INDUSTRY OUTLOOK

The domestic demand for Polyester filament Yarn (PFY) for apparel and non-apparel sector is improving due to healthy growth in GDP and newer application of polyster. This is a prime material for textiles. The raw material for polyester yarn is PTA/MEG which falls under petrochemical industry. Overall, FY 22-23 is expected to be a tough year for the textile industry. Even some Govt owned mills under NTC are still suffering adverse effects of the pandemic. In the era of ever increasing prices of Oil & Petroleum Product Prices and Now, major focus will be on cost cutting measures, improving productivity, reduction in wastage and efforts on taking quality to next level and deriving efficiency to make products further cost competitive. However, since our factory is not in operation, we are not in the position to take the benefit of the industrial growth.

OPPORTUNITIES

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.

RISKS AND CONCERNS

Overall negative impact is expected across the industry due to current COVID 19 pandemic. A shift towards online business is expected to happen due to the fear & the restrictions to maintain the social distancing. Also, there could be short time recessionary pressure due to job losses and money crunch in the market and it will take a considerable amount of time before we could see healthy demand coming back in the Textile industry.

HUMAN RESOURCES/INDUSTRIAL RELATIONS

Although there were some labour issues. However all issues have been amicably settled by way of the Golden handshake scheme accepted by the employees union.

CHALLENGES

PTA/MEG/POY are the principals Raw materials for our product whose prices are linked with international market of Oil & Petroleum Product Prices which is of late ever increasing. Thus apart from normal fluctuation due to demand and supply of currency fluctuation may also affect the prices. Currently due to Covid 19 it is very difficult to predict that when will the international markets will get open for trade and situation will settle down to normalcy. Due to Russia Ukraine conflict the petroleum product has been prevailing at a very high rate. However our raw material PTMEG are derivative of the petroleum product which will push import cost high. It may not be possible for the industry to pass on the entire cost to the consumer, which will result lower margin for the industry.
