MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS 

 

ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

WORLD

 

2011-12 has been a challenging year for the global economy. Growth in global output reduced from 5.3% in Calendar Year (CY) 2010 to 3.9% in CY 2011. The recovery in Advanced Economies (AEs) that seemed to be shaping well at the start of CY 2011 lost steam towards the fag-end of the year and output growth reduced from 3.2% in CY 2010 to 1.6% in CY 2011. Growth in emerging markets, especially China and India, is slowing beyond what was anticipated but these two economies are still likely to provide some support for global recovery. In fact, output growth in the developing and emerging economies reduced from 7.5% in CY 2010 to 6.2% in CY 2011.

 

Amongst the advanced economies, USA grew by 1.7%, while EU countries grew by 1.4%. While there was positive news from USA with improved activity in the second half of CY2011, economic activity took a sharp turn for the worse during the fourth quarter in the Euro area. The future of the Economic and Monetary Union (EMU) became clouded by uncertainty, as the sovereign debt crisis caused sharp increases in key government bond rates. Plummeting confidence and escalating financial stress were major factors in the - 1.3% (annualized) contraction of the euro area economy in Q4, 2011. In contrast, during the same period, the United States, witnessed acceleration in activity, as consumption and inventory investment strengthened. However, the overall subdued demand in the advanced economies resulted in reduction in global trade between advanced economies and emerging economies.

 

The import growth in advanced economies reduced from 11.5% in CY2010 to 4.3% in CY2011. In line with this reduction export growth from emerging economies also reduced from 15.3% in CY2010 to 8.8% in CY2011.

 

In the emerging and developing markets economic activity dampened also due to factors unrelated to the Euro area. In emerging Asia and in Latin America, cyclical factors, including recent policy tightening led to trade and production slowing down noticeably. In Middle East and North Africa (MENA), activity remained subdued amid social unrest and geopolitical uncertainty.

 

The demand slowdown has reduced non-oil commodity prices. However, as Chart C shows, non-oil commodity inflation has not reduced significantly - from 26.3% in CY 2010 to 17.8% in CY 2011. And, geo-political instability and speculative activities have contributed to oil price increase of 31.6% in CY 2011, which is even greater than the 27.9% increase in CY 2010. The widespread effect of high energy prices was evident in rising inflation for consumers. In the advanced economies, consumer prices inflation was 2.7% in CY 2011 against 1.5% in CY 2010 and in emerging and developing economies consumer price inflation increased from 6.1% in CY 2010 to 7.1% in CY 2011. This environment of low economic activity with higher price levels was a significant dampener for consumer confidence across the world.

 

On a positive note, many advanced economies have made good progress in designing and implementing strong medium term fiscal consolidation programmes. At the same time, emerging and developing economies continue to have the benefit of latent demand in their economies and need to continue with reforms to maintain growth.

 

However, problems could easily flare up again in the Euro area and fiscal policy could tighten very abruptly in the United States in 2013. Consequently, while there will be pockets of growth opportunities, there is also considerable uncertainty in the global economy going into 2012-13.

 

 

INDIA

 

Lower global demand, domestic policy uncertainties and the cumulative impact of monetary tightening contributed to growth slowing down considerably to the estimated level of 6.5% in 2011-12. All three sectors of the economy -agriculture, industry and services - slowed down. Even though there was moderation in agriculture growth, the year witnessed an all-time high food-grains output. The services sector moderated primarily due to the slowdown in construction, while the disappointing performance of mining and manufacturing sub-sectors contributed to slackening of industrial growth. The quarterly GDP growth rates where there has been a fall in 2011-12 compared to 2010-11.

 

The growth slowdown has been driven by a sharp fall in investment, some moderation in private consumption and fall in net external demand. These, along with a sense of policy ambiguity and legislative uncertainty, have led to significant dampening of business confidence in the country. Investor confidence, too, has ebbed and consequently there has been a slowdown in foreign investments into India.

 

The balance of payments (BOP) also came under significant stress during Q3 of 2011-12 as the current account deficit widened substantially. Under such conditions with capital inflows declining, there has been a drawing down of foreign exchange reserves. This has resulted in a mismatch in demand and supply in the foreign exchange market resulting in high volatility and sharp fall in the valuation of the rupee against the US dollar and the Euro, especially in the second half. Chart E plots the data.

 

The wider Current Account Deficit, increase in external debt, weakening net international investment position (NIIP) and deteriorating vulnerability indicators need to be addressed through policy measures to stabilise and renew the growth momentum.

 

Inflation has moderated in last quarter of 2011­12 to below 7 %. However, the path of inflation in 2012-13 could remain sticky with high oil prices, large suppressed inflation, and exchange rate pass-through, impact of tax hikes, wage pressure and structural impediments to supply response. The pricing power of companies has declined with moderation in demand as also lower non-oil commodity prices. This should help keep inflationary pressures under control in 2012-13.

 

Monetary policy was strongly anti-inflationary until October 2011 and interest rates were at very high levels. Subsequently, decelerating growth and declining inflation momentum has prompted monetary policy shift to a neutral stance since December 2011. Some easing in liquidity was effected through a total of 125 basis points reduction in the Cash Reserve Ratio (CRR) during January-March 2012. In addition, amidst increasing structural and frictional liquidity deficits during Q4 of 2011-12, the Reserve Bank injected large amounts of primary liquidity through Open Market Operations (OMOs).

 

Early indicators suggest that growth may have bottomed out in Q3 of2011-12 but recovery may be slow during 2012-13. With measures being taken to remove supply-side bottlenecks, progress on fiscal consolidation could create conditions for a more favourable growth - inflation dynamic.

With slowing demand from developed economies, the global textile and apparel industry will see robust demand from developing economies that will witness higher economic growth. The global textile and apparel market is estimated to reach US$ 693 billion in 2012 and is projected to reach US$ 1,018 bn by 2020.

 

The current global textile and apparel industry has evolved as distinct consumption and production hubs. Production was earlier located in developed economies such as USA and UK but over the years the manufacturing has shifted to economies such as India, China, Bangladesh etc. due to the latter's cost advantage. Mature economies have now emerged as major consuming hubs while developing economies are still in the nascent stages of consumption.

 

By 2020, fibre is estimated to grow by CAGR of 2% to reach US$ 121 billion while yarn is expected to grow by a CAGR of 3% to reach US$ 293 billion. In volume terms, fibre is estimated to reach 62 million tons while yarn is expected to reach 88 million tons in the same period.

 

The global fabric production volume is projected to increase by CAGR of 3% to reach 475 billion sq mtrs and its value is projected to reach US$ 475 billion by 2020. The global garment production will reach 185 billion pieces by 2020 and its market is projected to reach US$ 650 billion by 2020.

 

 

GLOBAL FIBER DEMAND

 

With the rapid increase in world population, the demand of fiber is also on a rise. From the current levels, the estimated increase in the world population is 0.7 billion and the per capita fiber consumption for the world, is expected to touch 14kgs, in the next 10 years. This indicates a big jump in the fiber consumption and hence the existing supply capabilities will need to be pushed up. The trend of world population and the world average fiber consumption per capita.

 

On a continent level, the fiber consumption per capita for the developed world is much higher than the developing economies. Within Asia, there is a very large gap in the consumption per capita of India and China

 

Given a higher GDP growth and a larger population base, the demand in the coming decade is expected to be much higher from the emerging economies. And this higher demand will need to be addressed through additional investment capabilities.

 

Interestingly, the world share of cotton fiber consumption per capita has declined to 4 kg per capita (-33% of total consumption) and the share of non cotton has increased to 8 kgs per capita. Going forward, similar trend is expected with higher demand for the non cotton or polyester fibre.

 

 

GLOBAL SUPPLY DYNAMICS

 

In 2010, cotton witnessed volatility in prices which increased the cost of production of garments and pushed up retail prices. The main reason was the low stocks-to-use ratio. The in-transit stocks of cotton gin fell to 34% of consumption. However the roots of rising prices can be traced to the recession and global meltdown in 2009 when inventories throughout the value chain were drawn lower. However with the consumer sentiment rebounding in 2010, demand for cotton reached new heights putting upward pressure on prices. The demand was further stifled as few cotton producing nations decided to ban cotton exports in order to serve the domestic market demands.

 

A recent trend that is slowly emerging is the increased use man-made fibre (MMF) in garments. Unable to pass on the rising input cost of using higher cotton blend in apparel, manufacturers have increased the proportion of MMF in apparels. As seen in the following graphs, USA imports of apparel has increased by 9% in value although volume had negative growth by 4% indicating the price rise of imports. In 2011, cotton apparel imports by volume witnessed negative growth of 12% while value of such imports increased by 3%. On the other hand, both value and volume of MMF apparel imports increased by 19% and 8% respectively.

 

Apart from rising cost of raw material, the textile and apparel industry is facing upward cost pressure from other parameters as well. Major cost components like power and raw material have been increasing significantly and contributing to overall increase in production costs. For e.g. the increase in total cost of production of ring yarn has increased by a CAGR of 8% in the time period 2006-10.

 

Textile and apparel industry is a very labour intensive industry. The primary reason why manufacturing jobs in this industry shifted from developed to developing countries was the cost advantage offered by the latter. But rising standard of living and inflations has pushed up labour costs across the textile and apparel manufacturing countries. India saw an average increase of 10% to 15% in labour cost other countries like China and Cambodia saw increase in labour cost ranging from 15% to 35%.

 

 

ROLE OF CHINA IN GLOBAL TEXTILE AND APPAREL INDUSTRY

 

China is the world's second largest economy with annual GDP of US$ 5.8 trillion growing nearly by CAGR of 10%. The contribution of this country cannot be undermined as China is the largest exporter of textile and apparel products. In 2010, China accounted for 36% share in global textile and apparel trade. However as a result of natural transition towards a developed economy, China's concentration on high-end and value generation industries is increasing and diminishing towards the traditional textile and apparel industry.

 

The textile industry is an energy intensive industry. Due to the textile industry, China contributes nearly 25% of global carbon dioxide emissions and it reach 8.2 million tons last year, thereby curtailing the chances to grow the textile industry.

 

On the other hand, the domestic demand for Chinese products will increase due to surge in consumerism. With rising per capita income, the Chinese are willing to spend and consume more thus luring the exporters to focus on servicing the domestic demand. Rising per capita income hints at the fact that people have higher disposable income indicating higher wage levels.

 

China's policy of controlling population for the past many years has resulted in a very skewed demographic structure.

 

It is expected that 23% of Chinese population will be over 65 years of age by 2020, putting tremendous pressure on the government spending on the older population and income generating population of the country. A fast ageing population and one child policy would cause wage inflation to rise at an even brisker pace than the average rise of 17% in the period 2000-2011.

 

The combination of above factors is expected to severely limit China's capability to grow this industry and meet the global textile and apparel demand. This constraint will provide an opportunity for other textile and apparel nations to grow and meet the global demand. It is estimated that Chinese textile and apparel industry has the potential to reach US$ 850 billion by 2020, it can only reach about US$ 800 billion leaving open a deficit of US$ 50 billion that can be met by other countries.

 

 

EVOLVING GLOBAL INDUSTRY STRUCTURE

 

The US$ 664 billion textile and apparel industry is undergoing some structural changes to sustain itself in this dynamic environment. Till few years back companies were focusing through inorganic growth to increase sales but in the face of increased competition, companies have now started to focus on growth through acquisitions and mergers. Inorganic growth enables companies to access new markets, enhance product portfolio, value chain integration in a shorter span of time.

 

In developed economies value retailers, who provide products that represent value for money proposition, have grown in the period 2005-10 by an average CAGR of 17% while brands have barely grown by an average CAGR of 2% in the same period. It is expected that going forward, the trend will grow stronger as consumers will rationalize their spending helping the growth of such value retailers at the expense of brands.

 

A relatively newer trend that has attracted the attention of retailers and brands is multi-channel retailing. It was earlier perceived that consumers need to touch and feel products before they purchase but off late online retailing has emerged very strongly. In fact few retailers have developed and invested in online retail to aid overall sales. Thus it is not surprising that apparel is among the top 3 online categories that is purchased in USA and western Europe.

 

In a bid to increase their overall sales brands and retailers are reaching out to international markets as these newer markets have relatively lesser competition and increasing appetite for international brands. These newer markets are typically located in developing countries.

 

Textile and apparel industry is an energy and labour intensive industry. The production processes of textile and apparel impacts the environment and puts pressure on the natural resources of Earth. Globally buyers are becoming aware of the impact of their decisions related to manufacturing of apparel and textiles. Buyers have tied up with contract manufacturers and have implemented regulations requiring manufacturers to reduce dependence on natural sources and reduce wastage during the production process. Brands and retailers have adopted global change programs and incorporated the philosophy of sustainable production. At the consumer level too, the change has initiated as demand for apparel produced using sustainable practices has started to increase.

 

 

INDIAN TEXTILE AND APPAREL INDUSTRY OUTLOOK

 

Indian textiles and apparel sector has an overwhelming presence in the economic life of the country. It plays a pivotal role in contribution to industrial output, export earnings and employment generation.

 

The Indian textiles industry is extremely diverse encompassing hand-spun and hand woven sector at one end of the spectrum, and capital intensive, sophisticated mill sector at the other. Decentralized power looms / hosiery and knitting sector form the largest section of the Sector. Indian textile industry has the capacity to produce a diverse range of products suitable to the different market segments, catering both domestic and exports markets. The major sub-sectors of India textile and apparel sector are cotton/man-made fibre textiles mill industry, man-made fibre / filament yarn industry, wool and woolen textiles industry, sericulture and silk textiles industry, handlooms, handicrafts, jute and jute textiles industry, and textiles exports.

 

Indian economy in 2011 has witnessed moderation in growth. Turbulent global conditions, falling value of rupee, rising inflation coupled with a weak industrial sector have emerged as challenges for India economy. However, despite these challenges favourable demographic conditions and rising income level will help to keep growth story of India's domestic demand for apparels intact.

 

 

INDIAN TEXTILE AND APPAREL MARKET

 

India's total textile and apparel industry size (domestic + exports) is estimated to be INR 4180000.000 Millions ($ 89 bn) in 2011 and is projected to grow at 9.5% CAGR to reach INR 950,000 (US$ 221 bn) by 2020.

 

Out of INR 4180000.000 Millions exports accounts for INR 1450000.000 Millions and domestic industry accounts for INR 2730000.000 Millions. Domestic textile and apparel industry comprises of apparel, home textiles and technical textiles.

 

The following factors will act as growth drivers for Indian domestic textile and apparel market:

 

·         India will add almost 140 million people in the consuming age group of 15-59 Years. Unlike any other top-10 economy (including China), India will have the lowest median age and the trend will be more distinctly pronounced by 2020 as average age of population of most other nations increases even more rapidly. India's population in the consuming age group of 15-59 years is more aspirational and aware. They have higher spending power and will consume more number of product categories than their parents. Increasing urbanization will also drive domestic demand in India.

·         During the last fifty years the population of India has grown more than two and half times, from a figure of 439 million in 1961 to 1210 million in 2011. But urban India has grown by nearly five times. By 2020, almost 35% of the Indian population will be living in the urban areas and urban population will be more than the combined population of the US, UK and Germany. Increase in urban population will drive consumption in urban India.

·         Literacy rate among the youth has already gone up by 25% in the last 20 years. As a consequence of better education these youths will get better jobs, and hence, will have a higher earning potential. Number of households with annual incomes of US $ 7000 and more is going to treble from about 30 million today to 100 million by 2020. There will be approximately 400 million individuals in the bracket of middle to high income group by 2020 and there will be around 70 million aspiring consumers who can afford and consume like a developed world's consumer.

·         As a result of increasing consumption, minimum order quantity of Indian domestic retailers will increase. Previously, extremely small order quantity was a deterring force for domestic textile and apparel players to focus on Indian market. However, increase in order quantity will make domestic fashion market lucrative for players presently targeting export opportunities.

·         With an anticipated US$ 50 billion fresh investment over next 10 years, organized retail will show impressive CAGR of more than 25% and will account for 25% of India's retail market by 2020. Organized apparel retail will derive momentum from fresh investments in retail.

·         Emergence of new economic Hot Spots - areas of high economic activity will open up enormous opportunities for fashion retail. Currently the top 8-10 cities contribute disproportionate share of the markets in most of the consumer goods categories including apparels. However, going ahead growth in India would be far more exclusive as the new hot spots of consumption (primarily driven by investments in these regions) appear on the map. With investments in mega projects and development of infrastructure India will see the emergence of around 350 Hot Spots in near future. These new centers of consumption would present an opportunity for apparel and fashion retail companies to focus on and derive growth from the consumption potential. Also, conventional model of modern retail will not be able to offer all formats or cater to all customer groups in these hotspots and new models like e-tailing will sprout in coming years.

 

 

BUSINESS PERFORMANCE

 

Alok Industries ('Alok' or 'the Company') is primarily a textiles and apparels major with offerings across the entire value chain. The strength of the Company's business is its integrated textiles operations, both in cotton as well as in polyester. While the Company has acquired some facilities in Europe (through wholly owned subsidiary Mileta, a Czech Republic based integrated textiles company), the core manufacturing facilities are based in India (Silvassa, Vapi, Navi-Mumbai and Bhiwandi). Utilising its cost competitive integrated production base, the Company caters to markets in India and across the world. The stand-alone financial result, which is the major part of the Company's consolidated results, reflects the performance of the Company's textiles operations out of India.

The company has also invested into some other businesses. This includes its foray into the textile and apparel retail business both in India and in the United Kingdom (UK). In India, its retail business is carried out through its subsidiaries under the store brand 'H and A', while it operates the 'Store Twenty One' outlets through its overseas subsidiary Grabal Alok (UK) Limited.

 

To explore the opportunities in real estate sector, the Company had entered the real estate business through its real estate subsidiary Alok Infrastructure Limited. However, the company has in-principle decided to exit the real estate business.

 

 

MERGER WITH GRABAL ALOK IMPEX

 

During the year, the Honourable High Court, Bombay, sanctioned the scheme of amalgamation between Alok Industries Limited and Grabal Alok Impex Limited with appointed date of 1 April 2011.

 

The merger has resulted into operational synergies between the two companies and consolidates all textile operations under one entity. The swap ratio for the merger was 1:1 as determined by Ernst and Young (for every one share of Grabal, one share of Alok was allotted). The fairness opinion on the valuation was provided by Fortune Financials Services (India) Limited.

 

Consequent to the merger, the company issued 22485000 equity shares of Rs. 10/ - each to the shareholders of Grabal Alok Impex Limited (of which 1900000 shares were issued to Alok Benefit Trust).

 

On amalgamation of the company with Grabal Alok Impex Limited., Grabal Alok (UK) Limited, an associate company of both companies, has now become a majority owned subsidiary of Alok Industries Limited.

 

Grabal Alok Impex Limited is in the business of manufacturing embroidered products and current year numbers of the company include sales of Rs.1609.600 Millions and Profit Before Tax of Rs.75.800 Millions of Grabal Alok Impex Limited and hence are not comparable with previous year.

 

 

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE (STAND ALONE)

 

During FY 2011-12, Alok Industries achieved growth of 39.33% in sales, 39.64% growth in operating earnings before interest, depreciation, tax and amortisation (Operating EBITDA) and 21.95% growth in operating Profit before tax (Operating PBT). Due to volatility and depreciation in the Indian rupee against the US Dollar, the Company had to provide 'marked to market' on its foreign exchange transactions amounting to Rs.1212.700 Millions, as extra-ordinary provisioning. Consequently, Profits after tax, stood at Rs.3805.300 Millions in 2011-12. In terms of regular operations, the performance in 2011-12 reflects the Company's continuous endeavour to utilise its increased capacities and capital investments towards higher growth. Table 6 gives a summary of Alok's financial performance, as a stand-alone entity.

 

 

TEXTILES BUSINESS: OPERATIONS REVIEW

 

The strategy adopted by Alok Industries Limited. in its core textile operations is focus on integration both in cotton as well as in polyester. It has a presence across the entire textiles and apparel value chain. The cotton integrated operations begins with sourcing of cotton and converting it into cotton yarn followed by fabric production through knitting and weaving operations. Bulk of its sales happens at fabric stage (called apparel fabrics) and some part of the fabrics gets converted into garments. On the integrated cotton business, it also manufactures bed sheets and towels in its home textile division.

 

On the polyester integrated business, its raw material is PTA (Purified Terephthalic Acid) / MEG (Mono-Ethylene Glycol) and its manufacturing operations starts with converting PTA / MEG into Chips / POY (Partially Oriented Yarn) through CP (Continuous Polymerisation). Its strategy in polyester business is to produce more of finished products like DTY (Draw Texturised Yarn), FDY (Fully Drawn Yarn), PSF (Polyester Stable Fibre) and Cationic yarn with thrust on exports.

 

 

COTTON YARN

 

Alok set up its cotton spinning facility as a measure of backward integration to captively feed its weaving and knitting facilities. Almost, 85 - 90% of its cotton yarn production is consumed internally. Alok also does trading in cotton / cotton yarn and sells part of its manufactured yarn based on opportunities available in the market. The reported sales data of this division only accounts for external sales of raw cotton and yarn.

 

 

OVERVIEW OF COTTON SPINNING DIVISION

 

Open end rotors (20,000 tons) to support in-house apparel fabric and home textiles segment Alok's 85%-90% cotton yarn manufactured is utilized for captive consumption by the apparel fabric (woven and knit fabrics) and home textiles divisions (Bed Sheets and Towels).

 

Sales made externally by cotton spinning business constituted about 3.62% of total revenue of the company in 2011-12

 

Procurement of raw cotton at right price and during harvest remains crucial; looking at the volatility in the prices of cotton in the recent past, the company is now holding inventory to the extent of 3-4 months requirements matching with its average sales order book which is also 3-4 months for apparel fabrics, home textiles and garments. Thus, it has in-built risk mitigation for cotton price fluctuation. Further, due to its integrated operations cotton constitutes about 27% - 28% of its fabric selling price, thus has limited impact on the overall operations

POLYESTER YARN

 

For Alok, polyester yarn is an important segment in its overall business and it has been steadily growing in terms of its contribution in the overall business. In polyester also, as a strategy, Alok is an integrated player. It procures PTA and MEG and converts the same into POY / Chips through Continuous Polymerization (CP) plant, which is further processed to make draw texturised yarn (DTY), fully drawn yarn (FDY), cationic yarn and polyester stable fibre (PSF).

 

What differentiates Alok in this segment is its focus on producing finished yarn. This positioning at the higher end of the polyester value chain enables the company to capture margins at each stage and make it more competitive and sustainable. To further consolidate its position in the industry and improve margins, it is also developing, its capability in higher value added products like master batch, technical textiles, etc.

 

Polyester Staple Fibre (PSF) and Partially Oriented Yarn (POY) demand is expected to grow at 7.5 % compounded average growth Rate (CAGR) over next 2 years, due to rising consumption of blended and non-cotton yarns. Demand is expected to grow to 8.5 % CAGR after 2012-13 due to limited availability of cotton and higher substitution by polyester. However, in the domestic market, there has been continuous increase in capacities which has made this business very competitive.

·         Demand scenario likely to remain good due to increasing substitution of natural fibres

·         Competition from Chinese manufacturers, large Indian peers and unorganised domestic texturisers; however Alok's large scale integrated operations and focus on finished products make it a sustainable player

·         Relatively moderate EBDITA margins due to commodity nature of business; volatility in raw material (MEG and PTA) prices may affect profitability margins if not passed through adequately;

·         The polyester commands higher ROCE of about 25%-26% due to higher asset turnover (about 2.25 times) and lower working capital intensity

 

 

FUTURE OUTLOOK

 

EXPECTED GROWTH IN GLOBAL TEXTILE TRADE

 

Global trade in textiles and clothing increased to US$ 602 bn in FY2010 from US$ 355 bn. in FY2000. Trade is expected to grow to US$ 1,000 bn in 2020 from US$ 602 bn in 201 Oat a CAGR of 5%.

 

·         Textile production has shifted from western countries to China and India and these countries have become production hubs

·         China is a leader in textile production with total industry size of USD 351 bn. (domestic USD 135 bn. And exports USD 216 bn.)

·         China's export of textile and clothing has increased from USD 28.3 bn. (13.3% of World trade) in 1990 to USD 216 bn. (35.9% of world trade) in 2010. It took over almost entire share that EU lost during this period

 

However, with the transition of Chinese economy to the world's second biggest economy, few challenges have come up which would restrict its further growth of market share. China is now facing issues relating to rising labour cost, power availability, rising domestic consumption, currency appreciation etc. These developments in China are an opportunity for India to cash on and gain market share even in difficult market conditions. As one of India's leading textiles players, Alok's growth is expected to be in line with that of the Indian Industry.

 

 

EXPECTED GROWTH IN INDIAN TEXTILE INDUSTRY

 

India's USD 78 Billion total Textile and Apparel industry has the potential to grow @ 11% CAGR to reach USD 220 Billion by 2020. The growth is expected from both export as well as domestic markets. The respective growth drivers in exports and domestic markets are given below:

 

 

EXPORT DEMAND DRIVERS:

 

·         Production Shift - Textile manufacturing continues to shift to low cost Asian countries

·         De-Risking from China - Overseas buyers are now looking at India as an alternative to de-risk their sourcing requirements from China

·         Advantage India - Availability of raw materials , especially cotton, integrated operations and design skills in India

 

 

DOMESTIC DEMAND DRIVERS:

Share of organised retailing to increase from about 5% currently to about 24% by FY 2020 Favourable demographic profile-The % of earning population (15-60 years) in the total population is rising and is around 60%.

 

 

STRATEGY FORMULATED BY ALOK INDUSTRIES LIMITED

 

Backed by the large scale integrated operations resulting in economies of scale and stable margins, wide products basket and diversified customer base, Company is optimistic about its prospects in 2012-13. Alok is well positioned to take up both challenges and opportunities in the present textile scenario. In the coming years, the company would focus on implementing following strategy to grow and generate higher returns for all its stakeholders:

 

Optimising the operations - Having set up the large integrated plants, the company would work on sweating all its assets and reducing cost.

 

Reduction in debt /equity and exiting non - core businesses - Company, would bring back its investments made in real estate by monetising them. The proceeds of the same would be used to retire debt at consolidated and standalone level. Moreover, Company is also contemplating equity infusion, which would improve its debt/ equity. It is also formulating strategies for its retail operations.

 

Improving the ROCE and Asset Turnover - With object of improving the overall ROCE of the company, it would be looking at increasing the asset turnover by concentrating on value added products on the cotton side and increasing the capacities on polyester side.

Notes:

 

1. Considering the high level of international operations and present internal financial reporting, the Company has identified geographical segment as its primary segment and business segment as its secondary segment. The company is operating in a single business segment i.e. Textile and as such all business activities revolve around the segment.

 

The geographical segment consists of domestic sales and export sales. Revenue directly attributable to segments is accordingly reported. Since the resources/services/assets are used interchangeably within these segments, it is not practical to allocate segment expenses, assets (except debtors) or liabilities contracted, to these segments. Accordingly, no disclosure relating to the same is made.

JAN 10, 2013

 

Textile company Alok Industries gained more than 2 percent intraday in early trade on Thursday on reports that the company may exit from retail business.
