Fixed Income Update for May 2015

Key Market Highlights:

• Yields exhibited a mixed trend during the month with gilt and money market

yields falling and corporate bond yields rising. A new ten year benchmark G-sec

was introduced which was issued 17-18 bps lower to the existing benchmark at

7.72%. It ended the month at 7.64%.

• Brent Crude oil prices exhibited stability and ended the month at USD 63.89 per

barrel.

• INR exhibited weakening trend and closed the month at 63.82 as compared to

63.42 in March end. For the month of May, FIIs turned sellers in the debt market

with net sales of ` 6700 crores.

• The ten year AAA Corporate bond benchmark closed at 8.40%, 3 bps lower than

previous month. The five year AAA corporate bond benchmark closed at 8.40%,

3 bps higher as compared to previous month.

• US treasury yields further rose during the month with the ten year US Treasury

trading at 2.12%, 10 bps higher than previous month.

• 1 year CD rates fell by 22 bps to close at 8.17%. 1 year T-bill rate fell 14 bps to

close at 7.76%.

• April WPI data release came at -2.65% as compared to -2.33% as in previous

month. CPI for April came at 4.87% compared to 5.25% in previous month.

• March industrial production (IIP) growth rose to 2.1% yoy reflecting some pickup

in industrial activity.

• Liquidity deficit during the month increased and averaged ` 1,05,000 crore as

compared to ` 83,000 crore approx in the previous month combined for daily LAF,

term LAF and MSF. Overnight rates remained stable around 7.50% -7.70%

during the month.

Outlook:

• We expect RBI to reduce key rates by 25 bps and also cut SLR but 25 bps in the

forthcoming Monetary Policy Review.

• We expect the new ten year benchmark G-sec to trade in a range of 7.55% to

7.75% during the month. The five year AAA PSU corporate bond benchmark is

expected to trade in a range of 8.25 to 8.50%.

• Banking system liquidity deficit is expected to be lower on account of higher gilt

maturities in the range of ` 60,000 crore to 80,000 crore for the month.

• Short term money market yields upto 3 month maturity are expected to remain

range bound barring any unforeseen tightness in liquidity. We expect the 3 month

CD rate to trade in range of 7.75-8.30%. Rates may trade towards the lower band

if rate cut happens.

Fund Manager Commentary

Equity Markets

Review of Equity Market for the Month of May 2015

The equity markets were up in the month of May, after the weak performance in the

last two months. The Nifty, Sensex and MSCI India (in USD), were all up about 3%

during the month. MSCI India outperformed both MSCI EM (-4%) and MSCI Asia Pac

Ex-Japan (-3%). In sector performance, the IT, Automobiles and Oil and Gas sectors

outperformed, while metals, consumer goods and financials didn't fare as well. IT stocks

were boosted by continued weakness in the Rupee, and Cognizant delivering strong

results. In auto stocks, two wheeler stocks did particularly well during the month.

The performance of the oil and gas companies was driven by the OMCs as Refining

margins improved, and lower crude prices meant lower under recoveries and lower

working capital requirements. On the other hand, metals stocks were hit by lower

commodity prices during the month, (Aluminum was down 12%, with Zinc down 8%

and Copper 6% respectively. This was partly a result of the stronger Dollar (the DXY

was up by 2.4% during the month). Financials were impacted by continuing asset

quality issues, with most PSU banks continuing to show stress on their balance sheets.

In global news, the talks between Greece and its creditors continued to linger, while

publicly expressing hope of coming to some sort of an agreement. Greece has payments

due of nearly Euro 9 Billion over the next three months, which is going to be a challenge

unless some agreement is reached. In other interesting news globally, the onshore

Chinese stock markets continued to hit new highs while the corporate results themselves

are under pressure.

In terms of flows, FIIs were net sellers to the tune of USD 71 million, while both Mutual

Funds (USD 725 million) and Insurance companies (USD 978 million) were buyers.

FIIs have now invested about USD 7.1 Billion CYTD into India.

The big event which the markets were watching for in the month were the Q4 and FY15

full year results, looking for any signs of improvement in corporate performance.

The markets were disappointed however with the numbers. The net profits of the Nifty

index companies declined 14% yoy. The sectors which disappointed most were PSU

Banks, Metals, Cement and select Pharmaceutical and IT companies. However, we expect

earnings cuts to moderate going forward, given the sharp decline in the last two quarters

already, and hopes of some recovery in economic activity as result of government action

in past few months. In addition, the metals companies and elect oil companies would

be helped by the lower metal/ oil prices which will be the base going forward.

There were no major surprises on the macroeconomic data front, with both CPI (4.9%)

and WPI (-2.7%) being under control. The food prices remained under control, in spite

of unseasonal rains earlier in April. However, the RBI is slightly more circumspect on

inflation going forward given predictions of a weak monsoon by the Met department.

If the monsoon is indeed poor, not only will it impact inflation, but also demand from

the rural areas, which is already dampened. In addition, it could also have a second

impact as the government may have to spend extra funds in these areas which would

impact the fiscal deficit and lead to expenditure compression elsewhere particularly if

growth in taxes is moderate given weak corporate performance.

In line with recent trends, the trade deficit came in at USD 10.8 Billion, with exports

shrinking 14% yoy. Imports shrank 7.5%, though removing oil/ gold imports, they grew

about 6.7% yoy.

The only macroeconomic data surprise was the Q4FY15 GDP growth estimate of 7.5%,

making India probably the fastest growing economy in the world. This doesn’t square

with poor corporate earnings, weak investment cycle and weak consumer demand, and

constant demand for rate cuts to spur the economy.

During the month we bought or added to our positions in Glenmark Pharmaceuticals,

Amara Raja Batteries, Axis Bank, Bajaj Auto, Bata India, Cipla, Coal India, Cyient, Gateway

Distriparks, HCL Technologies, Hindustan Petroleum, Hindustan Zinc, Mold-Tek Packaging,

Orient Cement, Ramkrishna Forgings, Tata Consultancy Services, Tata Motors, Torrent

Pharmaceuticals, Voltas and Yes Bank among other stocks.

We sold or reduced our positions in Bharat Forge, Birla Corporation, Crompton Greaves,

Divis Laboratories, Eicher Motors, Indraprastha Gas, ITC Ltd., ICICI Bank, Indiabulls

Housing Finance, JK Cement, Karur Vysya Bank, Lupin, Maruti Suzuki India, Motherson

Sumi Systems, Shree Cement, Tata Communications, Tech Mahindra and UPL among

other stocks.

Understanding Ratios & Risk Measures

STANDARD DEVIATION - Is the average deviation from the mean returns. It is an indication of volatility i.e. deviation from meanreturns. 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 forthis 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%. Thescheme will also exhibit a high standard deviation because each year the return of the scheme differs from the mean return. Thisscheme 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. Forexample 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 ofMean 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 isthe 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 definedas 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 andyet 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. Expressedin 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 beforeselling it. A scheme with a 200 per cent turnover ratio will change its portfolio in six months or in other words, replace the entireholdings in its portfolio with new stocks in six months.

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

++ 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.
