 REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
 
 The year 2011-12 was one of the most difficult year not only for the
 Company but worldwide textile industry and in many ways even worse than
 2008-09. Cotton and yarn prices after touching an all time high in
 March 2011, suddenly crashed worldwide by over 35% in a short period of
 two months leaving the whole industry dazed.
 
 This followed by uncertainty in the global market due to European
 crisis and the imposition of excise duty on garments lead to
 exceptionally difficult year for all segments of the textile business.
 
 The extreme volatility in the currency in the second half of the year
 further worsened matters. Last but not the least Policies changes
 regarding exports of raw cotton and yarn, and reduction of export
 incentives remained the biggest culprit for the extreme volatility in
 global textile market.
 
 The year saw the turnover of the Company plunge from Rs.485 Crores to
 Rs. 382 Crores i.e. a 21% fall due to poor demand and basic selling
 prices coming down. Due to the reasons mentioned above, the Company
 booked a loss of Rs.2.17 crores after taxes.
 
 Over the last 2 years, your company has been paying more emphasis on
 its branded knitwear business. The contribution of this segment
 increased to 20% of turnover compared to 17% last year. This was
 despite the fact that due to excise, we lost almost 3 months sales. The
 turnover of all other divisions reduced due to both lower volumes and
 prices..
 
 As a part of its strategy to slowly exit the cotton fibre business, the
 Company sold its ginning factory at Gondal, Gujarat for Rs.18.75
 crores. The Company also plans to sell its ginning factory at Rajula,
 Gujarat and exit the volatile cotton commodity business fully and focus
 on the stable value added business. This crop year, Rajula Ginning
 Factory was not operated, otherwise it would have further worsened the
 scenario.
 
 The Company has almost completed its Rs 20 crore garment expansion
 project in Avinashi. Further it has introduced many new products in its
 casual wear segment.
 
 This year has broadly been a year of caution and fire fighting. It was
 difficult to implement new initiatives and push for growth.
 
 Losses during the year has occurred mainly due to worldwide fall in
 cotton value chain since April, 2011, currency volatilities, increase
 in interest rates, Power rates and withdrawal of export subsidies and
 increase in taxes.
 
 FUTURE OUTLOOK
 
 The worst is almost over and the company is expected to cover up the
 set back in the first half of the current year itself. The depreciating
 rupee, falling cotton prices with low production of yarn across the
 country due to labour & power issues has created a favourable situation
 for cotton yarn. However with the global uncertainty so high, non
 clarity of Government policies - its difficult to predict precisely. We
 hope for the best.
 
 The Government TUF scheme for textiles has expired in March 2012, and
 all are waiting for the new policy announcement. However the Company
 has no major expansion plans for this year, though the Rs 100 crore
 spinning expansion project at Rajula (Gujarat) is going on and is
 expected to be completed by March 2013. TUF sanctions for this project
 had already been confirmed in time.
 
 The Company during the preceding year, due to slow demand and excise
 issues, had to go slow on its knitwear business. However this year once
 again the Company is looking for 50% growth in this segment. It is
 planning to go for a totally new ad campaign and put extra thrust on
 electronic and press media. The Company is also planning to focus on
 setting up exclusive shops in a big way, e-commerce and digital
 marketing through social media.
 
 The Company plans to leverage its strong brand equity and expand over
 markets and products with strong designing, advertisement and
 merchandising.
 
 The yarn and fabric segments are expected to grow at 20% per annum,
 however margins are expected to be much better than last year.
 
 We are confident that your Company will be back on the growth path
 after a watershed year. Our emphasis on high margin business and focus
 on stable business portfolio can be expected to show positive results
 for the Company and its stake holders.
 
 Your Company intends to install Solar Power Plants offline for
 localized captive consumption within each Spinning Mills. We hope by
 2016 all our mills and manufacturing units will be running 100% on
 clean Solar / Wind Power. This move is to promote eco-sustainability
 and will certainly be our bit of efforts to save earth and to save
 trees
