INDIAN ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

India’s current account deficit for the fiscal third quarter ended September 2013 narrowed to $4.2 billion or 0.9 % of the gross domestic product from $31.9 billion or 6.5 % of GDP a year earlier, thanks to a pick-up in exports and moderation in gold imports. Manufacturing activity and new orders in India showed their strongest growth in a year in February. The news comes as a relief after data showed Asia’s third largest economy grew by a slower-than-expected 4.7 % annually in the three months through December. The HSBC Manufacturing Purchasing Managers’ Index which gauges the business activity of India’s factories but not its’ utilities, rose to 52.5 in February, its highest in a year from 51.4 in January. Overall new orders for factory goods which rose to a one-year high of 54.9 contributed to the surge. China has emerged as India’s biggest trading partner in the current financial year replacing the United Arab Emirates and pushing it to the third spot. India-China trade has reached $49.5 billion with a 8.7 % share in India’s total trade. The US comes second at $46 billion with 8.1 % share during the first nine months of the current financial year.

 

The Reserve Bank of India has granted an additional nine months to the public to exchange currency notes printed before 2005 including Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 denominations, pushing the deadline to January 1, 2015. A day before dates for the Lok Sabha polls were announced, the government decided to hike interest rates on fixed deposit schemes offered by post offices up to 0.2 per cent. The new rates will be effective April, 1. The Supreme Court will resume hearing on March, 11 Nokia’s appeal against a ruling over transferring ownership of its local mobile phones plant which is the subject of a tax dispute to Microsoft Corp.

 

In the last days of the current Government, another scam has surfaced. The defence ministry has ordered a probe into Hindustan Aeronautics Limited’s contracts from Britain’s Rolls-Royce Holdings worth at least $ 1.2 billion. The Central Bureau of Investigation will look into allegations that over $80 million was paid in kickbacks in a deal signed in 2011. India has asked Boeing Co. to find a solution for problems with state-owned Air India’s 787 Dreamliners. The aircraft has experienced a series of malfunctions since its debut in 2011.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

Industry Structure and Development

 

The Indian Textiles Industry has an overwhelming presence in the economic life of the country. Apart from providing one of the basic necessities of life, the textile industry also plays a vital role through its contribution to industrial output, employment generation, and the export earning of the country.

 

The textile sector contributes about 14 per cent to industrial production, 4 per cent to gross domestic product (GDP), and 17 per cent to the country’s export earnings. The Government of India has promoted a number of export promotion policies for the textile sector in the Union Budget 2011-12 and the Foreign Trade Policy 2009-14. This also includes the various incentives under the Focus Market Scheme and Focus Product Scheme; broad basing the coverage of Market Linked Focus Product Scheme for textile products and extension of Market Linked Focus Product Scheme etc. to increase the Indian Shares in the global trade of textiles and clothing.

 

Lahoti Overseas Limited is an ISO 9001:2008 certified Company and is mainly engaged in the export trading of cotton yarn in all coarser and fine counts, where the Company has strong presence and leadership. The Company is mainly targeting the export of cotton yarn to Far East Asian countries like South Korea, China, Japan, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Vietnam and also cater to Gulf, Meditarian, European, North and South American markets. The Company enjoys the excellent relationship with its overseas customers, which has been built over the years by strictly adhering to delivery schedules maintaining consistent quality and providing prompt after sales service.

 

Awards and Recognitions

 

• The Company has won the Gold, Silver and Bronze trophies consistently since 1997 from TEXPROCIL (Cotton Textile Export Promotion Council) for excellence in export of cotton yarn.

 

• The Company has won the prestigious “Niryat Shree” award from The Federation of Indian Export Organization (FIEO) for the year 2003- 2004. The Company also won Silver plaque from Government of Maharashtra for the year 1995-56, 1996-97 and Gold Plaque for the year 2009-2010.

 

• The Company has won the Business World International Business Award for Category – “Best Export House” for excellent performance in exports in the year 2010-11.

 

• The Company has received Second Award in Merchant Exporter Category and Third Award in Trading House Category from Government of Maharashtra for its export performance in the year 2010-11.

 

These awards recognised the efforts of the Company in the creation of path breaking trends and excellent export performance in cotton textile Industry.

 

 

Outlook

 

The long term objective of the Company is to remain strong player in the cotton textiles export market with strong emphasis on product and market development, value added yarns, customer services and Technology Up gradation. The Company is also continuously improving its operational efficiency, and cost control which alone can improve the bottom line in future in highly competitive environment. Further, the Company is hopeful to get advantage of the overall good times likely to come for the Indian Cotton Textile Industry and will do all out efforts to secure the bigger share of the increasing market in future.

 

A stable outlook on cotton and synthetic textiles would result from favourable policy environment, improvements in demand-supply position, continued stability in input costs and consequent improvement in margins/liquidity. It is unlikely that the sector’s outlook will turn positive until fundamental issues such as power shortage, lack of technology and modern machinery and demand slowdown are resolved. However, foreign direct investment in retail is an opportunity that would unleash demand in the long run and offset any slowdown in exports.

 

Cotton outlook could be revised to negative if input costs turn volatile, which could intensify inventory price risks, cash flows and liquidity. Given the sector’s high debt dependence for operational as well as capex needs, any volatility in EBITDA could lead to huge swings in leverage. The Company expects much better sales and profits for the F.Y. – 2013-14.

 

 

Financial and Operational Performance

 

During the year, the Company has recorded a total income of Rs. 5373.268 Millions, against Rs. 2352.526 Millions in the previous year, with the increase of 128.40% due to favorable government policies in Cotton yarn export and huge surge in China Market. Accordingly Net Profit before Taxation for the financial year ended March, 31, 2013 had also been increased to Rs. 164.017 Millions from Rs. 94.664 Millions with the increase of 73.26% in the previous year. However, the Profit after Tax increased from Rs. 69.678 Millions to Rs. 134.312 Millions an increase of 92.76%.

 

The ongoing cost reduction measures and efficient operational system implemented by the Company has resulted in better utilization of resources and funds of the Company.
