BUSINESS RESULTS :

Due to unfavorable market condition and non remunerative realization your directors have decided to differ the commencement of manufacturing until required changes are implemented in the facilities so as to make it capable of producing garments more acceptable to the market and the operations viable as well. The management had envisaged revival in readymade garment business. Hence had identified machinery suppliers and obtained competitive quotes. As management was struggling to arrange finance from the financial institutions and bank market condition worsen during the period under consideration. Hence management chose to keep in abeyance ordering of machinery. The management expects revival in market condition in subsequent year and is planning to restart the operation.

STATUS OF BUSINESS OPERATION :

The company''s design-driven international business strategy has proved most challenging due to the economic situation in the EU, the UK and the US. It was further de-stabilised by the sharp forex fluctuation. The Rupee depreciation has been neutralised greatly, due to pressure from customers to lower USD prices, and by stubborn inflation. The company has met with some success in its business negotiations in its hitherto smaller markets, as well as entering some new markets, which show early promise. However the scale of committed business from buyers does not justify set up of the planned project. Rigorous efforts are underway to approach as many buyers as possible and being the Committed Business above critical mass.

CURENT MARKET SENARIOS & CHALLENGES :

The export of clothing from India (all fibres) declined during the financial year 2013 to USD 12.7 bn from USD 13.4 bn in the previous year, a decline of 5.5% in USD terms. However, in Rupee terms, the total exports were Rs.69,000 crore vs. Rs.64,341 crore the previous year, an increase of approximately 7% due to INR depreciation.

With the economic problems faced by the Euro Zone continuing, the serious decline in demand is of concern. In a futile attempt to induce volume growth, the retail prices offered to end consumers in the EU for like-tolike products (albeit of lower quality) have been reduced considerably, despite the brands and retailers enjoying healthier margins.

The demand situation in the US, although somewhat better than in the EU, continues to be weak. Consumer behaviour, prices and margins mirrored that of the EU. The margins have been made possible by exploiting the situation in Bangladesh and other countries who also have the benefit of lower tariffs, besides Government subsidies, as well as the enviable co- operation between Government and industry in these countries.

Despite Bangladesh enjoying preferential tariffs of "zero" duty in the EU, wages paid to the workers have been abysmally low, i.e. the equivalent of Rs. 2,000/- per month, for much longer working hours than those permitted in law-abiding countries like India, with human rights violations, non-enforcement of already-weak labour laws; working conditions there are hazardous, resulting in several widely-reported industrial accidents, one of which resulted in as many casualties as the Bhopal disaster.

Will the uproar generated globally endure- Consumer polls in the US and some European countries show a significant number of consumers there are checking the "country of origin" labels on clothing and refusing to buy Bangladeshi origin. The situation vis-a-vis competition is that China has had to perforce divert production of clothing for export because of its demographics, rising labour costs propelling available labour away from labour-intensive industries like clothing to higher value added industries – besides, China is also making a conscious effort to increase consumer demand within China, resulting in some production being diverted for consumption within China. However, they have diversified significant portions of their export production base offshore, to countries like Bangladesh, Myanmar, Vietnam and Cambodia.

The design-driven international business, notwithstanding lower volumes, increase in fabric prices during the second half of the year and higher depreciation, has remained profitable. There was a 10% increase in prices of cotton fabrics produced in India, in the second half. International fabric prices also, in Rupee terms, have been higher due to sharp depreciation of the Rupee. This has impacted profit margins of existing exporters, which have been exacerbated because of other factors as well.

The FTA with the EU which has been under discussion since 2007, has been in the final stages with just a few products continuing to be discussed, for nearly a year. There is also discussion on IPR, resulting from Indian Court judgements, which have adversely impacted the sentiment of large Pharma companies. Agreement has also to be reached in declaring India "Data Secure". Should the FTA be signed before elections in Germany and India, it would enable India to increase their exports to the EU, despite the weak market, and also to regain some of the market share lost to Bangladesh in the past.

Industry has aspired long for Government and the industry to work as a team in complete unison to achieve maximum competitive advantage for the nation. The industry looks to the Government to take the lead role in :- (a) fast track negotiation of favourable Trade Agreements (especially concretising EU before elections in India/Germany);

(b) helping eliminate the "export" of India''s taxes by virtue of an efficient mechanism to fully insulate and reimburse taxes of any type with a delivery system that eliminates delays;

(c) minor tweaking of labour laws;

(d) encouraging the export segment of the industry to diversify into the Indian market as well to enable them to build themselves into truly strong globally competitive players/brands;

(e) encouraging building of "Brand India", besides innovation and product development.

One also looks to the Government to review the Advance Licence /EODC system, which belong to a different era. In the past, several items of textiles were not permitted to be imported, and those that were, attracted rates of duty, which were much higher than they are today. Most of our competitor countries have a system where data is maintained of the value of fabric imported duty free and value of total clothing exports, with a separate reconciliation in value terms of exports (without claiming of Drawback) against duty free imports, which is submitted to the authorities periodically, and compulsorily squared up at the end of each financial year. The export obligation discharge certification is an extremely painful and time-consuming process, which requires an entire department working full time only on fulfilling this onerous/ unproductive task. A simple method, as is followed in competitor countries, is the need of the hour.

The Government has, consequent to the changes in the budget, re-constituted a high-powered Committee for reviewing the rate of duty drawback. The industry awaits the decision of this Committee with great anticipation as a step forward in combating the "export" of India''s taxes. The above steps would result in helping achieve higher unit realisation in some cases, and reduction in cost in all cases. They would sharpen India''s competitiveness considerably and enable us to gain substantial market share in new markets, as also in recapturing lost market share in the EU and the US when their economies stabilise – the US is already showing signs of improvement.

Textile industry is can definitely address the most serious problem the country is facing, i.e. the Current Account Deficit, besides creating gender sensitive employment, in compliance with prevalent Laws of the Land.
