highest-ever revenue of 605.56 Crores from the operations in the current year, compared to

As per the Techno-Economic Viability (TEV) study conducted by Dun & Bradstreet, the
Expansion Project's revenue for FY 202425 was estimated at 240 Crores at the time
of term loan approval by the lender banks. However, due to better capacity utilization and
an optimized efficiencyplan, the Company has achieved a revenue of 321 Crores, reflecting
strong operational performance and a 34% growth over the estimate.
The increase in revenue during the year is primarily attributable to the commissioning
of the Expansion Project comprising 41,472 spindles, undertaken at a cost of 218.00 Crores
for the manufacturing of 100% Cotton Compact Yarn. The project was successfully
commissioned on January 31st, 2024, ahead of the scheduled date of April 1st,
2024. The full impact of this commissioning is reflected in the current year's revenue, as
the project became operational in the last quarter of the previous financial year 2023 24,
significantly contributing to the growth in operational income.
Export Snapshot:
The Company has recorded export revenue of 280.14 Crores in the current fiscal year, up
from 204.63 Crores in the previous year, marking a notable increase of 37%. The export
volume has risen to 10335 MT, compared to 7889 MT in the prior year, representing a growth
of 31%. This significant revenue and volume is primarily driven by the enhanced production
capacity resulting from the successful implementation of the Expansion Project in the last
quarter of the previous fiscal year. Exports constitute 46% of the total revenue of the
Company.
Export Growth:
In terms of revenue, your Company is increasingly focusing on expanding its presence in
export markets by entering new overseas territories and diversifying its product
portfolio, particularly with the introduction of "Compact Cotton Yarn". The
Company's cotton yarn is widely recognized and respected in the global market for its high
quality. This reputation is supported by our state-of-the-art technology, including USTER
LABORATORY equipment such as HVI-1000, AFIS PRO 2, UT-
5, UTR-4, and CLASSIMAT-5, ensuring that our yarn meets the highest standards and is
tailored to customers' specific requirements.
The consistent quality of our yarn has been a key driver of our growth in export
markets year after year. In FY 2022-23, the Company's export revenue was 135.64 Crores,
which increased to 204.63 Crores in FY 2023-24, and further rose to 280.14 Crores in FY

the operating profit (PBIDTA) has marginally improved from
10.37% to 10.85% in the current year.
The Cash Profit (PBDT) of the Company for the current year has increased to 34.69
Crores, compared to 30.10 Crores in the previous year, reflecting an increase of
approximately
15%. However, when compared to revenue, the PBDT growth has been subdued due to higher
provisions for depreciation and finance costs during the year. The finance cost has
significantly increased, doubling to 30.98 Crores in FY 2024-25, compared to 15.26 Crores
in the previous year, primarily due to the addition of a new term loan of 163.00 Crores
for the expansion project.
Similarly, depreciation for FY 2024-25 has increased to 16.79 Crores, compared to 9.29
Crores in the previous year. This increase is primarily due to higher provisions for
depreciationresultingfromtheimplementation of the Expansion Project, amounted to 218.00
Crores.
The performance of the First quarter of the year was satisfactory. However, from the
second quarter of the year due to Geopolitical situations, Global slowdown, and high
inflation rate resulted in low demand in the market due to which the margins remains under
pressure during the second and third quarter of the year. Despite the higher provision of
