1. The World This Week June 23 Jun 28, 2014

2. Equity View: The markets continue to rise in anticipation of a positive budget and that the government would work hard to remove infrastructural bottlenecks. CII Quarterly Business sentiment index which indicates the business confidence is positive above 50 and in Q1 FY15 this was 53.5. In the last few months, market sentiments have improved; the car sales have risen in last month. Inflation has been flattish with a recent slight increase but nothing serious to interpret out of the same. Government has been working to resolve issues related to the environment ministry, power projects and their pricing, roads, ports, etc. Thus there are hopes of big announcements in the budget. There are also discussions that FDI could be allowed in Defence and Railways. This is an incremental positive for companies linked to these spaces. Monsoon in the month of June has been 40% below normal thus there are concerns over agricultural production this year. However as per the recent forecasts, the rainfall post 7th July would cover up for the deficit seen. The fact is that the month of June contributes only 20-25% to the overall rainfall received during monsoon in India thus the concerns to the agricultural production are not grave as of now. The impact of rainfall on the agricultural production would be known after the statistics released this month. Agricultural contribution to the overall GDP is less than 15% thus even in situation of severe drought the GDP figures would not be completely changed from the forecasted figures though the impact would be there. Q1 earnings should start from 11th July. We expect strong earnings from IT companies with 3-4% volume growth. We continue to like select IT and Pharma stocks as they are expected to deliver strong earnings growth. With more reform measures being announced, we would be positive on Banking both public and private, Oil and Gas companies, esp. the downstream companies and select infrastructure companies. The railway passenger fares have been hiked after 11 years and we expect more such price hikes in the near future. A big movement could be an increase in kerosene prices which has not happened in the last 12 years. There could be more strong steps to improve fiscal deficit whose target for FY15 is 4.1%. We expect the disinvestment programme to be helpful in this with around 60,000 Crores worth of government shares being sold this fiscal (the highest in a long past). Thus we remain positive on the Indian equity markets.

3. News: DOMESTIC MACRO: According to RBIs financial stability report, Indias economic growth, inflation, and banks asset quality are still concerns.

Government extends excise duty concession for the automobile and consumer durables sectors by six months to December 31; also mulls bringing back excise duty in the branded garments category in the coming budget. According to a CARE Ratings report, Indian retail asset securitization market volumes decreased marginally by around 6% to Rs 28,300 cr in FY14 as against Rs 30,300 cr in FY13. RBI directs banks to give data about willful defaulters every month or more frequently to the credit information companies from the beginning of 2015.
