India: The ‘Goldilocks’ story continues
(For the long term)
Tracking weak global cues and softening domestic macro indicators have put questions on ‘Goldilocks’
story of Indian Economy. Goldilocks is a state of Economy wherein the country experiences period of ‘High
Growth’ & ‘Low Inflation’
In the long run, while India’s Goldilocks story may remain intact. But in near-term that may not be the case
as inflation though on its downtrend but continues to remain on higher side and Growth may soften in the
near-term. We believe that in near-term volatility may persist as rural growth continues to lag urban
growth, deficient rainfall may impact inflation & demand, global slowdown may affect exports etc. may
contribute to external sector risks. Hence, near-term ‘Goldilocks’ picture looks hazy
However, with strong capex momentum, sustained government revenues, decent corporate profitability,
indigenization, favorable demographics & strong bank balance-sheets, the long term picture looks bright
and clear
Goldilocks: Still in the game!
Near Term Picture –
Rural Growth playing a catch down

Indian Economy is emerging as one of the fastest growing economy amongst the G20 Nations
Summary & Outlook
29
• With changing global macro dynamics, near term vision of ‘Goldilocks’ for Indian Economy is hazy but a clear
vision can be seen in the long term
• With sound fundamentals and multiple structural reforms underway, the economy is at the cusp of further up-
cycle in the long run
• Favorable demographics and demand too bodes well for the economy
• Long term structural story remains intact albeit with near term volatility owing to global growth-inflation
dynamics and evolving geo-political factors and uncertainties
• Post March-23, Indian equity market valuations have become richer with upbeat sentiments on growth and
profitability
• We believe that markets are in a boom phase and prefer large caps given the recent outperformance of mid and
small cap stocks
• We recommend investing in diversified equity schemes having flexibility to move across market caps/ sectors
/themes coupled with Hybrid schemes that allocate across different asset classes with an aim to navigate
volatility

Fixed Income Outlook
The Month Gone By
31
• The month was marked by a sharp rise in yields on long-dated government bonds. Yields tracked the fast rise in
US Treasury bond yields, which had touched the critical 5% mark on Oct 23, 2023, before rebounding lower.
• Rise in US bond yields was attributed to US growth still surprising to the upside; a hawkish Federal Reserve
signaling higher rates for longer and loose fiscal policy in preparation for the US presidential election in 2024.
• The RBI’s monetary policy committee met on Oct 6 to 8, 2023, and as anticipated, announced no change to key
policy rates. However, bond yields reacted to the RBI’s decision to conduct bond sales to adjust liquidity.
• Growing tensions in the Middle East in the backdrop of Israel-Hamas war increased worries of potential supply
disruptions of energy commodities in a supply-tight market. In a contradictory move, international oil prices
corrected in Oct 2023, pushed lower after weak economic data coming out of Europe.

The Big Picture

• On the currency front, the Indian Rupee saw some weakness on the back of a stronger dollar index. The RBI’s forex
reserves were down $3.4 billion between Sep 29, 2023 and Oct 31, 2023.
• Fiscal data, which comes with a 1 month lag, showed fiscal deficit reaching 39.3% of Budget Estimates up till Sep 30,
2023. Deficit was at 37.3% in the corresponding period of the previous year.
• Bank credit growth reported a jump of 15.2% on-year as on Oct 20, 2023, excluding the balance sheet impact from
the HDFC twin merger.
• Globally, the UK economy continued to skirt with recession after a third month of lower output, blamed widely on the
increased cost of living, higher interest rates and falling exports. Capital outflow pressures have risen amid decade-
high yields on US Treasury bonds. Hopes of a soft landing for the US economy were encouraged by an improved
situation seen in October, with headline flash PMI rising to a three-month high.

Outlook on Fixed Income

• We believe that monetary policy will continue to remain neutral, with a relatively low chance of major shift in policy stance.
• Economic indicators have shown steady growth, and hence, monetary policy can maintain a hands-off approach for the
time being.
• Over the past one year, the yield curve has flattened from its steep levels. This is in sync with the change in phase of the
economic growth cycle, moving from recovery and into expansion phase.
• We believe the expansion cycle could go on for long, unless growth-inflation dynamics shift considerably. Like-wise,
interest rates could also remain elevated and range-bound during the expansion phase.
• We suggest keeping moderate duration; taking tactical calls on long-duration and focusing on accrual assets.

Data as on Oct 31, 2023. Debt Valuation Index considers WPI, CPI, Sensex returns, Gold returns and Real estate returns over G-Sec yield, Current Account Balance, Fiscal Balance, Credit
Growth and Crude Oil Movement for calculation. RBI – Reserve Bank of India. Debt Valuation Index is a proprietary model of ICICI Prudential AMC Ltd. (the AMC) used for assessing
overall debt valuations. The AMC may also use this model for other facilities/features offered by the AMC.
Due to rise in bond yields,
our model suggests adding
some duration.
Overall, however, our
stance remains CAUTIOUS
towards duration.
This means ACCRUALS +

  • 4. India: The ‘Goldilocks’ story continues (For the long term)
  • 5. Tracking weak global cues and softening domestic macro indicators have put questions on ‘Goldilocks’ story of Indian Economy. Goldilocks is a state of Economy wherein the country experiences period of ‘High Growth’ & ‘Low Inflation’ In the long run, while India’s Goldilocks story may remain intact. But in near-term that may not be the case as inflation though on its downtrend but continues to remain on higher side and Growth may soften in the near-term. We believe that in near-term volatility may persist as rural growth continues to lag urban growth, deficient rainfall may impact inflation & demand, global slowdown may affect exports etc. may contribute to external sector risks. Hence, near-term ‘Goldilocks’ picture looks hazy However, with strong capex momentum, sustained government revenues, decent corporate profitability, indigenization, favorable demographics & strong bank balance-sheets, the long term picture looks bright and clear Goldilocks: Still in the game!

  • 31. The Month Gone By 31 • The month was marked by a sharp rise in yields on long-dated government bonds. Yields tracked the fast rise in US Treasury bond yields, which had touched the critical 5% mark on Oct 23, 2023, before rebounding lower. • Rise in US bond yields was attributed to US growth still surprising to the upside; a hawkish Federal Reserve signaling higher rates for longer and loose fiscal policy in preparation for the US presidential election in 2024. • The RBI’s monetary policy committee met on Oct 6 to 8, 2023, and as anticipated, announced no change to key policy rates. However, bond yields reacted to the RBI’s decision to conduct bond sales to adjust liquidity. • Growing tensions in the Middle East in the backdrop of Israel-Hamas war increased worries of potential supply disruptions of energy commodities in a supply-tight market. In a contradictory move, international oil prices corrected in Oct 2023, pushed lower after weak economic data coming out of Europe. Source: RBI; US Federal Reserve; Refinitiv

  • 42. Outlook on Fixed Income 42 • We believe that monetary policy will continue to remain neutral, with a relatively low chance of major shift in policy stance. • Economic indicators have shown steady growth, and hence, monetary policy can maintain a hands-off approach for the time being. • Over the past one year, the yield curve has flattened from its steep levels. This is in sync with the change in phase of the economic growth cycle, moving from recovery and into expansion phase. • We believe the expansion cycle could go on for long, unless growth-inflation dynamics shift considerably. Like-wise, interest rates could also remain elevated and range-bound during the expansion phase. • We suggest keeping moderate duration; taking tactical calls on long-duration and focusing on accrual assets.
