We have prepared a comprehensive overview of the industrial space sequenced as macroeconomic view, industrial and exports revival in India, rising middle class, digital leap fogging and financing demand.
A. ECONOMIC OUTLOOK
Indias textiles sector is one of the oldest industries in Indian economy dating back several centuries. The textile industry has two broad segments. First, the unorganized sector consists of handloom, handicrafts and sericulture, which are operated on a small scale and through traditional tools and methods. The second is the organized sector consisting of spinning, apparel and garments segment which apply modern machinery and techniques such as economies of scale. Keeping in view the above considerations, the company chooses the business of trading in textile industry. The recent GDP growth figures of 5.4% year over year1 for the second quarter of fiscal year 2024 to 2025 probably caught markets off guard (it was significantly below the Reserve Bank of Indias projection of 6.8%). Slower growth in the first half of the fiscal (6%) led the RBI to bring down the annual projection to 6.6% (down from an earlier projection of 7%). However, its essential not to let the headline numbers overshadow the nuanced story beneath: GDP is just one lens to evaluate economic health, and this quarter reveals resilience in certain pockets that are worth noting.
GLOBAL ECONOMIC OVERVIEW:
Global growth is projected to be in line with the April 2024 World Economic Outlook (WEO) forecast, at 3.2 percent in 2024 and 3.3 percent in 2025. Services inflation is holding up progress on disinflation, which is complicating monetary policy normalization. Upside risks to inflation have thus increased, raising the prospect of higher for even longer interest rates, in the context of escalating trade tensions and increased policy uncertainty. The policy mix should thus be sequenced carefully to achieve price stability and replenish diminished buffers.

We believe that we are well placed to leverage on the growth opportunities in the economy.
