UPDATE
BSE-30: 26,626

2016: The year of nothing. CY2016 turned out to be another nothing year for the
Indian market with flat returns in US$ terms. However, the market had its fair share of
ups and downs and gave several money-making opportunities. A portfolio of value
stocks at the beginning of the year would have given excellent returns unlike growth
stocks that flattered to deceive during the post-Brexit and pre-Trump period when
markets got carried away by expectations of continued low DM and EM bond yields.

Several events in CY2016 badly exposed the ability of experts to predict (1) the outcomes of
and MF equity
political events; the outcomes of both the major political events (US Presidential elections,
inflows; US$6.6 bn
Brexit) were quite different from poll results and (2) the reaction of the markets to unexpected
outcomes of the political events; the post-event reaction of markets to the unexpected outcome of FPI debt outflows
were quite different from pre-event consensus views. Interestingly, CY2017 has a fair share of
such economic and political events (see Exhibit 3).

However, a do-nothing approach may or may not have worked depending on positioning

With the benefit of hindsight, a portfolio of value stocks (loosely defined as PSU banks, private
corporate banks, metals, oil & gas, utilities) at the beginning of CY2016 would have performed
very well. Growth stocks (autos, consumer, IT and pharmaceuticals) disappointed in general
although they had had their good periods. Sectors and stocks (see Exhibits 4-5) showed very
diverse movements during the year, which provided great opportunities for active investors. Sanjeev Prasad
Exhibit 4 shows the divergent performance of various sectors over various periods. Our early-
CY2016 unchanged portfolio would have hypothetically given 3% returns while our Model
Portfolio (with periodic changes) gave 11% returns (see Exhibits 6 and 7). Sunita Baldawa

Anindya Bhowmik
We believe the global macro factors may be less relevant in CY2017. Asset prices in the past
7-8 years have been largely driven by DM bond yields and monetary policies of central banks.
With DM yields starting to move towards normal levels on the back of anticipated economic
recovery, attention will shift to fundamentals once again unless DM economic growth were to
falter in CY2017, which would result in global central banks being called into action again.

Earnings: Low base should help (hopefully!) finally


Given the disappointment in earnings over the past few years (see Exhibit 8), investors would
naturally be a bit wary about placing a great deal of confidence in consensus earnings
estimates for FY2017-19. Unexpected global and domestic events derailed earnings in
FY2014-16. Exhibit 9 shows the earnings growth and valuation by sectors for the Nifty-50
Index for FY2017-19E. Valuations for the broad market look more reasonable in the context
of earnings growth and bond yields.

Our FY2017 earnings growth of 13% (Nifty-50 Index basis) is largely back-ended (4.9% in
1HFY17) and reflects the very low base of net profits in several stocks in 2HFY16. As can be
seen in Exhibit 10, companies such as BHEL, BoB, SBI and Tata Steel had reported either
large losses or very low profits compared to trend levels.

Our FY2018 earnings growth of 20% is largely predicated on normalization of profits in


sectors such as automobiles and banks with the latter being the biggest contributor of
incremental profits (see Exhibit 11). We model a decline in loan-loss provisions (LLP) starting
2HFY18 (see Exhibit 12) for private corporate banks (ICICIBC in particular) and PSU banks
(see Exhibit 12). However, we do see some risks to our banking sector estimates from
(1) lower-than-expected credit growth and (2) potentially higher-than-estimated credit costs
(LLPs) from higher NPLs in the SME sector as a result of the recent demonetization measure.

As discussed in detail our CY2017 strategy report dated December 16, 2016 titled New year,
old ideas, several sector-specific factors in metal & mining, oil & gas, pharmaceuticals and
regulated utilities make us slightly more confident about our FY2018E earnings estimates.
We have already cut volume and pricing assumptions for FY2017 and FY2018 for the
domestic consumption sectors such as automobiles, cement and consumer staples and
discretionary to factor in the negative impact of demonetization on volumes and
profitability. These sectors account for only 15% of the net profits of the Nity-50 Index
(excluding the share of TTMT from the automobiles sector).

Also, we note that 60% of the net profits of the Nifty-50 Index does not depend on Indias
GDP growth as their revenues, profits and profitability largely depend on global factors
and/or regulations(1) global GDP growth in the case of IT, (2) global commodity prices or
profitability in the case of metals and oil & gas and (3) regulations in the case of regulated
utilities. We do not anticipate any major negative surprises in the case of earnings of the
aforementioned sectors.

Lastly, we do not rule out a reduction in the corporate tax rate by the government in the
forthcoming union budget on February 1, 2017, which could provide some buffer to our
earnings estimates in case the negative effects of demonetization on domestic consumption
demand were to extend into FY2018. The Indian government has already announced its
intention to reduce basic corporate tax rate by 5% by FY2020 to 25% from the current
30% (5% cut over four years in the FY2016 union budget speech of the finance minister).
The finance minister recently argued for (1) lower tax rates based on a (2) broader tax base
in the economy.

Flows: Multi-year lows for FPIs


FPI equity inflows dropped to US$3.1 bn in CY2016, in line with CY2015s US$3.3 bn and
much lower than the US$20 bn average seen in CY2012-14 (see Exhibit 13). However,
domestic equity inflows were quite strong (see Exhibit 14), largely driven by continued
strong savings by retail investors in equities through mutual funds (see Exhibit 15).

However, FPI debt outflows were quite large at US$6.6 bn in CY2016 as FPI debt investors
exited domestic debt from late October given growing concerns about higher DM yields and
narrowing differential between DM and EM yields, which would reduce the relative
attractiveness of EM bonds versus DM bonds.

It would be interesting to see if CY2017 sees the same level of interest among domestic
equity investors as CY2014-16. Equity returns have been negligible over this period.

India Strategy

However, we continue to be positive about strong growth in household financial savings


(including equities) in the medium term on the back of (1) a favorable monetary policy for
financial savings in the form of positive real interest rates, (2) favorable government policy
on financial inclusion and (3) unfavorable government policy towards black money including
the recent action of demonetization, which will likely divert household savings into financial
savings, away from physical savings over a period of time.

India JANUARY 02, 2017
UPDATE
BSE-30: 26,626

Not the best despite efforts. FY2016 was quite a weak period for the recovery
environment while accelerated recognitions resulted in a sharp rise in NPLs for the
banking system. Latest data from RBI shows that the issuances of SARFAESI declined in
FY2016 but the only positive is that recovery trends through DRT and Lok Adalat
improved. The first case under the new bankruptcy law has been filed by ICICI Bank in
the current quarter and we wait to see the progress under it.

DRT and Lok Adalat show improvement; weak on SARFAESI

Against our expectations, the performance on recovery trends was weak in FY2016 as per the QUICK NUMBERS
latest reports from RBI. Exhibits 1 and 2 show the recovery activity through SARFAESI, DRT and
Lok Adalat. Note that FY2016 was weak on SARFAESI notices by banks with a decline of ~50% Notices and
yoy and a similar trend is visible on the amount recovered. DRT has seen an increase of ~10- recovery under
15% by cases and amount involved but recovery was stronger with a growth of ~50% yoy. Lok SARFAESI reduced
Adalat stands out for the year with strong overall performance, but the quantum is not that by ~50% in FY2016
meaningful.
NPLs in the priority
Slippages remain high but there is hope of stronger improvement in 2HFY17/FY2018 sector increased by
Compared to FY2015, FY2016 was extremely weak from slippages standpoint as it represented 125bps yoy to 6.8%
the sharpest increase at ~6% of loans as compared with the trend levels of ~3% reported for and 630bps yoy to
FY2012-15 (exhibit 6) resulting in a sharp rise in NPLs (see exhibit 4/5). Slippages were led by 12% in non-priority
the corporate sector. As per the last financial stability report, the overall stress in infrastructure sector for public
has increased marginally to 35% in 2QFY17 from 33% in FY2016 while iron and steel has seen banks.
an increase to ~45% in 2QFY17 from 35% in FY2016 (see exhibit 7). Stress has remained
unchanged in the textiles and construction sectors. RBI has indicated that stress in the retail First case under the
portfolio is broadly stable but with a marginally increasing bias. new Insolvency and
Bankruptcy Act filed
Priority sector shows deterioration in FY2016 for public banks

Exhibit 8 shows the break-up of NPLs for public and private banks. A major cause for the rise in
NPLs was the non-priority sector, but it is important to note that the priority sector too has seen
deterioration, mainly for public sector banks. FY2016 saw NPLs in the non-priority sector more
than double to 12% while the ratio increased 125bps yoy to 6.8% in the priority sector. Private
banks too have seen deterioration in the priority sector, albeit with a marginal increase of 20bps
yoy to 1.8%.

Slippages hard to extrapolate; many weapons and channels to address the asset quality issues

India is probably still a tale of two halves; improvement in macro but weakness in the large M B Mahesh CFA
corporate segment which intensified last year is showing signs of stability. Banks have been
working with them in Joint Lenders Forum (JLF), converting to equity the existing debt through
Strategic Debt Restructuring/ Scheme for Sustainable Structuring of Stressed Assets (SDR/S4A), Nischint Chawathe
adopting 5:25 scheme. This makes it challenging to predict NPLs as they are large and chunky.
However, one of the key positives that we are seeing today is the active involvement of various
Abhijeet Sakhare
stakeholders. Government is clearing a lot of bottlenecks across the various sectors, especially in
power. RBI and banks are working with the borrowers though various measures mentioned
previously and corporates are looking at various measures to actively deleverage their balance
sheets. The recent decline in interest rates, improvement in project cash flows and
announcement of deleveraging is giving us confidence that the stress in the sector is likely to
reduce in the medium term.

expansion of valuation multiples allowed for stock performance. Lower cost of
production owing to the sharp decline in pet-coke prices during the early part of the
year reversed sharply in the second half, even as de-monetization threatens to push-
back recovery in industry utilizations at least by another year.

Volumes remained lackluster, prices had large regional disparities

Volumes for the year remained lackluster, despite a promising start with 1QCY16 reporting a
strong 11.4% yoy growth in volumes. Initial data on post-demonetization suggests a 10% yoy
decline in cement volumes for November 2016 with market participants suggesting an even
weaker December, pushing back hopes of improving demand-supply dynamics by at least
another year.

Cement prices started off on a very weak note, though the sharp price increase in North and
Central in the month of March 2016, brought some respectability to all-India prices that have
remained largely flat since. Westa region that was witnessing price weakness for the last two
years saw healthy price increase in September 2016, that helped salvage the earnings of players
concentrated in that region. Overall, average prices remained largely unchanged for the year,
barring North and Central that saw a healthy price trend (Exhibit 2).

Sharp decline in pet-coke prices aided by lower cost, though trends have reversed since

Weak volumes and prices notwithstanding, a sharp decline in pet-coke prices in 2HCY15 helped
cement players lower production cost and report healthy earnings growth in the early part of
the year. The merriment has however been short-lived with pet-coke prices having rebounded
sharply and likely to impact production cost over the next few quarters (Exhibit 3). Cost of
freight (railways and road) was also supportive for most part of the year, though we do expect
some headwinds on this front going into CY2017 (Exhibit 5).

Story of earnings downgrades partially off-set by expanding multiples continued

Despite a promising start to the year, cement earnings were not able to meet the lofty
expectation for another year standing, with earnings downgrade for FY2017 at 12-24% from
the start of the year, while FY2018E has been downgraded by 24-27% from the start of the
year for large cap. stocks (Exhibits 6-8). We do concede the impact of de-monetization in
November 2016 to have played an accelerated part in the earnings downgrade towards the end
of the year. In our view, the de-monetization has added an increased element of uncertainty to
the already hard-to-predict earnings for the cement sector, and we do not rule out further
downgrades over the next few months as the full impact of de-monetization gets clearer.

Stock performance extended until September 2016, under-performance since

In a departure from the past, cement stocks outperformed the benchmark up to September Abhishek Poddar
2016, (12% out-performance in 1QCY16) while under-performing the benchmark in the last
three months (10% under-performance in 4QCY16) (See Exhibits 9-10). However, in a
departure from past trends the stock performance continued to trend up until September 2016
largely on account of continued expansion of multiples in an environment of declining global
yields (Exhibits 11-12).

The under-performance of the sector since September 2016 was prompted by (1) continued
earnings downgrades as well as sharp increase in pet-coke prices, (2) contraction of
valuation multiples, and (3) most importantly the announcement of de-monetization scheme
that appears to have immediate as well as ,medium-term implications for the volume growth
trajectory of the sector. While traditionally believers, in the out-performance of the sector in
the first quarter of the calendar year owing to peaking of construction activity and strong
price action, the current state of market dynamics puts a question on sustenance of the
seasonal trade this time along.

Re-structuring, asset sale activity marked a new high in CY2016


The year 2016, marked some of the largest asset acquisitions and company restructurings
seen in recent times with (1) Ultratechs acquisition of 21 mtpa of cement asset from
Jaiprakash Associates, (2) the long pending restructuring of ACCs ownership, wherein the
latter now is a subsidiary of Ambuja Cement, (3) advent of a new entrant in Nirma on the
acquisition of the cement assets of Lafarge, (4) exit of Reliance Infrastructure from the
cement business to allow Birla Corp. to gain in size, and (5) continued simplification of the
ownership structure of Dalmia Bharat including part-exit given to KKR (Exhibit 13).
Amendment to the MMDR Act coupled with bottom-of-cycle earnings trajectory with
leveraged balance sheets for select players prompted the increased M&A activity in the
sector. We expect moderation in activity levels going forward especially for larger players
with dominant presence across markets, as the CCI clearance will be a hindrance to
incremental acquisitions hereon.

NEUTRAL
Technology
India JANUARY 02, 2017
UPDATE
BSE-30: 26,626

3QFY17E preview muted quarter. Dec 2016 quarter revenue growth will be muted
due to twin combination of usual end-of-the-year furloughs and continuing weak
spending environment. Tech Mahindra and HCLT will report strong quarter, while the
rest will have a weak print. The set up for 2017 is promising with early indications of
stronger financial services spending and initial signs of integrated digital contracts but is
counterbalanced by possible delays in budgeting in select verticals. Likely changes to
visa rules will be the key element to focus on in FY2018.

Dec 2017 quarterweak on revenue growth

We expect weak revenue growth for Tier 1 players due to (1) usual end-of-the-year furloughs
and (2) multiple factors that have dragged growth in 1HFY17 will continue to persist, especially
weak financial services spending and captive shift and insourcing. In addition, contract specific
factors will also have a bearing; for example cancellation of W&G program by RBS will impact
Infosyss revenues by 1.4%. We expect Infosys to report 0.3% c/c revenue decline and TCS to
report 1.3% c/c revenue growth. Acquisitions/ inorganic activity will aid numbers for HCLT,
Wipro and Tech Mahindra. On reported c/c basis, we expect Wipro, HCLT and Tech Mahindra
to report growth of 1.2%, 2.9% and 3.8% respectively, while on organic c/c basis our growth
forecast stands at 0.4%, 1.7% and 3.2%. On yoy comparison, organic revenue growth across
companies has drifted down to single digits, but will steady out or improve moving into FY2018

MarginsCrosses impact offset Rupee depreciation. Expect moderate margin decline

Rupee depreciated by modest 0.8%. However, the benefit of Rupee depreciation will be offset
by its appreciation against GBP, EUR and Yen. Cross-currency headwind for the quarter varies
from 100 bps (Infosys) to 150 bps (TCS). This, combined with furloughs, will have moderate
adverse impact on margins; expect stable to modest decline in EBIT margins on sequential basis.
On yoy comparison most companies will report decline in margins due to(1) appreciation of
INR against most currencies except USD and (2) continued pricing pressure in core business.
We believe companies that have invested in digital in early stages can protect profitability with
modest benefit of Rupee depreciation

CY2017 balanced setup; financial services can be a source of positive surprise

CY2017 set up is promising with(1) initial indications of higher spending in financial services
vertical, (2) announcements of integrated digital deals, albeit sporadic, and (3) no acceleration
in intensity of captive shift as witnessed at the beginning of CY2016. These factors indicate that
CY2017 holds promise for the Indian IT. However, these positives are partly negated by possible
delays in budgeting in select verticals in US. Indian IT will likely grow 8-9% in FY2017E and
could grow at same pace or accelerate in FY2018. Expect divergence in performance of
companies depending on the mix of business (run versus change) and ability to capitalize on the
digital opportunity Kawaljeet Saluja

Key areas of focus: H-1B dependence, budgeting cycle and pricing pressure
Jaykumar Doshi
The broad stance of Mr. Trump on immigration, the presence of select long-time proponents of
visa reforms in his cabinet and Republican control over both Senate and House of Representatives
increase the risk of implementation of visa restrictions. Expect investor focus on exposure to
H-1B visas and risk mitigation measures in case minimum H-1B wages were to be hiked. We
also expect focus on (1) budgeting cycle given that some verticals such as healthcare may
delay in view on new President in US and (2) magnitude of pricing pressure and offsets available

Infosys remains our top pick


We back Infosys given it is gaining share in large deals and wallets of large clients, and is
positioned well to capture discretionary spends. Near-term volatility and risks pertaining to
potential tightening of H-1B rules aside, Infosys is making right investments in automation
and digital for sustained profitable growth over the next few years. We also like Tech
Mahindra due to inexpensive valuations with the stock trading at 12X FY2018E earnings.
These multiples are near ex-growth multiples. We expect stable revenue growth backed by
margin expansion. We like TCS impressive execution engine and strong margin defense, we
find the stock trading at 16.6X FY2018E earnings fully valued leaving little elbow room to be
constructive.

Comments on individual companies

Infosys. We estimate sequential revenue decline of 0.3% in c/c and 1.3% in US$ terms
led by ramp down in the cancelled RBS contract (1.4% impact on revenue growth) and
usual end-of-the-year furloughs. EBIT margin will decline by 80 bps on account of lower
utilization due to RBS project cancellation and associated revenue loss. We expect Infosys
to maintain FY2017E c/c revenue growth guidance of 8-9% even as it would imply wide
guidance band for 4QFY17. We expect investor focus on (1) demand environment across
verticals, (2) timely closure of budgets and outcome of the budgeting cycle especially for
the financial services vertical, (3) risk mitigation strategy in the light of likely tightening of
H-1B rules, (4) pricing outlook and progress on automation, (5) risk of captive shift
amongst its large accounts, and (6) TCVs. We have an ADD rating on the stock with a
target price of `1,175.

TCS. We expect TCS to report 1.3% growth in c/c and cross-currency impact of 150 bps.
Cross-currency headwind from 12%, 8% and about 4% exposure to GBP, EUR, JPY
(depreciated 6%, 4.5% and 8% versus US$) will be about 150 bps. We expect TCS to be
able to maintain stable margin, offsetting the impact of cross currency headwinds with
operational improvements. We expect investor focus on (1) demand environment across
verticals, budgeting cycle and its implications for CY2017 outlook and impact of in-
sourcing to captives, if any, in key clients (2) TCS' positioning in the evolving digital
landscape and growth outlook for digital practice, (3) risk mitigation from any potential
increase in minimum wages for H-1B workers and (4) margin outlook. We have a
REDUCE rating on TCS with a target price of `2,325.

Wipro. We estimate organic c/c revenue growth of 0.4%. Reported c/c growth of 1.2%
will be around midpoint of its c/c growth guidance of 0-2%. Our estimates build cross
currency headwind of 115 bps and include US$15 mn from Appirio acquisition for one
month period. We expect IT services margin to be flat at 17.8% on a sequential basis;
headwinds from cross currency movement and acquisition will be offset by operational
improvement. We expect investor focus on (1) progress on the initiatives taken by the
new CEO (2) efficacy of measures taken to improve sales effectiveness, account mining
and to defend shares in core areas of competence. Growth from top 10 accounts and
increase in US$100 mn+ clients, (3) risk mitigation measures from potential increase in
minimum wages for H-1B workers, and (4) integration of recent acquisitions of cellent
AG, HPS and Appirio. We have a REDUCE rating on Wipro with a target price of `485.

HCLT. We expect HCLT to report 2.9% growth in c/c and 1.7% growth in US$ terms.
Growth would be driven by IMS and IBM deals (we build US$20 mn from two IBM deals).
On organic basis, c/c revenue growth would be 1.7%. We expect EBIT margin to decline
30 bps qoq largely due to wage hikes for a section of employees. Expect investor focus on
(1) demand outlook, (2) growth strategy and prospects in service lines other than IMS and
ERD, (3) how the company intends to catch up with competition in digital, (4) competitive
intensity in IMS and HCLT's win rates, and (5) M&A strategy in the light of multiple
acquisitions announced by the company. We have a REDUCE rating with TP of `800.

Tech Mahindra. We expect organic c/c revenue growth of 3.2% and cross currency
headwind of 120 bps. Reported growth would be 3.8% and 2.7% in c/c and US$ terms
aided by US$6 mn from full-quarter consolidation of Target Group acquisition. We expect
80 bps qoq expansion in EBIT margin led by non-recurrence of one-off restructuring costs
that impact margin by 120 bps in the June quarter. This 120 bps tailwind would be partly
offset by seasonal furloughs and transition costs in large deals. On yoy comparison,
EBITDA margin performance will disappoint with 122 bps decline. We expect investors to
focus on (1) pipeline in telecom and deal wins in the Enterprise segment, (2) turnaround
strategy for LCC, (3) roadmap for improvement in margins, productivity and automation,
and (4) growth outlook for top telecom accounts especially its top client in view of recent
M&A activity involving it (AT&T- Time Warner merger). We have BUY rating and target
price of `520.
