BUSINESS AND OPERATIONS

The textile operations of the company are doing well and the long term prospects look promising, both for domestic and export markets. The consolidation of sourcing by global majors and shift in focus towards India to de-risk sourcing risk is the major driver for export growth. The growth in domestic demand is due to increase in per capita income as an outcome of GDP growth. with increased capacities across the value chain, the company is capitalizing on these opportunities as evidenced by increased operations and sales. The company has also expanded its marketing initiatives across geographies which has resulted in a healthy order book apart from de-risking its business model. The company is now consolidating its operations and focusing on more value added products like yarn dyed shirting and technical and work wear fabrics. The prospects for the polyester business also look quite encouraging. The domestic cash and carry initiative of the company are carried out through a wholly owned subsidiary ‘Alok H and A Limited’ under the store brand “H and A’ which have started showing encouraging results.

 

The company presently has 226 stores across India and expects to reach a total of 400 stores by end of March 2011. The stores are operated on franchisee basis thereby facilitating ‘non-cash’ heavy expansion. The stores are targeted towards mass market with focus on Tier II and Tier III cities and the store area is also being increased to accommodate all product categories. The overseas retail initiatives are carried out through Grabal Alok (UK) Limited, which operates 212 stores across England, Scotland and Wales. The stores operate as value format stores offering a wide range of products under men, women, children, home and accessories categories. Originally branded as ‘qs’ stores, they are now gradually being given a new brand identity ’Store Twenty One’. A series of other measures such as shifting of sourcing to Asian countries, improving quality of merchandise, cost reduction initiatives have started showing positive results. The number of stores are being increased to further penetrate and capitalize on the new brand identity.

 

More details about the Company’s business structure and initiatives are contained in the Management Discussion and Analysis.

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS 

Economic Overview

The world recovered faster than anticipated from the shocks of 2008 and 2009, in no small measure due to unprecedented amounts of money being infused by various governments and central banks into the global economic system. From a degrowth of 0.5% in 2009, world output in 2010 is expected to grow to an impressive 4.25%1. The progress, however, has not been uniform and across the board. The US economy is now showing signs of recovery, with three straight quarters of deseasonalised growth. On the other hand, Europe, and especially the Euro zone, however, remains an area of concern. Greece will need financial assistance totalling € 750 billion; Portugal and Spain also remain vulnerable. Any fiscal or budgetary shocks to these economies may strain the Euro. Asian economies have, by and large, weathered the recessionary shocks better, thanks to more robust domestic markets and prudent fiscal policies. These economies are off to a ‘fast start’ and are expected to be the drive global economic growth in the near future.

 

Asia

The Asian economies have fared better than their Western counterparts. With the exception of Japan, nearly all emerging Asian countries, especially in South Asia and South East Asia, are showing signs of economic recovery in 2009; the growth indicators for 2010 and 2011 are also quite positive (Chart A). In Asia, India and China have been economic growth drivers, not just at the regional level but at the global level (Chart B).

 

China’s economy grew by a remarkable 8.7% during 2009, when the rest of the world was struggling in the midst of one of the worst global economic slowdowns. By Q4 2009, China was back to double-digit growth. Q1 2010 saw accelerated growth across all key sectors. Industrial production picked up substantially, growing at 14.5% versus 5.3% during Q1 2009 and 9.5% for 2009 as a whole. Services grew at 10.2%, versus 7.4% in Q1 2010 and 8.9% for 2009.

 

India

As per the statistics released by Government of India on 31.05.2010, India’s Q4 2009-10 GDP growth was 8.6%; consequently, for 2009-10 as a whole, India’s GDP growth has been estimated at 7.4%. Among the major economies, this is the fastest growth rate, with the exception of China. What is more encouraging about the growth is that a substantial part of this has been contributed by the manufacturing sector. Driven by continued domestic consumption demand and a sharp increase in the level of exports, average IIP growth for 2009-10 was at 10.3%, a substantial improvement compared to 2.8% growth witnessed in 2008-09. The April 2010 Index of Industrial Production (IIP) continues the trend, reflecting year-on-year growth of 17.6%, - the seventh month in succession that the IIP has grown at a double digit rate. Inflation, however, remains an area of concern. The Wholesale Price Index (WPI) inflation in March 2010 touched 9.9%, the highest in the last 17 months. Consumer Price Index (CPI) inflation is even higher – at around 14.8%. To stabilise inflationary pressures and to reduce money supply, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has hiked its repo and reverse repo rates, and also revised the cash reserve ratio (CRR) upwards to 6%.

 

Textiles and Clothing and Fibres

World Trade

Textiles and clothing together account for 3.9% of the world’s merchandise trade and 5.9% of the global manufactures (Chart C). The world’s merchandise value of textiles and clothing is estimated at US$ 612 billion, of which textiles contribute US$ 250 billion and clothing US$ 362 billion.2 There are lingering effects of the slowdown, especially in the Western economies; however, global textile and apparel markets are starting to recover. During the slowdown, the highend luxury segment in the U.S. and Europe was especially affected; consumers switched from high cost ‘brand value’ textile and apparel to ones that are of high quality but at reasonable prices. This created loss in production and job losses, especially in US and Europe: US fabric production has dropped from US$ 44.5 billion in 2007 to US$ 30.8 billion in 2009. Asian producers, however, have benefited. Over a period of time, Asian manufacturers have gained a reputation of being able to supply large volumes of quality textiles and apparel at extremely competitive prices. This is borne out by numbers: in textiles, exports from Asia to Africa increased by 20%, while those from Asia to the Middle East rose by 18%3. As per the latest data available (that of 2008), the world’s biggest textile exporter in 2008 was the EU27, followed by China, USA, Hong Kong, South Korea, India, Turkey, Taiwan, Japan and Pakistan. The EU27 was also the biggest textile importer, followed by the USA. China ranked third, followed by Hong Kong, Japan, Vietnam, Turkey, Russia, Mexico and the United Arab Emirates (UAE). In clothing, China was the world’s leading exporter, followed by the EU27, Hong Kong, Turkey, Bangladesh, India, Vietnam, Indonesia, Mexico and the USA. In 2008, 47% of the world’s total clothing imports went to EU countries; the USA took 22%, Japan 7% and Russia 6%.

 

The Indian Textile Industry

India’s textile industry has a pervasive effect on its economic life. As the second largest employer (after agriculture), the industry provides direct employment to about 35 million people; it also contributes to about 14% of industrial production, 4% to the GDP and 12% to India’s exports basket. The industry size is estimated at about US$ 63.40 billion (2008 figures), of which US$ 41 billion is driven by domestic demand, and the balance US$ 22.40 billion is exports. Exports declined marginally in 2008-09 to US$ 20.94 billion, due to the global slowdown in demand, but with economic recovery being witnessed in Western economies, especially the US, this figure is expected to rise (see Chart D for India’s region-wise export distribution). Of the exports, 42% is comprised of readymade garments, while apparel and cotton textiles together make up about 72% of total exports.

 

The Indian textile industry uses a large and diverse range of fibers and yarn; however, cotton is its major input material. Cotton comprises of approximately 56% of the total fibers and yarn that is consumed by the Indian textile industry. Therefore, cotton availability and prices are a major determinant of production efficiency and profitability of textile units. Acreage under cotton cultivation in India had been continuously increasing over the last four years; however the October 2008 – September 2009 cotton season saw a reduction of acreage under cotton by 1% (9.37 million hectares vs. 9.44 million hectares in 2007-08).

 

During the economic slowdown, textile mills, especially the smaller units, had cut down on production. As a result, domestic cotton consumption, which had reached 3.98 million tons in 2007-08, had reduced by around 6% to 3.76

million tons. This position, however, has now changed, with demand picking up. Cotton prices have been consistently rising, as can be seen from Chart E6.

 

As stated earlier, textile and apparel production in India is significantly predicated on domestic demand. With a growing population, smaller (and, therefore, more numerous) households and an economy that is back on a high growth path, demand fluctuations that are normally seen in Western countries is not so apparent in India. In fact, the domestic market is expected to grow from US$ 41 billion in 2009 to US$ 65 billion in 2014; exports are expected to grow from US$ 22 billion to US$ 50 billion during the same period. This, however, also comes with caveat. Considering that the asset turnover ratio of the industry as a whole is at about 1.25: 1, the need to double production in order to meet demand will also entail investments to the tune of Rs. 1400000.000 millions (US$ 32 billion) by 2012.

 

Financial Performance

Subject (‘Alok’ or ‘the Company’) closed 2009-10 with a 45% growth in sales (48% growth in export sales), over 55% growth in operating Earnings before Interest, Depreciation and Taxes (operating EBIDTA) and more than 31% increase in PAT. At the end of the year, the Company’s order book stood at Rs. 11640.000 millions, which translates to over three months’ total sales of 2009-10. Table 1 summarises Alok’s financial performance for the past three years.

Apparel Fabric exports have stayed steady during 2009-10 at Rs. 2596.500 millions (Rs. 2581.400 millions in 2008-09); a similar situation is seen in the Garments division, which recorded export sales of Rs. 1311.400 millions in 2009-10 (Rs. 1262.200 millions in 2008-09). Polyester Yarn exports doubled in 2009-10 – from Rs. 1254.900 millions in 2008-09 to Rs. 2527.600 millions in 2009-10. Cotton exports stood at Rs. 2253.100 millions in 2009-10.

ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

THE GLOBAL ECONOMY

 

The recovery is gaining strength, but unemployment remains high in advanced economies, and new macroeconomic risks are building in emerging market economies.

 

After reducing by 0.6% in 2009, world economic output was back on positive track registering 5% growth in 2010. Much of the new growth impetus came from developing and emerging economies that witnessed 7.1% growth in 2010 compared to 2.6% in 2009. Even the advanced economies recovered from a 3.6% contraction in output in 2009 to a growth of 3% in 2010

 

In advanced economies, the handoff from public to private demand is advancing, reducing concerns that diminishing fiscal policy support might cause a “double-dip” recession. Financial conditions continue to improve, although they remain unusually fragile. In many emerging market economies, demand is robust and overheating is a growing policy concern.

 

Developing economies, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa, have also resumed fast and sustainable growth. Rising food and commodity prices pose a threat to poor households, adding to social and economic tensions, notably in the Middle East and North Africa. Oil price increases since January 2011 and information on supply, including on spare capacity, suggest that the disruptions so far would have only mild effects on economic activity. An earthquake in Japan has exacted a terrible human toll. Its macroeconomic impact is projected to be limited, although uncertainty remains elevated

 

INDIA

 

• Advanced estimates of the CSO, Government of India, estimates India is firmly back on growth momentum with 8.6% growth in 2010-11

 

• The Reserve Bank had projected year-on-year WPI inflation for March 2011 at 7 per cent. However, further upside risks have stemmed from high international crude prices, their impact on freely priced petroleum products, the increase in administered coal prices and pick-up in non-food manufactured product prices

 

• While the budgeted level of fiscal deficit for 2011-12 gives some comfort on the demand front, a potential increase in the subsidies on petroleum products and fertilizers as a result of high crude prices could put pressure on expenditure

 

To sum up, the underlying inflationary pressures have accentuated, even as risks to growth are emerging. Rising global commodity prices, particularly oil, are a major contributor to both developments. As domestic fuel prices are yet to adjust fully to global prices, risks to inflation remain clearly on the upside, reinforced by the persistence of demand-side pressures as reflected in non-food manufacturing inflation

 

THE TEXTILE INDUSTRY

 

Global Textile and Apparel Trade

 

• The US imports of textile and apparel from the world shows a rising trend on an annual basis. The imports in Feb ’11 have jumped by 12% to reach US$ 7.42 bn as compared to Feb 2010. On a quarter on quarter basis also, the imports jumped by 17% to US$ 24 bn for quarter ending Dec’10 as compared to same quarter previous year.

 

• Total textile and apparel imports of EU from the world rose by 27% in Jan 2011 to touch US$ 12 bn as compared to Jan ’10. Even last year, the total EU imports of textile and apparel goods increased by 12% to reach US$ 122 bn, for Jan – Dec 2010 as compared to same period previous year.

 

Indian Textile Update

 

• The Indian exports of textiles and apparel category to EU has also shown a positive growth. The exports have grown by 17% for the ten months ending Jan 2011 as compared to same period last year.

 

• Indian Textiles and Apparel market, both domestic and exports, continues to grow. In 2010, the total ‘Indian T&A

market’ was estimated to be around Rs 3680000.000 millions (US$ 78 bn) and is estimated to grow @ 11% CAGR to reach Rs 10320000.000 millions (US$ 220 bn) by 2020.

 

• Start of 2011, has witnessed a further strengthening of yarn prices. Due to demand side pressures, there is a continuous rise in raw material prices. The average prices of cotton yarn rose by 45 % YoY in Mar ’11 to reach Rs. 207/Kg while PV yarn and PC yarn has shown 35% increase each for the same period and stands at Rs. 233/kg and Rs. 221/kg respectively

 

 

Recent Government Initiatives: There have been various steps taken by the Government to continually support the Textile and Clothing Sector:

 

Scheme for Integrated Textile Parks (SITP): 40 Textile Park projects have been sanctioned by the Textile Ministry till date in various states. These Parks are planned to have facilities for spinning, sizing, texturising, weaving, processing, apparels etc. and are expected to employ approximately 7.5 lakh persons. Till date four projects have been completed and production started in 24 out of 40. So far government assistance of Rs. 8826.000 millions has been provided for execution of these projects. The promoters of these textiles park projects have brought in Rs.10000.000 millions (approx.) as their contribution.

 

Technology Up-gradation Fund Scheme (TUFS): Since its inception, Rs.111960.000 millions of subsidy has been released. The Union Budget for 2011-12 has provided an allocation of Rs 29800.000 millions for the scheme. Government has also enhanced subsidy allocation for modernisation of the textiles industry to Rs 154040.000 millions from earlier sanction of Rs 80000.000 millions for the current Plan ending 2012. Of the additional Rs 74040.000 millions, Rs 19720.000 millions would be available for fresh sanctions while the remaining Rs 54320.000 millions is meant for fulfilling the committed liabilities under the TUF scheme. Some key points of the new scheme, which focuses on balanced development and forward integration, are:

 

• 5% interest re-imbursements plus 10% capital subsidy for spinning units with matching capacity in weaving/knitting/ processing/garmenting

 

• Reducing repayment period to 7 years with 2 years moratorium to promote financial efficiency

 

• 5% interest re-imbursements plus 10% capital subsidy for establishment of new shuttle less looms

 

• Interest subsidy/capital subsidy/margin money subsidy on the basic value of the machineries excluding the tax

component for the purpose of valuation

 

 

Cotton Yarn Exports – Approval: Ceding to the demands of the Cotton Yarn exporters, the Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) under the Ministry of Commerce announced approval of cotton yarn exports from April 1, 2011 subject to registration of export contracts with DGFT.

BENCHMARKS TRADE FIRM TRACKING STRONG GLOBAL CUES

 

Accord Fintech (India)

22 July 2011

 

India, July 22 -- The Indian equity markets are trading firm after making a positive start tracking positive cues from global equity indices. The US markets made a good bounce back overnight on sign that European leaders are getting closer to agreeing on a broad approach to dealing with the region's debt troubles while; all the Asian markets barring KLSE Composite were trading in the positive terrain at this point of time, indicating strong investors' sentiment. Back home, sustained buying in mostly all the key heavyweights along with broader indices supported BSE's -- Sensex -- and NSE's -- Nifty -- to trade comfortably over their crucial 18,500 and 5,550 mark respectively. On the sectoral front, software witnessed the maximum gain in trade followed by pharma and energy, while there were no losers on the NSE sectoral space. Meanwhile, textile stocks viz., Alok Industries, Vardhman Textile and Grasim Industries all were trading with a gain in the range of 0.50-1.50 percent on the buzz that the government is mulling to allow an export of 8 lakh more bales of cotton. The government had on June 8 allowed the export of 10 lakh bales of 170 kg each beyond the earlier ceiling of 55 lakh bales for the current cotton season (October 2010-September 2011). The broader indices on the NSE were outperforming benchmarks. The market breadth on the NSE was positive; there were 860 shares on the gaining side against 284 shares on the losing side. The index is currently trading at 18,546.16, up by 109.97 points or 0.59%. Due to some technical issues the BSE data were not getting updated. Meanwhile, to meet the growing demand of energy, India is considering creating a sovereign wealth fund (SWF) with above $10 billion, from its foreign-exchange reserves to buy energy assets overseas. Though the plan of creating country's first SWF is still in its early stage but has started facing headwinds as the Reserve Bank of India had raised its concern over using foreign exchange reserves for SWF.�� India's energy demand is increasing with the economic growth and development, and as the traditional source of energy is expected to shrink in future, the unconventional energy sources like shale gas, coal-bed methane and oil sands are attracting attention of fastest growing countries like China and India. In recent time, China has outpaced India in race to acquire oil and coal blocks in different parts of world, to meet its growing demand for the energy. The petroleum ministry had suggested setting up such mechanism in order to secure country's energy supply against the growing demand. However, Reserve Bank of India is not in a favor of using foreign reserves for financing the SEF, as the reserves are used for financing country's Current Account Deficit (CAD). During 2010-11, India's CAD was 2.6% of Gross Domestic Product and in the first week of July, country's foreign exchange reserves stood at more than $314 billion as on July 8.The deputy Chairman of Planning Commission, Montek Singh Ahluwalia said 'There is a group which is examining this but no decision has been taken.' The original size of the fund was $10 billion but since commodity prices have increased, the size of fund, if approved could be higher. However, the government is considering other option and can put aside funds for SWF from budget. But government is less likely to fund SWF through budgetary allocations as it may find it difficult in current fiscal year and in coming year government is expected to spend on populist schemes as there in elections in Utter Pradesh and Gujarat. The S and P CNX Nifty opened at 5,576.95; about 35 points higher compared to its previous closing of 5,541.60, and has touched a high and a low of 5,585.35 and 5,567.10 respectively.
