Directors Report of Jagjanani Textiles Ltd.

Mar 31, 2014

Dear Shareholders,

We have pleasure in presenting the 17th Annual Report of the Company and the audited statement of accounts for the year ended 31st March, 2014. A summary of the financial results is given below.

FINANCIAL RESULTS

(''000) (''000) Year ended Year ended on On 31/03/2014 31/03/2013

Gross sales including other income 1,76,947 1,70,598

Gross Profit (Loss) 63.871 53,791

Depreciation 18.744 37,619

Profit/Loss for the year 45,127 20,817

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Textile industry plays a pivotal role in India''s economy. It contributes 14% to India''s industrial production, 4% to the GDP and 17% to export earnings. It provides employment to 35 million people. Recognizing such a pivotal role the Government has been taking many a steps to minimize the effect of economic slowdown faced by the industry during the year under reference.

You are aware that in spite of acute financial crisis your Company has been able to sustain its operations to avoid damage to plant and machinery. The Company has settled the accounts of all the three banks, namely IDBI Bank, Bank of Baroda and UCO Bank. The dues of IDBI Bank and Bank of Baroda have been assigned to M/s. U V Asset Reconstruction Company Limited and the dues of UCO bank have been taken over by M/s. ASREC (India) Ltd. The borrowings from Asset Reconstruction Companies (ARCs) are at higher cost and at best can be used only as a temporary means of finance.

Market conditions for cotton textiles have not been conducive during 2013-14. On account of general economic slowdown and lower GDP, the markets have been sluggish. As we have been working with heavy constraints, our operations did not yield positive results. The settlement of UCO Bank account has resulted in write back of part loans and interest and is reflected in the accounts.

Your Company also attracts provisions of Section 23 (1) (a) (i) of The Sick Industrial Companies Act, 1985 due to erosion of Net worth.

MANAGEMENT PERCEPTION OF RISK AND CONCERN

1. Agriculture in India is still dependent on rains for irrigation As agriculture contributes substantially to our GDP, any downfall in agri production affects economy. Monsoon this year has not been up to the mark and large areas particularly in cotton growing regions have not received adequate rains. It will have its impact not only on quality of cotton but also on its prices during the current year. Consumption of manmade fibres is still low in our country as compared to global standards.

2. China has been a major buyer for Indian textiles - yarn and fabrics. This year China is reported to have decided to reduce import of textiles to encourage domestic production and this decision is showing its impact on the industry

3. However, your Company is taking all possible steps to augment its production levels irrespective of general economic conditions.

INTERNAL CONTROL SYSTEM

Your Company has developed a well defined internal control system over a period which meets its requirement. The system is reviewed periodically to keep with the times and ensure optimal utilization and protection of company''s resources. Audit Committee of the Board monitors the internal control system.

HUMAN RESOURCES/INDUSTRIAL RELATIONS

Your Company encourages innovation and performance. It appreciates and values the Human asset of the Company. In spite of difficult situation on operational front, the morale of employees is high and they have been working hard to turn the tide in favour of better working of your Company.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

You are aware that for quite some time your Company has been facing acute shortage of working capital which coupled with cumulative losses has seriously affected its operations. In the year 2011-12 your Company settled the Loan account of IDBI Bank and during 2012-13 the Loan accounts of Bank of Baroda have been settled through Assignment of Debt to an Asset Reconstruction Company. Now only UCO Bank account needs to be sorted out for which efforts are going on. Once this is settled, your Company would be in normal operational position. Your Company has created state of art manufacturing facilities which have helped overcome the difficult situation on operational front. The settlement of Bank of Baroda account has resulted in write back of part loans and interest and is reflected in the accounts.

Your Company also attracts provisions of Section 23 (1) (a) (i) of The Sick Industrial Companies Act, 1985 due to erosion of Net worth. The company has incurred loss due to poor utilization of facilities on account of paucity of working capital as also substantial investment in assets which could not be operationalised namely ring Spinning Section. The interest cost of such non operational investment and consequent losses due to inadequacy of working capital has caused the loss of Net Worth.

MANAGEMENT PERCEPTION OF RISK AND CONCERN

1. Govt, policy of intervention in cotton price mechanism and export incentive system affects Textile industry in a big way. Volatile value of national currency also affects import and export decisions. Indian economy witnessed inflationary trends during 2012-13.

2. With the general economic slowdown in India and many other countries, textile industry in India faced twin hurdles of lower demand and higher costs. The euphoria of fast economic growth in India seems vanishing. Though the Govt, is aware of these developments and is trying to address the issues, it has not been able to make a big impact.

3. However, your Company is making all out efforts to keep the wheels of industry moving and settle the matter with the last one bank amicably.

INTERNAL CONTROL SYSTEM

The Company takes abundant care to design, review and monitor the working of internal control system for optimal utilization and protection of resources. All significant issues are brought to the attention of the Audit Committee of the Board.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

The year 2008-09 was a difficult year for global economy due to severe recessionary trends resulting in economic crisis. However, things started looking up during 2009-10 in a cautious manner. Due to large domestic market, recovery in Indian economy has been faster than many developed economies. Textile industry has also shown signs of improvement. Investments made in earlier years, particularly under TUF scheme, have started showing results in terms of volume and quality. Increased manufacturing of textile products has also increased domestic competition particularly on account of shrinkage in overseas demand. Further the industry is facing substantial increase in input costs which is difficult to pass on to the consumers in short run. Government policy of withdrawal of export promotion benefits have also caused concern and slowed the sustained recovery.

Your Company has created world class weaving facilities but the same could not be utilized optimally due to paucity of working capital. The adverse economic conditions of earlier year caused loss to your Company and consequent erosion of working capital. Shortage of funds has compelled the Company to partly withhold the implementation of expansion project. Moreover, your Company had to repay part of its term loan even before the commissioning of expansion project. This led to severe shortage of funds. Companys request to the banks for restructuring of debt and extending further facilities has not evoked positive response so far. This has seriously hampered the working of your Company resulting in lower capacity utilization and consequent operational loss.

However, our faith in Indias textiles industry remains unshaken and we foresee a bright future for Indian textiles. Present global trends show a healthy improvement in demand for textiles from India.

MANAGEMENT PERCEPTION OFR1SKANDCONCERN

1. Textile industry is highly competitive not only for domestic market but for global trade as well. In such a scenario appreciating rupee value vis a vis U S Dollar has significant effect on our earnings.

2. With the globalization of Indian economy, cotton prices have gone up in tandem with global trends. Massive increase in Minimum Support Price of cotton by Central Govt, and uncaliberated export of this raw material has further added to the difficulties of textile industry. An integrated view need to be taken by the authorities in this regard for safeguarding the interest of industry.

3. Your Management is making all out efforts to improve productivity, control costs and produce better fabrics and yarn to fetch higher unit realization.

INTERNAL CONTROL SYSTEM

The Company has well defined internal control system commensurate to the size and nature of its business. The Company takes abundant care to design, review and monitor the working of internal control system for optimal utilization and protection of resources. All significant issues are brought to the attention of the Audit Committee of the Board.
