HISTORY

Incorporated in Oct.'73, Mahavir Spinning Mills (MSML) was promoted by Vardhaman Spinning and General Mills and is managed by Chairman Paul Oswal. The first plant was commissioned in 1975 with 25,088 spindles in Hoshiarpur, Punjab.

 
The company's subsidiaries are VMT Spinning Company Limited (VMT), Vardhman Threads Limited(VTL) and Vardhman Yarns and Threads Limited 


In 1977-78, the company set up a 25,000-spindle textile mill at Malerkotla in Sanazur, Punjab. MSML is into the spinning of cotton, staple, acrylic and acetate yarn and sewing thread. The company took over an ailing mini-steel plant and renamed it Vardhaman Steels. It exports yarn to 20 countries including Hong Kong, Japan, South Korea, Australia, New Zealand, Europe and others.

  
In 1992-93, the company commissioned a 100% EOU at Mandideep. The EOU at Mandideep and the spinning unit at Malerkotla were awarded the ISO 9002/BIS 14002 by Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS). Its gassed and mercerised dyed yarn project at Hoshiarpur commenced commercial production in Mar.'95.

 
The company has entered into a joint venture agreement with Marubeni Corporation and Toho Rayon, Japan, for setting up a 100% EOU at Baddi, Himachal Pradesh. It floated a separate entity called Vardhman Acrylics Limited (VAL) for executing the above project. Commercial production of this project commenced on Sep.'96. During 1998-99, the third 100% EOU at Mandideep with an installed capacity of 25000 spindles was flagged off for production. 


Expansion of Sewing Thread capacity by addition of unit-II at Ludhiana with a capacity of 5 TPD implemented in two phases, the first phase with a capacity of 2.5 TPD has commenced production. Further Unit-V with a capacity of 24192 spindels to produce fine counts meant for Gassed Mercerised Unit started commercial production. 
 
The Company is also undertaking expansion and technological upgradation of the existing spinning unit at Malerkotla. To manufacture superior sewing thread under their brands of PERMASPUN,D-CORE and PERMACORE the company has signed a agreement with Amercian and Effird Inc., USA. 


The Textile business of Vardhman Spinning and General Mills Limited (VSGM) was vested into the company with effect from 1st April 2004 and the manufacturing units belonging to VSGM is now part of the company. According to the scheme the company has allotted 12,763,064 equity shares Rs.10/- each to the shareholders of VSGM in the ratio of eight shares for every ten shares of VSGM held. As a result of this allotment the paid-up equity capital of the company has increased to Rs.385.130 millions. 


In September 2005 the company has issued bonus equity shares to its equity shareholders in the ratio 1:2. 

During 2004-05 the company has increased its installed capacity of Spindles and Rolled products by 158392 Nos and 14400 MT respectively. With this expansion the total installed capacity of Spindles and Rolled Products has increased to 468688 Nos and 80400 MT. Further the company has installed new capacities of Looms and Rotors with a capacity of 264 Nos and 528 Nos respectively.

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS REPORT: 

 

Textile Business: 

The global Textile Industry witnessed increased restructuring, relocation and mergers and acquisition activities in the last couple of years. The global trade in textiles and clothing has increased from $479 bn in 2005 to more than $530 bn in 2006. Out of the total increase of $51 bn in textiles and clothing exports in 2006, 70% belongs to increase in clothing whereas 30% belongs to textiles clearly showing higher growth in clothing trade than textiles. Most of the textile exporting countries, except China and few other countries, witnessed deceleration in the exports of textiles and clothing. There has been a steady build up of capacities in all the textile producing countries, which has resulted in an imbalance between demand and supply. Consequentially, the volume and the margins are facing pressure. 


The Indian Textile Industry witnessed growing investments during the last three years. According to the data of the Textile Commissioner on Technology Upgradation Fund (TUF), projects worth Rs.631770 millions have been sanctioned during FY 2005-06 and FY 2006-07. The fresh investment will enable the Textile Industry to expand capacities and achieve economies of scale. The textile exports from the country have increased from $14.5 bn in 2004-05 to estimated exports of over $19 bn in 2007-08. The Industry is striving hard to augment its capabilities, diversify its product mix, manage growing cost pressures and strengthen its global competitiveness. The Textile Summit 2007 organized by the Ministry of Textiles has made several recommendations for addressing the various constraints being faced by the industry, including pending fiscal policy reforms, market development initiatives and HR challenges. They hope these recommendations will be reflected in the new policies for the textile industry and will strengthen the competitiveness of the industry. 


The Company has been proactively moving towards more liberalized domestic and international trade regime. The company chalked out fresh investments amounting to about Rs.20000 millions by way of capacity expansion and modernization. The company commissioned a new yarn unit-Vardhman Yarns at Satlapur (M.P.) in 2007 with initial capacity of 30,000 spindles. The capacity has since been expanded to present level of 1,23,552 spindles. Vardhman Yarns is well on its way of achieving the ultimate capacity of approx. 2,30,000 spindles. The unit is also establishing its own captive power plant of 2-1 MW which is likely to be operational during the current year. 


The integrated textile unit of the Company Vardhman Fabrics' at Budni (M.P.) has also started commercial production in 2007-2008. Vardhman Fabrics will have 60,000 spindles for yarn spinning, 2,830 rotors and 400 airjet looms, besides having yarn dyeing capacity of 10 TPD and fabric processing capacity of 60 million meters per annum. Out of the above, 40,800 spindles, 2,160 rotors, 310 looms and fabric processing capacity of 40 million meters per annum have already become operational during 2007-2008 and the remaining capacity is likely to be operational during the current financial year. Further, the unit also has its own captive power plant of 24 MW, which has become operational during 2007-2008. However, the optimum level of utilization of the increased capacities could also not be achieved in 2007-08 because of initial hiccups which are expected to normalise over a period of time. 


With these projects, Vardhman Group will emerge as a strong integrated textile house, catering to the diverse requirements of the customers. The planned increase in capacity will generate economies of scale and adoption of technology will boost the productivity and quality to customers' delight. 


Steel Business: 

The global steel market has been on the rise since September last year. The market moved up in steps till December, 2007 but has gone wild since the advent of 2008 across all regions of the globe. The combined scarcity of coal, coke and steel has had a telling impact on the world steel markets. 


The Indian market that was too heating up along with the global market since last 2-3 months, has been interrupted as the government has lifted custom duty on steel imports and levied 10-15% duty on steel exports. This move shall help in cooling down the domestic market to some extent, if there is no further increase in the price in the global market. 


However the high prices of steel and the increased interest rates in India is likely to hit the automobile demand this year. Year 2007-08 saw only 1% growth in alloys steel demand and this fiscal is going to be even tougher. Any early respite in the steel prices seems to be unlikely and this does not augur well for the steel demand worldwide and in the domestic markets.

FINANCIAL CONDITIONS and LIQUIDITY: 

The Company enjoys a rating of 'AA-' and 'P1+' from Credit Rating Information Services of India Limited (CRISIL) for long term and short term borrowings respectively. Management believes that the Company's liquidity and capital resources should be sufficient to meet its expected working capital reeds and other anticipated cash requirements.

 

Management perception of Risk and concern: 

The major challenge to the industry in the last year was the almost 14% appreciation in the Indian rupee against US dollar, which has serious implication for the Indian Textile Industry. Being highly competitive industry especially in international trade, increase in the external value of rupee has virtually crippled the competitiveness of the industry. Though Government announced some relief for the industry, however, more attention is required for addressing the issues of competitiveness of the Textile Industry on long term basis. Another important issue is availability, quality and the price of power. The availability of good quality power at reasonable prices is critical for sustainability of the industry. However, the cost of power has been continuously increasing adding to the input cost pressure in the industry. They hope that power situation will improve in the coming year. 


Their major raw material-Cotton is an agriculture produce, which suffers from climatic volatility in the major cotton producing countries. In addition, growing demand as well as overall increase in prices of commodities in the world have pushed up the prices of domestic cotton as well leading to pressure on the Textile Industry. They are making all efforts to cope up with the challenges through continuous cost reduction, process improvements and improved customer services to mitigate the growing cost pressure. 

 

Because of slow down in the US and increase in the prices of Raw Material i.e. Cotton and Synthetic Fibre, they do believe that margins in Textile Industry will remain under pressure in the current year. Moreover, appreciation of Rupee which affected last two quarters of 2007-08 far more has reduced competitiveness of Textile Industry. In view of the fact that India has large Export Oriented Textile Industry any perceptible slow down in world market may have an adverse impact on the prices in domestic market. 


Notwithstanding these pressures, country and the Government will be increasingly concerned about potential of employment, the Textile Industry does offer and therefore, in the long run they think that the capacities created now will be fruitful for the group in order to serve the customers better and to have confidence of large buying houses. This may happen in 2-3 years. 


Human Resources/Industrial Relations: 


The Company continues to lay emphasis on building and sustaining an excellent organizational climate based on human performance. Performance management is the key word for the company. During the year the Company employed over 23,350 employees. 


Pursuit of proactive policies for industrial relations has resulted in a peaceful and harmonious situation on the shop floors of the various plants.
