1. Time to Invest in Equities – Valuations Attractive
Equity Valuation index is calculated by assigning equal weights to Price-to-Earnings (PE), Price-to-Book (PB), G-Sec*PE and Market Cap
to GDP ratio. G-Sec – Government Securities. GDP – Gross Domestic Product; Data as of Mar 13, 2020
 Our Equity Valuation Index highlights that Equities are available at attractive valuations
 Our VCTS (Valuation, Cycle, Trigger and Sentiments) framework indicates that the Valuations are
attractive, we are in the low to mid phase of business cycle and sentiments around the asset class
is negative
 Hence, we recommend adding equities to the investment portfolio at this juncture
 Global crisis usually provided a good opportunity to invest in equities. We believe with recent
market correction due to concerns around COVID-19 spread, market has stepped into an oversold
zone. This provides a good margin of safety for equity investments
COVID-19 is Coronavirus disease 2019
 We recommend adding equities through Asset allocation schemes and Fund of fund schemes like
ICICI Prudential Balanced Advantage Fund and ICICI Prudential Asset Allocator Fund (FOF)
 We believe quality stocks are still expensive and the rest of the market is attractively priced.
Hence, we recommend investing in Value and Special Situations theme through schemes like ICICI
Prudential Value Discovery Fund and ICICI Prudential India Opportunities Fund
 We remain positive on the Smallcap space as valuations are reasonable and recommend investing
in ICICI Prudential Smallcap Fund
