32 Debt Valuation: Remains Attractive Debt Valuation Index Aggressively in High Duration Funds High Duration Funds Moderate Duration Funds low duration funds Ultra Low Duration Funds Feb-00 Jul-00 Dec-00 May-01 Oct-01 Mar-02 Aug-02 Jan-03 Jun-03 Nov-03 Apr-04 Sep-04 Feb-05 Jul-05 Dec-05 May-06 Oct-06 Mar-07 Aug-07 Jan-08 Jun-08 Nov-08 Apr-09 Sep-09 Feb-10 Jul-10 Dec-10 May-11 Oct-11 Mar-12 Aug-12 Jan-13 Jun-13 Nov-13 Apr-14 Sep-14 Feb-15 Jul-15 Dec-15 Debt Valuation Index We have been maintaining the Debt valuation model which provides good estimates of interest rate cycles. Currently the index lies in the attractive territory and indicates that one needs to be invested in duration funds. Debt Valuation Index considers WPI and CPI over G-Sec Yield, Current Account Balance and Crude Oil Movement for calculation. Equal weights are assigned to each of these parameters for calculating the index.

33 To Sum up Fixed Income Market Outlook Macro-economic indicators remain conducive for lower interest rates Yields have not priced-in earlier rate cuts yet and provides space for fall in yields in the near term Improvement in Bank NPAs and fall in property prices to trigger further rate cuts of around bps Credit markets will improve further and spreads will narrow We recommend incremental investments in short- to medium-term duration funds as they may deliver better risk adjusted returns For conservative investors accrual funds remain a good investment proposition

34 Risks to our Outlook Sharper-thanexpected rate hikes by US Fed Crude oil price rises above USD 70 US Junk Bond Market Risks
