Dear Customer,

Investors risk-sentiment needle, which had shifted towards the risk-off mode at the beginning of the year,

seems to have swung towards a seemingly risk-friendlier zone over the last month or so. Global markets had

taken a sharp nosedive through most of January 2016, as fears of deflation and economic slowdown ripped

through the markets. Oil prices were at a recent new low, Chinese Yuan witnessed heavy selling pressures,

many commodity prices saw a steep fall and the US Dollar and Gold appreciated. The ferocity of market fall

was such that it caught almost everyone unawares.

Just as things seemed dreary for markets, monetary easing statements by Bank of Japan (BoJ) and EuropeanCentral Bank (ECB)lifted market sentiments. Oil prices too began to see a sustained rise from sub-$30/bbl

fuelled by hopes of supply restrictions from both OPEC and non-OPEC producers. Peoples Bank of China

(PBoC) limited the fall of Yuan by reducing its forex reserves. Since the New Year break in February, stability

in Chinese markets and in the US dollar, have eased the strain on Yuan. More dovish Fed likely helped

propel equities higher. Domestically, an on-track fiscal budget for FY17 and announcements for debt-ridden

domestic steel sector added to market up-move.

A quick glance at some key data points published in 1QCY2016 indicates towards continued stability in Indias

economy. After three months of contraction, Index of Industrial Production (IIP) expanded by 2% YoY in Feb led

by a healthy growth in electricity production and mining output, though manufacturing remained lackluster.

Inflation data continued to surprise on the downside with March CPI coming at 4.8% YoY, a six-month low. India

received the highest ever annual FDI inflows in 2015 gross FDI inflows were up 31% and net inflows were up

60% as out bound FDI declined 37%YoY. Indias Q3 FY16 current account deficit (CAD) moderated to 1.3% of

GDP from 1.7% of GDP in Q2FY16as lower oil prices brought down the trade deficit.

Following the lackluster winter session of parliament last year, the reforms agenda made a come-back in thest

1 half of budget session. While both houses of parliament passed the Real estate regulator bill and the

National waterways bill, the Aadhaar bill was passed by Lower house. This has provided a renewed glimmer of

hope for passage of impending GST Bill and Bankruptcy Code.

RBI eased the policy rates by 25bps in the April meet and maintained an accommodative stance. Importantly,

it ushered in an era of liquidity neutral stance in the banking space (from liquidity deficit earlier). This move

could have raised the chances of a more efficient transmission of rates through the system.

As we begin our journey through the 2QCY2016, market participants seem to have made peace with vagaries

of global economies, for now. While these factors could possibly give short-term jitters to Indian markets, the

key levers that could influence markets over rest of the year (and perhaps beyond) would be strong revival in

corporate earnings growth, governments persistence to push key reforms (GST bill), good monsoons andrevival in capital expenditure by corporates.

We are delighted to bring you our latest issue of CitiChoice. This issue includes an update on the markets

along with the list of equity and fixed-income schemes that have been shortlisted using various qualitative

and quantitative parameters.

We would like to thank you for continuing to place your trust in us and look forward to your continued

Citi Economists maintained their growth estimates of 7.5% in FY16. March CPI decelerated to

4.83%YoY vs a revised 5.26% print last month, due to lower food prices. Following the lackluster

monsoon and winter session of parliament last year, the reforms agenda made a come-back in the first

half of budget session. Considering the technical spike from implementation of 7th pay commission

proposals, inflation could briefly breach the upper end of RBIs 4% +/- 2% range in the near term.

Hence a cautious stance may still be warranted. There could be guided depreciation on the currency to

prevent REER overvaluation. Expect INR to depreciate towards 69 over 6-12 months. 2016 could be a

year of consolidating a cyclical recovery in a challenging global environment. India is likely to remain

an attractive destination for investors given its relative macro out performance.

The budget should have a moderate market impact: overriding global backdrop, constrained budget

options & a lot being done outside the budget (Make in India, distribution, start-up/digital Indiaetc.).That said a controlled fisc, continued reform direction, some growth impetus, breaking the

parliament logjam (GST, Land-Bill, Bankruptcy code) should be enough to bias the equity market up.

Citi analysts are positive on the markets, however, have cut their year-end Sensex target to 27,000

(32,200 earlier), given earnings cut and revising the multiple to 15.5x (from 16x, in-line with long term

average) 1yr forward. O/W Financials, Energy, Pharma, Autos, Cement and Utilities. U/W Telecom,

Consumer Staples & Metals. Neutral on Industrials and IT.

SNAPSHOT

Despite an agreement on dealing with the refugee crisis at the EU summit in mid-March, we doubt that

the issue has been resolved. Implementation of the deal may be slow, with significant risks unravelling.

The ECB also announced a comprehensive package of measures at its March 10 meeting. We expect

that the transmission of this monetary easing could add between 0.3-0.4% to the level of GDP, and

between 0.1-0.2pp to the price level, by 2018. However, we doubt that it will be enough to achieve the

inflation target, hence requiring additional monetary policy support, probably as early as the

September 8 meeting. Nevertheless, Citi analysts think the ECBs latest policy actions are likely to

under-pin a more positive period for risk assets, including equities. We raise our end-2016 Stoxx target

from 360 to 380 (end-16E & end-17E P/E of 17.1x& 14.9x, end-16E & end-17E DY of 3.4% & 3.7%).

EURO AREA


Despite the additional drag created by heightened market-induced uncertainty, US economic activity

continues to expand at a moderate pace. Strong job gains continue to produce income growth that

supports spending. That said, the recent jump in consumer prices likely does not represent a

sustainable rebound in inflation. Along with recent FOMCs dovishness, Citi analysts have lowered our

projected number of rate increases this year to possibly one in September or even as late as December.

Looking at equities, S&P 500 companies will start reporting 1Q16 numbers soon. Earnings revision

momentum suggests that beaten up areas like Materials and Financials could get a further bounce. It

appears as if Banks, Diversified Financials, Materials and Pharma & Biotech as well as Tech Equipment

& Hardware could see some positive surprises given their poor expectations.

Nikkei -9.17%

Only the GFC and 2001 results seasons were worse; encouragingly, both subsequent results seasons

were less disappointing. This time around, the biggest percentage of FY15misses has come from

LatAm; Mexico was a large contributor to the disappointment, Brazil did better. Asia earnings also

disappointed, but to a lesser extent, with Korea and India having the most misses. EMEA was the onlyregion to surprise positively. Only Taiwan has earnings that are above its post-2000 trend. For Asia

overall, earnings are 30% below trend, and they are 63% below trend in EMEA and 68% below in

LatAm (all in US$ terms). By sector, utilities and tech outperformed even the defensives of telecoms,

cons staples and healthcare. Materials and energy are furthest from trend. As 2016 progresses, Citi

analysts believe that the base of EPS comparison will become easier.

EMERGING MARKETS


JAPAN

Citi analysts continue to expect the Bank of Japan (BoJ) may implement additional easing in the form

of further reduction in policy rates (from -0.1% currently to -0.3%) in July this year. Some marketparticipants expect that prospective downward revisions to the BoJs inflation projections will push

the BoJ to ease policy at its April meeting but we believe that the hurdles for action in April are high.

Most notably, the impact of the negative interest rate policy (NIRP) is uncertain and it will likely take

more time/data for the BoJ to get a stronger handle on this. At the sector level, we think NIRP is likely to

prove negative for banks and insurers and positive for electric power & gas, real estate, J-REITs,

transportation, and basic materials, among others.
