HOUSE OF PEARL: SANCTION OF SCHEME OF AMALGAMATION

 

House of Pearl Fashions Limited has informed BSE that the Hon’ble High Court of Delhi, Has on November 11 2011 sanctioned of Amalgamation of Pearl Global Limited With and into House of Pearl Fashions Limited. The scheme will be effective upon filling of the written order with the Register of Companies National Capital Territory of Delhi and Haryana  

 

BUSINESS AND OPERATIONS

With US and European countries coming out of recession, India’s garment exports have steadily increased since over a year. Across the globe, the demand for garments has been steadily increasing. With the recent trends, the future of the garment business look quite promising.

 

Indian share in global textile and apparel trade has potential to increase from its current level of 4.5% to 8% by 2020. However rising cost of cotton and labour cost is a cause of concern. Overall raw material is getting expensive and it is likely to impact consumption pattern also.

 

The company has extended its Sourcing and Development activities to new countries in Asia. Wherever possible, they have focused on cost competitiveness and open new horizons towards Sourcing and Product Development across the globe. The company has leveraged its experience and expertise in cost competitiveness in channelising the business through its manufacturing or outsourcing activities based on buyers requirements.

INDUSTRY STRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENT

The beginning of the year 2011 brought in a ray of light for the after several months of continuous decline in  apparel exports. For the first time in December 2010, the dented apparel industry exports touched USD one billion mark. India’s apparel exports have increased by a whopping 24 per cent in February 2011 over the same month, the previous year to Rs.52840.000 Millions after registering an impressive rise of 18 per cent in January 2011. Though monthly exports of garments in (2010-11) were below the previous year’s levels in the initial months, the situation turned for the better from December 2010. In the first 10 months (April-January) of the last financial year (2010-11) the total garment exports stood at Rs.397870.000 Millions against Rs 417710.000 Millions the previous year.

 

In fact, encouraged by the impressive growth, the target for textile exports has been raised by the Government to around $30 billion for the current financial year against $25 billion achieved in the previous year. The government thinks India has the potential to increase its textile and apparel share in the world trade from the current level of 4.5 per cent to 8 per cent and reach $80 billion by 2020.

 

However, the rising prices of cotton yarn have impacted garment exports. The increase in cost of apparels has shifted foreign buyers to other neighboring markets like Bangladesh and Vietnam, which are cost-effective, Overall raw material is getting expensive and it is likely to impact consumption pattern.

 

COMPANY PERFORMANCE AND FUTURE OUTLOOK

With the recent trends, the future of the garment industry in India look it is quite promising. The Indian garment industry alone provides employment to lakhs of people, a high percentage among who are young women. Therefore, the significance of the Indian garment industry cannot be ruled out when it comes to employment generation and foreign exchange generation. The growth in the garment industry will boost the growth of Indian economy.

 

Despite decline in initial months in the industry the company has achieved a gross income of Rs.22644.600 Millions compared to Rs.18773.700 Millions in last financial year on consolidated basis, a growth of 20%. However, due to pressure on margins by buyers and new projects yet to yield optionally, the bottom line has not grown proportionately.
