Insights across South East Asia

Macroeconomics

<ul>
<li>In the first 9 months of FY2021/22, the fiscal deficit was 50% of the budgeted estimate for the full-year. More realistically, this year's fiscal deficit will be 5.7% of GDP. </li>
<li>Given more credible revenue estimates, the deficit for FY2022/23 will decline to 4.9%  of GDP. The government's lower borrowing requirement will help crowd-in private investment. </li>
<li>A 35%YoY increase in public investment will fund a multimodal connectivity rollout, while carbon-fibre will reach all villages, solar and 5G will be harnessed to create a tech virtuous circle. </li>

India: Budget Aims to Generate Concentric Virtuous Circles & Crowd-In Private Capex

<ul>
<li>India's goods exports grew 41.4% in 2021, outpacing most of the world (including Taiwan, Korea and China). Services exports stayed robust too, and both will boost growth in 2022. </li>
<li>Fixed investment spending was up 11% YoY in Q2-FY2021/22, and will likely strengthen further on the back of accelerating corporate profits (evident in surging corporate tax revenue). </li>
<li>Despite renewed disruptions from India's Third Wave of Covid, we expect real GDP to grow over 10% in FY2021/22 and 8%+ in FY2022/23, boosted by robust exports.  </li>

As expected, the December review of the S&amp;P BSE SENSEX Index (SENSEX INDEX) sees Wipro Ltd (WPRO IN) added and Bajaj Auto Ltd (BJAUT IN) deleted.
Buying on Wipro is 2.5 days of ADV and 8.2 days of delivery volume, while selling on Bajaj Auto is 4.5 days of ADV and 8.9 days of delivery volume.
The overweight of the Information Technology sector in the Sensex gets even bigger and the Consumer Discretionary sector gets even more underweighted vs the BSE All Cap Index.

<p>The December review uses the market cap and turnover data from 1 May to 31 October to determine the stocks to be included and excluded from the index, and the announcement of the changes is done 4 weeks before the rebalance effective date.</p>
<p>With 6 days to go in the review period, we see <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/wipro-ltd" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:15360:1" rel="noopener">Wipro Ltd (WPRO IN)</a> as a high probability index addition. <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/bajaj-auto-ltd" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:3613:1" rel="noopener">Bajaj Auto Ltd (BJAUT IN)</a> is the lowest ranked index constituent and is a likely deletion from the index.</p>
<p>There is a (slim) possibility of <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/nestle-india-ltd" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:13101:1" rel="noopener">Nestle India (NEST IN)</a> being deleted from the index if it fails the annualised traded value test.

With 6 days to go in the review period, we see Wipro Ltd (WPRO IN) as a high probability index addition. Bajaj Auto Ltd (BJAUT IN) is the lowest ranked index constituent and is a likely deletion from the index.
There is a (slim) possibility of Nestle India (NEST IN) being deleted from the index if it fails the annualised traded value test. As it stands, it is touch and go for the stock.
Passive trackers will need to buy over 2 days of ADV on Wipro Ltd (WPRO IN) and sell over 3.5 days of ADV on Bajaj Auto Ltd (BJAUT IN). If Nestle India (NEST IN) is deleted instead, passive trackers will need to sell 7 days of ADV on the stock.
In terms of delivery volumes, the impact is much larger with passive trackers needing to buy 8.5 days on Wipro Ltd (WPRO IN), while selling either 8.8 days on Bajaj Auto Ltd (BJAUT IN) or 13 days on Nestle India (NEST IN).
