Soaring cotton prices are spinning the spinners’ future out of control. Dipping cotton stock is adding to the woes. At this stage, a sharp drop in cotton prices is only a far cry, reveals an ITJ Exclusive Report. Cotton has never failed in the last one decade to kick up controversies with various interests getting down to a tug of war trying to call the shots. The year 2006 is no exception. The sharp rise of over 35 per cent in domestic cotton prices since May 2016 is certain to squeeze ginners and spinners profitability by over 15 per cent, says India Ratings and Research (Ind-Ra).

Groz-Beckert will be joining textile companies from all over the world to present products and solutions across the entire textiles value chain. The Knitting segment will be presented at ITMA Asia with a focus on productivity and profitability. One particular highlight will be the “transparent” large circular knitting machine, with a gauge gradient of E10 to E50. Two other “transparent” machines from the flat knitting and warp knitting fields will round off the product presentation. Each of the three acrylic glass machines has individually removable elements for detailed viewing.

The sharp rise of over 35 per cent in domestic cotton prices since May 2016 will squeeze ginners and spinners profitability by over 15 per cent, says India Ratings and Research (Ind-Ra). Ind-Ra expects prices to remain elevated around the current levels of Rs 120 per kg to Rs 127 per kg till the end of the cotton crop year of September 2016. The spike in cotton prices will adversely impact the profitability of pure cotton ginners and spinners due to their inability to pass on this steep increase to their customers, at once, due to decreasing cotton demand and increased competitiveness of manmade fibre.

In a textile unit, performance in some areas often remain unreported and thus goes unnoticed by the top management. Such areas are discussed by S Srinivasan, Retired Director (Operation), Bhojraj Ind Plc.

Many textile mills in India operate with a slender margin and thus there is a dire need to control various relatively smaller costs in a competitive environment where selling price is determined largely by the market. The utilisation of raw material, energy, labour and machinery are critical and hence always reported in comparison to the industry norms.

Rieter’s order intake increased by 32 per cent to CHF 510.7 million in the first half of 2016 (CHF 388.3 million in the first half of 2015), thanks in particular to stronger demand in the machinery business. As expected, order intake was thus significantly higher than sales of CHF 436.9 million (CHF 553.9 million in the first half of 2015). Rieter achieved EBITDA of CHF 34.4 million or 7.9 per cent of sales (CHF 66.0 million or 11.9 per cent of sales in the first half of 2015) due to good results of the Components and After Sales business groups. EBIT amounted to CHF 15.7 million while the EBIT margin was 3.6 per cent (CHF 46.1 million and 8.3 per cent respectively in the first half of 2015).
