PERFORMANCE REVIEW

 

Performance of the Company during the year has been impressive, led by strong demand from international as well as domestic markets. The Company’s business was adversely affected during 2008-09 global financial crisis. However, as reported in the previous Directors’ Report, the Company witnessed upswing in consumer demand for textile products from second half of Fiscal 2009-10. This was possible as many of the global economies progressed commendably, sooner than expected, leading to revival of textile industry.

 

Total revenues of the company for the year increased to Rs.1489.300 Millions from Rs.1230.500 Millions. Operating Profit and Cash Profit improved to Rs.186.700 Millions and Rs.112.000 Millions from Rs.111.700 Millions and Rs.35.700 Millions respectively in the previous year. At net level, there was a remarkable turn around with Profit before Tax at Rs.47.100 Millions as against a loss of Rs.32.100 Millions in the previous year. The year was marked with excessive volatility in cotton prices which peaked to historical high owing to shortfall in crop in many of the cotton growing countries. However, your management’s core competency in procurement of cotton helped the Company in judicious and timely buying of raw material. As a result, while the cotton cost could be averaged out, margins could be improved through yarn prices which remained higher in line with cotton prices. The performance could have been still better but for loss of production during negotiation of long term work load and wages agreement which was concluded with workmen during January 2011.

 

 

INDUSTRY STRUCTURE & DEVELOPMENTS

 

The textile industry plays a pivotal role in the Indian economy in terms of industrial production, employment and exports. Its contribution to forex earnings of the country was 11 per cent in 2010-11. This sector currently employs about 35 million workers directly and 47 million workers in allied sectors like Agriculture.

 

Working of Indian textile industry which had undergone a very difficult phase for almost two years from 2007-08 on account of adverse factors like financial turmoil in industrialized countries leading to economic slowdown, unprecedented hike in Minimum Support Prices of Raw cotton and massive exports of raw cotton, recovered remarkably from the third quarter of 2009-10. The markets became buoyant on account of strong domestic demand arising from favourable demographic factor and rapid changes in the lifestyle of consumers. Although currently there is a temporary slowdown in demand both in the domestic and international markets, the overall sentiment is positive and optimistic for the sustained growth in demand in the period ahead. Another favourable factor is that in the coming cotton season, Indian cotton crop is expected to be higher and prices are forecasted to be relatively lower than the current levels. The cumulative impact of all these favourable factors augurs well for the improved working of textile industry.

 

The factors which impact working of textile industry are:

 

(1) The average prices of cotton during October 2010 - March 2011 reached historic high with escalation of around 85 per cent over the corresponding period of last year. This is the primary reason for an increase in the cost of production of cotton yarn. Although from mid-April 2011 cotton prices have shown a softening trend, cotton prices in the period ahead will generally remain at higher level than what was prevailing prior to 2010-11 cotton season.

 

(2) Frequent and several changes brought about by Government in the policy for exports of cotton yarn from April, 2010 onwards, impeding the hitherto smooth flow of exports.

 

(3) Increase of two to three per cent in the cost of borrowings.

 

The focus of monetary policy followed by Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has been to tackle the inflationary pressures in the economy. Consequently, RBI has been escalating the rates of interest from time to time. In fact, during the last one year, the Reserve Bank of India has increased the rate of interest eight times, resulting in cumulative increase of 2.5 per cent.

 

(4) Fluctuations in Rupee Exchange Rate

 

The Rupee exchange rate which was Rs. 44.47 to US Dollar in April, 2010 and Rs. 47 in July 2010, strengthened to Rs. 45 in March, 2011. Any fluctuation in the exchange rate impact export realizations. It is pertinent to mention that despite the above mentioned adverse factors, there has been improvement in the working of textile industry primarily due to strong domestic as well as international demand.

 

SPINNING AND WEAVING CAPACITIES

 

Figures of world’s installed spinning and weaving capacities are available upto end December 2009. As of 2009, world’s total spindleage was 227 million, with China having 110 million spindles, representing the share of 48 per cent and India having 41.53 million spindles, representing 18 per cent. As of December 2010, however, India’s installed spindles have increased to 44.32 million, accounting for 20 per cent of the global spindleage. It is significant to mention that in one year, India’s spindleage has increased by 2.8 million and it is projected that in future spindleage will increase at the rate of 3 to 3.5 million per annum. Deducting 9.88 million spindles of closed mills, the number of active spindles works out to around 34.5 million. The number of installed open-end rotors has also increased to 740 thousand in December, 2010 as compared to 668 thousand in December, 2009. It is pertinent to point out that expansion of spinning capacity has been significant both in the organized and small spinning sector.

In addition, mills have placed huge orders for spindles with machinery manufacturers. This will lead to expansion and modernization of spinning sector. Thus, it will be in a position to cater to the rising domestic demand from the downstream value chain and also cater to higher export demand for cotton yarn.

 

A major chunk of spinning capacity expansion took place under the TUF Scheme, which was operative for a span of eight years from 1st April, 1999 to 31st March, 2007. Further, under the modified TUF Scheme operative from 1st April, 2007, investments during three years 2007-08 to 2009-10, increased considerably towards modernization and expansion of spinning capacity.

 

The Restructured TUF Scheme has since been announced by the Ministry of Textiles on 28th April, 2011. The Scheme will be operative from 28th April, 2011 to 31st March, 2012, the terminal year of the Eleventh Five Year Plan. The major change in the Restructured Scheme is a reduction in the repayment period to seven years with two years moratorium as compared to earlier repayment period of ten years with two years moratorium.

 

The number of looms in the mill sector continues to remain stagnant at 71,000 for the last five years. However, the weaving capacity in the power loom sector has increased from 2.205 Millions looms in 2008-09 to 2.270 Millions looms as of October, 2010.

 

Production of Yarn

 

The total production of spun yarn which had marginally declined from 4003 million kgs in 2007-08 to 3912 million kgs in 2008-09 rose to 4193 million kgs in 2009-10. For the year 2010-11, the production is projected at 4650 million kgs, showing a rise of 11 per cent. Similarly, production of cotton yarn had also escalated from 2896 million kgs in 2008-09 to 3079 million kgs in 2009-10. For the year 2010-11, production of cotton yarn is projected at 3510 million kgs. This shows a rise of 14 per cent. For the year 2011-12, the Textile Commissioner has projected the production of cotton yarn at 3931 million kgs. However, the Industry Associations have projected the production at around 4000 million kgs. With the continuing modernization and expansion in capacity, production of cotton yarn will continue to expand in coming years.

 

EXPORTS OF COTTON YARN

 

In pursuance of National Fibre Policy, Government set up in September 2010, Cotton Yarn Advisory Board (CYAB) to advise the Government on matters pertaining to production, consumption and availability of cotton yarn. There were four meetings of CYAB during the year under review.

 

After protracted deliberations at the Board meetings, the Cotton Yarn Balance Sheet for 2010-11 was drawn up in terms of which exportable surplus was arrived at 720 million kgs. Although some of the stakeholders like AEPC, Tirupur Exporters Association did not agree to this figure, the Ministry of Textiles went ahead and fixed the export ceiling at 720 million kgs for 2010-11. Subsequently, DGFT issued notification restricting exports of cotton yarn from 1st December, 2010, under the licensing procedure. Subsequently, several changes were made in the procedure for exports of yarn. Consequent to the procedural wrangles, exports of cotton yarn came to a grinding halt from mid-January 2011 upto end March, 2011. As a result, stocks of cotton yarn piled up with mills, affecting the financial viability of the spinning industry.

 

The detailed figures of exports of textiles and clothing are published by the Director General of Commercial Intelligence & Statistics (DGCIS). The latest detailed figures published by DGCIS are available only up to September 2010. Hence, no authentic figures of exports of cotton yarn for the full year 2010-11 are available but one could safely assume that exports would have more or less reached the ceiling of 720 million kgs.

 

For the year, 2011-12 also, there was no consensus amongst various stakeholders on the figure of ceiling for cotton yarn exports. However, the Textile Commissioner has recommended to the Government of India a ceiling of 845 million kgs. The representatives of textile industry have recorded their dissent to this figure. The industry has represented to Government that in view of ongoing modernization and expansion of capacity, there is no need to restrict cotton yarn exports which should be allowed freely from 1st April, 2011.

 

Upto 2009-10 exports of cotton yarn were operating smoothly and were in the range of 20 to 22 per cent of the production of cotton yarn. The slipshod manner in which Government has handled exports of cotton yarn has done immense harm to the textile industry. Fortunately, DGFT has since notified that exports of cotton yarn will be free from 1st April, 2011, subject, of course, to registration of contracts with Offices of DGFT.

 

COTTON SCENARIO

 

For the cotton season 2009-10, Cotton Advisory Board has estimated area under cotton at 10.310 Millions hectares and crop 29.5 Millions bales. The per hectare yield for the season dropped to 486 kgs as against 524 kgs achieved in 2008-09 and 567 kgs in 2007-08. For the cotton season 2010-11, Cotton Advisory Board has estimated the area at 11.161 Millions hectares and a crop of 31.2 Millions bales per hectare yield in the cotton season 2011-12 works out lower at 475 kgs.

 

Earlier, the CAB had estimated the crop at 32.9 Millions bales. However, due to unseasonal rains and extreme cold wave, the crop was damaged in Gujarat, Maharashtra and Andhra Pradesh. Almost 88 per cent of the total cotton acreage has been under Bt. cotton. In the years to come, the share of Bt. cotton in the total production is expected to increase.

 

For the cotton year 2010-11 CAB had arrived at the figure of 5.5 Millions bales of cotton as exportable surplus. The full quantity has since been exported. The cotton trade has been clamouring for additional exports in spite of the fact that closing stock is the lowest in the last seven years. The textile industry has been persistently pleading that every cotton year, exports should be allowed only from January after the exportable surplus is determined in December, after providing for two-and-half months stocks for the user industry. It is heartening to note that the Commerce and Industry Minister has made a categorical statement that there was no scope for additional exports of cotton in the current season and therefore further exports of cotton can be considered only in the new cotton season.

 

Production of organic cotton at global level has been continually rising. The global production of organic cotton in 2009-10 reached the level of 2,42,000 metric tons, registering a growth of 15 per cent over 2008-09. India’s production of organic cotton in 2009-10 was over 195,000 metric tons, accounting for a hefty share of 81 per cent in the global production. The world over the demand for organic textile products has been rising and it is expected that India’s production of organic cotton and its downstream products will increase further to meet this demand.

 

With Government’s prediction of normal monsoon for the coming season and other favourable factors like higher cotton prices in the current season, farmers will find it attractive to increase area under cotton cultivation. Other encouraging factors are: growing awareness among farmers for adoption of better technology and augmented supply of a good quality seed. The area under cotton cultivation for the season 2011-12 is expected to rise to 12.0 Millions hectares and preliminary estimates are that cotton production in the next season will be around 35.0 Millions bales, subject to normal monsoon and favourable agro-climatic conditions. Even globally also, cotton production in the coming year is projected to be higher than current year, according to International Cotton Advisory Committee (ICAC).

 

It has been observed that the performance of textile industry hinges largely on adequate availability of quality cotton. The industry has the potential to absorb larger cotton crop with the expansion of capacity. However, Government should exercise abundant caution in deciding policy for exports of raw cotton, keeping overall national interest in mind.

 

According to ICAC, global production of cotton in the season 2009-10 (August –July) was 22 million tons and consumption was 25 million tons. Since consumption was higher than production, ending stocks declined to 8.6 million tons, as against 12.75 million tons in 2008-09. This led to massive increase in cotton prices. For the cotton season 2010-11, global production is estimated higher by 13 per cent at 24.8 million tons and consumption at 25.1 million tons, with lower ending stocks of 8.4 million tons.

 

For the cotton season 2011-12, the ICAC has projected that world cotton production will rise again by 11 per cent to 27.6 million tons. The consumption will be higher at 25.8 million tons as compared to the previous season. Since the production will be higher than consumption, ending stocks will rise to 10.1 million tons. The world ending stocks-to-use ratio, forecast to reach an all-time low of 33 per cent this season, could rebound to 39 per cent in 2011-12. This would be lower than the 10-year average of 49 per cent prevailing before 2009-10.

 

ICAC’s price forecast (Cotlook ‘A’ Index) for the season 2009-10 was 78 cents per pound. For 2010-11 the earlier forecast of 85 cents per pound went totally haywire and the price spurted to a steep level of $ 1.65 per pound. For the season 2011-12, the current forecast is that it will be significantly lower than $ 1.65 per pound, but it will be higher than the ten-year average of 60 cents per pound. It is the considered opinion of cotton experts that for a couple of years, cotton prices might remain at higher level and they will start moderating only after supply imbalance is corrected.

 

OPPORTUNITIES AND THREATS

 

The health of textile units is primarily dependent on adequate availability of quality cottons at competitive prices. With the augmented supply of quality seed and larger production of hybrids and Bt. cottons, production of cotton in the coming season 2011-12 is forecast to be comfortable.

 

It may be stated that Duty Drawback is not incentive but only refund of indirect taxes suffered by export products. Denial of this legitimate due is totally unjustified. Further, remission of duties suffered by exported products is totally WTO-compliant. Withdrawal of Duty Drawback runs counter to the well-accepted Government Policy of not exporting taxes. One can only hope that Government will restore the Duty Drawback for cotton yarn.

 

SEGMENT-WISE OR PRODUCT-WISE PERFORMANCE

 

The Company is engaged in the business of manufacture and export of cotton yarn and accordingly this is the only Single Reportable Segment.

 

OUTLOOK

 

The Indian Spinning Industry has tremendous potential for healthy growth on a sustained basis provided market forces of demand and supply are allowed to operate unhindered. Government’s recent measures for regulating export of cotton yarn are not in consonance with the tenets of liberalization and globalization. Confederation of Indian Textile Industry (CITI), The Cotton Textiles Export Promotion Council (Texprocil) and other concerned organizations have been pleading with the Government not to tinker with the healthy growth of the spinning industry and one can only hope that Government will realize the importance of the same.

 

Fortunately for the spinning industry, the domestic demand continues to be strong and with the revival of export market, prospects for the spinning industry are highly promising and positive.
