Earnings bouncing backWe believe that 2015 will be another good year for Indian
equities. The earnings downgrade cycle of the past six years(FY09-14) will likely end in FY15 when actual growth shouldmatch consensus estimates in the beginning of the year. Weexpect to see earnings upgrades from FY16 onwards. Keymacro factors are already showing signs of turning around.Indian households are expected to emerge as big buyers ofequities in coming years, making Indian markets lesssusceptible to FII flows. Valuations are reasonable vis--visthe historical and global context.
Earnings are depressed; recovery can be sharp: For BSE500non-financial companies, Ebitda and PAT margins are at a 15-yearlow, net debt/equity is at a 15-year high and ROE has nearly halvedfrom the peak level of FY07. A cyclical upturn will drive the earningsbounce back, reinforced by pro-business initiatives of the newgovernment. The recent sharp fall in prices of crude oil and industrialcommodities can save India more than $30bn annually, equal to thecountrys current account deficit in FY14.
Key macro factors are showing signs of turning around: Expectations abound of acceleration in GDP growth, narrowing offiscal and current account deficit, fall in inflation, reduction ininterest rates, stable INR, growth in GFCF, and an increase inhousehold savings. After going through great stress in the past threeyears, Banks and Financials, the largest constituent of Indian equity
indices, should record an improvement in asset quality and higherearnings growth.
Domestics to emerge as major buyers of equity: Indianhouseholds are expected to emerge as big buyers of equities. Theyhardly participated in equities in the past six years. We estimatehouseholds to invest about $74bn over the next three years (FY16-FY18E) versus $40bn in the past six years (FY10-FY15E). This shouldmake the Indian markets less susceptible to FII flows.
Valuations reasonable vis--vis historical and global context: Niftys current one-year forward PE of 14.9x is slightly above itslong-term average of 14.3x. We believe this would appear morereasonable as we enter an earnings upgrade cycle. Valuations are inline with long-term average premium/discount to global indices suchas S&P500 and Euro STOXX600. The current trailing PEx is wellbelow the peak PEx of the last three bull runs that ended in Feb00,Dec07, and Nov10.

Key Macro TrendsRecent past trend FY1617E
GDP growth to accelerate Sub5% growth in FY13 and FY14, non agri
GDP growth at lowest level in the past 20 years
Expected to grow at 67%
Fiscal deficit to narrow Declined to 4.5% in FY14 from the peak level of 7.9% in FY09 perceived visually rather than the actual reality
Expected to remain between 3.5%4.0%
Current Account Deficit to narrow
Reduced to 1.7% in FY14 from the peak level of 4.7% in FY13
Expected to reduce further primarily due to falling commodity prices
Inflation to fall CPI has averaged above 8% for the past six years and is currently at ~6%
Expected to average ~6% over the next few months, with a downward bias over next two years
Interest rates
to
decline
Bank
PLRs
have
risen
100bps
in
the
past
three years. In contrast, 10year GSec yields remained unchanged in this period but they fell by 90bps in CY2014
Policy rates
expected
to
decline
by
100bps
in
next 12 mths and 150bps in next 24 mths. With liquidity improving, banks should pass on the reduction in policy rate to borrowers
Stable Rupee Depreciated by 17% in the past three years Decline in CAD and buoyant outlook for capital flows will keep rupee largely stable; we expect an average 34% annual depreciation going ahead
Bank loan growth to pickup
Loan growth has decelerated for the past four years and the current growth of 12% YoY is the lowest in past two decades
Expected to grow in mid teens at 2.5x real GDP growth
Gross Fixed Capital Formation growth to accelerate
Near 0% growth in the past three years, the worst phase in the past 25 years
Expected to grow at 510% annually
Consumption growth to remain slow
Consumption, in particular rural consumption, was the key driver of economic growth in the past 45 years
Rural consumption is likely to continue to moderate as rural wage growth and pace of MSP increases have slowed down
Agriculture growth unlikely to accelerate
Agriculture growth has averaged ~4% in the last few years
Agriculture growth is unlikely to accelerate and should continue at its trend growth rate of 34%
Household savings to rise Dropped from peak of 25% in FY10 to 22% in the last two years; within that, the share of financial savings dropped from 48% to 35%
Expect a gradual pickup as real interest rates become positive; the share of financial savings is also expected to rise as returns from physical assets have become relatively unattractive
Fuel subsidy to decline Seemed out of control and peaked at 1.6% of GDP in FY13
Expected to be 0.6% of GDP in FY15 and fall further to 0.3% next year, assuming oil prices remain at the current level
Total subsidies remain high
Aggregate subsidies averaged 2.6% of GDP during FY0914
Aggregate subsidy likely to fall to 1.8% of GDP in FY16, primarily due to fall in fuel subsidies, whereas food and fertiliser subsidies would continue to rise; shift to AADHAARbased distribution can bring down other subsidies

Corporate profits are depressed; recovery can besharp
An analysis of BSE500 non-financial companies shows that aggregateEbitda and PAT margins are at a 15-year low, net debt/equity is at a15-year high, and ROE has nearly halved from its peak in FY07. Wesee considerable scope for expansion of PAT margins and ROE forcompanies in the Industrials, Materials, Real Estate, Telecom, andUtilities sectors.
Only 273 non-financial companies out of the current BSE500constituents were part of the index 15 years ago. In our view, thissample is a fairly good representation of the investible universe forforeign and domestic institutional investors.
For these 273 companies, sales growth fell to single digits in the pasttwo years from 20-25% growth YoY for much of the last decade.

Net debt/equity is at a 15-year high. It troughed at 0.3x in FY05 andsince then has more than doubled to 0.7x in end-FY14. It isespecially high for Telecom (2.6x) and Industrials (1.4x).

Interest expense/Ebitda at an average of 14.5% for the universe, isat a 12-year high. It remains extremely high for Real Estate (69%),Industrials (52%), Telecom (30%), Consumer Discretionary (24%)and Utilities (22%) sectors. The actual interest burden would bemuch higher, since a large part of interest expenses are capitalisedby companies in these sectors.

Financials under great stress, asset quality andearnings growth to improve
Financials, the single largest component of Indian equity indices,have been under great stress in the past three years. NPAs andrestructured loans have ballooned and earnings growth has sloweddown due to slowness in loan growth and fee income growth andhigher loan loss provision (LLP) charges. We expect asset qualityconcerns to ease and earnings growth to accelerate.

PAT forecast and earnings upgrade potential forIIFL coverage universe
For 159 companies under IIFL coverage for which financial data isavailable since FY09, we forecast acceleration in aggregate PATgrowth to 18.6% YoY in FY16 and 17.6% YoY in FY17, from only 9%Cagr in the previous three years (FY12-FY15ii).
We forecast higher PAT growth for companies in the ConsumerDiscretionary, Energy, Financials, Industrials, Materials and RealEstate sectors. We believe that there is potential for earningsupgrades in the Consumer Discretionary, Financials andIndustrials sectors. In addition, the IT sector may seeearnings upgrades in case of gradual depreciation in INR.
INR depreciation has a much larger impact on bottom lines of ITcompanies than any other sector. For example, an x% depreciationof INR has a 2-3x% impact on PAT of IT companies versus 0.5x%impact on PAT of Pharma companies.

Falling commodity prices A major boost for India
Prices of major commodities have softened 5-40% YTD and aredown nearly 20-70% from their ten-year peak. Prices of crude oil,hard commodities, and agricultural products have all declined. Priceshave declined significantly in CY14 YTD: Brent crude was down 47%,Newcastle coal fell 27%, rubber corrected 30%, palm oil slipped23%, and copper slid 12%.
This is a significant positive development for India since thecountrys net imports of commodities were at $178bn in FY14 (9.5%of GDP), including crude oil, industrial commodities, coal, andprecious metals. A 10% average decline in prices of thesecommodities can halve the countrys CAD.
Indias net oil import bill is estimated to fall from $102bn in FY14 to$85bn in FY15 and further to $75bn in FY16.
The BBG commodity index declined for five years in a row and iscurrently 55% below its 10-year peak. Economic slowdown indeveloped nations and China has reduced demand for commoditiesand softened prices.

Indias CAD expected to moderate sharply in FY15
In FY14, India was a net importer of crude oil and petroleumproducts worth US$102bn and of precious metals worth US$33bn. Itwas a large net importer of coal and coke (US$16.4bn), iron andsteel, ores, scrap (US$8.2bn), fertilisers (US$6.5bn), non-ferrousmetals (US$5.4bn), paper and paper products (US$3.9bn), andrubber (US$2.1bn). In aggregate, these commodity importsamounted to US$178bn or 9.5% of GDP. Indias current CAD ofUS$32bn or 1.7% of GDP in FY14 is expected to sharply moderate inFY15.

Domestics to emerge as major buyers of equities,after a gap of six years
In the past six years (FY10-FY15E), Indian households invested anestimated US$40bn into equities at an average annual rate of$6.7bn. This included direct equity purchase and purchases throughmutual funds and life insurance. During the same period, FIIs inflowsamounted to US$108bn at an average annual rate of $18bn. Thisexcessive dependence on FIIs is likely to change as domesticinvestors warm up to equities.
We estimate households to invest $74bn over the next three years(FY16-FY18E) at an average annual rate of nearly $25bn. Two keyassumptions here are: 1) a slight pickup in household savings ratefrom 20.3% of GDP in FY14 to 23.5% in FY18 (it was 25.2% of GDPin FY10); and 2) increase in share of equity investments from 1.6%of total household savings in FY14 to 5.0% in FY18 (it was 5.0% inFY08).
The last time Indian households were bullish on equities was in FY08.In that year, 52% of household savings went into financial assets(they have since fallen to 35% in FY14) and an estimated 5.0% oftotal savings went into equities (they fell to 1.6% in FY14). In FY16,when we expect households to again warm up to equities in a bigway, Indias nominal GDP is estimated at Rs137tn (US$2.2tn atcurrent exchange rate) versus Rs50tn in FY08. In other words, thesize of GDP in FY16 would be 2.7x that of FY08 and so would be thesize of household savings and potential flows into equities.

New paper supply still muted; can rise significantly to absorbdomestic and FII inflows: Primary equity issuance has remainedmuted in the past two years, after peaking in FY08. Given its currentsize, the market can easily absorb a much higher level of new papersupply, including divestment of PSU stakes by the government. Newpaper supply as a percentage of year-end market capitalisation issignificantly below the previous peak level.

These valuations are based on assumption of EPS growth of 20% forFY16 and 15% for FY17 for the Nifty. As discussed in the earliersections, these earnings growth forecasts are rather conservativeand do not build in sufficient economic recovery in FY16. Companiesare still not confident of a strong recovery in FY16 and are providing
muted guidance.For the past six years (FY09-FY14), actual earnings growth wasbelow consensus estimates in the beginning of the year. FY15 willlikely see actual earnings growth in line with consensus estimates inthe beginning of the year. We expect to enter an earnings upgradecycle from FY16 onwards.
Figure 34: Consensus estimates in year beginning versus actual earnings growth
Source: Bloomberg, IIFL Research. Based on Bloomberg consensus estimate. *for FY15 current estimates versus beginning of the year estimate
Nifty forward PEx and PBx are not significantly above their long-termaverages even on the current earnings forecasts. As earningsupgrades come through, valuations would appear more reasonable inhindsight and continue to propel the market to higher levels.
Current bull-run has long way to go
The Indian markets have experienced six major bull runs since 1991,including the current one, which technically started in June 2012.Having run for 30 months, it is already the second longest runningbull-run after the 57-month long bull-run between April 2003 andJanuary 2008.
However, in terms of returns, the current bull-run has so fardelivered the least upside among all the previous bull-runs. The BSESensex has risen 67% since its bottom in June 2012, versus 611% inthe biggest bull run of Apr03-Jan08, and between 100-300% inother previous bull-runs.

Sector and stock picks
Key overweight sectors:
1. Financials Play on falling interest rates and improved business
and consumer confidence, resulting in higher loan growth and feeincome and lower loan-loss provision charges.
2. Autos Play on falling interest rates, soft oil prices, and rise inconsumer confidence, resulting in higher volume growth andbetter operating leverage and pricing power.
3. Information Technology Play on sustained strongdiscretionary IT spend in developed countries and possibletailwind from INR depreciation (INR depreciation has 2-3x impacton the bottom line), resulting in strong USD revenue andstronger INR bottom line.
4. Cement Play on pickup in construction and acceleration in
demand on one hand and lagging new capacity additions on theother, resulting in higher capacity utilisation and better pricing.
5. Industrials Play on rising business confidence and proactivegovernment policies resulting in acceleration in new order inflowsand faster execution of existing orders.
Key underweight sectors:
1. Consumer Staples Consumption growth is expected to remainweak due to slowing rural income and cut back in governmentexpenditure. Ebitda/PAT margins and ROE are at peak levels,leaving little scope for improvement in the event of an economic
upcycle. 2. Energy Earnings momentum is unpredictable and likely to
remain weak. Valuations are cheap but the timing of re-ratingtriggers is uncertain.
3. Metals Global demand and prices are expected to remain soft.In addition, companies in this sector face execution and rawmaterial sourcing hurdles, which the new government will slowlyaddress; one would need patience.

Annexure I - Governments reform agendaKey areas, which we believe are top priorities of the Modigovernment where work has already started or is likely to start inthe near future include:
1. Subsidy reforms The government spent 2.3% of GDP on fuel,food and fertiliser subsidy in FY14. The subsidy bill is expected to fallto 1.9% of GDP in FY15 and further to 1.6% of GDP in FY16 due tolower global commodity prices, deregulation of diesel prices, and themove towards direct benefit transfer on LPG. The next logical stepwill be better targeting the recipients of these subsidies, to bringdown the subsidy bill further.
2. PSU reforms They aim to provide greater autonomy to PSUmanagements. Eventually, they would work towards a holdingcompany structure for all government stakes in PSUs to detach themfrom direct government interference.
3. Power Sector reforms They aim to strengthen powerproduction, transmission and distribution, fortify the SEBs, augmenttransmission lines, and fast-track execution of slow-movinggeneration projects. A proposal has been mooted to extend thefinancial restructuring package to SEBs until date; earlier, thepackage was for accumulated losses until FY12.
4. Pooling of imported and domestic gas and coal prices - CoalIndia may import coal to overcome the near-term demand-supplygap. Pooling of coal prices would ensure that tariffs are kept within
limits. Similarly prices of domestic gas and imported RNLG may bepooled for power plants. This would ensure that enough fuel isavailable for upcoming and existing power plants.
5. Coal sector reforms Auctioning of 72 coalmines de-allocatedby Supreme Court in Sep14 is expected to be completed by Mar15.Auctioning of the balance 140 odd mines would happen in phases.The government has set a target to raise Coal Indias productionfrom 462MT in FY14 to 925MT in FY20 (12% Cagr) and Indias totalproduction from 565MT in FY14 to 1200MT in FY20 (12% Cagr).Mine-wise plans are being drawn. Government is seeking to modifythe Coal Nationalisation Act to allow third-party sales by the private
sector.6. Labour reforms - Stringent labour laws, which place significantrestrictions on terminating employment and entail cumbersomecompliance process, are a major constraint for the manufacturingsector. The government has initiated labour reforms process withtwo key steps aimed to remove discretionary powers of labourinspectors and create transparency in use of labour rules. Thegovernment has also proposed doing away with stringent penalprovisions in some labour laws.
7. Amendment to Land Acquisition Act This needs to beamended for faster land acquisition for industrial and infrastructureprojects.
8. Amendment to Companies Act, 2013 Since the newcompany law came into effect on April 1, 2014, the government has

made 45-odd changes and has proposed 14 more changes. Thesechanges pertain to provisions in related-party transactions, corporatesocial responsibility, issue of consolidated financial statements, andthe role of directors and key management personnel. These changesare driven by calls from the industry, auditors, and consultants, to
ease the environment to do business. 9. Goods and Services Tax (GST) Constitutional Amendment Billin this regard is expected to be introduced in the Parliament. There isa high probability of GST being implemented from April 1, 2016.
10. Infrastructure build-up Roads, Railways, Airports, andUrban Infra are among areas that are likely to see major policyinitiatives. National Highway Authority of India (NHAI) hasaccelerated tendering and awarding of new road projects. Pace ofwork on Dedicated Freight Corridors (DFC) is picking up. Thegovernments vision of new industrial corridors and smart cities istranslating into reality.
11. 3G spectrum availability to improve The Ministry ofDefence has agreed to release 15MHz of 2100MHz spectrum. Thiswill increase availability of 2100MHz spectrum by 75%. If 2100MHzis auctioned together with 900MHz, it would be positive for telcosbecause: 1) 2) higher spectrum supply would keep spectrum pricescooler; and 2) they would ease capacity constraints at a time whendata traffic is increasing rapidly. It would also be critical for enablingthe government to meet its budgeted telecom receipts of Rs455bn inFY15.
12. Stable and predictable tax regime - A High Level Committee(HLC) has been set up to provide a stable and predictable taxationregime with the objective of restoring investor confidence. The HLCwill interact with trade and industry and ascertain areas where clarityon tax laws is required. The HLC would then providerecommendations to the Central Board of Direct Taxes(CBDT)/Central Board of Excise and Customs (CBEC), which wouldthereafter be obliged to make changes and provide the necessaryclarifications and circulars within two months.
13. Ease of doing business From special courts to settlecommercial disputes in Delhi and Mumbai to a unique identitynumber for all firms and three forms instead of 17 for imports and
exports, the Prime Ministers Office (PMO) has listed out 36 steps tobe undertaken by various ministries by Jan-15 end as part of astrategy to propel India up the ranking in the Ease of DoingBusiness.

ICICI Bank (ICICIB) is well poised to benefit from recovery inthe economy and flexible structuring of long-term projectloans. This would lower risk of infrastructure loans. Strongcapitalisation ratios would allow ICICIB to exploit growthopportunities and deliver market share gains over themedium term. Robust earnings and sharp increase in ROE of190bps over the medium term are likely to provide significantupside to the stock price over the next 12-18 months.Improvement in subsidiaries performance too would be acatalyst for the stock.
Well poised to benefit from recovery in operatingenvironment: Improvement in macro-economic conditions andrenewed focus on expanding the retail lending franchise should helpICICIB to achieve higher-than-industry loan growth. Expandingmargins and uptick in non-interest income growth would boostrevenue growth. An enabling regulatory environment for resolutionof distressed assets, particularly in the infrastructure segment, wouldallow the bank to adopt flexible loan structuring and lower the riskprofile of assets over the medium term.
Robust earnings growth, sharp increase in ROE likely: Strongcapitalization places ICICIB well to exploit growth opportunities,deliver market share gains, and stronger earnings growth. ICICIB is
set to deliver 19% earnings Cagr over FY15-17, driven byacceleration in loan growth, increase in contribution of non-interestincome, sustained operating efficiency, and stable asset quality. Thebank is likely to record sharp increase in ROE of 190bps over thesame period.
Strong capitalization, attractive valuation to drive upside: High tier I CAR places ICICIB well even under the new capital rules(Basel III). Earnings growth would be non-dilutive despite highercapital requirements kicking in through FY19. Trading at 2.2X FY16iiP/B, ICICIB is attractively valued, given non-dilutive earnings growthand increasing ROE. In our SOTP, the bank contributes to 85% andlife insurance 7.5% of the value. Valuations of non-bankingsubsidiaries should increase significantly and aid in sustaining strongreturns over the next 12-months.

HCL Technologies BUYStrong growth, cheap valuations
Institutional Equities
A lacklustre growth at HCL Techs non-infrastructure businesswas a key issue over the past three years (revenue Cqgr ofless than 1% over 4QFY12-1QFY14). However, this haschanged over the past year. The non-infrastructurebusinesses contributed to 55% of incremental revenue (vs.20% over 1QFY13-1QFY14). Deal wins continue to be strong(USD6bn over the past five quarters). These factors highlightthe underlying strength in business traction. Consequently,we expect HCLTs revenue growth to be among the best inIndian IT over FY15-17 (13% Cagr). Despite such robustgrowth, valuations are the cheapest in the peer group (13.5xFY16ii PER). We expect the stock to re-rate. BUY.
Growth is increasingly diversified: Infrastructure service (34% ofrevenue) was the key revenue driver for HCL Tech during FY13/14. Alacklustre market for ERP services (16% of revenue) and increasingcommoditization in ADM services (28% of revenue) were among thekey headwinds for HCLTs other services. Over the past one year,growth in the non-infrastructure business has improved. A cyclicalrecovery in engineering services (17% of revenue), better crossselling of ADM services, and strong demand for analytics serviceshave resulted in better growth. The strong deal wins (USD6bn overthe past five quarters) also indicate that the underlying businesstraction remains strong.
Benefiting from early entry into Europe: Over the past twoyears, European business grew 7-22% for the top-4 Indian ITcompanies, whereas US business grew only 3-14%. Low penetrationof offshoring and increased local presence of Indian IT have been thekey reasons for better growth in Europe. HCLT was an early moverwith the acquisition of Axon. Europe accounts for 32% of HCLTsrevenue now and should remain a key growth driver.
Cheapest valuations among large caps: We believe HCLTsrevenue growth to be among the best in Indian IT. Margins are likelyto be stable over FY15-17, following a sharp increase over the pastthree years. We envisage robust 15% EPS Cagr over FY15-17ii.
Despite such strong fundamentals, valuations (13.5x FY16ii PER) arethe cheapest in the peer group. HCLT is our top pick in IT services.

Maruti Suzuki BUY
Ideally positioned for recovery
Institutional Equities
Maruti is the best auto OEM play on macro-economic recoveryin India. Following flat volumes for the past four years, weexpect car sales to bounce back, led by high pent-up demand,economic recovery, and deceleration in car ownership costs.Marutis strong product pipeline, coupled with lowercompetitive intensity, should help it consolidate itsleadership. Margins are likely to expand from the currentlevels, as demand growth would reduce discounts. Weak JPYwould help reduce import costs and aid margins. BUY.
Car industry showing initial signs of recovery; we expectacceleration in CY15: The passenger car industry is showing signsof recovery (up 3% YTD FY15) after remaining flat over FY11-FY14.An economic recovery, fall in ownership costs (fuel, interest cost)and high pent-up demand would drive improvement in demand. Weforecast industry volumes to grow at 15% Cagr over FY15-FY17.
Marutis competitive positioning extremely strong: Successfulnew models and a strong rural presence have helped Maruti improveits market share from a low of 38% in FY12 to 45% YTD FY15. Weexpect Marutis competitive positioning to remain strong over themedium term, driven by a pipeline of 4-5 new models scheduled forlaunch over the next 18 months. On the other hand, competitionseems to have taken the foot off the pedal, especially in the smallcar segment (Marutis forte). A sharp reduction in pricing premium of
petrol over diesel would work in Marutis favour as it has a muchhigher market share in the petrol segment than in diesel.
Margins set to improve: Margins are likely to expand from currentlevels, as demand growth would reduce discounts (average discountat 5% of ASP vs. 2.5-3.0% normally) and bring in operatingleverage. Marutis high import costs are likely to come down due tofocus on component localization as well as due to weakness in JPY.
Expect 30% EPS Cagr over FY14-17: A combination of industryrecovery, market share gains and margin expansion should drive30% EPS Cagr over FY14-17. We expect FCF generation to be strong(FCF=PAT in FY16, FY17), especially given that Suzuki is likely tofund Marutis capacity expansion in India.
