Dear Members,
The Directors present the 30th Annual Report together with the Audited
Statement of Accounts or the Financial Year 2013-14 ended 31st March,
2014.

Directors are exploring various other opportunities to further improve

2. DIVIDEND
In view of decreasing of trend in turnover and liquidity in the F.Y.
2013-14, the Board of the Directors of the Company do not recommended
any dividend on its Equity shares for the year ended 2013-14.
3. TEXTILE INDUSTRIES OUTLOOK:
For the cotton year (October - September) 2013 - 2014, cotton
production was 37.5 million bales. This may largely be attributed to
favorable monsoons and higher acreage of high yielding Bt (Bacillus
Thuringiensis) cotton (around 90% of total cultivated area).
However, the company believes that the adverse weather developments in
January 2014 has lead to lower than expected actual production for
cotton year 13-14, Cotton demand remained sluggish for 2013 due to weak
textile and apparel consumption worldwide; however, the Chinese reserve
policy supported domestic cotton prices. Most of the seasonal yield
went to state reserve stock, and the release of reserve cotton together
with cotton import were the major purchase channels for mills,
4. FUTURE OUTLOOK
We expect India''s cotton consumption to increase 10% yoy to 29.7
million bales in FY15, driven by strong mill consumption. This is in
response to the increase in demand by China for quality Indian cotton
yarn, which is more economical both in terms of production and raw
materials. Chinese millers have to pay 40% duty on importing cotton
from India while none for cotton yarn. Indian raw cotton prices
(ginned) are likely to remain attractive in FY15. The prices are
currently 8.0%-10.0% lower than global prices as measured by Cotlook A
index.
A revival in consumer demand in the US and Europe may increase cotton
demand from the countries namely Pakistan, Bangladesh, Turkey, Vietnam
and Thailand.
This revival may also help Indian cotton exporters to offset the lower
demand from China in cotton year 13-14 Furthermore, the Indian Finance
Ministry in September 2013 withdrew export promotion incentives on
cotton and cotton yarn under the focus market scheme and incremental
export incentivisation scheme, given the surge in export value of these
products. These incentives were targeted at enhancing India''s export
competitiveness by offsetting high freight cost and other externalities
to select international markets (excluding China and Bangladesh) The
Chinese government has planned to discontinue'' the current reserve
policy and make trials for a target price subsidy scheme on cotton.
Onwards aiming at decoupling cotton prices with government subsidy and
returning the price generating power to market. Nonetheless, lower
Chinese demand, coupled with increases in stocks outside of China,
could lead to lower prices in 14-15 and beyond.

2. DIVIDEND
In view of plough back of profit for the expansion of business of the
Company, the Board of the Directors of the Company do not recommended
any dividend on its Equity shares for the yearended2012-13.
3. TEXTILE INDUSTRY OUT LOOK
An India cotton textile remains negative to stable for 2013 on account
of subdued demand, although margins are expected to benefit from
softening raw material prices. The outlook for synthetic textiles
remains negative for 2012 due to reversal of substitution demand and
oversupply in domestic partially oriented yarn, pressurizing selling
prices and margins of synthetic textile companies.
2012 was marked by stability and restoration of operating margins for
textile players across the value chain led by steady cotton prices, and
the consequent positive impact on liquidity. Margins have been
stable-to-improving, led by a better product mix, commanding higher
margins.
4. FUTURE OUTLOOK
The future of the textiles industry seems to be bright in all aspects.
As such Government places all its trust and relies sector for its
strong ''employment creation'' capability, more precisely in the garments
manufacturing side. Lowering tax burdens on companies will play an
important part in cutting down production costs and boosting
competitiveness, increasing ability to tap high-volume orders from the
global market. Modernization would enable companies provide quality and
volume solutions which is in constant demand by international buyers.
In that view, many manufacturing companies in India are rushing towards
expansion and modernization options. Manufacturers are having recourse
to fund raising programme pushing EPS to higher growth, dissolving
equity on its way. Business collaborations with foreign players,
creation of buying offices and Government''s effort to enhance quality
production and export are many visible signs of Indians coming into
force on the global market.
