During the year under review, your company achieved total revenue of Rs. 274.50 Crores as against Rs 271.35 Crores in the previous year. However, the company has incurred a loss of Rs. 16.51 Crores.

In the financial year 2011-12, Spinning Industry has faced unprecedented period of difficulty due to slow down in the yarn demand and sharp decline in the cotton prices. The uncertainties in the export policy of Government of India related to cotton fiber and cotton yarn had affected the textile Industry very badly. The main reason is the restriction imposed by Government of India on cotton yarn exports in the last quarter of year 2010-11. This has led to huge accumulation of cotton yarn inventory with spinning mills resulting to crash of yarn prices. The same has caused financial stress in the Industry.

- The company has incurred losses due to slow down in the textile and depreciation of Indian Rupee, the prices of yarn declined thereby impacting the profit margins. Further, due to slow down, there has been less production and low capacity utilization. The lower capacity utilization has impacted the net margin due to lesser recovery of fixed expenses.
