OPPORTUNITIES, CHALLENGES AND OUTLOOK

Opportunities

China plus one policy, Economic collapse / volatility in Sri Lanka, Myanmar, Bangladesh, and Pakistan has played out in favour of India as the world has started looking at India as reliable partner for their requirement.

Rising demand for low cost, sustainable and eco-friendly products.

Cost can be reduced by blending with cheaper man-made fibre.

Emergence of new Markets: FTA with Australia, Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA) with UAE and expected favourable trade agreements with UK / Europe present an opportunity for textile manufacturers to expand into new markets and diversify their customer base.

Challenges

Competitive rivalry between big players is intense in the industry

• The biggest threat to cotton products is competition from other low-cost man-made fibres. Consumers are shifting their focus to low-cost products which has led to intense competition and pricing pressure in the global textile industry

• Further the textile industry is highly sensitive to global economic conditions and can be significantly impacted by global demand and pricing

• Working Capital and Liquidity Stress in the market.

• Low demand in the market.

• Financial services companies often compete on the basis of offering lower financing rates, higher deposit rates and investment services;
