July 2016

Fixed Income Update for July 2016

Key Market Highlights:

• Yields continued to fall across various asset classes during the month. Comfortable

liquidity conditions, good progress of monsoons, fall in global bond yields and crude

oil prices were the key reasons.

• The ten year benchmark gilt closed at 7.16%, 29 bps lower than the previous

month. The ten year AAA Corporate bond benchmark closed at 8.10%, 25 bps

lower than previous month. The five year PSU AAA corporate bond benchmark

closed at 7.95%, 21 bps lower as compared to previous month. 10 year SDL spreads

contracted by 5 bps to remain in a range of 45-50 bps during the month.

• 1 year CD rates fell by 23 bps to close at 7.45%. 1 year T-bill yield fell 15 bps to

close at 6.72%.

• Brent Crude oil prices feel during the month and closed at USD 41 per barrel as

compared to USD 48 per barrel previous month.

• INR appreciated during the month and closed at 66.99 as against 67.52 in previous

month. For the month of July, FIIs were net buyers in the debt market to the tune of

` 7,000 crore.

• The ten year benchmark US treasury yield ended marginally lower at 1.45%.

• June WPI data release came at 1.62% as compared to 0.79% in previous month.

CPI for June came at 5.77% compared to 5.76% in previous month.

• May Industrial production (IIP) growth was low at 1.2% yoy.

• The fiscal deficit in April-June 2016 was 61% of the FY2017 budget estimate with

gross tax collections growing 30.6%, higher than the 11.9% growth budgeted in

FY2017.

• Till July 27, cumulative rainfall was 1% surplus with the weekly rainfall 4% below

normal. On a regional basis, most of India moved to normal to excess rainfall with

parts of western India and north-east India remaining deficient.

• Banking system liquidity turned into surplus mode and averaged ` 10,000 crore

approx. combined for daily LAF, term and variable LAF and MSF. Overnight rates

remained stable around 6.3% - 6.5% during the month.

Outlook:

• We expect banking system liquidity surplus to turn into deficit during the month of

August. We forecast the deficit to be in range of ` 20,000 crore to 38,000 crore

approx. RBI may conduct OMOs in dated gilts to inject liquidity.

• The ten year benchmark g-sec yield is expected to trade in a range of 7.10-7.25%

during the month. The five year AAA Corporate bond benchmark is expected to

trade in a range of 7.85%-8.10%.

• Money market rates are expected to remain stable with slight upward bias on stable

liquidity conditions.

• In the next RBI Monetary Policy review scheduled on 9th August 2016, we expect

RBI to keep key rates unchanged and stress caution on inflation. There might be

clarity on MPC (Monetary Policy Council) selection.

• Other important events to watch out during the month are appointment of new RBI

governor and progress of monsoons.

Equity Markets

Review of Equity Market for the Month of July 2016

The Emerging Markets as a category rode past concerns the Brexit vote had raised, and

did well in the month of July, outperforming the Developed markets. The MSCI EM

Index (USD) was up 4.7% during the month while MSCI World (USD) index was up

4.1%. The rally was driven by strong inflows in EMs, both in fixed income and equity

markets. The search for yield drove strong flows in to EM debt, which saw inflows of

USD 13.6 Billion, the highest ever figure for a single month. CYTD, EM debt has seen

inflows of USD 23.3 Billion. Likewise, EM equity saw inflows of USD 10.1 Billion,

the highest inflow number for the past two years. CYTD, EM equity has however seen

outflows of USD 2.1 Billion. The Indian markets too continued the uptrend of June,

with the Nifty up 4.2% during the month. FII flows were strong, with net inflows of

USD 1.7 Billion, taking the net inflows for calendar YTD to USD 4.6 Billion. Locally, both

insurance companies (- 862 Million) and Mutual funds (-41 Million) were sellers.

The Rupee was up about 0.8% during the month, broadly in line with the move in the

Dollar index, which was down about 0.6%. In global news, the FOMC statement

(July 27) observed that labor markets have “strengthened,” labor utilization has

increased, and, notably, “near-term risks to the economic outlook have diminished.”

These could begin to lay the groundwork for a hike going forward, provided the data

continues to be strong. On July 29, the Bank of Japan kept the pace of government

bond purchases and the overnight call rate (-0.1%) unchanged, which somewhat

disappointed the global markets.

In terms of sector performance, metals and oil and gas sectors stood out. The metals

were led by recovery in global metal prices with aluminium and zinc particularly

showing strong momentum. Iron ore prices were up nearly 7% during the month.

Among energy companies, the Oil marketing companies had a good run as GRMs were

expected to hold steady. Also, the government has permitted oil companies to raise

prices of Kerosene by ` 0.25/ litre per month. This had a strong signaling effect to the

markets. The consumer goods companies did not do very well as their results showed

that demand growth remained weak. IT stocks did poorly in backdrop of weak earnings

and heightened global uncertainty post Brexit led to investors being cautious.

In macroeconomic news, the IIP for May came in at 1.2%, after a contraction of 1.3%

in April. While capital goods showed a negative growth, consumer durables were up

6%. The CPI for June was virtually flat at 5.8%, while the WPI was positive for the

third month in a row at 1.6%. The CPI inflation was driven primarily by food items

(pulses, sugar and vegetables) though the core inflation was lower at 4.5%. The rising

WPI however could going forward impact the companies’ profit margins unless they

take price hikes. The gold prices (USD) were up slightly at 2% during the month.

In trade data, exports growth turned positive after being negative for 18 consecutive

months. Exports for June were at USD 22.5 Billon (+1.8%). The monsoons remained

good and the sense is that rural demand should be positively impacted after the kharif

harvesting season.

In the earnings season so far, volume numbers have not shown any meaningful

improvement. However, EBITDA margins for non-financials have improved as result of

lower input prices. From the results declared so far, the earnings have been marginally

downgraded.

++ ICRA has assigned credit risk rating of [ICRA]A1+mfs to Principal Low Duration Fund. The rating is the highest-credit-quality short-term rating assigned by ICRA to debt funds. Ratingmethodology 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 uses the concept of “creditscores”, 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 historicaldefault rates for various rating categories for various maturity buckets. The credit risk ratings incorporate ICRA’s assessment of a debt fund's published investment objectives and policies, itsmanagement characteristics, and the creditworthiness of its investment portfolio. ICRA reviews relevant fund information on an ongoing basis to support its published rating opinions. If the portfoliocredit score meets the benchmark of the assigned rating during the review, the rating is retained. In an event that the benchmark credit score is breached, ICRA gives a month's time to the debt fundmanager to bring the portfolio credit score within the benchmark credit score. If the debt fund manager is able to reduce the portfolio credit score within the benchmark credit score, the rating isretained. If the portfolio still continues to breach the benchmark credit score, the rating is revised to reflect the change in credit quality. The ratings should, however, not be construed as an indicationof the prospective performance of the Mutual fund scheme or of volatility in its returns. ICRA ratings should not be treated 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.

How to Read Factsheet

FUND MANAGER - An employee of the asset management company such as a mutual fund or life insurer, who manages investments ofthe scheme. He is usually part of a larger team of fund managers and research analysts.

APPLICATION AMOUNT FOR FRESH SUBSCRIPTION - This is the minimum investment amount for a new investor in a mutual fund scheme.

MINIMUM ADDITIONAL AMOUNT - This is the minimum investment amount for an existing investor in a mutual fund scheme.

YIELD TO MATURITY - The Yield to Maturity or the YTM is the rate of return anticipated on a bond if held until maturity. YTM isexpressed as an annual rate. The YTM factors in the bond's current market price, par value, coupon interest rate and time to maturity.

SIP - SIP or systematic investment plan works on the principle of making periodic investments of a fixed sum. It works similar to arecurring bank deposit. For instance, an investor may opt for an SlP that invests ` 500 every 15th of the month in an equity fund for aperiod of three years.

NAV - The NAV or the net asset value is the total asset value per unit of the mutual fund after deducting all related and permissibleexpenses. The NAV is calculated at the end of every business day. It is the value at which the investor enters or exits the mutual fund.

BENCHMARK - A group of securities, usually a market index, whose performance is used as a standard or benchmark to measureinvestment performance of mutual funds, among other investments. Some typical benchmarks include the Nifty, Sensex, BSE200,BSE500, 10-Year G-sec.

ENTRY LOAD - A mutual fund may have a sales charge or load at the time of entry and/or exit to compensate the distributor/agent.Entry load is charged at the time an investor purchases the units of a mutual fund. The entry load is added to the prevailing NAV at thetime of investment. For instance, if the NAV is ` 100 and the entry load is 1%, the investor will enter the fund at ` 101.

Note: SEBI, vide circular dated June 30, 2009 has abolished entry load and mandated that the upfront commission to distributors will be paid by theinvestor directly to the distributor, based on his assessment of various factors including the service rendered by the distributor.

EXIT LOAD - Exit load is charged at the time an investor redeems the units of a mutual fund. The exit load is deducted from the prevailingNAV at the time of redemption. For instance, if the NAV is ` 100 and the exit load is 1%, the redemption price would be ` 99 per unit.

MODIFIED DURATION - Modified duration is the price sensitivity and the percentage change in price for a unit change in yield.

STANDARD DEVIATION - Standard deviation is a statistical measure of the range of an investment’s performance. When a mutual fundhas a high standard deviation, its means its range of performance is wide, implying greater volatility.

SHARPE RATIO - The Sharpe Ratio, named after its founder, the Nobel Laureate William Sharpe, is a measure of risk-adjusted returns.It is calculated using standard deviation and excess return to determine reward per unit of risk.

BETA - Beta is a measure of an investment’s volatility vis-a-vis the market. Beta of less than 1 means that the security will be lessvolatile than the market. A beta of greater than 1 implies that the security's price will be more volatile than the market.

AUM - AUM or assets under management refers to the recent / updated cumulative market value of investments managed by a mutualfund or any investment firm.

HOLDINGS - The holdings or the portfolio is a mutual fund’s latest or updated reported statement of investments/securities. These areusually displayed in terms of percentage to net assets or the rupee value or both. The objective is to give investors an idea of wheretheir money is being invested by the fund manager.

NATURE OF SCHEME - The investment objective and underlying investments determine the nature of the mutual fund scheme. Forinstance, a mutual fund that aims at generating capital appreciation by investing in stock markets is an equity fund or growth fund.Likewise, a mutual fund that aims at capital preservation by investing in debt markets is a debt fund or income fund. Each of thesecategories may have sub-categories.
