over a period not exceeding the next 12 months and to

6 per cent over a period not exceeding the next 24 month period before

formally adopting the recommended target of 4 per cent inflation with a band of

+/- 2 per cent. 4) Monetary policy decision-making should be vested in a monetary

policy committee 5) In the first or transitional phase, the weighted average call

rate could remain the operating target, and the overnight LAF repo rate may

continue as the single policy rate. In Phase II the 14 day term repo would be target

policy rate. This report if accepted could mark a significant change in the conduct

of Monetary Policy in India. Several recommendations including introduction of

term repos, significance of Headline CPI etc have already been initiated by RBI

Governor Dr. Rajan.

• RBI in its Monetary Policy review held on 28th Jan 2014 surprised markets by hiking

key repo and reverse repo rates by 25 bps to 8% and 7% respectively. Although

headline inflation has fallen substantially during the month, core CPI and WPI went

up marginally. In hiking rates, RBI seems to have implicitly accepted the

recommendations of the Urjit Patel Committee on keeping Headline CPI as nominal

anchor and keeping rates high till inflation fall.

• The US Federal Reserve also decided to further curtail its bond purchases from

February 2014 by another US$ 10 bn. 10 year US treasury yields ended the month

much lower at 2.64% as compared to 3.02% the previous month.

• INR exhibited signs of weakness by depreciating against USD during the month.

It ended at 62.65 as compared to 61.8 during the previous month. During the

month FIIs were net buyers of domestic debt to the tune of ` 13,000 crore approx.

• The new ten year benchmark 8.83% GOI 2023 closed at 8.78%, 5 bps lower than

previous month end.

• The ten year AAA Corporate bond benchmark closed at 9.66%, 5 bps higher than

previous month. The five yr AAA corporate bond benchmark rose by 11 bps to close

at 9.75%.

• 1 year CD rates rose sharply to 9.65%, 42 bps higher than previous month. 1 year

T-bill rate also rose to 8.83%.

• December WPI data release came at 6.16% y-o-y vs. 7.52% in previous month.

CPI for December 2013 also came in sharply lower at 9.87% compared to 11.16%

in previous month. The fall in WPI and CPI was primarily due to sharp fall in vegetables.

• November industrial production (IIP) growth came in at -2.1% yoy reflecting tepid

activity.

• Liquidity deficit was lower at around ̀ 93,500 crore higher than the ̀ 78,000 crore

average for the previous month combined for daily LAF, term LAF and MSF.

Outlook:

• We expect long end gilt yields to remain range bound with downward bias due to

lack of supply this month. The ten year G-sec benchmark is expected to trade in a

band of 8.50 to 9.00% in the near term.

• The five year AAA PSU corporate bond benchmark is expected to trade in a range

of 9.40 to 9.80%.

• Inflation as measured by WPI and CPI for January 2014 is expected to fall further.

This may support gilt and bond prices.

• Short term money market yields are expected to remain range bound. Banks CD

issuance can put upward pressure on rates, however if liquidity eases from current

levels it may lead to softening of CD rates.

• Systemic liquidity deficit is expected to remain lower during the month in a range of

` 60,000 to 90,000 cr for the month of February 2014.

Equity Markets

Review of Equity Market for the Month of January 2014

The equity markets were down about 4% in the month of January. The MSCI India index

was down about 4% in USD terms, while the benchmark MSCI EM index was down

about 6.6%. This was primarily due to FII flows which were barely positive during the

month. Globally, there was heightened risk aversion to EMs as investors worried about

slowing growth in China (with weaker PMI and slower industrial growth) and the strains

in its shadow banking system, the likely impact of continued taper of bond buying by

the Fed and the high volatility in currencies of Emerging Market economies, especially

those with high current account deficits (Turkey and South Africa). While India's external

fundamentals have improved since July 2013, it was not immune to this risk aversion.

There was heavy selling by asset allocators (ETFs and the like) in EM equity during

January. These investors are not stock pickers, and are usually less discriminating with

respect to fundamentals of specific countries or companies. The total redemption from

EM equity was about USD 12 Billion during the month, of which USD 6.3 Billion

went out in the last week itself. During the month, the net investment by FIIs in cash

equity was USD 80 million while domestic institutions took out USD 138 million.

(Insurance companies were buyers of USD 203 million while Mutual Funds were sellers

to the extent of USD 341 million). The Indian Rupee held up pretty well and was down

only 1.4% against the USD during the month.

During the month, the mid cap and small cap indices marginally underperformed the

large cap indices as given below. In terms of sector indices, the IT, Healthcare and

FMCG did well, while Autos, Banks, Metals and Industrials did badly. The IT companies'

results continued to meet or exceed expectations and the industry expects better volume

growth in Calendar Year 2014 over Calendar Year 2013. Rate sensitive sectors like

Banks and autos were impacted by the repo rate hike in January, which the market was

not anticipating. In addition, banks were also impacted by continuing asset quality

issues. Private sector banks are also showing some stress in their book. While PSU

banks continued to have slippages, some banks mentioned that they were bottoming

out on asset quality. However, we are yet cautious on asset quality as economic growth

is still weak. Four wheelers (both cars and Commercial vehicles) have had negative

volume growth in FY 14 to date which weighed on their performance.

Macroeconomic data has been mixed. While inflation (both CPI and WPI) has shown

improvement, the fiscal deficit, industrial production and exports have been challenging.

The CPI for December came in at 9.87% (previous month 11.2%) while WPI came in at

6.2% (previous month 7.5%) driven mainly by fall in vegetable prices. IIP for November

was (-) 2.1%, with consumer durables pulling down the number. Indian exports for the

month of December grew at 3.5% yoy, which is slower than the growth rate of 10.6%

in the past five months since the Rupee depreciation in July. However, the biggest

concern on the macro front is on the fiscal deficit. The fiscal deficit till December is 95%

of the full year target. The problem is on the revenue side with government receipts till

December being about 58% of the target for the full year (this number has ranged

around 65% in the past few years). The concern is that if GDP growth remains weak in

FY 15 too, revenues could be a challenge even in the next year. In other weak data, the

savings rate for the economy in FY 13 fell to 30% of GDP (31.3% in FY12).

Based on the corporate results that have come in, there have been upgrades in IT

Services, Consumer staples and Health Care sectors. There have been downgrades in

Telecom, Materials and some Industrials. In Telecom companies, the volume growth

has been tepid, while metals companies are impacted by lower global commodity prices.

While FY 14 is at an end, for FY 15 we expect an earnings growth of around 13% for

the BSE 30 companies.

Businessmen are currently in a wait and watch mode waiting for election results.

However, the government has cleared a number of projects and we could see project

execution picking up in the second half of the year. The markets are going to be

volatile leading up to the election, though we think a major correction in the broad

markets is unlikely.

During the month, we bought or added to our positions in Apollo Tyres, Ashok Leyland,

Bata India, BPCL, Cipla, Colgate Palmolive, Crompton Greaves, Finolex Cable, Godrej

Industries, Havells India, HCL Technologies, Kalpataru Power, L&T, Maruti Suzuki,

Motherson Sumi, National Aluminium, Sadbhav Engineering, Tata Motors and Ultra

Tech Cemco.

During the month, we sold or reduced our positions in Alembic Pharmaceuticals,

Aurobindo Pharma, Coal India, Cummins, Dabur, Divis Laboratories, Eros, Escorts,

Idea Cellular, Indian Bank, J K Tyre, Kaveri Seed, MT Educare, National Buildings

Construction Corp, NCC Ltd., Oracle Financial, Puravankara Projects, Spice Jet,

Tata Steel and UPL Ltd.

INVEST KNOWHOW January 201434

� STANDARD DEVIATION - Is the average deviation from the mean returns. It is an indication of volatility i.e. deviation from mean

returns. Lower the better.

• For instance a scheme that has a consistent four-year return of 3% would have a mean or average of 3%. The standard deviation for

this scheme would then be zero because the scheme's return in any given year does not differ from its four-year mean of 3%.

• On the other hand, a scheme that in each of the last four years returned -5%, 17%, 2% and 30% will have a mean return of 11%. The

scheme will also exhibit a high standard deviation because each year the return of the scheme differs from the mean return. This

scheme is therefore riskier because it fluctuates widely between negative and positive returns within a short period.

Calculation = Square Root of Variance. Where Variance is the average of the squared deviations from mean returns.

� BETA - Can be interpreted as percentage change in price of a scheme for every one percentage change in the market benchmark. For

example if a scheme's beta is 1.1 and the market is expected to go up/down by 10% then the scheme will move up/down by 11%.

Calculation = Covariance of Market and Scheme's Returns Divided by Variance of the Market. Where Covariance is the Deviation of

Mean Returns of Market multiplied by Deviation of Mean Returns of the scheme.

� JENSEN'S ALPHA - Gives the average return of the portfolio over and above the risk free rate and market determined return. This is the

addition by the fund manager over and above the market return and hence higher the better.

Calculation = Portfolio Return - (Risk Free Rate of Return + beta [market return - Risk Free Rate of Return]).

� SHARPE - Gives the returns per unit of risk. i.e. for every 1 unit of risk what is the returns of the scheme. For this purpose risk is defined

as standard deviation of the scheme. Higher the Sharpe, the better.

It signifies that scheme with a higher sharpe ratio generates returns taking lesser risk. In other words, the scheme is less volatile and

yet generating good returns. Thus, given same returns, the scheme with a higher Sharpe ratio offers a better avenue for investing.

Calculation = Average Scheme Return - Risk Free Rate of Return :_ Standard Deviation of the Scheme.

� PORTFOLIO TURNOVER - Portfolio turnover is a measure of how actively a fund manager trades the portfolio of your scheme. Expressed

in percentage or number of times, the inverse of a scheme's turnover ratio is the average holding period for a security in that scheme.

If a scheme has a 20 per cent turnover ratio, it would suggest that on average that scheme will hold a security for five years before

selling it. A scheme with a 200 per cent turnover ratio will change its portfolio in six months or in other words, replace the entire

holdings in its portfolio with new stocks in six months.

Calculation = Lower of sales or purchases divided by average AUM for last rolling 12 months.

Understanding Ratios & Risk Measures

++ ICRA has assigned credit risk rating of [ICRA]A1+mfs to Principal Cash Management Fund. The rating is the highest-credit-quality short-term rating assigned by ICRA to debt funds. It hasalso assigned the credit risk rating of [ICRA] AAAmfs to Principal Debt Opportunities Fund - Conservative Plan. The rating is the highest-credit-quality long term rating assigned by ICRA to debtfunds. Rating methodology used by ICRA is based on evaluating the inherent credit quality of the mutual funds portfolio. As a measure of the credit quality of a debt fund’s assets, ICRA usesthe concept of “credit scores”, based on ICRA’s assessment of credit risk associated with each exposure of the portfolio taking into account its maturity. To quantify the credit risk scores,ICRA uses its database of historical default rates for various rating categories for various maturity buckets. The credit risk ratings incorporate ICRA’s assessment of a debt fund's publishedinvestment objectives and policies, its management characteristics, and the creditworthiness of its investment portfolio. ICRA reviews relevant fund information on an ongoing basis to supportits published rating opinions. If the portfolio credit score meets the benchmark of the assigned rating during the review, the rating is retained. In an event that the benchmark credit score isbreached, ICRA gives a month's time to the debt fund manager to bring the portfolio credit score within the benchmark credit score. If the debt fund manager is able to reduce the portfoliocredit score within the benchmark credit score, the rating is retained. If the portfolio still continues to breach the benchmark credit score, the rating is revised to reflect the change in creditquality. The ratings should, however, not be construed as an indication of the prospective performance of the Mutual fund scheme or of volatility in its returns. ICRA ratings should not betreated as recommendation to buy, sell or hold the rated debt instruments. ICRA ratings are subject to a process of surveillance which may lead to a revision in ratings.
