However the
market breadth and participation has improved a lot. We’ve seen a lot of stock
specific activity in last one month particularly in mid and small cap space.
• There have been mixed signals from policy makers on the withdrawal of stimulus.
Markets would be closely watching the government’s policy or action on withdrawal
of stimulus. The next big event for direction would be Union Budget to be unveiled
on Feb 26.
• Markets expected to witness higher volatility in the very near term due to global
events
• Our equity market has witnessed expansion in valuation multiple this year and
further gains would be driven largely through increase in corporate earnings.

are expectations of around 20% growth in earnings in FY 2010-11
• While using macro understanding to hedge the tail risk, we retain our focus on
bottom up stock picking which we believe is the key to generate better returns on a
consistent basis
Equity market: The road ahead
• Domestic factors would be bigger driving forces
– Structural story: Consumption boom and infrastructure build up
– Improved economic data
– Policy reforms
