BUSINESS MODEL OUTLOOK AND REVIEW The management of your company has been continuously trying to pull the company out of this unwanted crisis position and taken various possible steps in this direction like putting application before BIFR, fighting against consortium Member banks Notice under SARFASAI Act in DRT, filling suits against Real Estate Collaborator RPS to extract cash flow out of this real estate transaction. But till date, there is no improvement in the situation. Company's application in BIFR and AAIFR has already been rejected. Now the only hope remained with the management of your company is to bring the real estate project collaborator RPS on the settlement table and pull out cash flows from it. Further in the Textile Segment, the operations are continuously going on but there are no sufficient means to exploit the available opportunities lying. But the Management of your company has not lost the last hopes and still trying to come out of this vicious circle. OPPORTUNITIES AND THREATS (SWOT ANALYSIS) In the mid-long term, the Indian textile industry is expected to grow very strongly with growth being balanced from both domestic consumption as well as exports demand. In the near-term, domestic demand is expected to grow strongly with the revival of the overall economy and improvement in purchasing power of Indian consumers. On the exports front, there are both opportunities and threats. Opportunities include the weak currency and decreasing cost competitiveness of China that are likely to give positive impetus to the Indian exports. At the same time, factors like structural impediments to industrial growth, volatile foreign exchange rates and increase in cotton and yarn prices are likely to negatively affect growth and profitability for the textile exports. The management of your company is trying to explore these opportunities but the internal financial crisis threat has pulled the legs of the management. Further the Management of your company is making utmost efforts to resolve the issues/disputes with RPS and realize revenue from IT project so that the liabilities can be reduced and interest burden may be relaxed on the operational results. |
