INDIAN ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

India’s current account deficit narrowed in the quarter ended September as government measures to curb imports, especially gold, kicked in.  The current account deficit, the excess of a country’s imports of goods and services over exports, narrowed to $ 5.2 billion from $ 21 billion in the year ago period, according to provisional Reserve Bank of India data. Finance Minister P. Chidambaram said the CAD for the year will be less than $ 60 billion or 3 per cent of GDP and the latest data suggests the government may achieve the target.

 

India was ranked 94th among the world’s most corrupt nations list. Denmark and New Zealand topped as the cleanest while Somalia emerged as the most corrupt.

 

India’s services sector activity witnessed a moderate improvement in November over the previous month, even while indicating the fifth successive monthly contraction, according the HSBC survey.

 

$53 million estimated losses suffered by India due to phishing attacks during the third quarter, according to a study by RSA. India ranks fourth in the list of nations hit by phishing attacks. The US remained at the top of the charts. Phishing is the process of acquiring information such as user names, passwords and credit card details by sending e-mails disguised as official mails.

 

Rs.4080 million worth of mobile-phone-based transactions by July 2013 compared to Rs.260 million in September, 2012, according to Deloitte report. The number of transactions has shot up from 94000 to 701000.

 

India aims to earn Rs.400000 million from the bandwidth auction set for January. The merger and acquisition guidelines, cleared by a group of ministers, will be out before the auction begins so that players can make informed decisions on the auctions.

PERFORMANCE REVIEW:

 

Last five years beginning from 2008-09 have been the most challenging period in the history of Indian Textile Industry, which faced multiplicity of adverse factors. Barring the year 2010-11 which reported exceptional recovery, rest of the period was mired in adversities arising from global meltdown, continued slowdown in advanced economies and weakening economic growth in India as well as other developing countries. Business related and political factors also took heavy toll on recovery of the textile industry which witnessed severe power constraints, rising interest rates, wide currency fluctuations, besides considerable mismatch in input / output costs resulting from faulty Government Polices relating to export of cotton and cotton yarn.

 

The first half of the financial year 2012-13 continued to be affected from some of the above adverse factors, but from the second half of the financial year there was distinct all around improvement and the industry was well on the path of recovery. The Government had announced series of policy measures which included un-hindered export of cotton yarn, continuation of Textile Upgradation Fund Scheme and announcement of Foreign Trade Policy which had many positive features for the textile industry including incentive for incremental exports. Simultaneously demand for cotton yarn has also improved significantly. China became one of the major importers of cotton yarn from India and in the year 2012-13 cotton yarn exports from India for the first time exceeded 1000 Million Kgs. The cotton crop at 34 Million bales was also satisfactory to take care of indigenous consumption and yet leave a sizable exportable surplus. The prices of raw cotton which in the beginning of the crop were lower have since settled down at reasonable levels.

 

Unfortunately, the workmen at their Kanjikode Plant in Kerala went on an illegal strike from 23rd August, 2012 while negotiations for long term settlement were going on in the conciliation proceedings undertaken by the Regional Joint Labour Commissioner. This has resulted in total loss of production of this unit and consequent adverse financial impact. In the year, this unit has already lost over seven months of production upto 31.03.2013 and the strike continued in the current financial year as well. But for the above prolonged strike in their Kanjikode Plant, company would have fared much better from the second half of the year. However, the company continued its vigorous thrust to increase the top line growth by undertaking outsourced yarn exports. As a result, they were able to maintain the top line at Rs.4620.000 Millions against Rs.4260.000 Millions. The power situation in Tamil Nadu continues to be a cause of concern and the grid power available is hardly sufficient for operating 30% capacity and to operate the plant at full capacity, the company is obliged to buy power from Trading Platforms at substantially higher prices. The impact of higher power cost at their Ponneri Plant itself in the year was Rs.83.200 Millions. Availability of skilled labour continues to be a challenge at the Ponneri Plant.

 

In spite of all these adverse factors, the Company was able to report operating profit at Rs.261.200 Millions as against Rs.120.300 Millions in the previous year. After providing for finance cost, the cash loss is reduced to Rs.29.200 Millions as compared to Rs.160.700 Millions in the previous year. After providing Rs.203.200 Millions depreciation and the effect of deferred taxation, the net loss was reduced to Rs.158.200 Millions as against Rs.235.400 Millions in the previous year.

 

The illegal strike at their Kanjikode Plant in Kerala, which started on 23rd August, 2012, has been withdrawn consequent to a conciliation settlement arrived at between the Trade Unions and the Management at the meeting called by the Labour Commissioner at Trivandrum on 17.05.2013 in the presence of Hon’ble Minister for Labour. The Plant has reopened on 18.05.2013 and will start contributing towards both top line and operating margin. However, the areas of concern for the Kanjikode Plant are ever rising power tariff in Kerala and continued high cost of salaries and wages as compared to industry norms. With overall improvement in demand for the textile products both in international and domestic markets and relentless efforts put in by the Company, they are confident of achieving better results in the current financial year.

 

MODERNISATION, UPGRADATION AND MARGINAL EXPANSION PLANS:

 

As reported in the previous Directors’ Report, the Company had undertaken modernization, upgradation and marginal expansion plans at Kanjikode Unit and addition of balancing equipments to enhance the output at Ponneri Unit at a Project Cost of Rs.424.100 Millions. During the year, they have so far executed the project to the tune of Rs.217.800 Millions. Due to illegal strike at Kanjikode Plant, execution of the project was held up. Further implementation of the project is now being planned as the strike by the workmen has been withdrawn.

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS:

 

INDUSTRY STRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENTS:

 

The importance of textile industry in the national economy is significant because of its contribution to economic growth, exports and employment. Exports of Textiles and Clothing during 2012-13 are estimated at around 33 billion USD, which works out to a share of about 11% in the total exports from the country of 301 billion USD. This sector currently employs about 35 million workers directly and 47 million workers in allied sectors like Agriculture.

 

The Indian Textile Industry which recovered handsomely in 2010-11 after two years of recession and adverse working, faced another challenging year in 2011-12 because of economic crisis in Eurozone aggravated by Cyprus problem and the weak recovery in US, resulting in demand recession. Broadly, the problems faced by the industry were as under:-

 

1) Global cotton shortage prevailed during 2010-11, and the same resulted in an unprecedented increase in global cotton prices from US $ 0.84 per lb in October 2010 to US $ 2.30 per lb in March 2011 on the New York Futures. The domestic cotton prices also increased from Rs.35000 per candy (356 kg) to Rs.62500 per candy for the Gujarat Shanker-6 variety. The situation was further aggravated due to premature announcement by Government, of cotton export of 55 lakhs bales in 45 days.

 

2) In the context, of losses and working capital crunch faced by the industry from April, 2011 onwards, the Confederation of Indian Textile Industry and other industry Associations requested Government for a Debt Restructuring package for the textile and clothing industry. The Industry’s request was for a moratorium of two years for repayment of principal amounts against terms loans and conversion of working capital eroded due to price fluctuation to Working Capital Term Loans (WCTL). It was also proposed that the package should relax the NPA norms to avoid asset reclassification or additional provisioning for repeatedly restructured loans. The proposal was accepted by the Finance Ministry which referred the matter to RBI for further action. However, RBI declined to accept the request for asset reclassification and therefore, a large number of mills which need repeated restructuring run the risk of turning into NPAs. This in effect would make the unit ineligible for TUFS assistance. CITI has represented to Government to relax NPA norms and allow TUFS benefits to such units.

 

3) Severe power cut as also frequent power interruptions in Tamil Nadu where their Ponneri plant is located, has affected capacity utilization and increased the cost of production substantially.

 

4) The Ministry of Textiles has announced continuation of Technology Upgradation Fund Scheme during Twelfth Five Year Plan period envisaging total investments of Rs. 1510820.000 Millions with a cap of Rs. 400000.000 Millions for the spinning sector. The interest compensation rate under TUFS for spinning sector has been reduced to 4 per cent. The details of the Scheme are under formulation by Government and are expected to be announced soon.

 

5) In its fight against inflation, the RBI had increased the interest rates 13 times between March, 2010 and October, 2011. Moreover, the GDP growth declined to 6.9 per cent in 2011-12 and to 5 per cent in 2012-13. In spite of half a per cent reduction in interest rate in April, 2012, the interest rates are still higher. In the RBI Monetary Policy announced on 3rd May, 2013, RBI has reduced the interest rate further by quarter per cent. Despite these reductions, the average bank credit rate works out to 13 to 14 per cent, which is quite high and adds to the manufacturing cost and makes the cost of raising capital very high.

 

6) Extreme volatility in Forex market also lead to financial uncertainty. Rupee Exchange rate which was Rs. 51.86 to USD in April 2012 depreciated to Rs. 56 in June, 2012, again appreciated to Rs, 53.03 in October, 2012 and closed at Rs. 54.30 at year end.

 

7) Total production of Spun yarn and cotton yarn declined in 2011-12, in spite of the fact that cotton prices were more or less steady during the year. However, production in 2012-13 registered a robust growth of 10 per cent in respect of total spun yarn at 4800 million kgs and 14 per cent in respect of cotton yarn production at 3550 million kgs. The upward trend is expected to be continued in 2013-14. The improvement has come about on account of healthy growth both in the domestic and international markets.

 

8) Acute shortage of skilled and trained man-power is also affecting capacity utilization.

 

SPINNING AND WEAVING CAPACITIES:

 

Figures of world’s installed spinning and weaving capacities are available from International Textile Manufacturers Federation (ITMF) as of October, 2012. As at the end of 2011, world’s total spindleage was 250 million, with China having 120 million spindles, representing the share of 48 per cent and India was having 48 million spindles, representing share of about 19 per cent. As of March, 2013, however, India’s installed spindles have increased to 49.17 million, accounting for almost 20 per cent of the global spindleage. It is pertinent to mention that during the last four years, the spindleage in India has expanded by around 8 million. The capacity utilization of spinning in textile mills substantially increased to 83 per cent in 2011-12 as compared to 63 per cent in 2009-10 and 79 per cent in 2010-11.

 

Deducting 10 million spindles of closed mills, the number of operative spindles works out to around 39 million. The number of installed open-end rotors has marginally increased to 795 thousand in March, 2013 as compared to 771 thousand in March, 2012. It is pertinent to point out that expansion of spinning capacity has been significant both in the organized and small spinning sectors. To meet the rising domestic demand for cotton yarn from the downstream value chain and also to meet higher targets of exports of cotton yarn, the Twelfth Five Year Plan has envisaged investment of Rs.400000.000 Millions in the spinning sector. 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 was announced by the Ministry of Textiles on 28th April, 2011. The Scheme was 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 was 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. It is gratifying that Government has decided to continue TUF Scheme during the Twelfth Plan period, 2012-17. The number of looms in the mill sector which remained stagnant at 71,000 for the three-year period, 2007-08 to 2009-10, declined to 66,000 during 2011-12 and 2012-13. However, the weaving capacity in the powerloom sector has increased from 22.46 lakh looms in 2009-10 to almost 23.33 lakh looms as of December, 2012.

 

PRODUCTION OF YARN:

 

The total production of spun yarn which was 4193 million kgs in 2009-10 expanded to 4713 million kgs in 2010-11, showing a creditable growth of over 12 per cent. However, total production of spun yarn in 2011-12 was lower at 4373 million kgs exhibiting a decline of 7 per cent. For the year 2012-13, total production of spun yarn is provisionally placed at 4842 million kgs showing a robust growth of 11 per cent. Similarly, production of cotton yarn also escalated from 3079 million kgs in 2009-10 to 3490 million kgs in 2010-11. For the year 2011-12, production of cotton yarn was 3126 million kgs. Production of cotton yarn in 2012-13 is provisionally placed at 3562 million kgs and for 2013-14 it is projected at 4000 million kgs.

 

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 exports of cotton yarn. Exports of cotton yarn in 2011-12 are estimated at 750 million kgs valued at 2.99 billion USD as against exports of 694 million kgs valued at 2.7 billion USD in 2010-11. This indicates that unit value declined in 2011-12 as compared to 2010-11. This is mainly due to depressed prices in international markets, intensification of competition and a change in the pattern of trade.

 

China has been increasing its sourcing of cotton yarn from all over the world in view of the high value cotton stock held by it and to meet ever increasing demand for yarn for its domestic knitting and weaving industry. Import of cotton yarn in China increased by 69 per cent from all sources - 1526 million kg in 2012 against 903 million kgs in 2011. As against this, import of cotton yarn from India in the year 2012 increased by 124 per cent. India’s exports of cotton yarn in 2012 were 326 million kgs as against 111 million kgs in 2011. The share of India’s exports of cotton yarn to China accounts for almost 33 per cent of India’s total exports of cotton yarn. Thus, India has emerged as the leading exporter of cotton yarn to China. Increasing imports of cotton yarn by China from India will give a tremendous boost to the Indian spinning industry. As per deliberations at the Cotton Yarn Advisory Board meetings, the Cotton Yarn Balance Sheets for 2012-13 and 2013-14 were drawn up in terms of which exportable surplus were arrived at 1000 million kgs. For 2012-13 and 1150 million kgs for 2013-14. The figure of exports as per export contract registration during 2012-13 is 1067 million kgs. 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 handled exports of cotton yarn earlier has done immense harm to the textile industry. However, since March, 2012, Government has permitted free exports of cotton yarn, subject, of course, to registration of contracts with DGFT.

 

COTTON SCENARIO:

 

For the cotton season 2010-11, Cotton Advisory Board had estimated area under cotton at 112.35 lakh hectares and crop at 339 lakh bales. The per hectare yield for the season increased to 513 kgs as against of 503 kgs achieved in 2009-10. For the cotton season 2011-12, Cotton Advisory Board has estimated the area at 121.78 lakh hectares and a crop of 355 lakh bales. Per hectare yield in the cotton season 2011-12 works out lower at 496 kgs. Although the cotton crop during the 2011-12 season was quite high, the Indian textile industry did not derive the advantage of home-grown cotton on account of unprecedently higher quantum of exports of raw cotton. While the domestic industry was denied better quality cotton at competitive prices, our competitors like China and other South East Asian countries got the advantage of best quality Indian cottons at cheaper prices. For the cotton year 2011-12, CAB had earlier arrived at the figure of 55 lakh bales of cotton as exportable surplus. However, DGFT subsequently allowed exports of raw cotton upto 95 lakh bales, subject to registration of contracts. The total quantity registered for exports was 120 lakh bales. In March, 2012 DGFT banned exports of cotton once it reached the figure of 95 lakh bales. However, due to persistent pressure from the trading community, the Group of Ministers decided that total quantity of registered contracts at 120 lakh bales be allowed for exports. However, actual exports were 129.59 lakh bales. For the cotton season 2012-13, the CAB has estimated the crop at 340 lakh bales and exports at 81 lakh bales. Already, however, cotton export contracts registration has crossed 90 lakh bales.

 

Cotton prices in the current season were almost steady upto January, 2013. Since February 2013, however, cotton prices have exhibited a rising trend. CCI / NAFED covered cotton from farmers when prices went down below the Minimum Support Prices, mainly in Andhra Pradesh, where they covered 2.5 million bales. By not releasing such cotton to the industry, CCI / NAFED has added to the price spiral. Some of the ginners are also holding back their stocks in the hope of earning higher prices. This is affecting the working of textile industry and therefore Confederation of Indian Textile Industry (CITI) and other industry Associations have represented at the highest level to advise CCI / NAFED to offer cotton to the industry at reasonable prices. While on this, it is significant to note that Cotlook ‘A’ Index, representing international prices was 84.40 cents per lb in August, 2012 which has since risen to 93.20 as of 30th April, 2013. Cotlook ‘A’ Index has also shown a rising trend from February, 2013 onwards. Global organic cotton production in 2011 dropped by 37 per cent to 151,079 tons. India, Syria, China, Turkey and the United States were the top five producers in that year. Production in India declined by 48 per cent from 195,412 tons to 102,452 tons on account of regulatory controls exercised by Agricultural and Processed Food Products Export Development Authority (APEDA). Prospects for 2011-12 cotton season indicate that cotton area will decline further in 2011-12 mainly in India. Organic cotton production is expected to reach 143,600 tons in 2011-12. International Cotton Advisory Committee (ICAC) anticipates that the production will start gaining momentum from 2012-13 onwards.

 

While importance of India has a major supplier is declining, that of Central Asian countries of Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan is emerging as dominant suppliers. The average yield in respect of organic cotton is much lower than the conventional cotton. For instance, the overall average yield of countries producing organic cotton was 783 kg/ ha whereas yield of organic cotton was barely 466 kg / ha. With Government’s prediction of normal monsoon for the coming season and other favourable factors like higher cotton exports 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. Undoubtedly, the performance of textile industry hinges largely on adequate availability of quality cotton. The industry has a potential to absorb larger cotton crop with the massive expansion of spinning capacity at the rate of 3 million spindles per year during Twelfth Plan period. However, Government should exercise abundant caution in deciding the policy for exports of raw cotton, keeping overall national interest in mind. According to ICAC, global cotton production, in the season 2011-12 (August -July) was 27.79 million tons and consumption of 22.10 million tons, resulting in ending stocks of 15.27 million tons. This led to decline in cotton prices during 2012-13 by 5 per cent. For the cotton season 2012-13, global production is estimated at 26.34 million tons, lower by 1.45 million tons. Consumption, on the other hand, is expected to increase to 23.71 million tons, a rise of 1.61 million tons. The ending stocks are expected to rise to 17.90 million tons, as against 15.27 million tons in 2011-12. ICAC’s forecast for global cotton production for the cotton season 2013-14 is lower at 24.61 million tons, consumption is forecast at 24.25 million tons.

 

OUTLOOK:

 

Global exports of textiles and clothing in 2011 were 706 billion USD, as per WTO figures. China’s share in the global trade in textiles / clothing was 35 per cent and that of India a barely 4 per cent. With the rising costs in China and its deliberate shift in favour of domestic consumption, India has tremendous scope for boosting its share to a more respectable figure. Further, by 2020, world exports of textiles / clothing are projected to increase to 1,000 billion USD. The expectation is that India’s exports would rise from 30 billion USD to 80 billion USD by 2020. This will provide immense potential to India for enhancing its exports.

 

On the domestic front also India is poised for a healthy growth, in view of rising population, sustained increase in per capita income and disposable surplus, favourable demographic profile and changing lifestyle. Besides, Government of India is becoming increasingly sensitive to the needs of the textile industry and taking ameliorative measures in regard to debt restructuring scheme, extension of TUFS and TMC in the Twelfth Five Year Plan etc. Another area is rapid growth of technical textiles for which Government has been providing encouraging support. The Ministry of Commerce has announced exporter-friendly measures in the Foreign Trade Policy. Favourable policy changes have been made in Focus Product Scheme, Market Product Scheme, Market Linked Focus Product Scheme, Incremental Exports Incentivisation Scheme, Liberalized EPCG Scheme, etc. All these measures will boost exports of textiles and clothing. Above all, India is in a unique position of having an integrated textile set-up endowed with presence across all the textile value chain from fibres to fashion garments. All these favourable factors indicate extremely optimistic and positive future for the healthy growth of the Indian textile industry.
