India’s merchandise import (Excl. Oil & Gold) has been increasing
INR has depreciated 3.3% against USD (10Y CAGR) and median inflation has been ~5.2% 
Vietnam and China, with high manufacturing exports, have current account surpluses;
leading them to enjoy much lower currency depreciation* and hence lower inflation
Growth in consumption without commensurate
manufacturing growth leading to higher trade deficit

macroeconomic resilience

Risks Mitigants
Slowdown in domestic and/or global
growth could impact revenue and
profit growth
With India emerging as the largest source of cost
effective labor supply its manufacturing value
proposition should allow it to be able to grow faster
than rest of the world
Pace of reforms and implementation of
policy initiatives could slow down or
turn adverse
Indian government policies for manufacturing
sector are favourable to the industry
Geopolitical developments impacting
the availability of raw materials
Continued focus on diversification of supply chain
and efforts toward localisation should help over time
Risks around meeting ESG
requirements
Bottom up analysis of ESG risks for investee companies
Impact of Automation and AI
Automation and/or AI could lead to slower job creation,
however, it is likely to bring overall cost down there by
increasing affordability across goods and services

Growing consumption, investments and exports
Changing geopolitical dynamics (China + 1)
Emergence of India as a manufacturing powerhouse
Government’s push for self-reliance (Atmanirbhar Bharat) by way
of reforms and incentives
Supportive macroeconomic environment with rising capex, low leverage
and high levels of capacity utilisation
Emergence of India as the largest pool of cost-effective labor supply
Global realignment of supply chains
High value-add manufacturing should accelerate, supported by
dominance of a strong high end service economy
