GLOBAL ECONOMY AND OUTLOOK
The global economy demonstrated measured resilience in 2025, navigating a challenging landscape defined by geopolitical tensions, elevated interest rates, and persistent supply-side pressures. According to the IMF World Economic Outlook, April 2026, world GDP grew by 3.4 percent in 2025 and is projected to expand by 3.1 percent and 3.2 percent in 2026 and 2027 respectively. These projections, which assume a limited-scale conflict in the Middle East, reflect a broadly stable growth trajectory as the global economy transitions beyond the initial shocks of high inflation. In the advanced economies, central banks have begun pivoting toward monetary easing as inflationary pressures recede. U.S. inflation, however, remains slightly above target, sustaining complexity in global capital flows and currency markets. Energy costs and supply chain stability continue to command boardroom attention worldwide. Sustained hostilities in the Middle East have periodically amplified geopolitical risk premiums, pushing energy prices higher and straining traditional trade routes. Against this backdrop, the global industrial sector is embracing what we see as a defining strategic shift of resilience through diversification, characterised by the regionalisation of supply chains and a deliberate effort to reduce exposure to volatile logistics costs. For a manufacturer with our international footprint, this recalibration of global trade presents both risk managing and opportunity to capture.
INDUSTRY OUTLOOK
According to the IMF World Economic Outlook, April 2026, world GDP grew by 3.4 percent in 2025 and is projected to expand by 3.1 percent and 3.2 percent in 2026 and 2027 respectively. These projections, which assume a limited-scale conflict in the Middle East, reflect a broadly stable growth trajectory as the global economy transitions beyond the initial shocks of high inflation. However, since our factory is not in operation, although we are not in the positionto take the benefit of the industrial growth, but we shall restart with major cost cutting measures for sustaining in future. Despite the global uncertainties & macro-economic challenges, Indias domestic market has shown resilience over the past few years. Indias domestic textile and apparel (T&A) market is estimated to US$ 157 billion in
2025-26, reflecting a growth of 7% compared to the previous year. Apparel dominates, contributing US$ 115 billion, while home textiles (US$ 12 billion) and technical textiles (US$ 30 billion) are steadily growing. In recent times, the Iran-Israel-US conflict has significantly impacted Indias textile and apparel sector, creating pressures across logistics, input costs, and overall operations. Disruptions in key maritime routes, particularly the Red Sea and the Strait of Hormuz, have led to shipment rerouting, increasing transit times, and raising freight and insurance costs, thereby affecting exporters margins and delivery timelines. Concurrently, energy supply constraints have intensified the situation, as Indias LPG imports, of which majority pass through the Strait of Hormuz, have been disrupted. Overall, the industry is witnessing an additional cost burden due to war-related surcharges, adversely impacting global competitiveness.
OPPORTUNITIES
We remain firmly committed to a strategy of sustainable, value-accretive growth. Our capital investment in knitting machine capacity has forward-integrated our operations into higher-value fabric products and positions us well for medium-term earnings growth. Going forward, we intend to expand our product basket, grow our value-added segment, realign our customer base toward more strategic relationships, deepen our penetration of the fabric market, and continue driving operational excellence across our manufacturing facilities. Sustainability remains a parallel priority. We will continue deploying renewable energy assets, targeting a minimum of 75 to 80 percent of our total energy requirements from green sources.The perceptible shift to manmade fibers in the international textile market is already having a similar effect in the Indian textile markets. With the right government policies for encouraging higher consumption of fabrics made from manmade fibers present an opportunity to our company in the years to come. A textile park is being developed adjacent to the factory which is likely to be operational within a year. With the textile park being operationalized the company would be in a better position to market its products and to go for more value added products. Besides with the prioritization of the look east policy, above factory is strategically placed in the north eastern part of the country which will present us with export opportunities. The company is also trying to use its expertise in trading activities and in the service of securing export and import business.

RISKS AND CONCERNS
The broader economic trends are poised to directly affect a companys growth potential. Persistent inflation has resulted in increase in commodity prices worldwide. Furthermore, the anticipated rise in central bank interest rates in the coming year may dampen growth and strain economies, especially in emerging markets. It is thereby important to manage cost pressures to sustain the Companys overall performance in these conditions.
Reduced purchasing power and increased demand could result in significant shifts in consumer behavior, negatively impacting the textile and apparel market. Consumers might seek more budget-friendly options, potentially leading to reduced growth and profitability for the Company.
