previous year. There was a Cash loss to the tune of Rs. 115.84 Lakhs as against Cash Loss of Rs.
256.99 Lakhs before interest & depreciation in the previous year.

BUSINESS/FUTURE OUTLOOK:

Company encountered many challenges during the year under review like: economic sluggishness
that affected consumer sentiment; suspension of work due to labour unrest; the relatively low scale

of operations made it difficult to cover overheads, interest and depreciation. The Central
Government implemented the GST in July 2017. Even as the implementation of GST was perhaps the
most significant taxation reform in the history of independent India, the resultant teething issues
impacted the textile sector unfavorably initially. Besides, synthetic yarn was earlier subject to a
countervailing duty. Moreover, due to continuous pandemic of Covid-19 growth of the textiles
sector has been deeply affected due to fall in global as well as local demand of products. Work at
Company''s plant at Raipur remains suspended due to industrial unrest and violence.

PROCESS OF RESTRUCTURING:

Under the provisions of Securitization and Reconstruction of Financial Assets and Enforcement of
Security Interest Act, 2002 (SARFAESI Act), ARCIL had taken over possession of the secured assets of
the Company''s plants and has handed over the possession to Indoworth India Limited by virtue of an
inter se agreement between ARCIL and Indoworth India Limited. Dispute arose between ARCIL and
Indoworth India Limited (IWIL) which lead to filing of a Suit for specific performance for sale of
Assets of the company by IWIL before the Hon''ble High Court of Calcutta wherein Company was also
impleaded as a party. Besides the said Suit, various other proceedings were also initiated before the
other forums. ARCIL, IWIL and the Company have arrived at settlement and after making payment as
per the Agreement by IWIL through its nominee and the partial balance payment to be made as per
the Agreement, the said Suit has been disposed in terms of settlement Agreement. In view of the
settlement between the parties, IWIL being in possession of the assets pursuant to the Agreement
between the parties is continued to hold the assets having been transferred to it. The necessary
adjustments in the financial statements, if required, would be made upon final adjudication of the
other proceedings pending adjudication before other forum.

OPERATIONS AND MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS :

During the year under review, total revenue decreased to Rs. 139.13 crores as against Rs. 162.61 crores in the previous year.

Income from Silk Division improved during the current year.

OPERATIONS AND MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS :

During the year under review, total revenue decreased marginally to Rs. 162.61 crores as against Rs. 164.95 crores in the previous year. This was due to Cash flow shortcomings inspite of further narrowing down the working capital cycle to avail maximum rotation of funds. There was a consequent Cash Loss to the tune of Rs 17.81 crores as against a Cash Profit of Rs. 8.13 crores before Interest and Depreciation in the previous year. Overall performance of the textile industry in India continued to be under pressure due to increased cost of raw materials and other resources.

Income from the Silk Division improved considerably during the current year although the net profits from the Division was marginally lower due to all-round increase in costs.

BUSINESS OUTLOOK :

Demand for textile products have been stagnant on a global basis and have consequently affected the Companies in India as well. Sporadic fiscal instability in various global markets has also been a cause of concern. However, long term outlook of Dyed Woolen, Poly wool worsted and Silk yarn business being quite potential, and the Knitting segment expected to do better, the company is optimistic about the future owing to its determined efforts to make its presence felt in the global scenario as well as to simultaneously develop the domestic market.

PROCESS OF RESTRUCTURING :

OPERATIONS AND MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS :

During the year under review, total revenue increased to Rs. 164.95 crores as against Rs. 143.64 crores in the previous year. This has been achieved inspite of severe cash flow shortcomings by narrowing down the working capital cycle and by optimum rotation of available funds. Cash profit before Interest and Depreciation has consequently showed a decrease to Rs. 8.13 crores as against Rs. 11.54 crores in the previous year. Overall performance of the textile industry in India was under pressure due to increased prices of raw material and other resources.

Performance of the Silk Division was particularly dismal during the current year due to unprecedented price rise in raw material, which could not be transferred to customers.

BUSINESS OUTLOOK :

Demand for textile products have shown encouraging trends and have contributed in improving the top line of the Textiles Industry on a global basis and consequently of Companies in India. However sporadic fiscal instability in certain global markets was a cause of concern. The long term outlook of Dyed Woolen, Poly wool worsted and Silk yarn business seems quite potential, and the entire Knitting segment is expected to do even better. The company is continuing its vigorous efforts in domestic market with visible success, and it is therefore expected that with the buoyancy in the international Textiles arena, the future performance of the company will be further strengthened in the coming years.

PROCESS OF RESTRUCTURING :

Under the provisions of Securitisation and Reconstruction of Financial Assets and Enforcement of Security Interest Act, 2002 (SARFAESI Act), ARCIL had taken over possession of the secured assets of the Company's plants and appointed Indoworth India Limited as the Custodian of such assets.

OPERATIONS AND MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS :

During the year under review, Turnover increased substantially to Rs. 150.12 crores as against Rs. 106.41 crores in the previous year, thereby reflecting a significant increase of over 41 %. This has been achieved inspite of severe cash flow shortcomings by narrowing down the working capital cycle and by optimum rotation of available funds. Cash profit before Interest and Depreciation has accordingly showed a significant increase to Rs. 11.49 crores as against Rs. 1.60 crores in the previous year. Overall performance of the textile industry in India has been encouraging with increased demand, both domestic as well as global. However, continued increase in the price of Merino Wool did not allow the bottom line to improve even further.

Performance of the Silk Division continued to improve during the current year. Improved sourcing and pricing of raw materials with stricter cost control measures further contributed towards better returns from this Division.

BUSINESS OUT LOOK:

Demand for textile products have shown encouraging trends and have contributed in improving the performance of the Textiles Industry on a global basis and consequently of Companies in India. However sporadic fiscal instability in certain global markets are a cause of concern. The long term outlook of Dyed Woolen, Polywool worsted and Silk yam business seems quite potential, and the entire Knitting segment is expected to do even better. The company is continuing its vigorous efforts in domestic market with visible success, and it is therefore expected that with the buoyancy in the international Textiles arena, the future performance of the company will be further strengthened in the coming years.

OPERATIONS AND MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS:

During the year under review, though Turnover remained more or less at constant levels, Cash profit before Interest and Depreciation fell substantially to Rs. 1.60 crores as against Rs. 8.16 crores in the previous year. Overall performance of the textile industry in India continuing to remain stagnant during the year due to drastic global recessionistic factors, higher Capacity Utilization to offset the adverse economy could not be achieved to improve operational results. Falling demand for Woollen Worsted Yarns together with increase in the price of Merino Wool also affected the bottom line adversely.

However, performance of the Silk Division continued to improve during the current year by addition of more equipments to increase Capacity. Improved sourcing and pricing of raw materials with stricter cost control measures further contributed towards better returns from this Division.

BUSINESS OUT LOOK:

Economic and fiscal stability alone can improve the performance of the Textiles Industry on a Global basis and consequently of Companies in India. Political situation in India continues to be stable and hence will foster fast pace economic growth and development, which should benefit the Company in the current financial year. The long term out look of Dyed Woolen, Polywool worsted and Silk yarn business seems quite potential, and the entire Knitting segment is expected to do better. The company is continuing to make vigorous efforts to increase its sales in the domestic market. All these factors are likely to strengthen the future performance of the company.

PROCESS OF RESTRUCTURING:
