2 C L A S S R O O M S E R I E S How to make your Financial Plan In our last classroom series, Importance of Financial Planning, we discussed how financial planning can help you meet your short term, medium term and long term financial goals. In this series, we will discuss 6 key elements, or rather steps that go into making a good financial plan. Defining Goals: This is the first and also, one of the most important steps in financial planning. The more specific and quantitative your goals are the more effective will be your financial plan. An experienced financial planner or adviser can help you define the goals across your savings and investment lifecycle and determine the specific numbers you need to reach specific goals. Data Collection: The second step in the financial planning is to collect the data regarding the investor`s income, expenses, assets (both physical and financial like property, gold, bank deposits, stocks, bonds, mutual funds etc), liabilities (like home loan, car loan, personal loan etc), life and health insurance, and other important factors, that will form the inputs in the investor s financial plans. Financial planners or advisers may employ different methods to collect the data from the investors. Data Analysis: This is the third step of the financial planning process. The financial planner will review all the data collected from the client, e.g. investor s income, expenses, assets, liabilities, existing insurance policies (both life and nonlife insurance), number of family members, short term, medium term and long term financial goals. Through a structured financial analysis process, the financial planner will determine your asset allocation strategy and insurance (both life and health) needs to meet your financial objectives. As an investor, you should also involve yourself in this process, by scheduling reviews and making sure that you understand the analysis.

3 Debt market comments for Factsheet of November 2017 Mr. Killol Pandya (Head Fixed Income) Liquidity: The month of November is usually associated with normal market liquidity. There was some tightening seen in liquidity towards the latter half of the month. Overnight rates remained volatile with CBLO rates ranging from about 6.35% to about 4.10%. Going forward, we expect the market liquidity to remain adequate though market sentiment may change as and when RBI announces further measures to temper liquidity. Inflation: CPI hardened to 3.58% (Vs. 3.28% last month). This was higher than market expectations. WPI inflation also hardened and printed at +3.59% (Vs. +2.6% last month) and was also higher than market expectations. The IIP print was softer at + 3.8% (Vs. +4.5% last month). As of now, we may retain the assumption that CPI may remain within RBIs projections. IIP numbers are usually patchy and if we see persistently strong reading in IIP numbers it may hint at a pick-up in industrial activity in the economy. INR: The INR was rather volatile with a mildly appreciative trend during the month against the USD. INR began the month at about 64.59(Vs USD) and ended the month at about Part of this rise can be attributed to FPI buying in domestic markets. Going ahead, the currency may continue to exhibit some volatility. FPI flows, the global trajectory of the USD and other major currencies may continue to cause volatility in the INR in the coming weeks. Interest Rates and Outlook: Domestic bonds were broadly negative for the month of November. Bond markets remained concerned over inflation, impact of bank recapitalization bonds, fiscal deficit and rising crude oil prices. We saw a negative sentiment & negative moves in Gsec, Corp bonds and Money market instruments for most part of the month. Money market instruments continued to see volatility in yields and saw some hardening during the month. Gilt securities were volatile with negative moves for most part of the month though trading opportunities were available from time to time. The benchmark 10 year paper (6.79% GS 2027) yield range moved up from 6.89% at the beginning of November and ended the month at about 7.05% levels. bonds yields also saw volatility in yields and the movement was generally not as sharp as seen in select Gsecs as stated above. Market participants may keenly watch RBI MPCs policy announcement early in December. From the market perspective, the policy may remain broadly neutral with a hawkish undertone. RBI may remain concerned with the upside risks to inflation. We hold that managing inflation and inflationary expectations may remain RBI s top priority. RBI may continue to manage liquidity using all the tools it has at its disposal. We hold RBIs liquidity management may remain non-disruptive in the coming months. Overall, we reiterate our outlook that the RBI stance has shifted to neutral and may no longer be considered as having accommodative undertones. Market liquidity may continue to be the single biggest driver behind bond market movements in the month to come. Market participants shall closely monitor developments relating to bank recapitalization bonds, fiscal deficit, market liquidity, growth & inflation numbers. Other factors to watch include global indicators such as FOMC rate actions, commodities, crude oil prices, US and Chinese economic data points and INR movements. Global geopolitical events esp. the situation in the Korean peninsula may hold world attention in the coming month. We retain our outlook for the domestic economy doing well in the context of a world-wide slowdown. Going forward, we retain our view on domestic rates to be mildly positive with a medium term to long term perspective. 3

4 Equity Market Review for the month of November 2017 Domestic Markets After a positive October, November witnessed negative returns, with Sensex being down by 0.19% and NSE-50 being down by 1.05%. The S&P BSE midcap index was up by 1.99% while the S&P BSE small-cap index closed 3.57% up. In November, among BSE sector indices consumer durables and reality indices posted best positive returns up by 16.22% and 6.27% respectively. Metal sector posted highest negative returns of 5.62%. For the month, Rupee strengthened by 0.4% and closed at against US dollar. Mr. Amit Nigam (Head - Equities) Domestic Macro Data In a major overhaul of GST, GST council reduced 28% rate to 18% for 178 common use items, reduced tax rate for all restaurants from 18%/12% (with input tax credit ITC ) to 5% (without ITC) and reduced compliance burden of SME sector by expanding the ambit of composition scheme. IIP for September came in at 3.8% YoY, vs 4.3% in last month. While mining and electricity slowed down, manufacturing was flat on monthly basis. Mining and electricity increased by 7.9% YoY and 3.4% YoY in September from 9.2% YoY and 8.3% YoY, respectively in August. Manufacturing growth was 3.4% YoY, flat MoM basis. Within manufacturing, the weakness in consumer durable goods space persisted and witnessed degrowth of 4.8% YoY vs 3.4% growth last month. Capital goods increased by 7.8% YoY vs 5.7% YoY growth in August. Consumer non-durables increased by 10% vs 7.3% growth last month. India WPI inflation in October came in at 3.59%, compared to 2.6% last month led by higher vegetable and oil prices. CPI for October came in at 3.58%, compared to 3.28% last month. Food CPI sprung a negative surprise increased by 2.2% from 1.7% in September. The MoM increase in vegetables was sharper than expected, 7.5% in October vs 3.9% in September. Excluding vegetables, headline CPI remained stable at 3.3%. Core inflation was 4.5% YoY, down 10 bps on MoM basis. India s trade deficit for October came in at USD 14 billion, from USD 9 billion in September. impacted by weaker exports and rise in oil and gold imports. The primary reason of higher trade deficit was the weaker export degrowth of 1%, a sharp decline from 26% growth in September and over 10% growth in August. Exports in October were USD 23.1 billion (September USD 28.6 billion). Imports at USD 37.1 billion, were by USD 0.5 billion on MoM basis. Gold imports were high at USD 2.9 billion (USD 1.7 billion in September). Oil imports were USD 9.3 billion vs USD 8.2 billion in September. Global Markets The European Central Bank took a step towards weaning the euro zone off lose money but promised years of stimulus and even left the door open to backtracking. It said it would cut its bond purchases in half from but also extend the buying program until the end of next September. ECB President Mario Draghi said the euro zone economy was recovering but still needed support. Outlook The GDP growth for the September quarter came in at 6.3% YoY up from 5.7% YoY in the previous quarter. This improvement came in line with our expectations. We have been of the opinion that the slowdown in June quarter was largely led by de-stocking, due to transitionary impact of GST wherein corporates and the distributor network considered it prudent to transit with as low stock as possible. We had therefore opined that the September quarter GDP growth should revert to somewhat normalcy as the entire trade channel stocks up. Subsequent quarters in our view should see a further pick up and we should be able to close FY18 with a similar GDP growth as previous year. However, what is more important is the fact that our economy is now on a journey of much improved growth trajectory in the years to come. We expect that with the structural change brought to the tax regime in our country, the tax to GDP ratio is set to improve over the next few years. This would ameliorate the perennial constraint on public spending towards infrastructure investments one of the much needed impetus to push Indian GDP growth to the aspirational 10%. The September quarter corporate earnings have also been better than expectations. In fact after several quarters, the downgrades to earnings growth over the next 6-18 months has been marginal a welcome sign. The valuations do continue to look expensive when one looks on historical basis as the previous 4 quarters bore the brunt of demonetization and GST implementation on company s profits. However the structural benefits as discussed above and subsequent pick up of earnings present a good opportunity to investors for the long term. We would advise our investors to use any volatility to increase allocations to equities. 4
