3. REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

In the year 2024-25, the global disturbances continued and we managed to finish the year at par turnover.
Indian textile exports grew marginally with improvement in imports from developed countries but was
nothing substantial and was still 15% below the peak touched in 2021-22.

Domestic demand continued to be flat and there has been a hit in winter demand, as winter season has
shortened and starts only from mid-December. The changing climatic cycles of late winter and hence late
summers is something the trade is yet to adjust. This is overall impacting demand, as buying confidence is
very low.

Overall industry was hit with relatively higher raw material prices vis-a-vis the world. Cotton was high due
to international prices falling below MSP and India not able to take advantage due to import duty. On the
other hand, QCO and import duty made low priced MMF fibre/yarn imports difficult and forcing industry to
buy from the monopolistic type Indian suppliers.

The company turnover was Rs. 21443.15 lakhs and profit after tax at Rs 409.91 Lakhs in 2024-25. Despite
global headwinds, flat domestic demand and supply chain disruptions due to sale of Gajroula factory, the
Company managed to maintain turnover and increase net profit.

This year was very significant for the company as many important milestones were achieved:

• The completion of the post COVID restructuring to exit spinning and reduce debt. The sale transaction
of its Gajroula unit was completed during the year leading to reduction of total debt significantly from

Rs 12889.62 Lakhs in FY 2023-24 to Rs 8925.85 Lakhs in FY 2024-25. This sale did not impact supply
chain of the Company; it could maintain its turnover despite sale of this unit.

• The near completion of garmenting unit in Howrah, West Bengal (leading knitwear cluster of India)
that is expected to start commercial production in Q2 to support the aggressive growth plans of the
Company

• T.T. Brand for the first time signed a Bollywood star as its brand ambassador - Rajkumar Rao was
signed in February 2025 and advertisement has started from April 2025.

• The next Gen has also formally joined the Company as Executive Director at a young age of 22 and is
leading the Company''s new advertisement campaign and AI initiatives.

The Company has also reworked its dependence on cotton fiber and has shifted more of its fabric and
garments to cotton/manmade fiber blends to reduce the risk of its business due to cotton volatility. All new
product development is around blends and performance fibers/yarns. The recent surge in cotton prices
and consumer resistance to paying a higher price has sent a clear signal that India is still a price-conscious
market especially in tier 2 and tier 3 towns and the budget for clothing is constrained due to lifestyle
changes. The Company established its sourcing office in Surat, and has started sourcing manmade fibre-
based fabric.

The continuous use of digitalization in life is also an important signal that the Company needs to connect
more digitally with its distributors, retailers, and customers. The Company is continuously working on the
same and recognises the importance to embrace technological changes sooner than later.

4. FUTURE OUTLOOK

Exciting times are ahead for the industry, as UK FTA has finally been signed and the tariffs imposed by USA
are expected to create an advantage for India against its competitors especially China. Further since end of
last year, garment exports have started up picking due to buyers looking for alternatives to Bangladesh and
all major global buyers stepping up their buying as pipeline inventories fall.

The Company plans to clearly focus on the value-added innerwear and casualwear segment both in domestic
brand (under its brands T.T. and HiFlyer) and in exports to capitalize on the tremendous opportunity for
India in exports.

T.T.Brand has for the first time signed a Bollywood superstar Rajkummar Rao (lead hero in blockbuster film
Stree2) as its brand ambassador and has introduced multiple new products for summer 2025 and plans new
launches for winter 2025 too.

To capitalize the opportunities in market, the Company''s new unit in Howrah West Bengal is ready and is
expected to start production from July 2025 and be in full production by Q3 end. Further the Company is
planning to upgrade its machinery in the Avinashi Tamil Nadu unit in this year.

The Company plans to raise further equity funds through rights issue in Q2 of this year for working capital,
branding and upgradation of Avinashi factory.

The Company also plans to strengthen its Surat operations recognizing the strong changing importance of
blends and 100% Manmade fibers in the domestic casual wear market and slowly expected to perpetuate
to the export market.

New product development is all based on MMF performance fibers, better processing finishes, and enhanced
consumer experience. However, all products would be keeping the basic principle of delivering value for
money to the consumer and will not be reaching out to a small percentage of premium / elite consumers.
Dependence on cotton fiber is being slowly but steadily reduced especially in its casual wear range by using
alternative fibers and finishes to ensure the consumer experience is not compromised in any fashion.

The good news is that raw material prices are stable and company capacity utilisation is expected to pick up
with consolidation of operations.

The Company would be using B2C and B2B E-commerce channels to foray into the weaker markets, by
leveraging the existing network of these channels to ensure quicker and deeper penetration at a lower cost.

Advertisement policy is very clear and would focus only on its strong markets by doing Point of Sales
publicity and using social media for targeting strong markets. Electronic and print media will be used
sparingly to build brand value in the weaker markets.

The Company in the last few years has gone through a bad phase due to various headwinds but luckily it is
emerging with a stronger character and poise to build its growing knitted casual and active wear portfolio
for all genders that have seen very good traction and demand. It sees a strong story of consumption and
exports unfolding.

The most important change is the improved risk profile of the business, hence less volatility in earnings
will be there and a more consistent growth trajectory can be expected. The restructuring exercise to reduce
debt and business risk profile is complete and the Company starts again to revive its old glory, turnover and
profits.

3. REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

The year 2023-24, the global disturbances grew with the Israel-Palestine conflict leading to spurt in export freight rates and continued global slowdown. Cotton prices further went down and touch the MSP levels in the beginning of the season due to slow demand across the globe. The Company turnover was just maintained with a lot of struggle to maintain market share. Greenshoots in demand were seen in Q4, however nothing sustained despite pipeline inventory reducing as every player tried to keep inventory in tight control due to still falling prices and muted demand. The fall in Indian textile exports that touched USD 44 billion in 2021-22 to USD 34 billion in 2023-24 reflects the poor state of global demand.

Domestic demand continued to be flat and there has been a hit in winter demand, as winter season has shortened and starts only from mid December. The changing climatic cycles of late winter and hence late summers is something the trade is yet to adjust its buying cycles. This is overall impacting demand, as buying confidence is very low.

The company turnover was Rs. 212 crores and profit after tax at Rs 4.63 crores in 2023-24 and despite severe global headwinds the Company managed to turnaround and book a profit.

The important event has been the 3 year restructuring process being completed finally in May 2023 with the hiving off of the Gajroula unit that was setup for spinning but later converted to garments. However due to being away from the garment cluster the unit could not be run to full capacity and hence the Company

need to hive off to release capital, reduce debt and make funds available for brand growth.

Further construction of new factory in West Bengal has started from January 2024 and part operations are expected to start from December 2024 though full completion would commence by July 2025. Howrah in West Bengal is one of the largest knitting clusters of the country.

The hiving off of Gajroula, would not impact running operations at all. It would however lead to substantial savings of interest, overheads and managerial time. Alternate warehousing and production arrangements have been planned from its Avinashi unit (in Tirupur cluster) that would ensure that due to Gajroula, the Company does not suffer from any supply concerns. The process of unwinding of operations in Gajroula started from July 2023 to ensure the impact is minimal when the unit is handed over to the new buyers. This lead to extra overhead burden on Company for 9 months as utilization of Gajroula was minimized over time while fixed costs remained the same.

It is pertinent to note that Company debt reduction exercise since post COVID continued and in 2023-24 the debt levels came down by Rs 17.48 crores however the interest burden could not reduce due to higher interest rates.

The Company has also reworked its dependence on cotton fiber and has shifted more of its fabric and garments to cotton/manmade fiber blends to reduce the risk of its business due to cotton volatility. All new product development is around blends and performance fibers/yarns. The recent surge in cotton prices and consumer resistance to paying a higher price has sent a clear signal that India is still a price-conscious market especially in tier 2 and tier 3 towns and the budget for clothing is constrained due to lifestyle changes. The Company established its sourcing office in Surat, and has started sourcing manmade fibre based fabric.

The continuous use of digitalization in life is also an important signal that the Company needs to connect more digitally with its distributors, retailers, and customers. The Company is continuously working on the same and recognises the importance to embrace technological changes sooner than later.

4. FUTURE OUTLOOK

As shared above, the headwinds still remain for the Textile Industry despite India as a country doing well in terms of GDP and GST growth. However as hardly any scope for raw material prices to go southwards, hence we expect that there will stability in prices.

The global conflicts would be a critical thing in export demand on which the entire industry is banking on. Definitely exports are expected to be better as pipeline inventory is surely at a very low level though trade confidence to buy and stock still has not returned either doemstically or globally.

The UK FTA is expected within this year and that would be a big push to export demand of apparels. EU FTA is still seems 18-24 months away.

The most critical changes that we shall see, would be more inward in the Company. Debt levels in April & May have reduced by 40% and would reduce the interest bill by an estimated Rs 6 crores per annum due to selling of the Company''s Gajroula unit and shifting all manufacturing operations to Tamil Nadu and West Bengal.

Further the overheads of the Company would reduce as operations would run normally without Gajroula where huge cost was borne by way of operational overheads and interest. Production would be consolidated in Tamil Nadu and West Bengal.

The Company also plans to strengthen it''s Surat operations recognising the strong changing importance of blends and 100% Manmade fibers in the domestic casual wear market and slowly expected to perpetuate to the export market.

New product development is all based on MMF performance fibers, better processing finishes, and enhanced consumer experience. However, all products would be keeping the basic principle of delivering value for money to the consumer and will not be reaching out to a small percentage of premium / elite consumers. Dependence on cotton fiber is being slowly but steadily reduced especially in its casual wear range by using alternative fibers and finishes to ensure the consumer experience is not compromised in any fashion.

The good news is that raw material prices are stable and company capacity utilisation is expected to pick up with consolidation of operations. The company''s clear focus is on its branded garment sales of TT & HiFlyer apart from the value-added fabric segment. A lot of emphasis is being put on new value-added products. Things have been extremely slow over the last 2 years, however, the Company is fully confident that things are going to pick up and will see a sharp uptick in demand in the 2nd half of the year and the Indian consumption story is intact. Textiles has seen the longest ever sustained slowdown in global demand, and with pipeline inventory at abysmal levels.

The Company would be using B2C and B2B E-commerce channels to foray into the weaker markets, by leveraging the existing network of these channels to ensure quicker and deeper penetration at a lower cost.

Advertisement policy is very clear and would focus only on its strong markets by doing Point of Sales publicity and using social media for targeting strong markets.

The Company in the last few years has gone through a bad phase due to various headwinds but luckily it is emerging with a stronger character and poise to build its growing knitted casual and active wear portfolio for all genders that have seen very good traction and demand. It sees a strong story of consumption and exports unfolding.

The most important change is the improved risk profile of the business, hence less volatility in earnings will be there and a more consistent growth trajectory can be expected. The restructuring exercise to reduce debt and business risk profile is complete and the Company starts again to revive its old glory, turnover and profits.

3. REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

The troubles continued in the economy, with almost 6 months of domestic market disturbance due to implementation of GST. Distributors and retailers started de-stocking before GST and the slowness continued for a few months post GST. Yarn, fabric and garments were all badly affected, leading to a drastic fall in sales.

The export market got weakened due to Rupee moving from 68 levels to 64 levels, making us uncompetitive. Overall Indian exports for the industry fell by 4%.ln 2017-18.

The Company decided to go in for re-structuring of its textile business portfolio. It decided to reduce its dependence on the low margin, high beta yarn business and shift more towards the value added and stable branded garments business.

The Company sold about 50% of its total spinning capacity and decided to install in Uttar Pradesh, Tamil Nadu and West Bengal garment manufacturing capacity taking advantage of the Central ATUF Incentive Policy and the respective State Government Textile Policies.

All the above factors have lead to a fall in turnover to Rs 500 Crores, despite an increase in garment turnover. The above factors, also lead to losses in the first two quarters though the Company managed to stay in the black in the last two quarters.

The business restructuring has also enabled the Company to reduce its long term debt from Rs 186 crores to Rs 151 crores during the year.

We are also happy to announce that the Company received the Award of "Most Desirable 30 Power Brands", which affirms the strength of its brand TT which will spearhead the growth in the coming times.

In nutshell it''s a year best forgotten for financials, but is a landmark in terms of a clear policy change, which has already starting showing small fruits.

4. FUTURE OUTLOOK

As we enter the New Year we start with optimism. The demonetization & GST impact is bygone and GST seems a reality that would improve our competitiveness against the large unorganized garment segment. We are already seeing positive impact of the same and growth in garments despite a 6 month GST impacted demand.

The INR has depreciated by about 4% from the highs giving us a competitive edge once again in exports.

The Company no more carries the baggage of old uncompetitive spinning machinery. The land and building will be used for value added, high margin garments.

The Company is seeing good response to its casual wear range. It has launched its new range under a new brand -" HiFlyers" which has helped breakfree from the perception of being an innerwear brand.

The Company Exclusive Brand Outlet (EBO) chains by the name of "T T BAZAAR" to build direct connect with the consumer is getting good response. 50 TT Bazaar franchisee stores are running and many more are in the pipeline. Company proposes to take it to 200 in the next 12 months.

New garment factory in Gajroula is expected to start sometime during quarter 2, while Kolkata will start in near future. The up gradation of Avinashi factory also should be completed sometime in quarter Q2.

We therefore start with lot of hope and optimism of achieving new heights and taking the brand and company to new levels. We are more focused on the value added segment and domestic sales which will de-risk the business and bring in more stability to turnover and margins. We are confident of growing our brand in the garment segment and gaining market share in the years to come.

We have gone through a bad phase, but luckily have emerged stronger and wiser which will hold us in good stead in the days to come.

3. REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

The year 2015-16 was one of the most difficult years. There was a clear mismatch in demand supply across the textile chain that lead to a very difficult scenario. Unlike 2008-09 and 2011-12 where fall in prices lead to slow down, here despite range bound cotton fibre prices, yarn and fabric prices slided down due to poor demand. The flat consumer demand for garments in India also provided no relief as brands struggled to maintain market share by aggressive promotions that hurt the bottom line.

There has been a lot of talk of Indian consumerism, however things are still yet to translate for the textile industry. The poor monsoons, weak rural demand, overall poor consumer sentiments lead to a poor consumer demand in India, which impacted demand across the chain. The slow and uncertain global economy could give no relief.

Internationally slowing down of China lead to poor cotton yarn off take and put pressure on mills to reduce prices to offload goods and for most part of the year had to sell below breakeven levels. Further the Central Government has totally withdrawn all incentives for yarn, and restricted it to the value added products which has further aggravated the spinning industry problems.

The Company restructured its wind mill portfolio by offloading its Tamil Nadu windmills which were suffering due to poor evacuation by the local electricity board and replaced it by a wind turbine in Gujarat with much better potential and more gains due to higher rates in the State.

However the silver lining has been the growth in volumes in all its business segments by 10 to 15%. The turnover moved marginally due to fall in prices from Rs.666 Crores to Rs.680 crores however we were able to make headway in a flat and slow market. This is expected to reap good fruits as margins improve in the coming year.

4. FUTURE OUTLOOK

As we enter the New Year we start with a lot of optimism. Global Growth is picking up and India has most probably seen its bottom. Textile and clothing demand is expected to pick up and the Company is well poised to take advantages of it. Green shoots are already visible as we have started the year with better demand and prices have moved by 5% and are still strong.

Company has no major expansion plans for 2016-17. It only proposes to do some balancing and modernization to improve margins. The Company wants to consolidate and reduce its leveraging to create a strong base for picking up new growth ideas for 2017-18.

With growth picking up domestically and inflation settling down, we expect consumers'' demand to grow at a globe pace. The biggest hope is the expected good monsoons, which would give us a good cotton crop and kick start rural demand.

The Company''s main focus this year is going to be its value added garments division, where many new products are being added and new markets / channels are being activated. Its new slogan - "Ache Lage, Ache Dikhe" has made a buzz in the market and has created a direct contact with consumer. Online sales and sales to institutional and large retail format customers is also growing. The Company is seeing good response to its casual wear range, which is helping it get out of the innerwear perception.

Another positive is the falling interest rate regime. This coupled with the repayment of debt would reduce the Company''s interest burden and improve profitability.

We don''t plan any expansion in yarn business, however we are focusing on better realisations/margins by selling more in domestic market and producing value added yarns like slub, compact and organic.

We therefore start with lot of hope and optimism of achieving new heights and taking the brand and company to new levels. We are more focused on the value added segment and domestic sales which will de-risk the business and bring in more stability to turnover and margins. We are confident of growing our brand in the garment segment and gaining market share in the years to come.

The market has turned the bottom of the curve and is slowly moving ahead. The worst is behind us, as we work towards a better future.

DIVIDENDS

Your Board recommend dividend @10% (Rs.1/- Per Share of the Face Value of Rs.10/- each) on the paid up Share Capital of the Company for the year ended 31st March, 2014.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

The year 2013-14 was a year of ups and downs. We started the year on a low note with poor demand and a not so rosy future. However keeping up the trend of volatility, everything changed from May end and we saw the currency depreciating in a matter of 3 months by more than 20%. India suddenly became very competitive and exports increased steeply. Cotton prices also went up steeply and then fell back again as the currency retraced and the new cotton season ushered in.

The depreciation of rupee was a big boost to the exports, However the volatility in cotton/currency and withdrawal of FMS scheme by Government were a set back which impacted profitability. However the Company was able to increase its exports by about 82% .Your Company has earned a PAT of Rs.8.99 Crores against a profit of Rs.6.55 crores in the last year. The turnover of the Company also went up by 48% to Rs.744 Crores. Operating EBITDA (before other income) is Rs.62.12 Crores as against Rs.53.31 Crores last year.

The year could have been much better but for the low economic growth and high inflation domestically. Domestic sales were very slow as consumption was hit by inflation and a pessimism in the economy.

Your Company started commercial production of its new spinning project in Rajula, Gujarat. This project is expected to be the most profitable segment of the Company due to its locational advantage and Government incentives. During the year, capacity utilization was low due to non-availability of adequate labour. The Company could achieve 80% plus utilization first time in the last quarter only.

Your Company is in the process of identifying assets for disposal to improve liquidity and reduce its leverage.

FUTURE OUTLOOK

As we enter the new year we start with a lot of optimism. Global growth is picking up and India has most probably seen its bottom. Textile and clothing demand is expected to pick up and the Company is well poised to take advantage of it. It has completed all its expansion projects and has no new plans for 2014-15. The Company wants to consolidate and reduce its leveraging to create a strong base for picking up new growth ideas for 2015-16.

The new Central Government led by Shri Narendra Ji Modi has been established with this hope of industrial and economic revival has risen Rapidity in economic growth is certainly expected.

Its jewel in the crown, Rajula new spinning unit is now fully stabilised and the Company is expecting 90% utilization in the coming year.

Further with growth picking up domestically and inflation settling down, we expect consumer demand to grow at a good pace. Last year the value added garments division could just manage 10% growth, however this year we look to growth at 25% to 30%.

However there are two threats which could impact the Company i.e. Currency appreciating lower than rupees a dollar 60 and the Chinese reducing their local cotton prices too much. Such macro economic factors change so fast, that it is difficult to predict anything – however these two factors may impact yarn exports. The Company has started focusing more on domestic markets for its yarn sales. The Company targets to sell domestically all yarn produced in two spinning mills located at Gajroula and Avinashi in the local markets.

Gujarat mills due to their location, would always enjoy a costing edge in exports over its peers in other parts of the country.

The above average growth in your company turnover last year, has made the Company project a growth of 15% for the current year. The Company targets to reach Rs 1000 crore in the next 2 years. Profit margins would also improve in the coming years.

We start the current year with a lot of hope and optimism of achieving new heights and taking the brand and the company to new levels. The much talked about consumption boom is expected to kick off very soon and we are well poised to take advantage of it. This would also reduce the dependence on exports and de-risk the company from vagaries of exports.

Last but not the least, Company has framed a CSR policy in line with the newly introduced Companies Act, 2013. Also other changes as required by the Act are being undertaken and we re-affirm our commitment to the best level of good corporate governance.

MAJOR IMPLICATIONS UNDER COMPANIES ACT, 2013

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

In 2012-13 the Company has managed to turn around and stabilize despite the slow global and Indian economy. The Company earned a PAT of Rs.6.55 Crores against a loss of Rs 2.17 crores in the last year. The turnover of the Company also went up by 28% to Rs. 503 crores. More important the operating EBITDA (before other income) is Rs.52.92 crores as against Rs.18.80 Crores last year.

The Company managed this turn around despite poor domestic and global conditions, due to aggressive marketing of yarn in China, strong marketing push of its branded knitwear in the domestic market/ Middle East and product expansion in the value added knitwear segment. It was supported by the range bound cotton prices for most of the year. It can proudly claim that its products have reached 62 countries spanning 5 continents and the Company continuously strives to expand markets both in terms of width and volume.

The Company has completed all its ongoing expansion projects. The new 25200 spindles spinning mill in Rajula, Gujarat has been completed in April, 2013 and has just started Commercial production. This unit would be able to avail of the various incentives provided in recently announced Gujarat Textile Policy, 2012. Apart from benefits of electricity rebate, VAT exemption, the biggest benefit would be the 7% interest subsidy, which the project would enjoy for the next 5 years (over and above the 4% interest subsidy under TUF). This unit buoyed with the attractive policy of Gujarat and the locational advantage (next to cotton growing areas and port) is expected to be the most profitable unit of the company.

The Company is facing higher energy costs due to the increase in power tariffs and hike in diesel prices. In order to moderate the impact, the Company has started buying power from IEX and 3rd party producers wherever possible. This lead to some moderation in the ever increasing energy costs. The Company is also going for state of the art automation systems to reduce labour requirement due to increasing wage levels and more important the difficulty in labour availability across the year.

Over the last few years, the Company has been working towards improving its contribution of domestic sales and also the % of value added branded knitwear business. The % of domestic sales has increased to 45% from 20% a few years back. Similarly the % of knitwear segment has gone up to 20% from 10% a few years back. We hope to improve these % to 50 and 25 respectively in the coming 2 years.

In order to strengthen its branded value added domestic business, the company has adopted a new slogan – " Zindagi is Good" to align itself with the changing consumer preferences. It has also introduced and expanded its range of products for men, woman and kids. The Company has almost doubled its advertisement budget this year in its efforts to reach out to the masses. It has also launched online shopping and stepped up its expenditure on digital marketing.

The Company is going slow on fresh capital projects as though operations are stable at the moment, the environment still is uncertain. Volatility is still there on the raw material and currency front, hence focus is on the relatively stable, low capital intensive value added segment. The removal of excise duty on garments in the Budget 2013 has further improved the prospects of growth and margin expansion in this segment.

FUTURE OUTLOOK

The worst is over and the company has managed to cover up the set back of 2011-12. The depreciating rupee, reasonable cotton prices have created a favourable situation for cotton yarn. Further the expected good monsoons, lower inflation and the removal of excise bodes well for the domestic garments demand. However with global growth still muted, political uncertainty and volatility in all areas – its difficult to predict precisely how well the Company would do in 2013-14. However we are confident that it would be better than the last year.

The start of the new spinning mill in Rajula, Gujarat should bring substantial profits to the Company due to the favourable yarn market and the interest subsidy of 11% due to the TUF scheme of Central Government and Gujarat Textile Policy. Further power costs have moderated for Gujarat operations, with the Company being able to purchase power from IEX and 3rd party producers of wind power.

The Company plans to continue strongly leveraging its high brand equity and expand markets and products with strong designing, advertisement and merchandising efforts. It expects a growth of 25% for its branded knitwear segment and margin expansion is also expected. The Company sees immense potential in the new distribution channels like institutional selling, e-commerce and is focusing and investing in these channels in a big way.

The yarn and fabric segments are expected to grow at 20% per annum and also margins are expected to be much better than last year.

We are confident that your Company will perform better in all segments of the business. Our emphasis on high margin business and focus on stable business portfolio can be expected to show positive results for the Company and its stake holders. In our effort to exit the volatile commodity business, the Company seeks to sell its cotton ginning unit in Gujarat in the ensuing year.

Your Company intends to install Solar Power Plants offline for localized captive consumption within each Spinning Mills. We hope by 2016 all our mills and manufacturing units will be running 100% on clean Solar / Wind Power energy. This move is to promote eco- sustainability and will certainly be our bit of efforts to "save earth". Our operations in Tamil Nadu already have 100% captive wind power. The Company is also focusing on environmental friendly yarns like organic, BCI, Fair Trade certified.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

The year 2011-12 was one of the most difficult year not only for the Company but worldwide textile industry and in many ways even worse than 2008-09. Cotton and yarn prices after touching an all time high in March 2011, suddenly crashed worldwide by over 35% in a short period of two months leaving the whole industry dazed.

This followed by uncertainty in the global market due to European crisis and the imposition of excise duty on garments lead to exceptionally difficult year for all segments of the textile business.

The extreme volatility in the currency in the second half of the year further worsened matters. Last but not the least Policies changes regarding exports of raw cotton and yarn, and reduction of export incentives remained the biggest culprit for the extreme volatility in global textile market.

The year saw the turnover of the Company plunge from Rs.485 Crores to Rs. 382 Crores i.e. a 21% fall due to poor demand and basic selling prices coming down. Due to the reasons mentioned above, the Company booked a loss of Rs.2.17 crores after taxes.

Over the last 2 years, your company has been paying more emphasis on its branded knitwear business. The contribution of this segment increased to 20% of turnover compared to 17% last year. This was despite the fact that due to excise, we lost almost 3 months sales. The turnover of all other divisions reduced due to both lower volumes and prices..

As a part of its strategy to slowly exit the cotton fibre business, the Company sold its ginning factory at Gondal, Gujarat for Rs.18.75 crores. The Company also plans to sell its ginning factory at Rajula, Gujarat and exit the volatile cotton commodity business fully and focus on the stable value added business. This crop year, Rajula Ginning Factory was not operated, otherwise it would have further worsened the scenario.

The Company has almost completed its Rs 20 crore garment expansion project in Avinashi. Further it has introduced many new products in its casual wear segment.

This year has broadly been a year of caution and fire fighting. It was difficult to implement new initiatives and push for growth.

Losses during the year has occurred mainly due to worldwide fall in cotton value chain since April, 2011, currency volatilities, increase in interest rates, Power rates and withdrawal of export subsidies and increase in taxes.

FUTURE OUTLOOK

The worst is almost over and the company is expected to cover up the set back in the first half of the current year itself. The depreciating rupee, falling cotton prices with low production of yarn across the country due to labour & power issues has created a favourable situation for cotton yarn. However with the global uncertainty so high, non clarity of Government policies - its difficult to predict precisely. We hope for the best.

The Government TUF scheme for textiles has expired in March 2012, and all are waiting for the new policy announcement. However the Company has no major expansion plans for this year, though the Rs 100 crore spinning expansion project at Rajula (Gujarat) is going on and is expected to be completed by March 2013. TUF sanctions for this project had already been confirmed in time.

The Company during the preceding year, due to slow demand and excise issues, had to go slow on its knitwear business. However this year once again the Company is looking for 50% growth in this segment. It is planning to go for a totally new ad campaign and put extra thrust on electronic and press media. The Company is also planning to focus on setting up exclusive shops in a big way, e-commerce and digital marketing through social media.

The Company plans to leverage its strong brand equity and expand over markets and products with strong designing, advertisement and merchandising.

The yarn and fabric segments are expected to grow at 20% per annum, however margins are expected to be much better than last year.

We are confident that your Company will be back on the growth path after a watershed year. Our emphasis on high margin business and focus on stable business portfolio can be expected to show positive results for the Company and its stake holders.

Your Company intends to install Solar Power Plants offline for localized captive consumption within each Spinning Mills. We hope by 2016 all our mills and manufacturing units will be running 100% on clean Solar / Wind Power. This move is to promote eco-sustainability and will certainly be our bit of efforts to "save earth" and to "save trees"

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

The year 2010-11 was the best year ever for your company. Its turnover grew from Rs.354 crore to Rs.487 crore i.e. a 38 % increase. Its profit before deferred taxes went up by 297%. Your company was able to use its strengths to leverage the turn round in the global economy and make the most of it. There was an unprecedented rise in raw cotton prices due to a demand-supply mismatch arising from crop failures in Pakistan/China, which had a cascading impact on the entire textile chain. The integrated nature of the company made it benefit from the same and post an all time high net profit of Rs.15.79 crores.

Your company has shifted emphasis in this year and will keep doing so, in future as well, from commodity based Fibre to more value added segments of the textile chain. In line with having a more balanced and stable product portfolio and a balanced market between domestic and exports - the Company has entered into an agreement to sell its ginning/oil undertaking in Gondal, Gujarat for Rs 18.75 crores and invest Rs 150 crores into yarn, fabric and garments Production. It also plans to sell its other ginning factory based in Rajula to exit the volatile commodity type cotton fibre business in total and focus on more stable value added business.

The Company has increased turnover of its knitwear segment by 50% this year despite the very difficult situation in the market due to all time high rise in yarn prices resulting in lower to flat growth rates in consumption. The Company doubled its advertisement budget and introduced many new products in the kids and ladies segment of inner and casual wear. It also launched online shopping through its website www.ttgarments.com.

The major steps taken by the Company in this year were:

- Greater emphasis on domestic sales both in absolute terms and as a percentage of total turnover.

- More focus on value added products like innerwear and casual wear.

- Brand building through electronic and print media to give boost to domestic sales.

- Reduced exposure to commodity business like raw cotton fibre

- Increasing internal capacity of fabric and other backward integrated segments to realize higher added value.

- Setting up exclusive “T T” shops to come closer to the final consumer and establish presence in the growing retailing business.

- Introduction of new, value added products by entering the premium segment of garments under brand name “COCO TREE” and organic products viz. “Green range”.

- Tying up with all the major organized retail chains to establish presence in the fastest growing distribution channel.

- Introduced value added yarn like Organic and Recycled products. Your company is also in the process of getting Fair Trade Registration.

All these measures has made the Company achieve highest ever profitability and profit in both absolute and percentage terms.

The Company would have performed much better, but was inhibited due to sudden changes in Government policies. The Government suspended exports of yarn from December 1, 2010 to March 15, 2011 leading to a significant loss in export revenues. Export incentives were also removed on yarn during the year leading to lower margins. Further in March 2011 the Govt imposed excise duty on garments leading to loss of sales for March 2011 for that segment. However despite the above issues, the company was able to perform well.

It also completed the implementation of its ERP system. This marked a significant step towards more efficient system and internal controls of sales, purchases, inventory and finances.

FUTURE OUTLOOK

Cotton and yarn prices reached an all time high in a very short period. This has lead to shifting in demand to other fibres and also price elasticity of demand has come into play. The first quarter is going to be challenging as there is an expected correction in prices due to the Projected bumper crop of cotton in 2011-12 and slow down in demand due to high prices. Your company has brought down its inventory levels and is moving slowly and with due caution till things stabilise in the coming days

The strength of India as a country is growing in the global textiles world in the cotton segment. After a stagnant first quarter, high growth rates are expected as consumption picks up once prices settle down and consumers come back to the market to spruce up the dwindled pipeline inventory.

The Government had suspended the Textile Upgradation Fund (TUF) in May 2010, and reinstated the same in April 2011. This scheme is operative till March 2012. Your Company has chalked out a Rs 150 crore expansion plan to take advantage of the scheme. It is investing Rs 25 crore in a garment manufacture unit in Tirupur, Rs 100 crore in spinning facility in Rajula, Gujarat and Rs 15 crore in a PP yarn facility in Gajroula, UP and the balance Rs 10 crore for modernisation of existing facilities.

Your company also plans to double its advertisement budget in the coming year . It will leverage brand strenght and focus on more value added products in its knitwear category to capitalise on the booming domestic demand.

We are confident that your Company is set to achieve new heights. We are glad that the management's policy of dynamic adaptability has paid dividends and set the path of strong and fast growth. Our emphasis on high margin business and focus on stable business portfolio can be expected to show positive results for the Company and its stake holders.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

The year 2009-10 has shown the strength of the Indian economy. Despite severe economic crisis globally, the Indian economy was able to shrug off the same and has been able to come out of woods. Rise in domestic demand in emerging economies like Chinese and Indian and other BRIC economies has pulled the world out of recession. Global uncertainty is still very high, and is expected to stay so for the next year or so. However, your Company has been able to adjust itself and come out of the recession with flying colours.
