REVIEW OF KEY BUSINESS MATTERS

The Indian macro-economic outlook is turning positive with a marked decline in inflation and a comfortable external position helped by positive government policies and fall in global crude oil prices. Changes adopted in GDP reporting based on an updated base year, wider coverage of goods and services and the inclusion of tax data showed a more robust economic performance than projected earlier, with initial estimates for 2014-15 showing growth accelerated to 7.4% as industry and service sectors expanded. GDP growth is projected at 7.8% in 2015-16 and expected to further rise to 8.2% by 2016-17. Government efforts towards regulating general inflation, a pro-investment attitude, improvement in fiscal and current account deficit, and movement on resolving structural bottlenecks are steps in the right direction. A global economic slowdown, barring some positive signs in U.S.A., does however create stresses and increases complexities in our economic environment. Challenges to economic prospects include possible rise in oil prices, uncertain monsoons, and slow revival of customer confidence.

Despite improving fundamentals in, and continuing strong potential, of our economy, the financial year was marked by generally weak customer sentiment. Globally, the woollen textiles market also continued to be depressed. Some traditionally strong U.S. businesses remained weak buyers due to their own reorganisation/ restructuring. Increasing competition from synthetic fabrics and cotton, and cheaper supplies from China, worked to influence customer preference in their favour. A marked shift to ready-mades is also impacting overall superior fabric demand at home. Wool and polyester prices were soft during the year aided by a relatively stable rupee.

In these overall conditions the Company could achieve a revenue from operations of Rs.132 crores against Rs.150 crores last year. Domestic volumes were marginally lower. Export sales were lower by 30% and were also impacted by the fall in the value of the Euro, rendering some exports uneconomic. Average sales realisations improved due to a richer wool product-mix. Costs and overheads were largely controlled and operational efficiencies improved. The Company continues to take steps to broaden its markets and take measures to improve operations, trim overheads and strengthen liquidity.
