Global events Fed hiking, Chinese currency depreciation, geopolitical events like the flare-up between US and North Korea to add to near-term volatility.

Portfolio Action The fund has an overweight position in Media, Metals, Utilities and Oil and Gas while it is underweight in Pharma, BFSI, Capital Goods, Auto and Infraructure. The conservative ance of the portfolio had benefitted the fund in the early part of FY17 as markets punished value ocks more than the quality ocks. The tilt from then has slowly changed as metal ocks, which represent the value set, found their way into the portfolio. We continue to believe that metals offer the maximum potential for positive earnings surprise in addition to the deleveraging ory going ahead. The lack of exposure to corporate lenders and PSU banks hurt the fund in the month of November as the government went for recapitalisation of PSU Banks.

Equity Market Brief GST landmark reform is now implemented, and over the la few months, the government has introduced further changes to help the smaller firms navigate GST better. While there might be some near-term issues in implementing, the longer term benefits are transformative. Mo lied players will benefit, as they form the organised part of the economy. After a prolonged period of under-delivery of Corporate Earnings, we expect earnings trajectory to materially improve in 2HFY18, on the back of favourable base and as GST transitory impacts abilise. PSU recap and continued government spending on infraructure augur well for the medium term growth prospects. India to benefit from such reforms which encourages formalisation of the economy in the medium-to-long-term, significant flow from physical to financial savings to further provide ability to markets. Volatility across global equities is on lower side. Global events Fed hiking, Chinese currency depreciation, geopolitical events like the flare-up between US and North Korea to add to near-term volatility. Time in the market more important than timing the market after a long period of lower volatility, markets volatility may move up. Portfolio Action Equity The portfolio continues to be pro-cyclical and tilted towards economic recovery. As a result we continue to be overweight on sectors such as cement, capital goods & engineering, auto ancillary, media and consumer discretionary. In the IT and pharma sector we continue to have ock specific approach. The fund continues the underweight ance on consumer aples, IT and Pharma. During the months we marginally increased weightage to financials (insurance companies & PSU banks), FMCG, capital goods, 2W space & Oil & gas sector. In the short term we believe the GST implementation could be a disruptor for B2C businesses. However from a medium term perspective po GST implementation, we anticipate that the organized players would become ronger as unorganized sector would find it tough to do business in the changed environment and cede market share to more organized players and portfolio is well positioned in those sectors where there is a large portion of unorganized players. From an earnings perspective so far 2QFY18 results have been largely in line with expectations and better 1QFY18 results. Sector such as private sector banks, FMCG, consumer discretionary autos have given better than expectation while results of IT. OMCs & Pharma have been below expectation. Next two quarters are likely to retain earnings momentum due to lower base because of demonetisation. The current largecap (above 20,000 crs market cap): midcap ratio remains at 70:30 in the fund.
