Himatsingka Plans Big Retail Foray

 

Abhrajit Gangopadhyay

 

Bangalore, July 16

 

SILK fabrics exporting major Himatsingka Seide Limited plans to sell its range of furnishing fabrics through exclusive retail chain, to be opened in four metro cities and Bangalore by August-September. The retail foray would be under `Atmosphere' brand— both for the products as well as the showrooms.

 

The domestic retail drive is a sharp turn from the till-now 100 per cent export-oriented firm. The retail venture would be operational under a wholly-owned subsidiary called Himatsingka Wovens Private Limited

 

Earlier, Himatsingka Seide had acquired ABC Trading Private Limited for Rs 57.5 Millions to power its retail drive. ABC owned 12,330 square feet of real estate. Post buy-out, subject plans to retain 2,500 square feet for its own use and lease/rent out the remaining space. The new retail thrust comes in the wake of a shrinking production and sales volume of fabric business in 2002-03. The company reported its production and sales dropped marginally by 0.4 per cent to Rs 1056 Millions and contributed to 84 per cent of the company's sales. However, external yarn sales were higher by close to 20 per cent and touched Rs 199.3 Millions from Rs 166.1 Millions a year ago. Internal consumption was lower tracking a change in product mix of the fabric business, which is driven by customer preferences. The in-house consumption was 38.3 MT as compared to 64.2 MT a year ago.

 

Subject, which is a debt-free company, has laid down a foreign exchange management policy and resorted to hedging as rupee hardens against the US dollar. Till March end, forex exposure in terms of both exports and imports were close to Rs.1584.0 Millions.

 

The company said its operating profit margin jumped to 44.23 per cent in 2002-03, from 42.97 per cent a year ago as raw material costs dipped and hence improved realisations level for the company to Rs.880 per metre from Rs.835 per metre a year ago.

 

But other income fell by 42.71 per cent in 2002-03 from a year ago to Rs.68.6 millions. This was in spite of hike in investible surplus to Rs.887.8 millions as on March end from Rs.561.4 millions at the beginning of the fiscal. The company said that such surplus funds were invested in debt-based mutual funds and returns on such investments fell sharply and returned an average of 7.28 per cent compared to 15.23 per cent returned a year ago.
