OPERATIONS & PERFORMANCE:

During the period under review, the Company's operation remained at near similar levels as previous year. However, due to accumulated losses of earlier years, the Company continued to face a strain on its working capital resources, which in turn impacted the overall profitability and capacity utilization of the plant. Despite the liquidity constraints the Company continued maintaining production activity at all its facilities, and was able to retain its dealings with suppliers and customers.

The overall performance of the Company for the period of 6 months ended 31.03.2015 was a loss of Rs. 4674.71 lacs in comparison to the net loss of Rs. 11163.30 lacs of previous period of 12 months ended 30.09.2014. During the period under review, your Company has achieved a turnover of Rs. 20452.49 lacs against the previous year's (12 months) turnover of Rs.40660.72 lacs.

During the period under review the Company was unable to fulfill its sales commitments to its customers as no financial assistance or utilisation of sanctioned facilities was available to the Company, and that the latter has had to suffer losses and make provisions for loss in value of inventories and was unable to recover full amounts from its several customers outstanding for long. The Company expects that the lenders will accede to its requests and permit dealings to the Company so that business is not lost and operations stabilize at higher levels.

EROSION OF ENTIRE NET WORTH:

Consequent to accumulated losses of the Company exceeding its net worth during the accounting period ended 30th September 2014, and the Company having become a sick industrial company within the meaning of section 3(1) (o) of the Sick Industrial Companies (Special Provisions) Act. 1985, a Reference was filed by the Company before the Hon'ble Board for Industrial and Financial Reconstruction (BIFR).

The Company will be proposing a comprehensive scheme for restructuring of its business and affairs, and is keen that the said scheme is considered and approved by all stakeholders, and sanctioned by the Hon'ble BIFR. The scheme to be proposed by the Company will incorporate the restructuring as may have been sanctioned by lenders and other stakeholders by such time.

OUTLOOK:

The Company's restructuring last carried out in 2009 is no longer under the monitoring of CDR Forum. However the Company has submitted rehabilitation cum settlement proposal to all its lenders and is hopeful of its early consideration.

The Management of the Company is discussing various options for restructuring of debts and its proposal to the lenders is based, inter-alia, on the following:

* Restructuring / realignment / re-sizing of it's the debts in accordance with various Guidelines and precedents, which will help reduce costs on account of interest.

* Improving operational efficiencies, and rationalization of manpower and other costs.

* Continually developing lower cost variants of value added yarns.

* Disposal of noncore assets to generate funds to augment working capital resources.

The Company's proposal to its lenders also envisages that petitions and applications pending before various Courts, amongst others, under Recovery of Debts Due to Banks and Financial Institutions Act, 1993 Securitisaiton and Reconstruction of Financial Assets and Enforcement of Security Interest Act, 2002, will stand compromised with both parties giving up their respective claims and the Company being required to pay restructured amount of debt.

Operations & Performance

During the year in retrospect, the performance of the Company continued to be stressed. The compounded impact of earlier year''s losses as comprehensively highlighted in the last years Report to you, caused further erosion of working capital funds resulting in subdued operations. The several requests to lenders for restructuring & enhancement of need based working capital funds have not been met with.

The current period under review faced additional challenges, like sudden glut in the domestic and international market, with abnormal increased input cost of raw material and power, fluctuating global commodity prices and low demand coupled with high debt, had an adverse financial impact on the Company.

The cumulative effect of all the above mentioned factors took a heavy toll on the overall performance and the Company for the period of 12 months ended 30.09.2014 with a loss of Rs. 11163.30 lacs in comparison to the net loss of Rs. 7480.38 lacs of previous period of 18 months ended on 30.09.2013. During the year under review your Company has achieved a turnover of Rs. 40660.72 lacs against the previous year''s (18 months) turnover of Rs. 77772.43 lacs.

During the year under review, the exceptional increase in losses of the Company is attributed to paucity of working capital funds and exceptional items related to provisions for doubtful debts and advances.

Erosion of Entire Net Worth

As per the audited financial statements as at 30th September 2014, the accumulated losses of the Company have exceeded its entire net worth and the Company has become a Sick Industrial Company under section 3(1)(o) of the Sick Industrial Companies (Special Provisions) Act. 1985. Though, the Board of Directors of the Company had sufficient reasons to form an opinion that the Company had become a Sick Industrial Company, on the basis of unaudited financial statements for the period ended June 30, 2014 and accordingly a Reference was filed with Board for Industrial and Financial Reconstruction under section 15(1) of the SICA on October 16, 2014 and registration of the same is awaited.

Outlook:

In order to come out of the difficult situation and explore the current opportunities, the Management of the Company has been working on various options and some of the steps which would have an effect on the overall performance of the Company for consideration of lenders of the Company are listed as under:

- To restructure/ realign / re-size its debts in terms of CDR Guidelines with an aim to reduce costs by increasing efficiencies, rationalization of manpower and other costs.

- To continue with an effort on development of low cost variants of value added yarns.

- To dispose of noncore assets of the Company and the funds so generated will be infused in the working of the Company.

- To explore and develop overseas markets as export of yarn is profitable on account of appreciation of US dollar.

- Govt. of Punjab has fully repaired the canal on which all the five Micro Hydel Projects of the Company are situated. With this the water availability will be much better and Company will be able to generate more electricity. This will reduce the power cost.

- With revival of US economy the demand of yarn will increase, which will result in increase in better margins.

In view of the above developments, the Company has made a proposal to all lenders in April 2014, for deep restructuring with Holding on Operations. The Lenders and CDR EG in its meeting held on 10.06.2014 decided that TEV Study of operation of the Company to be carried out, which was assigned to M/S Dun & Bradstreet, who submitted the Report on 23.072014, endorsing the viability of the Company. However, lenders were not willing to support restructuring proposal and decided for initiating recovery actions under the RDDB & SARFAESI Acts. The recall notices are being suitably replied under the guidance of legal experts with a request to the lenders to withdraw the same in the interest of all stakeholders and long term viability of the Company. The Company is continuously pursuing the lenders to reconsider their decisions and recommend for restructuring as requested. However, the holding on operations was permitted by the lenders to the Company in October 2014.

The Company has raised its claim on the lenders for the amount of losses suffered by the Company to the extent it considers the losses as attributed to the lenders.

The management of the Company is making efforts for restructuring of its business and affairs and expects to revive itself. The current efforts are also targeted towards increasing its sales and profit margins by increased production/ development of value added yarns. The Company is also launching some new products with some major retailers in US as well as Europe and other international markets.

Operations & Performance

High cotton prices, coupled with fluctuating inventory, saw Textile and Clothing (T&C) companies post a dip in bottom line by over 100 per cent in many cases over 2011-12, says the Confederation of Indian Textile Industry (Citi).

There is no issue with cotton prices rising, if they do so gradually. However, from October 2010 to March 2011, prices rose from Rs 34,000 per candy (356 kg) to Rs 63,000 per candy. In the next one month, it almost came down to where it (originally) was. Such high fluctuations led to textile mills incurring heavy losses, during the current year.

According to data compiled by the Centre for Monitoring Indian Economy, out of 234 Textile and Clothing (T&C) companies, 74 per cent or 174 companies saw poorer financial results for the first three quarters of 2011-12.
