Future Outlook:
The per capita polyester consumption is found to be 2.5 kg compared to
the world average of 6.8 kg. Polyester consumption also witnessed a
marginal increase of 2% m the overall domestic fiber consumption stats,
and was seen eating to the share of share of other man-made fibers.
Being dubbed as the poor man's cloth, this trend is expected to
continue with the growing population and will exponentially increase
with the increase in the GDP growth. The new major itanan government
will play an incrementally crucial role in bringing back consumer
confidence in the economy. We expect this increase in consumer
confidence to bring about an upsurge in domestic demand. Though, it
might lead to an appreciated rupee which would hurt us in the short-
term, we do expect that a stable - growth bonneted government, with a
stable currency are going to have a positive impact on the industry as
a whole. We expect the new government bringing about favorable reforms
for the textile sectors. We aim to capitates on these future reforms by
having a strong liquidity position, so we can capitates on each and
every opportunity the market generates by drastically expanding and
diversifying our product base as to cater a larger audience. We aim to
use retained earnings, preferred stock and debt as our man source of
funding for our future growth plans. Last but not the least, your

met by improving our systematic efficiency, which will lead to a better
cost rationalization, higher productivity, quality assurance and
product differ nation.
The economy is in the stage of prospect and the Company expects good
demand for its products in domestic as well as international markets.
Major markets for Indian Textile and Clothing (T & C) export are the
USA and EU and they have recovered from the recession of the past
years. The domestic market is also on the path of healthy growth
because of the fact that few manufacturing facilities operating abroad
are slowing down due to recession. The home-textiles and garment
segments are reflecting sound growth both the domestic and
international markets due to good demand of apparels. There is a
substantial scope for further growth in these segments. Your Company

Dear shareholders,
2013 was a tough year for the global economy and India in particular.
Low customer sentiments coupled with rising interest rates to curb
liquidity created severe cash crunch in the industrial sector.
Additionally, the growing volatility in the rupee for the year created
a very uncertain atmosphere in the economy. Despite the huge
fluctuation in raw material prices and availability, your firm is
pleased to announce an increase in the turnover by 17.8%. Your firm has
taken several cost rationalization initiatives to strengthen the
bottom-line in the next financial year.
® Implementation of ERP - After 2 years of rigorous grubwork, we are
pleased to announce success in the process of implementation of the
system throughout the entire process of the company. This initiative is
expected toexponentialiy increase transparency and accountability in
the system and should increasingly benefit the firm in the years to
come.
® Expanding value added basket - During the year, we have increasingly
increased our focus on creating a wider portfolio of products. We have successfully added eco-friendly, anti-bacterial, flame retardants,
micro deniers, optical white, reverse twist and eli twist yarns to our
range of existing products. We wish to leverage this portfolio of
products to strategically enhance profitability in the future.
® Growing market presence - We have been increasingly concentrating on
increasing market share across both domestic and international markets.
We have been able to accomplish this by understanding the demographics
of every marketand creating a competitive marketing strategy through
product differentiation and cost competitiveness. As a result, we have
been successfully been able to increase brand awareness and market
share in the targeted markets.
® Customer centricity - We have started taking a more customer centric
approach to marketing. Sales team are increasingly working directly
with both domestic and export customers to understand their new product
development needs and collaborate with them to develop new yarns
in-house. This has helped us form excellent associations with our
customers and our customer retention rates continue to stay abnormally
high. Continuous interaction between the marketing and production team
has helped us to strategically align our operational strategy to our
marketing strategy, thereby creating synergies in cost realisation..
® Continuous Improvement Plan - We have exponentially increased class
room training hours for both workers and supervisors to create
awareness about the principle of Kaizen. This bottom-up approach to
improvement has already started reaping fruits in terms of floor-level
cost savings and has assisted us creating a very positive environment
at work.
Your Directors have pleasure in presenting their 7th Annual Report on
the Business and operations together with Audited Annual accounts of

Future Outlook
The per capita polyester consumption is found to be 2.6kg compared to
the world average of 6.8kg. Polyester consumption also witnessed a
marginal increase of 2% in the overall domestic fiber consumption
stats, and was seen eating into the share of other man-made fibres.
Being dubbed as the poor man''s cloth, this trend is expected to
continue with the growing population and will exponentially increase
with the increase in the GDP growth. The new majoritarian-government
will play an incrementally crucial role in bringing back consumer
confidence in the economy. We expect this increase in consumer
confidence to bring about an upsurge in domestic demand. Though, it
might lead to an appreciated rupee which would hurt us in the short-
term, we do expect that a stable - growth oriented government, with a
stable currency are going to have a positive impact on the industry as
a whole. We expect the new government bringing about favorable reforms
for the textile sectors. We aim to capitalize on these future reforms
by having a strong liquidity position, so we can capitalize on each and
every opportunity the market generates by drastically expanding and
diversifying our product base as to cater a larger audience. We aim to
use retained earnings, preferred stock and debt as our main source of
funding for our future growth plans. Last but not the least, your
company believes that the competition in the emerging markets will be
met by improving our systematic efficiency, which will lead to a better
cost rationalization, higher productivity, quality assurance and
product differenation.
Expansion Plan
The company aims to increase spindeleage capacity by 10,512 spindles
with a capital expenditure of 30cr and plans to complete the expansion
within 6 months. This facility is expected to be fully operational
fromjanuary''15. It plans to fund this capex by using an ecclectic mix
of promoter''s equity, retained earnings and debt to ensure substainable
growth for the company in the future. This expansion will bring
tremendous economies of scale and substantially increase the
bottom-line of the company.

Operations:
During the year, your company has achieved a Total turnover of Rs.
10,223.50 Lakhs (Rs. 12,037.49 Lakhs in the previous year) registering
a decline of 15.06% over the previous year. The Company has recorded a
Loss of Rs. 890.83 Lakhs as against the profit of Rs. 677.79 Lakhs in
the previous year. During the year textile industry suffered a major
setback due to fall in price margins and increase in the cost of raw
material and hence the Company could not performed well.
Exports
The export turnover (through merchant export) of your Company during
the year was Rs. 447.60 Lakhs. Your Company has been exporting yarn to
various countries like Brazil, USA, Argentina, Portugal and continue to
explore new markets to improve performance. This trend of increase in
exports expected to continue in the coming years.
Future Outlook
The fall in price margins coupled with increase in interest cost and
depreciation has resulted in loss to Company. It is largely because of
the recessionary trend in the Europe and textile companies were under
pricing pressure throughout the year. It is expected that the
government will take adequate steps to provide relief to the textile
industry.
Extension of moratorium period for new loans , conversion of eroded
working capital in to short term loan etc are under active
consideration of the government and a relief package is likely to be
declared by the government very soon. The home textiles and garment
segments are reflecting some improvements and as such there is
substantial scope for further growth in these segments. Your company
believes that demand in emerging markets will be met by developing
production system based on cost efficiency, high productivity, quality
assurance and developing export market.

The Company has started implementation of expansion plan by addition of
12,096 Spindles at an estimated cost of Rs. 35 Crores to bring about

2010-11, balance expansion was deferred due to poor market off take in

is hoping to complete installation of 12096 spindles by the end of
September this year.

towards payment of same has been shown in contingent liabilities and
shall be paid in future out of profits.
