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

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.
