Utilization constraints and jacket revenue share.
Asked by Ravi Sha, VRS Capital
Management clearly explained the constraint (SEZ shutdown) and confirmed jacket share increase is structural.
Read the exchange
Question
So currently government utilization current still remain at 65%. So what is currently the operational constraint that we are facing which limits this utilization that's number one and secondly our jackets and suits are now a larger share of our government revenue. So was this a seasonal impact or is this come some kind of structural improvement we are seeing
Management
this is also partly because we had shut down our capacities in Surat and that was the constraint that we were not able to use all of the capacities as we moved out of the SEZ there and the machines have not been yet moved out of the SCZ and started in a DTA as we are awaiting permission.

Impact of Mexico tariffs on Indian textiles and compensation.
Asked by Runit Kapoor, Industry Investments
Management directly clarified that the tariff does not apply to their products, so no impact.
Read the exchange
Question
I think Mexico has increase the tariffs on Indian textiles and I think has around 2025 crores exposure to Mexico. So how do you see it going down to zero or to what extent will it reduce and will you be able to compensate it from any other countries?
Management
for Mexico the tariff increase is not for poly viscos. It is only for polyester 100% polyester goods and most of the goods that we have been sending to Mexico are actually poly viscos or polywool and there that particular tariff increase does not apply. So we don't see any significant change there.

Plans for greenfield garmenting capacity given demand.
Asked by Runit Kapoor, Industry Investments
Management clearly stated no greenfield capex now, will use existing capacity to reach targets.
Read the exchange
Question
how's the company planning to leverage it? Are we willing to go the extra mile by doing a massive green field or an acquisition in governmenting?
Management
we are not making an additional capex there. What we are going to be doing is leveraging our own available capacities as we have always been saying to get to a turnover of 1,800 crores and reach a government turnover of 450 to 500 crores without increasing capacity is possible for us.

Management directly stated no major impact on Banswara, as they are in man-made textiles.
Read the exchange
Question
US is has come up with a revised trade agreement with Bangladesh and they offering 0% tariff on the fiber is imported from US. So I think is this only particularly for Bangladesh or like there was an interim agreement like where all countries could avail of the discount
Management
I don't see it affecting Bansswara in a major way. Maybe some of the cotton mills will be worried about this.
