Indian equities – Attractive Valuations Table 1 – Periods when10 year NIFTY Return trailed / exceeded • Over the long term, stock market indices in India are growing around the same rate as the Nominal GDP Growth materially nominal GDP Nominal GDP Previous 10 year Next 10 year Growth Year NIFTY Return NIFTY Return ‒ Historically, whenever indices have grown significantly less than nominal GDP in any (Previous 10 (CAGR) (CAGR) year CAGR) extended period of, say 10 years, they have delivered higher returns in next 10 years 2001 7% 13% 16% 2002 4% 13% 18% & vice versa. Interestingly, we are in a similar situation presently (Table 1 grown 2003 6% 12% 13% 2004 6% 12% 15% significantly less) 2006 16% 12% 8% 2007 19% 12% 6% 2016 8% 14% ? 2017 6% 13% ? 2018 14% 13% ? 2019 9% 13% ? India market cap to GDP ratio, calendar year-ends 2005-21E (%) • Marketcap to GDP at 61% and CY21(E) P/E of ~15x is attractive, specially at a time when NIFTY50 profit growth is estimated at 18% CAGR over FY19-22E and interest rates are low • 1Y-Forward NIFTY 50 Earning yield [ i.e. 100/ (one year forward P/E) ] less 10Y Gsec yield is ~ (0.4%) vs 10 year average of (1.7%). This indicates that equities are attractively valued relative to current bond yields. Low Marketcap to GDP, Bond yields equal to Earnings yield and recovery in profit growth make us optimistic on equity markets over medium to long term Source: Kotak Institutional Equities, updated till 3 rd March 2020, From 2005-18, NIFTY50 PE is based on 12 month forward estimated EPS. For 2019E, by Kotak Institutional Equities has calculated PE based on EPS numbers as of Mar-20 end, 2020E based on EPS of Mar-21 end and for 2021E based on EPS of Mar-22 end.

Lower interest rates: Positive for equities • Equities benefit in several ways from lower interest rates: • Lower interest rates mean lower interest expense & higher profits • Lower interest rates imply higher fair P/E multiples • Lower interest rates improve economic growth prospects • HDFC Balanced Advantage Fund with an overweight position in equities is positioned well for current environment with a medium to long term view. “ Low rates reduces the discount factor used in calculating the net present value of future cash flows. Thus, all else being equal, there is a direct connection between declining interest rates and rising asset prices ” – Howard Marks Refer disclaimers on slide 21 5

Underperformance of PSUs – Is this an Opportunity ? 12,000 45,000 • BSE PSU Index was performing broadly in line with/ outperforming the BSE Sensex BSE PSU index 40,000 Index for 18 years from 2000 to end 2017 (see adjacent chart). However, since then in last 2 10,000 SENSEX (RHS) 35,000 years there has been sharp divergence with BSE PSU Index underperforming by 50% vs BSE 8,000 30,000 SENSEX 25,000 6,000 20,000 • In our opinion, Divestment through ETF’s has impacted PSU stocks performance as: 4,000 15,000 10,000 ‒ Regular supply of PSU shares through various ETFs distorts market demand and supply 2,000 5,000 ‒ Discount offered on ETF’s creates interest amongst arbitragers & short term investors as against 0 0 long term investors. 00 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 • An announcement of a strategic sale in BPCL, Air India, Cochin Shipyard, Shipping Corporation suggests a significant shift in strategy with ETF utility as disinvestment took on the decline Will strategic sale route preferred over ETFs for divestment change things going forward ? • Between FY02 & FY05 a large number of disinvestments took place through strategic route or an offer for sale route. The market reaction to the same was positive with BSE PSU Index outperforming BSE SENSEX by ~170% in 3 years as can be seen from adjacent chart. Refer disclaimers on slide 21 Source: Bloomberg 6
