UTTAR PRADESH
BJP sweeps Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand
Reaffirms Mr. Modi's popularity at half way mark; big boost for reform agenda
In the first major state elections post demonetization, BJP, the ruling party at the
center, has swept Uttar Pradesh (UP) and Uttarakhand, with a four-fifth majority, an
unprecedented victory. BJP’s vote share in UP has gone up from 15% in 2012 to 39% in
2017. In Punjab, Congress has come back to power after 10 years with a two-thirds
majority. In Goa and Manipur, Congress has emerged as the single largest party,
tantalizingly short of the majority mark.
Uttar Pradesh is India’s largest and most populous state, sending to the Lok Sabha 80
MPs – the highest among all states, and is crucial from the perspective of Rajya Sabha
arithmetic. The magnitude of BJP’s victory in UP has beaten the highest exit poll
predictions (285 seats predicted by Chanakya). Post demonetization, BJP has
witnessed a series of electoral successes, be it in the assembly bye-elections or various
local elections in Maharashtra, Orissa, Gujarat, Rajasthan, and Punjab.
PUNJAB
Uttar Pradesh to be ruled by a national party after 15 years
UTTARAKHAND
Uttar Pradesh would be governed by a national political party after 15 years. Over
2002-2017, regional parties like Samajwadi Party and Bahujan Samaj Party ruled the
state. Also, for the first time in 15 years, UP and the center would have the same
ruling party at the helm.
State election results reinforce Mr Modi’s popularity
The just-concluded elections in five states were the most important polls post the
2014 general elections and almost coincided with the half-way mark of Prime
Minister, Mr Narendra Modi’s term at the center. A resounding victory with four-
fifth majority in India’s largest and politically most crucial state reinforces Mr Modi’s
popularity and further weakens the opposition, in our view. Another important
trend emerging is the unequivocal and decisive mandate by the electorate, be it
general elections or state elections (Bihar, Delhi, Assam, Maharashtra, Haryana, and
Jharkhand), bringing down curtains on coalition politics.
MANIPUR
Reform momentum should continue; light election calendar ahead
BJP now rules the highest number of states. This should facilitate decision-making
pertaining to significant reforms (land, labor, tax), going forward. It would also
speed up decision making on strategic policies and enhance the transmission of
GOA
economic policies in a smoother fashion, in our view. We expect the reform
momentum (demonetization, GST, FDI liberalization, direct benefits transfer,
financial inclusion, etc) to continue and gather more steam, as this victory should
boost the confidence of BJP at the center, especially after an uncertain phase
following demonetization. Additionally, the lack of credible opposition at center and
in key states should help BJP. Also, the election calendar going forward is light, with
the next state elections (Gujarat) almost nine months away. We believe this would
ensure complete focus on economics. Implementation of GST remains a key event
to watch out for in FY18.

Focus to return to fundamentals after initial positive reaction
We expect the markets to react positively to the election results. Though the
markets were expecting a BJP victory, the extent and magnitude of the victory is a
surprise. However, we believe the focus would soon revert to fundamentals –
valuations at ~18x FY18E EPS on anticipated ~20% growth in FY18 Sensex EPS do not
provide meaningful room for upside. The earnings recovery has not panned out as
anticipated and Sensex EPS has stayed flattish over FY13-17. While the markets have
rallied well in the last three months and recouped all the losses post
demonetization, over a two-year period, the market indices have remained largely
flattish. We remain cautiously optimistic, with preference for ideas with earnings
visibility. Our top picks are Tata Motors, ICICI Bank, ITC, Infosys, Hindalco, Bharti
Airtel, IOCL, RBL, Ultratech Cement, and Britannia.
Key highlights from BJP’s UP manifesto
All small and marginal farmer loans will be waived off.
Interest-free agriculture loans will be provided to all small and marginal farmers.

A quick look at the five state election results
Five Indian states – Goa, Manipur, Punjab, Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand – had
assembly elections, the results of which were announced a couple of days ago.
Before the elections, Goa and Punjab were being run by BJP, Manipur and
Uttarakhand by Congress, and UP by Samajwadi Party (SP). After last week’s election
results, BJP witnessed a landmark victory in UP and Uttarakhand, but lost Punjab to
Congress. Though Congress emerged as the largest party in Goa and Manipur, it fell
short of clear majority.

number of seats won by any
single largest party in four
decades
Snapshot of Uttar Pradesh (UP) assembly election results
Since UP was, by far, the most important state of the five election states, it deserves
special attention.
Exhibit 6
below shows the trends in seats won by different parties
with their vote share since 1991. Last week’s results show that BJP won 312 seats
out of 403, marking the highest number of seats won by any single largest party in
four decades (in 1977, Janata Party had won 352 seats out of 425 seats). BJP would
be forming the government in India’s largest state after 15 years.

After last week’s election results, BJP has increased its dominance in state elections.
As against ruling 8 states in 2012, BJP now rules 11 states, while Congress is
restricted to only 7 as against 12 in 2012. (It is still unclear as to who will form the

Why is Uttar Pradesh important?
A brief review of Uttar Pradesh economy
Uttar Pradesh (UP) plays an important role in India’s economics and politics. With a
population of over 200m, it is by far India’s most populous state. In fact, UP is
believed to be the largest subordinate of any country in the world. It sends 31
members (12.6% of total members) to the upper house of the Parliament (Rajya
Sabha) and 80 members (14.7% of total seats) to the lower house (Lok Sabha).
The next two pages feature a series of exhibits on the UP state economy and other
vital statistics. As
exhibit 9
shows, UP, the third-largest state (after Maharashtra and
Tamil Nadu) in terms of GSDP, has consistently under-performed the national
average in terms of GDP growth. Further, the ruling government has been criticized
for widening fiscal deficit (exhibit
10).
Nevertheless, it is equally important to note
that since UP is primarily a rural state (with more than 75% of population staying in
rural areas), retail inflation has been lower than the national inflation level. In
January 2017, while India’s inflation was 3.2%, it was 2.7% for UP.

economy…

How do recent state elections change the Rajya Sabha
composition?
NDA/BJP unlikely to gain majority until 2020 (FY21)
Notwithstanding a landmark victory in India’s largest state, it is important to note
that the composition of Rajya Sabha (RS) would be very slow to change.
Exhibit 16
below gives the list of retiring RS members from these five states over the next
couple of years.
Only 10 members from UP state holding Rajya Sabha (RS) seats (out of 31 seats)
would be retiring in April 2018. With BJP winning 312 seats in UP, it would win 8
seats of the 10 retiring members, implying a gain of 7 seats (since one retiring
member would be from BJP). Further, BJP would gain one RS seat from Uttarakhand,
which would also fall vacant on retirement in April 2018.
Moreover, while BJP lost in Punjab, Congress may not see any gain in its strength,
since all the members would be retiring in 2022, when the next state election is due
in Punjab.
Congress currently holds the only RS seats from Goa and Manipur. With Congress
likely to retain power in Manipur, this would remain unchanged. However, it is still
not clear as to who will form the government in Goa, and accordingly, gain the RS
seat, post retirement in July 2017.
Overall, while NDA currently holds 73 seats, the recent elections would give it an
advantage of a maximum of 9 seats (in case they make the government in Goa). It
would, thus, take their tally to 82 by mid-2018. On the other hand, the strength of
UPA (SP) would fall from 65 (18) currently to 63 (12).

Quote Shoot: Slugfest is finally over!
"In a democracy, we must respect each
other because some will win, some will lose.
Trust the people."
– Mamta Banerjee,
West Bengal chief minister
"There is no leader today with a pan India
acceptability who can take on Modi and the BJP
in 2019. At this rate we might as well forget
2019 and start planning/hoping for 2024."
– Omar Abdullah,
National Conference Leader
"Am overjoyed that BJP has received unprecedented
support from all sections of society. Huge support
from the youth is gladdening."
– Prime Minister Narendra Modi
We are all now part of Modi's nation. And it's
here to stay for another eight years at least because
2019 seems like a slam-dunk for the BJP. Today marks such an
enormous change that the BJP brand is now being subsumed
under the Modi charisma. Not a single voter that I met in UP
said they were voting for the BJP. They were all voting for
Modi, Modi, Modi. With this transformation comes great
expectations."
– Prannoy Roy, NDTV (Indian Media)
"I think the new government in power will work even
better than the SP. It's possible people didn't like the great
Expressway we built and they voted for a bullet train. We
built great roads may be the people of UP were not happy
with that and want even better roads? Maybe the BJP will
build even better roads,"
– Akhilesh Yadav, Samajwadi Party
