3 Market Review - July 2012 Equity market update After rising sharply by about 7% in June, the Indian markets saw some weakness in July on the back of weak monsoons and continued lack of policy action. The benchmark indices, the Sensex and Nifty ended about 1% lower each. The broader markets under performed with the CNX Midcap Index falling 2.5%. On the domestic front, the news flow was mixed. On one hand, none of the expected reforms (diesel price hike, FDI in retail / aviation) were announced in July, even after the Presidential election. Sentiment took a further hit as the southwest monsoons failed to improve. The monsoon is currently ~20% below normal, posing some upside risks to food inflation. Not surprisingly, the central bank, in its monetary policy review at the end of July, kept key policy rates unchanged citing continuing inflation concerns. On the other hand, first quarter corporate results declared so far have been mixed with some pressure on both sales growth and profit margins evident. However, lower commodity prices are yet to reflect completely in the reported numbers. Finally, on the positive side, the June trade data showed a sharp fall in the current account deficit while IIP data came in better than expected. Global markets began July with a negative bias; however, the European Central Bank s promise to save the European Union gave a boost to investor sentiment, helping European markets end the month higher (DAX +5.5%, CAC +3.0%). The US benchmark index, Dow Jones gained 1%, as the month saw strong manufacturing and housing data, and S&P500 corporate earnings beat expectations. Asia, on the other hand, saw mixed performance with HK, Korean & Indonesian markets rising ~2-4%, while the Japanese Nikkei fell 3.5% and the Shanghai Composite fell 5.5%. In commodities, Brent moved up 10.7% to ~$107/bbl in July (after falling 5% in June) on hopes of monetary easing. However, base metals continued to correct (Aluminium -1.2%, Copper -1.8%, Nickel -5%) on softening Chinese demand. The Sensex now trades at 13x March 13 earnings and is still below its long-term average valuation. In the near term, concerns over a slowing economy, weak monsoons and government policy inaction may weigh on sentiment. However, from a longer term perspective, the overall growth trajectory remains encouraging. For investors with a slightly long term perspective and some tolerance for volatility we believe the Indian markets present an opportunity to capture not only strong earnings growth, but also an improvement in valuation multiples. Source for various data points: Bloomberg & publicly available data. Debt market update During the month of July 2012, the yield on 10-year Government benchmark bond ended higher at 8.25% as against 8.18% in June The average LAF during the month was negative ` 48,066 crs as compared to negative ` 90,637 crs in June The NSE overnight MIBOR ended at 8.06% lower than the rate seen in end June (8.28%). The annual rate of inflation, based on monthly WPI, stood at 7.25% (Provisional) for the month of June 2012 as compared to 7.55% (Provisional) for the previous month and 9.51% during the corresponding month of the previous year. The INR was flat at against the US dollar as compared to at the end of previous month. The net FII investments in equities & debt was an inflow of USD million in July 2012 as compared to an inflow of USD million in June In the First Quarter Review of Monetary Policy, RBI left all key policy rates (repo rate at 8%, reverse repo rate at 7% and CRR at 4.75%) unchanged in line with consensus expectations. However, in a surprise move RBI reduced statutory liquidity ratio (SLR) of banks by 1% of their net demand and time liabilities in order to encourage flow of bank credit to productive sectors of the economy. The RBI has revised downwards its GDP growth projection from 7.3% to 6.5% on account of uneven monsoon conditions, weak industrial activity and global slowdown. The central bank has also raised its WPI estimate for March 2013 from 6.5% to 7% on account of recent trends in food inflation and global commodity prices. In its guidance RBI has stated that it will stand ready to act as the multiple constraints to growth are addressed. Source for various data points: Bloomberg & publicly available data.

4 Tigers earn tourist dollars for India W ildlife tourism has emerged as big business in India though it may not yet match the scale of its counterpart in some of the African countries bringing great benefit to the local economies of especially those states in which India s Tiger Reserves are located. Tiger tourism draws millions of visitors a year to the remote areas where most reserves are, and the money these visitors spend in a variety of ways, benefits the Indian economy as well as the people living in and around these reserves. India has 39 Tiger Reserves, of which Kaziranga in Assam; Bandipur and Nagarhole in Karnataka; Bandhavgarh, Kanha and Pench in Madhya Pradesh; Ranthambhore in Rajasthan, Mudumalai in Tamil Nadu and Corbett in Uttarakhand have very high levels of tourism. The total area of these reserves is 51,928 sq km. India has 1,706 tigers, and the total area of forests occupied by them is 81,881 sq km. The Bandipur and Nagarhole Tiger Reserves, for example, get around 75,000 visitors a year each. Corbett Tiger Reserve, India s first national park, attracts as many as 200,000 tourists a year. Tiger tourism is the primary economic activity in the remote areas where most reserves are located. According to tourist industry statistics, 18 of India s 39 tiger reserves with significant tiger populations attract 2 million visitors a year, 90 per cent of them domestic tourists. Last year receipts from entry fees for tourists and vehicles totalled ` 7 crore in Corbett, Bandipur and Nagarhole each. These funds go into Tiger Conservation Funds, set up in most parks, and are used to facilitate initiatives for involving the local people in conservation. It is estimated that an individual tigress earns $110 million over her lifetime (20-26 years). The figure is based on direct revenues from tourism around the parks and lodges accommodation, food, park fees, photo and film fees, etc. It does not include indirect revenues money spent on vehicles, trains, planes, hotels, etc., that visitors use to get to their destination, or books and films made which can substantially increase this figure. Conservationists say that tourism acts as a check on poaching, by bringing to light illegal activities inside a park. So there is both a monetary and a conservation benefit from tourism. One conservationist, who has been a member of the Supreme Court s central empowered committee (on environmental affairs), argues, Well-managed and sensible tourism is no threat to tigers. Other conservationists argue that tourists help to exert pressure when there is poaching. One thing that they lament, however, is the tourist s obsession with tigers, with hardly anyone interested in the wealth of flora and other fauna to be seen in Indian forests. Secondly, they also fear that the pressure of large numbers of vehicles harms the ecology and disturbs wildlife. As many as 800 tourists a day enter Ranthambhore Tiger Reserve during the tourist season. Conservationists say there is an urgent need to regulate the number of vehicles to, say, one for every 5 km of road length. Many of these issues will be resolved once the ministry of environment s Guidelines for Ecotourism in and around Protected Areas, recently submitted to the Supreme Court, come into effect. The guidelines mandate a local conservation cess as a percentage of turnover on all privately run tourist facilities within 5 km of a protected area, and say that they must generate at least 50 per cent of their energy and fuel requirements from environmentfriendly energy sources. There are also strict rules for noise levels in hotels and the number of cars allowed in a park, beside a code of conduct for tourists, which includes dressing in colours that blend with the natural environment. Clearly, wildlife tourism is going to be placed on a more sustainable foundation, which can only lead to long-term benefits for all stakeholders tourists, the wildlife, and people living on or close to tiger reserves.
