 Review of Operations
 
 During the financial year under review, the turnover of the company has
 increased to Rs. 18900 Lakhs from Rs. 16497 Lakhs in the corresponding
 previous financial year, registering a growth rate of 14.56%. The
 company has posted a net loss of Rs. 2623.08 Lakhs for the financial year
 ended 31st March, 2012, which was mainly incurred on account of sales
 of redundant export stocks in the domestic market at discounted price.
 Your Company has been catering the international markets for the
 made-ups and the final products manufactured for international markets
 were never disposed in the domestic market as those products were based
 on the specific order and approved design of the customers. The
 rejection of the approved design, excess production against the order
 etc.  were kept in the stocks and the same was not converted to cash
 awaiting better realization price.  During the year, these stocks were
 disposed in the domestic market at price lower than international rate
 for bringing the cash flow.
 
 Your Company has taken various cost effective methods resulting in
 better economies of production and purchases throughout the financial
 year.
 
 Your company has continued to broad base the existing customer
 relationships in US and UK markets and these relationships spread over
 many long years showcase our ability in customer satisfaction and
 reliability. The Company emphasizes to create a network of buying
 houses, major retail outlets and commission agents and also develops
 the brand building exercise both internationally and domestically. The
 Indian economy showed a remarkable resilience in the aftermath of
 global economic slowdown in previous years. Your Company could secure
 good orders from international as well as domestic markets.
 
 In the external scenario, the textile market witnessed unprecedented
 increase in cotton prices which had cascading effect on the entire
 supply chain, resulting instability in the price of the final products
 of the Company. The cost of production was high due to lower
 utilisation, increase in the interest rate of the term loan and working
 capital facilities availed from the Banks. Your Company was unable to
 run spinning and weaving units in its full capacity due to frequent
 power cuts. In order to execute the orders in time, some portion of the
 yarn and fabric were outsourced during the year.
 
 During the year under review, the design division of the Company was
 hived off by incorporating a new entity viz. M/s. VTX Design Services
 Pvt. Ltd. for providing exclusive design services to parent and other
 textile companies.  This entity shall develop new creative designs &
 patterns which meet the latest trends of the customers worldwide.
 
 Mile Stones

 Supplier Award awarded by Macy''s Merchandising Group for 13th
 consecutive year, in recognition of its continued outstanding service
 to Macy''s Merchandising Group. Your Company is the only Company

 Future
 
 The growth and future of Indian textile industry depends upon various
 factors such as availability of raw material at reasonable rate,
 uninterrupted power supply, availability of manpower at competitive
 cost, foreign exchange fluctuation etc. However, the level of exports
 in textiles from developing countries is increasing even if in the
 presence of high tariffs and quantitative restrictions by economically
 developed countries. The Company has planned to enter into the domestic
 market to increase the utilisation of the various multi-location
 plants.
 
 The future of your Company''s performance looks very promising since the
 project expansion programme of the company successfully completed
 during last year and with increased production capacity, the company is
 in a position to meet its international as well as domestic orders in
 time.

 hotels and hospitals both in India and aboard. The responses and
 enquires received in various domestic textile fairs participated by
