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 & 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 & 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.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS REPORT: 

 
 Textile Business: 

 The Indian Textile Industry has passed through a tough operating environment during the last many years. However, the fortune of the industry is looking up in view of the phasing out of quantitative restrictions and integration of trade in textile and clothing with WTO. The Government has also initiated policy reforms in the textile industry, thus creating a level playing field for organized textile producers like the Company. The trade data indicates impressive growth of textile and clothing exports to major importing countries like USA & European countries. The domestic market has also recorded healthy growth. As a result, the investment environment in the Industry has considerably improved. However, the price pressure both in domestic and international market continues, leading to lower profit margins. The input costs particularly the power and personnel cost continue to increase at a fast pace. The growing input costs pose a major challenge to the competitiveness. At the same time most of the organised players including the Company have chalked out ambitious growth plans for capacity expansion and additions to the product portfolio. 

 

The Company's main raw material is cotton and cotton yield in the country is amongst the lowest in the world. In the past years, due to the efforts made by the Company alongwith other members of the Textile industry and the Government, the cotton yield has been increasing and the country had back to back bumper cotton crops. In the current financial year too the indications are that the area under cotton cultivation is likely to increase as also the yield so the cotton supply position should remain comfortable. 


 
The  Company has chalked out an Expansion-cum-Modernization Plan of Rs. 23000 Millions  (approx.). This will help it expand capacities in the major businesses of yarn and fabrics. With the proposed expansions, the finished fabric production will increase by 60 million meters per annum. Similarly, the spinning capacity will increase by about 0.250 Millions spindles. This will give it an opportunity to serve the customers with larger volumes, wider product portfolio and more sophisticated products. The proposed expansion will put the Company on steady growth path, which will enable us to fulfill expectations of various stakeholders. 


Steel Business: 

 

The Steel Division of the Company has focus on Alloy and Special Steel. This caters to the demand of Automobile Sector, Forging Industry and Special Steel users in the Capital Goods Industry. The growth in Automobile Sector and Auto Component Sector is likely to create increase in demand for these varieties of Steel. The Steel business has performed well this year but not as well as last year when the Company got the benefit of rising prices and heavy inventory gain.  

 

Management perception of Risk & Concern: 

They perceive risk on four accounts mainly. First, is the price of the raw material, which is cotton in their case. Having a significant share in value of output, the cotton price has a major impact upon the profitability. It is matter of great satisfaction that the cotton crop in the country has been growing on account of increased productivity and increasing area under cotton cultivation. Through CII, they are also making efforts to impart necessary training to the cotton growers about scientific cotton cultivation practices to improve cotton yield, which has started paying dividends in terms of higher productivity. For instance, during the current year, there is a clear indication of the revival of cotton production in Punjab. Their second risk perception is about the conversion cost especially the energy cost, which is higher than other competing countries like Pakistan, Bangladesh, China etc. They are adopting energy saving and optimization measures to keep the energy cost under control. Third, with phasing out of quota system, the intensity of competition in the domestic and international market is likely to increase. This will put pressure on product prices and profitability. Fourth, the Company has undertaken a Massive Expansion Plan. Executing this expansion plan and then stabilizing the operations will require a lot of management efforts and so there is the project execution risk. However, the Company is taking all possible steps to see that the potential downside from the risks is reduced. 


Human Resources/Industrial Relations

 

The Company continues to lay emphasis on building and sustaining an excellent organisation climate based on human performance. Performance management is the key word for the Company. During the year, the Company employed over 15,900 employees. 

 

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

 

The Company has in place a system of Corporate Governance. A separate report on Corporate Governance forming part of the Annual Report of the Company is annexed hereto. A certificate from the Auditors of the Company regarding compliance of conditions of Corporate Governance as stipulated under Corporate Governance Clause of the Listing Agreement is annexed to the report on Corporate Governance.

AS PER WEBSITE:

 

In India, Vardhman is synonymous with threads. Not just threads for clothes, but for furnishings, wallets, hand bags, suitcases, shoes, car upholstery, tents, industrial applications and even kite-flying.

In each case, users' demands differ. Designers expect strength in some threads, strength and finish in another, the qualities of fusion in a third. A leather craftsman expects a completely different combination of attributes. An automobile manufacturer spells out another set of specifications. So does the little boy on the rooftop, the kite flyer.

Reputed manufacturers and buying houses prefer Vardhman because of its unswerving commitment to quality and service.

HAND EMBROIDERY

People have always found deep personal pleasure and sense of satisfaction in creating articles of daily use and artistic works from basic equipment and materials. One of the crafts practiced since times immemorial is needlecraft and embroidery - the urge to create with colourful threads. Embroidery was used in Ancient Egypt to decorate the hems of royal robes, in tapestries in the Middle Ages, and in ladies' samplers during the Colonial and Victorian eras. It continues as an art form today.

 

Hand embroidery is used to decorate wall hangings, pillowcases, quilts and table runners. Hand embroidery differs from counted cross stitch in that it uses many different types of stitches to achieve texture and interest, whereas counted cross stitch uses a single stitch and relies on color and shading for texture. Five stitches form the basis for hand embroidery. The stitches are outline, satin, lazy daisy, cross and French knot.

 

Hand embroidery is a beautiful art that almost anyone can learn. It is an art that should be preserved and well worth learning. The hand embroidery market in India is segmented into three segments.

HAND EMBROIDERY

People have always found deep personal pleasure and sense of satisfaction in creating articles of daily use and artistic works from basic equipment and materials. One of the crafts practiced since times immemorial is needlecraft and embroidery - the urge to create with colourful threads. Embroidery was used in Ancient Egypt to decorate the hems of royal robes, in tapestries in the Middle Ages, and in ladies' samplers during the Colonial and Victorian eras. It continues as an art form today.

Hand embroidery is used to decorate wall hangings, pillowcases, quilts and table runners. Hand embroidery differs from counted cross stitch in that it uses many different types of stitches to achieve texture and interest, whereas counted cross stitch uses a single stitch and relies on color and shading for texture. Five stitches form the basis for hand embroidery. The stitches are outline, satin, lazy daisy, cross and French knot.

Hand embroidery is a beautiful art that almost anyone can learn. It is an art that should be preserved and well worth learning. The hand embroidery market in India is segmented into three segments.
