7. MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS:
Industry Structure
The Indian textile Industry has been a significant contributor to the Indian economy both in terms of its domestic share and exports and continues to play a pivotal role in India's growth story through its contribution to industrial output, employment generation and export earnings. The textile Industry contributes about 13% to industry output, 2.3% to the GDP. The exports from the sector are valued at around $65 billion, amounting to 12% of India's total exports. India is one of the few countries with a complete and integrated textile value chain having production at each level of textile manufacturing. The textile Industry is labour intensive and is one of the largest employers. It is second largest contributor towards
employment generation employing more than 40 million workers, after agriculture, contributing 10% to the country's manufacturing, owing to its labour-intensive nature.
Strength and Opportunities
• Robust Demand:
Rise in income levels is expected to drive demand in textile industry.
• Competitive Advantage:
India has abundant availability of raw materials such as cotton, wool, silk and jute. It also enjoys a comparative advantage in terms of skilled manpower and in cost of production;
• Policy Support:
100% FDI (automatic route) is allowed in the Indian Textile Sector.
• Abundant raw material availability;
• Low cost skilled labour;
• Promising export potential;
• With GST Implementation the organised sector is in the advantage.
Weakness and Threats
• Indian Textile Industry is highly Fragmented Industry;
• Competition in the domestic as well as world markets specially from China;
• Lack of Technological Development that affect the productivity and other activities in whole value chain;
• Cost competitiveness and low margins: Due to severe recessionary trends which are continuing in the developed countries, unit realisation of products may continue to be under pressure;
Technological obsolescence in weaving and spinning sector;
Problems of power yet prevail: Severe power shortage in some of the states will remain a big threat for the utilisation of the plant and equipment's due to shortage of power, the utilisation may drop severely and hence volatility in yarn prices may continue;
• Increase in Labour wage rate;
• Increasing input costs i.e. power, finance and logistics;
• Fluctuation in Crude Oil Prices.
Management Perception of Risks and Concerns
• In today's challenging and competitive environment, strategies for mitigating inherent risks in accomplishing the growth plans of the Company are imperative. The main risks include strategic risk, operational risk, financial risk and compliances and legal risk. The fast technology obsolescence, high cost of manufacturing and taxation are the major risk/ concerns of the business;
• Fluctuations in foreign exchange adversely impacted exports and long- term export orders cannot be booked in view of the uncertainty in exchange rates also the fluctuation in exchange rates makes it difficult to purchase machinery from abroad due to uncertainty of the future;
• Adequate availability of raw material at the right prices is crucial for the Company. Disruption in the supply or violent changes in the cost structure would affect the profitability of the company;
• Government's periodical announcements for liberalised tariff concessions offered to least developed countries like Bangladesh, Nepal, Bhutan and other countries under South Asian Free Trade Area (SAFTA) is also an area concern.
However, the future for the textile Industry looks promising, buoyed by strong domestic consumption as well as export demand. Free trade with Asian countries and proposed agreements with EU Countries will also help to boost exports. Also, the west has started taken India seriously as a potential supplier of polyester yarn apart from China. Rising government focus and favourable policies to support the industry has led to growth in the industry.
Internal Control and Management Systems:
