They say one ends up over eating at a buffet because of being spoilt for choices. The recentlyconcludedspectrumauctionsareanexampleofthetelecomoperators'insatiable appetite the government put out all the available bands and spectrum up for auction and the operators went to town buying it all up. The saving grace was thatnooperator submitted bids for the ultraexpensive 700MHz. All have bought spectrum that is more than their current requirements. Jio, which is just days into the launch of its operations has added capacity spectrum. With this significant addition of data spectrum, all operators are now battleready.

that 4% CPI is now a fiveyear target vs. the 2018 timeline set during Dr. Rajan's governorship.We view this positively, asbringing CPI down to 4% in the nearterm was aggressive for India, because it suffers from supplyside constraints. The longer timeline will ensure easy monetary policy, low interest rates, and stimulus for economic growth.

Consumer Durables

Phillip Capital

In Q2FY17, we do not see a major revival in growth for most consumer companies as the factors responsible for sluggish growth in the last few quarters, like rural stress, liquidity crunch, and subdued macro-environment, continue to impact growth. For consumer companies (ex-Nestle), we expect topline to grow by 8% yoy in Q2 vs. 5%/5%/6% in the previous three quarters and bottomline to grow by 11% vs. 9%/7%/10% in previous three quarters. We believe that the minor improvement in growth rates will be due to a favourable base for companies impacted by excise benefit cessation in FY16, mild revival in ITC's cigarettes business, and gross margin expansion for categories consuming cruderelated raw materials....

INDIA | IT SERVICES | Q2FY17 Results Preview We expect 2QFY17 to be a lacklustre quarter for Indian IT companies, considering that it is traditionally the strongest quarter for the industry. Sharp cross-currency movement (particularly GBP post Brexit) and client-specific issues will drag revenue growth for almost all companies. We expect large-cap companies to report CC revenue growth of 0.4%-3.3% and 50-100bps negative cross-currency impact. Margins are expected to expand for Infosys and TCS and contract for Wipro (wage hike), HCL Tech (wage hike), and Tech Mahindra (restructuring cost). Management commentary will be of utmost importance in this...
