Fund Manager Commentary Debt Markets February 2014 Fixed Income Update for February 2014 Key Market Highlights: During the month we saw yields rise across various debt asset classes. While gilt and T-bill yields rose by 5-10 bps across the curve, CD rates rose sharply by more than 100 bps. Further, rise in Banking system liquidity and higher supply (as banks stepped up CD issuance) were the main reasons. Corporate bond yields also rose by 10 bps across the curve. INR remained broadly stable during the month and ended on a stronger note at 61.75 as compared to 62.65 in the previous month. During the month FIIs were net buyers of domestic debt to the tune of ` 18,000 crore approx. The new ten yr benchmark 8.83% GOI 2023 closed at 8.86%, 8 bps higher than previous month end. The ten yr AAA Corporate bond benchmark closed at 9.67%, similar to previous month. The five yr AAA corporate bond benchmark rose by 6 bps to close at 9.80%. Outlook: We expect long end gilt yields to remain range bound with downward bias due to lack of supply this month. The ten yr G-sec benchmark is expected to trade in a band of 8.60 to 9.00% in the near term The five year AAA PSU corporate bond benchmark is expected to trade in a range of 9.50 to 9.90%. Inflation as measured by WPI and CPI for February 2014 is expected to fall further. This may support gilt and bond prices Short term money market yields are expected to remain elevated on account of tight liquidity. Banks CD issuance can put upward pressure on rates, however if liquidity eases from current levels it may lead to softening of CD rates. Systemic liquidity deficit is expected to remain higher during the month in a range of ` 90,000 to 1,50,000 crore for the month of March 2014 1 year CD rates rose by 13 bps to 9.78%. 1 yr T- bill rate also rose by 13 bps to 8.95%. Jan WPI data release came at 5.05% y-o-y vs. 6.16% in previous month. CPI for January also came in sharply lower at 8.79% compared to 9.87% in previous month. Core CPI however continues to remain sticky and above 8% and core WPI also went up further to 3.16%. December industrial production (IIP) growth came in at -0.6% yoy reflecting continued tepid activity. Liquidity deficit was higher during the month at ` 1,16,000 cr avg as compared to ` 93,000 cr average for the previous month combined for daily LAF, term LAF and MSF. Overnight rates remained volatile in the range of 8-9.25%. RBI introduced additional liquidity through the term repo facility in the range of ` 20,000 crore to 30,000 crore on various days as overnight rates went to the higher end of the band. 3

Fund Manager Commentary Equity Markets February 2014 Review of Equity Market for the Month of February 2014 The Indian equity markets were up in the month of February, broadly in line with Emerging Markets. The MSCI India index was up 3.4% (in USD terms) while the MSCI EM index was up 3.2%. The developed market indices however continued to do better, with the S&P 500 index up 4.3% during the month, while MSCI Europe was up 4.6%. There was overall a risk on environment as high yield bonds rallied, and the commodity index (esp. the agricultural commodities index) was up during the month. However, emerging market funds continued to see outflows while investors continued to invest in developed markets, esp. Europe and Japan. Globally, investors are wary of risks in the Chinese shadow banking system. While some relief was seen due to a troubled deal getting bailed out, this remains an area of concern. The performance of the Indian indices is given below. The mid-caps outperformed the large caps during the month. In terms of sectors, the capital goods and autos did well while metals, consumer goods and IT stocks did relatively poorly. Another sector that did not do as well was Telecom, where the relatively higher prices paid by telecom companies in the spectrum auction dampened sentiment.

Source - MFI Explorer There was a lot of buying in capital goods companies, probably as investors believe that projects which have been cleared by the government in the past few months may kick off after elections. Also, institutional investors have been underweight the sector in the recent past, and are likely rebalancing their portfolios. Metals prices were impacted by weak data coming out of China, which impacted performance of these companies. During the month, FIIs continued to remain buyers of both debt (net inflow of USD 1.8 Billion) and equities (net inflow USD 322 million). The FIIs have invested over USD 10 Billion in Indian equity so far in FY 14. The domestic institutions however witnessed a mixed picture, with Insurance companies being net buyers (USD 240 million) while mutual funds were net sellers (USD 194 million). In terms of macro data, the picture continued to improve, with the trade deficit lower at USD 9.9 Billion, and both CPI and WPI coming in lower than consensus expectations. January CPI came in at 8.8% while the WPI was at 5.05%. This was primarily led by lower prices of vegetables. The core numbers for both the indices remain high however, the IIP and the GDP numbers remain weak, with the Q3 GDP estimates coming in at 4.7%. It could be a tall order for the economy to grow at 4.9% as estimated by the CSO for FY 14. The IIP for December was at a negative 0.6%. Consumer durables growth was negative, which is also supported by anecdotal evidence of poor demand for passenger cars etc. The markets are positioning themselves for a stable government post elections and may remain volatile based on news flow till the elections. During the month, we bought or added to our positions in Bank of Baroda, Bata India, Escorts, Federal Bank, Finolex Cables, Finolex Industries, FirstSource Solutions, Godfrey Phillips India, HDFC Bank, Himatsingka Seide, ICICI Bank, Indusind Bank, Infosys, L&T, Lupin, Polaris Financial Technology, Shree Cement, State Bank of India, Tech Mahindra, Ultra Tech Cemco, Voltas and Wipro.

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.
