Industry Structure & Development
Clothing and Garments: The clothing industry has strengths across the entire value chain from fiber, yarn, fabric to apparel. The Indian textile and apparel industry is highly diversified with a wide range of segments ranging from products of traditional handloom, handicrafts, wool, and silk products to the organized textile industry in India. The organized textile industry in India is characterized by the use of capital-intensive technology for the mass production of textile products and includes spinning, weaving, processing, and apparel manufacturing.
Opportunities and Threats
Clothing and Garments: Positive steps taken by the Central Government for the paper industry, from allocation of funds to give extra rebate to exporters (mainly on made-ups) and various other benefits, are expected to improve investment in this sector and provide more business opportunities in the near future. With increasing capacities of man-made fibres as compared to cotton, the preferred shift of the consumer to use products of man-made fibres i.e. viscose, polyester, polyamide, acrylic, etc. and its blends, is expected.
We believe that the principal factors affecting competition in our business include client relationships reputation, the abilities of employees, market focus and the liquidity on the Balance Sheet.
Indian garment industry has an advantage as it produces and exports stylish garments at economical prices due to cheap labour rates. Today, by way of Technological advancement and use of sophisticated machinery, it has enabled the manufacturers to achieve better quality and well-designed garments.

Segment-wise or product-wise performance
During the year under review, since Company is being working in a single segment therefore the specific performance does not stand eligible.
Outlook
The outlook for industry and the Company in the near term can be viewed with cautious optimism. he Indian textiles industry has immense potential to register an indelible mark while contributing to the growth and success story of the nation but the sector needs more support from the government like policy initiatives, crackdown on red-tapism involved in availing schemes meant for the textile industry.
Moreover, the Centre also took the decision to rationalize the duties on raw material inputs. But more export promotion policies are required for the textiles sector, like in the past, the Central government allowed 100 percent FDI in the sector under the automatic route.
Indian textile industry is entering into a no holds barred kind of phase where the sky is the limit, provided the sector gets robust support from the government in terms of policies, promotions, and incentives so that the domain can move up the ladder and chart its own course in the right direction.
