1. The World This Week
July 07 – July 12, 2014

2. Equity View:
The equity markets have seen almost 18% move since the beginning of this year however, some profit
booking had happened on the back of weaker global cues. There was a correction of 3.5% in Sensex last
week largely on account of profit booking.
The much awaited Budget was presented last week in which the biggest take away was a clear break
from the subsidy and the hand-out driven approach of the previous more growth-focused-government.
Also, this budget provides clear vision for long term growth and reliability in India through large
infrastructure spending, fiscal prudence and sustainable reduction in CAD. More importantly, Finance
Minister had mentioned the need to maintain low inflation trajectory which supports the high interest
rate regime currently deployed by the Central Bank governor. Based on this speech, we believe there is
very little chance of any rate cut in the second half of this fiscal. The big push was on the infrastructure
side for the treatment of long term Infra loans as CRR or SLR by banks. The allocation to roads space was
extremely high of about 38,000 crores which is almost a 50% increase over last year. The target is of
creating 8,000km of new roads by FY15 and also a 10 year tax holiday has been provided for power
generation and transmission companies. All this expenditure was budgeted for housing, roads and power
projects. More tax cuts were provided as the limit of tax-free income has been increased from 2 Lacs to
2.5 Lacs, 80C limit has been increased from 1 lac to 1.5 lacs and the housing loan exemption on interest
payment has been increased from 1.5 lacs to 2 lacs. All these 3 things will give extra income in the hands
of common man and would also help boost financial savings. One big negative presented for debt mutual
funds was the taxation on holdings below 3 years to be set at marginal tax rates. The tax structure until
now considered anything above 1 year as long term and a capital gain arising out of the same was to be
taxed at 10%. Now, anything which is held for a period of more than 3 years will be taxed at 20% thus it
could be negative for debt mutual funds and 1-2 year FMP’s. There has been a clear boost given to REITs
due to which we expect a lot of announcements and new launches in this space coming in the next few
months.
Broadly from equity market perspective the budget is positive and we continue to be positive on Indian
equities. On Friday the IIP data was released at 4.57% which is 17-month high and a pickup in investment
activity has been visible after a long time. This is also being led by the increase in manufacturing growth
rate so we believe that the economic recovery is getting strengthened and we would see a revival in the
industrial and manufacturing cycle in the remaining part of this fiscal. The CPI would be released today
and we would expect that data to be around 7.5%.
