Net Profit/(Loss) for the year (25.99) (8.90)
Exceptional Items - 7.03
Net Profit/(Loss) for the year after
exceptional items (25.99) (1.87)
2. OPERATIONS
The above stated results reveal the critical situation under which your
Company has operated during the year under review. Due to weak domestic
Textile markets and the continued recessionary trend prevailing in the
international Textile market, the value of finished products have been
falling progressively in comparison to the cost of raw materials.
The effect of the Indian and international recession is quite visible
on the Textile Sector with Polyester having been affected the most.
Overall, the selling pressure has resulted in drastic decline in prices
leading to huge losses for most of the Indian Polyester Industry. The
Company has achieved a turnover of about Rs. 545 crores in spite of the
adverse market situations in both India and internationally. Due to
continuous operational losses, the Company is facing an acute shortage
of working capital that has adversely impacted the profitability of the
Company for the year. Production cost has increased greatly due to an
increase in the raw material (PTA & MEG) prices along with increases in
the power cost due to exorbitant crude oil prices. During the year
under review the overall textile market has not shown any sign of
improvement and Company had suffered net loss of about Rs 26 crores
during the year under review compared to net loss of about Rs. 9 crores
in the previous year. In view of accumulated losses, your directors are
unable to declare any dividend for the year under review.
3. EXPORTS
The worldwide recessionary trend has adversely affected the exports of
POY/PFY from the country. Despite the recessionary trend prevailing in
the global economic market, the Company has achieved exports of about
Rs 33 crores during the year under review compared to the exports of
Rs 31 crores in the previous year. Your Company is making all the
efforts to explore the new markets and improve its global market
position.
