LOCAL AGENCY FURTHER INFORMATION

 

HISTORY:

Subject was incorporated on 6th March, 1989 at Kolkata in West Bengal having company registration number 46387.

 

Subject was promoted by Chairman Ishwarlal Patwari. It was started to set up a 100% export-oriented spinning unit for cotton yarn. This unit has an installed capacity of 26208 spindles and is located in Kolhapur district of Maharashtra.  
 
Commercial production commenced in Mar.'95, after a delay of 6 months, which was caused by the delay in the delivery of machinery by the manufacturers, for which the company came out with a Rs. 139.900 millions public issue at a premium of Rs. 20/-, in Jan.'94. Subject  signed a MoU with Globex Pvt Ltd to market cotton yarn in Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, the Philippines, etc. Its products are single and double, carded and combed hosiery and weaving cotton yarn. The company has taken up the necessary steps for the implementation of a silk fabric project. The land has already been allocated. 

 
During 1998-99, the company received ISO 9002 certification in respect of yarn and knitted fabric. The company had plans to set up a captive power plant to achieve cost advantage on power consumption. 


The Company is still awaiting certain clearance to implement the captive power project. The company has also proposed to further upgrade existing equipments while also adding capacity for yarn and down stream value added products. The additions would be done under Textile Upgradation Fund Scheme. 

 
The company also proposes to augment spinning capacity to achieve economy of scale together with more value-added production under the Technology Upgradation Fund Scheme.

 

DIRECTOR REPORTS:

The Company's tax never from operations for the year ended 31st March, 2007 is Rs.2632.341 millions (previous year Rs.1755.515 millions) showing an increase of 49.95%. 

 
Profit after tax, from operations, for the year under review is Rs.66.454 millions as against Rs. 49.526 millions during the previous year (the total profit after tax during previous year was Rs. 345.396 millions, inclusive of Rs.295.870 millions income from investment division), thus recording an increase of 34.18%, inspire of higher income tax and deferred tax liabilities compared to the previous year. 

 
The implementation of the expansion and modernisation scheme has led to higher volumes and cost reduction. The volume of merchant exports of cotton yarn and raw cotton has also grown during the year. 

 
FUTURE PROSPECTS: 

During the year, the expansion cum modernisation scheme under the TUFS has been implemented. The production capacity stands increased from 26208 spindles to 55440 spindles. The same would give better economies of scale, greater flexibility in product mix which Would enable the company to deal better with the developing market conditions and ensure sustained profitability in the face of ever increasing competition. Benefits of expansion and modernisation programme are partially visible in Financial Year.

 

2006-07 and the full effect of the same is expected to be seen in Company's performance in .Financial Year  2007-08.

 
Raw cotton is the single largest cost for the Company. The price and the quality of cotton have a huge bearing on the performance of the operations.

 

As such, the company proposed to focus on this area through new initiatives such as contract farming, and exclusive arrangements with few ginning factories. It is expected that this will result in quantum improvement in the quality of the cotton procured and will also result in Cost saving. 

 
The vision statement of the Textile Industry envisages the growth in the total market size for textiles and garments from 52 billion USD in 2006 to 110 billion USD by March 2012, the terminal year of the Eleventh Five Year Plan. To achieve this target, the Vision Statement has, among other things, estimated that 29 million additional spindles would required - 20 million for capacity expansions and 9 million for modernisation. Therefore, the future scope for capacity expansion and modernisation is promising. 

 
The Company has finalised a project for further growth with an estimated capital outlay of Rs.2300.000 millions. The Company proposes to set up a new spinning unit (62,400 spindles) with a Yarn dyeing (3000 MT/year) and garment making unit (1.5 million pcs/year) spread over 33 acres of land at Five Star Industrial area at MIDC Kagal in district Kolhapur, Maharashtra. 

 
The Company is predominantly export oriented and major portion of Company's turnover is from exports and as such the profitability to some extents depends on movement in exchange rate of various currencies. The sudden and sharp movement in exchange rate during March/April 2007 was unprecedented and despite the Company's hedging policy being in place, there is likely to be some impact on the sales realisations and profitability. The company is taking all possible steps to mitigate the adverse impact.
