Fund Manager Commentary Debt Markets April 2015 Fixed Income Update for April 2015 Key Market Highlights: In its First Bi Monthly Monetary Policy Statement for FY 16 held on 7th April, RBI kept key rates unchanged as expected. RBI also indicated that going forward monetary policy actions may be conditioned by incoming data. More specifically RBI would look at whether banks are transmitting the rate reductions via cut in their lending rates and also look at movement of food prices and monsoon progress. Bond and G-sec yields went up 5-10 bps across the curve. Rising oil prices, concerns on weather related impact on food prices and resumption of govt s dated g-secs borrowing programme were the main factors. Money market rates fell from March levels on easing liquidity, mutual fund and bank demand for CDs and lower supply. Brent Crude oil prices rose to USD 64.8 as compared to USD 54.79 in previous month end. INR exhibited weakening trend and closed the month at 63.42 as compared to 62.67 in March end. For the month of March, FIIs continue to remain buyers in the debt market with net debt purchases totaling ` 12,450 crore approx. The benchmark ten year g-sec closed the month at 7.86%, 10 bps higher than previous month. The ten year AAA Corporate bond benchmark closed at 8.37%, 2 bps higher than previous month. The five year AAA corporate bond benchmark closed at 8.37%, 2 bps higher as compared to previous month. Mar WPI data release came at -2.33% as compared to -2.06% as in previous month. CPI for March came at 5.17% compared to 5.37% in previous month. Feb industrial production (IIP) growth rose to 5% yoy reflecting some pickup in industrial activity. Liquidity deficit during the month eased and averaged ` 83,000 crore as compared to ` 1,60,000 crore approx in the previous month combined for daily LAF, term LAF and MSF. Overnight rates remained stable around 7.30% -7.70% during the month. Outlook: There could be some near term weakness in prices considering rise in global bond yields and oil prices. Steady supply through govt s primary auction of dated G-secs could also keep prices under pressure. We expect the existing ten year benchmark G-sec to trade in a range of 7.75% to 7.95% during the month. The five year AAA PSU corporate bond benchmark is expected to trade in a range of 8.35 to 8.55%. Banking system liquidity deficit is expected to be lower on account of higher coupon maturities in the range of ` 50,000 crore to 70,000 crore for the month. Short term money market yields upto 3 month maturity are expected to remain range bound barring any unforeseen tightness in liquidity. We expect the 3 month CD rate to trade in range of 8.00-8.50%. Global bond yields rose by 20-30 bps across US, UK and Euro area. 1 year CD rates fell by 8 bps to close at 8.39%. 1 year T- bill rate fell 3 bps to close at 7.90%. 3

Fund Manager Commentary Equity Markets April 2015 Review of Equity Market for the Month of April 2015 The weakness the equity markets had seen in March continued into April. The second half of the month was particularly bad, with the NSE Nifty falling about 7.5% in the period. Among Emerging markets, India was an outlier, being the second worst performing market with MSCI India (in USD terms), falling 7%, while MSCI EM was up 8%. The underperformance could be attributed to continued weak earnings (and poor earnings visibility), the Met department's forecast of the monsoon likely to be below average, and concerns about the applicability of MAT to certain category of FIIs. The equity markets have rallied in the past 18 months on improved macroeconomic data backed by strong flows from both FIIs and domestic investors. However, the micro level picture for company earnings hasn t yet shown an improvement overall. In fact, EPS estimates for FY16 have been downgraded by nearly 10% between October 2014 and March 2015. Consensus earnings forecast for FY 16 is still at about 16%.

Source - MFI Explorer Globally, the risk assets did well in the previous month. However, the situation in Greece again was in the news, with uneven progress in the negotiations, while crude prices (Brent) were up 18% during the month. Like in the previous month, the mid and small caps outperformed the large cap stocks again this month. Among sector indices, the Materials and energy sectors performed well. Metal stocks did well on the back of higher commodity prices. The CRB commodity index was up 8.4% during the month. Despite the move, it is still down 26% over the past year. The IT stocks did poorly as some of the larger names had weak results with weak volume growth and cross currency headwinds impacting earnings. In terms of flows, FIIs continued to be buyers, and bought stock worth USD 1.7 Billion in the cash market (this includes a large block deal for shares of Sun Pharma) though they were sellers in the futures market. The domestic investors were net buyers of about USD 1.2 Billion with insurance companies turning buyers after a long time. The Rupee however, having strongly outperformed last year, was weaker by 1.5% during the month against the US Dollar. In terms of macro news, the inflation numbers remained in control with the CPI at 5.2% and the WPI at (-) 2.3%. India s trade deficit however increased to US$11.8bn in Mar 15 vs US$6.8bn in Feb 15 due to a sharp US$3bn increase in both gold and non-oil-nongold imports. Merchandise exports declined 21% yoy during the month, while for the full year, exports declined 1.2%, reflecting both the impact of a strong currency and weak global economy. Going forward, the actual work being done on the ground would begin to reflect in earnings over the next few quarters. The companies are also making efforts to repair their balance sheets (raising money, selling off assets) which would ultimately enable them to start spending. During the month we bought or added to our positions in Amara Raja Batteries, Ashoka Buildcon, Bajaj Auto, Ceat, Colgate Palmolive, Dr. Reddys Labs, Finolex Cable, Gateway Distriparks, Gujarat State Petronet, ITC, Inox Wind, Kajaria Ceramics, Orient Cement, Sun Pharmaceuticals and Torrent Pharmaceuticals among other stocks.

Understanding Ratios & Risk Measures STANDARD DEVIATION - Is the average deviation from the mean returns. It is an indication of volatility i.e. deviation from mean returns. Lower the better. For instance a scheme that has a consistent four-year return of 3% would have a mean or average of 3%. The standard deviation for this scheme would then be zero because the scheme's return in any given year does not differ from its four-year mean of 3%. On the other hand, a scheme that in each of the last four years returned -5%, 17%, 2% and 30% will have a mean return of 11%. The scheme will also exhibit a high standard deviation because each year the return of the scheme differs from the mean return. This scheme is therefore riskier because it fluctuates widely between negative and positive returns within a short period. Calculation = Square Root of Variance. Where Variance is the average of the squared deviations from mean returns. BETA - Can be interpreted as percentage change in price of a scheme for every one percentage change in the market benchmark. For example if a scheme's beta is 1.1 and the market is expected to go up/down by 10% then the scheme will move up/down by 11%. Calculation = Covariance of Market and Scheme's Returns Divided by Variance of the Market. Where Covariance is the Deviation of Mean Returns of Market multiplied by Deviation of Mean Returns of the scheme. JENSEN'S ALPHA - Gives the average return of the portfolio over and above the risk free rate and market determined return. This is the addition by the fund manager over and above the market return and hence higher the better. Calculation = Portfolio Return - (Risk Free Rate of Return + beta [market return - Risk Free Rate of Return]). SHARPE - Gives the returns per unit of risk. i.e. for every 1 unit of risk what is the returns of the scheme. For this purpose risk is defined as standard deviation of the scheme. Higher the Sharpe, the better. It signifies that scheme with a higher sharpe ratio generates returns taking lesser risk. In other words, the scheme is less volatile and yet generating good returns. Thus, given same returns, the scheme with a higher Sharpe ratio offers a better avenue for investing. Calculation = Average Scheme Return - Risk Free Rate of Return : _ Standard Deviation of the Scheme. PORTFOLIO TURNOVER - Portfolio turnover is a measure of how actively a fund manager trades the portfolio of your scheme. Expressed in percentage or number of times, the inverse of a scheme's turnover ratio is the average holding period for a security in that scheme. If a scheme has a 20 per cent turnover ratio, it would suggest that on average that scheme will hold a security for five years before selling it. A scheme with a 200 per cent turnover ratio will change its portfolio in six months or in other words, replace the entire holdings in its portfolio with new stocks in six months. Calculation = Lower of sales or purchases divided by average AUM for last rolling 12 months. ++ ICRA has assigned credit risk rating of [ICRA]A1+mfs to Principal Cash Management Fund. The rating is the highest-credit-quality short-term rating assigned by ICRA to debt funds. It has also assigned the credit risk rating of [ICRA] AAAmfs to Principal Debt Opportunities Fund - Conservative Plan. The rating is the highest-credit-quality long term rating assigned by ICRA to debt funds. Rating methodology used by ICRA is based on evaluating the inherent credit quality of the mutual funds portfolio. As a measure of the credit quality of a debt fund s assets, ICRA uses the concept of credit scores, based on ICRA s assessment of credit risk associated with each exposure of the portfolio taking into account its maturity. To quantify the credit risk scores, ICRA uses its database of historical default rates for various rating categories for various maturity buckets. The credit risk ratings incorporate ICRA s assessment of a debt fund's published investment objectives and policies, its management characteristics, and the creditworthiness of its investment portfolio. ICRA reviews relevant fund information on an ongoing basis to support its published rating opinions. If the portfolio credit score meets the benchmark of the assigned rating during the review, the rating is retained. In an event that the benchmark credit score is breached, ICRA gives a month's time to the debt fund manager to bring the portfolio credit score within the benchmark credit score. If the debt fund manager is able to reduce the portfolio credit score within the benchmark credit score, the rating is retained. If the portfolio still continues to breach the benchmark credit score, the rating is revised to reflect the change in credit quality. The ratings should, however, not be construed as an indication of the prospective performance of the Mutual fund scheme or of volatility in its returns. ICRA ratings should not be treated as recommendation to buy, sell or hold the rated debt instruments. ICRA ratings are subject to a process of surveillance which may lead to a revision in ratings.
