(A) CONSERVATION OF ENERGY
(a) Energy conservation measures taken:
The company continued its programme of optimizing energy consumption and energy conservation continued to be
accorded high prominence as in previous years. Besides regular audit schedules and company-wide suggestions for
energy saving, the following measures were undertaken during the year under review:
Reduction of lighting energy by using voltage regulator in lighting circuits
VAM of power plant power saving in screw chiller
Reduction of chemical consumption by using canal water
Rain water harvesting measures
Optimum Suction pressure used in OHTC Dust collector system in Spinning
Installation of inverters for pneumatic fans to optimize suction
Improvement of power factor to reduce max demand level
F.O. Emulsion fuel firing system introduced with the existing steam boiler installation resulting in savings of F.O.
Optimization of the feed pressure of soft water and reduction of the pumps
Thermal energy (Boiler) & water saving by recovery of condensate
Insulation and maintenance of heating devices like pipe & valve etc.
Heat recovery from Waste Dye liquor
Panel insulation of Air conditioned machine panels
Oxygen trimming in Thermopacs
(b) Additional Proposals being implemented for further conservation of energy:
More systematic installation of energy efficient equipments like Inverters, control sensors / meters, along with
energy efficient motors, tube light fixtures with electronic ballast to achieve the energy saving.
Installation of EMS Energy Monitor System so that greater accuracy of energy consumption reports can be obtained
RCR system being upgraded to maintain hot water temperature at 65 degree C thereby resulting in savings of fuel
All streetlights to be powered by solar energy system
Additional wet scrubber unit installation for present coal fired boiler for upgraded capacity utilization.
Heat recovery from hot exhaust air of Stenter and CRP hot water
Optimization of boiler blow down by installing auto blow down system
Installation of Air pre-heater of Thermopac
Installation of residual automatic moisture control system in vertical dyeing range to reduce steam consumption
and ensure better product quality
Water recovery from Blanket cooling of machines and from PSF and Softener
Optimization of soft water supply pressure to minimize wastage of water
Installation of cooling tower and screw chillers
(c) Impact of the measures at (a) and (b) for reduction of energy consumption and consequent impact on the cost of
production.
The measures stated in points (a) and (b) above would further improve the thermal, electrical and mechanical efficiency
of the Plants. The year 2009-10 saw significant reduction in energy cost over 2009 on a per unit basis.
Economic Overview
The world recovered faster than anticipated from the shocks of 2008 and 2009, in no small measure due to unprecedented
amounts of money being infused by various governments and central banks into the global economic system. From a de-
growth of 0.5% in 2009, world output in 2010 is expected to grow to an impressive 4.25%1. The progress, however, has not
been uniform and across the board. The US economy is now showing signs of recovery, with three straight quarters of de-
seasonalised growth. On the other hand, Europe, and especially the Euro zone, however, remains an area of concern. Greece
will need financial assistance totalling € 750 billion; Portugal and Spain also remain vulnerable. Any fiscal or budgetary
shocks to these economies may strain the Euro. Asian economies have, by and large, weathered the recessionary shocks
better, thanks to more robust domestic markets and prudent fiscal policies. These economies are off to a ‘fast start’ and are
expected to be the drive global economic growth in the near future.
Asia
The Asian economies have fared better than their Western
counterparts. With the exception of Japan, nearly all
emerging Asian countries, especially in South Asia and
South East Asia, are showing signs of economic recovery in
2009; the growth indicators for 2010 and 2011 are also quite
positive (Chart A).
In Asia, India and China have been economic growth drivers,
not just at the regional level but at the global level (Chart B).
China’s economy grew by a remarkable 8.7% during 2009,
when the rest of the world was struggling in the midst of one
of the worst global economic slowdowns. By Q4 2009, China
was back to double-digit growth. Q1 2010 saw accelerated
growth across all key sectors. Industrial production picked
up substantially, growing at 14.5% versus 5.3% during Q1
2009 and 9.5% for 2009 as a whole. Services grew at 10.2%,
versus 7.4% in Q1 2010 and 8.9% for 2009.
India
As per the statistics released by Government of India on
31 May 2010, India’s Q4 2009-10 GDP growth was 8.6%;
consequently, for 2009-10 as a whole, India’s GDP growth has
been estimated at 7.4%. Among the major economies, this is
the fastest growth rate, with the exception of China. What is
more encouraging about the growth is that a substantial part
of this has been contributed by the manufacturing sector.
Driven by continued domestic consumption demand and a
sharp increase in the level of exports, average IIP growth for
2009-10 was at 10.3%, a substantial improvement compared
to 2.8% growth witnessed in 2008-09. The April 2010 Index
of Industrial Production (IIP) continues the trend, reflecting
year-on-year growth of 17.6%, - the seventh month in
succession that the IIP has grown at a double digit rate.
Inflation, however, remains an area of concern. The
Wholesale Price Index (WPI) inflation in March 2010 touched
9.9%, the highest in the last 17 months. Consumer Price
Index (CPI) inflation is even higher – at around 14.8%. To
stabilise inflationary pressures and to reduce money supply,
the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has hiked its repo and
reverse repo rates, and also revised the cash reserve ratio
(CRR) upwards to 6%.

31 March 2010, compared to Rs. 20.81 crore during the
previous year, which is mainly on account of Exchange
Difference income of Rs. 58.03 crore realised during the
year.
Material Cost at Rs. 2,004.99 crore for the year,
represents 46.51% of sales – which was lower than
49.05% of sales during 2008-09. In spite of sales
having increased by 44.82%, material cost for the
year, in absolute terms, has increased by 37.31% (Rs.
1,460.17 crore in 2008-09). Over the past few years,
the Company has consistently reduced the costs of
input materials as a percentage to sales. This has been
achieved through a three-pronged approach: (a) buying
efficiencies, especially with regard to cotton buying; (b)
the economies of scale and backward integration; and
(c) a shift towards value added products.

People Cost. An increasing scale of operations has also meant that Alok has had to induct people across the board. The
Company’s total headcount as on 31 March 2009 was 15,172; this has now increased to 20,169 as on 31 March 2010.
As a consequence, people costs have risen 39.44% over the previous year to reach Rs. 153.73 crore for the year under
review (Rs. 110.25 crore in 2008-09). People cost as a percentage to sales, however, has dropped from 3.70% in 2008-
09 to 3.57% in 2009-10. It is expected that, as the benefits of the capacity expansions come on stream, this percentage
will further reduce.
Other Expenses for the year was at Rs. 943.99 crore, representing an increase of 56.10% over the previous year (Rs. 604.71
crore). Other Expenses constitute Factory Overheads and Selling & Administrative Overheads. Factory Overheads have
moved in line with the increase in sales volume; however; on the Administrative Overheads side, Legal and Professional
Charges and Bank Charges were the major contributors to the increase.
Interest and Finance Cost for 2009-10 stood at Rs. 535.08 crore (i.e. 12.41% of sales), compared to Rs. 304.12 crore
(10.22% of sales) during 2008-09. The increase in interest costs has mainly been on account of interest charges on
project assets, earlier capitalised and now being accounted for in the Profit & Loss Account. It is expected that interest
costs as a percentage to sales over the near future as sales increase; also benefits of the change in the capital structure
of the Company and consequent improvement in ratings are expected to reduce future interest outflows (see sections
on: ‘Change in the Capital Structure of the Company’ and ‘Ratings’).
Profit before Taxes (PBT). Alok’s PBT for the year ended 31 March 2010 was Rs. 374.79 crore, compared to Rs. 284.99
crore in the previous year. PBT as a percentage to sales is at 8.69% (9.57% of sales in 2008-09).
Profit after Taxes (PAT) for the year stood at Rs. 247.34 crore (2008-09: Rs. 188.37 crore).
The five year key numbers of the Company are depicted graphically in Charts F and G.
EBIDTA margin for the year increased to 29.52% (compared to 27.63% in 2008-09). The major contributor to this increase
was a reduction in material costs (from 49.05% of sales to 46.51% of sales). People costs of the also Company reduced
marginally; however, Other Expenses increased to 21.90% of sales, compared to 20.31% in 2008-09.
PBT margin reduced from 9.57% to 8.69%, mainly due to an increase in interest costs. PAT margin for 2009-10 is at 5.74%
vs. 6.33% in 2008-09.
Return on Net Worth (RONW). Alok’s Net Worth (including Deferred Tax Liability) has increased from Rs. 2,063.03 crore
as on 31 March 2009 to Rs. 3,123.17 crore as on 31 March 2010. This has been mainly on account of capital infusion
into the Company by way of a Rights Issue and a subsequent Qualified Institutional Placement. Consequently, in spite of
increased profits, the RONW has reduced from 9.13% to 7.92%. Going forward, with increased volumes and profitability,
RONW is expected to improve.
Return on Capital Employed (ROCE).The Company’s capital employed has increased from Rs. 7,183.56 crore as on 31
March 2009 to Rs. 9,559.88 crore as on 31 March 2010. ROCE, however, has improved to 9.52% in 2009-10 (8.20% in
2008-09).
Debt Equity (D/E) Ratio. Alok’s total debt (net of cash and bank balances) as on 31 March 2010 stands at Rs. 7,119.39
crore. With the increase in the Tangible Net Worth, the Company’s Debt Equity Ratio has reduced substantially – from
3.03 to 2.28. Similarly, Long Term Debt Equity Ratio has also reduced from last year’s level of 2.31 to 1.62 this year.
Acknowledging this fact, the Company’s long term rating has been enhanced from CARE A to CARE A+ (see section
on: ‘Ratings’).
Current Ratio for 2009-10 stands at 1.83, compared to 1.36 in 2008-09.
EBDITA to Interest Ratio (the interest coverage ratio) at 2.38 indicates adequate capability to service interest obligations.
Net Fixed Assets to Secured Loans has increased from 1.40 in 2008-09 to 1.47 in 2009-10, indicating higher cover for
secured loans.
During 2009-10, Alok generated Rs. 184.56 crore from its operating activities. Investment activities incurred a net outflow of
Rs. 1,749.28 crore. Financial activities, showed a surplus of Rs. 2,117.75 crore on account of increases in share application
money from the Rights Issue and the Qualified Institutional Placement made during the year. Year-end balance of cash and
cash equivalents stood at Rs. 1,390.29 crore, compared to Rs. 344.95 crore as on 31 March 2009. Table 4 gives the details.
As mentioned in the previous Management Discussion & Analysis, Alok had come out with a Rights Issue of 408,723,061
shares of face value of Rs. 10.00, each with a premium of Re. 1.00, which were offered in the ratio of 83 shares for every 40
shares, held, aggregating to Rs. 449.59 crore. The Issue opened on 31 March 2009 and closed on 22 April 2009 and was
oversubscribed 1.15 times. The allotment of shares and sending out of refund orders were completed by 5 May 2009.
During the year, Alok also came out with a Qualified Institutional Placement (QIP), wherein it allotted 182,100,248 equity
shares of the face value of Rs. 10/- for cash at a premium of Rs.13.32 per share aggregating to Rs. 424.66 crore to Qualified
Institutional Buyers. The issue was opened for subscription on 22 March 2010 and closed on 23 Mar 2010. The proceeds of
the proposed QIP issue has been utilised towards long term working capital margin, normal capex requirements and issue
expanses.
Consequent to the Rights Issue and the QIP, the Company’s equity share capital as on 31 March 2010 stands at Rs. 787.79
crore (including 22,316 Rights Equity Shares, partly paid-up to the extent of Rs.5 per Equity Share), compared to Rs. 196.97
crore as on 31 March 2009; this has resulted in an improvement of debt equity ratio of the Company.
Ratings
Alok’s bank facilities have been rated by CARE, a premium Indian rating agency. Based on the Company’s performance,
CARE has improved Alok’s rating from ‘CARE A’ to ‘CARE A+’ for its long term facilities. The rating implies that Alok offers
‘adequate safety for timely servicing of debt obligations’. Moreover, the Rating Committee of CARE has also re-affirmed a
‘PR-1’ rating for the Company’s short-term facilities. Facilities with this rating “would have strong capacity for timely payment
of short-term debt obligations and carry lowest credit risk”.
Investments
As on 31 March 2010, the Company had investments of Rs. 229.69 crore, compared to Rs. 478.58 crore as on 31 March
2009 (Table 5).
Alok’s exports are geographically well distributed, with exports being made to over 70 countries. 39.91% of Alok’s exports
are to the USA. Asian countries (27.92%), South America (14.08%) and Europe (13.53%) are the other export markets for
Alok. Over the recent past, Africa has shown promising growth prospects and is a potential growth market for Alok’s exports
(Chart J).
Divisional Performance
The division-wise sales of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2010 is given in Table 6.
Notes:
1. The Retail Operations of Alok has undergone a structural change to a ‘cash and carry’ model. Consequently, w.e.f.16 Dec 2009, retail
operations has been transferred from Alok Retail (India) Ltd. to Alok H&A Ltd.
2. Previous period figures have been re-grouped wherever necessary to being them in conformity with the current period’s figures
Alok produces a wide range of fabrics in both wovens and knits. As on 31 March 2010, the division had 808 apparel
weaving looms with a capacity of 93 million metres per annum, three continuous processing lines and one batch line with a
cumulative capacity of 105 million metres per annum. On the knits segment, Alok has knitting capacity of 18,200 TPA with
an equal amount of processing capacity and can produce 5,000 TPA of dyed yarn.
In 2009-10, Alok’s Apparel Fabrics division grew sales volume by 20.70% to reach Rs. 1,942.73 crore. Woven sales grew
23.20% over the previous year (Rs. 1,800.47 crore in 2009-10 vis-à-vis Rs. 1,461.58 crore in 2008-09); knits showed a
marginal decrease – from Rs. 147.98 crore in 2008-09 to Rs. 142.26 crore in 2009-10. With the capacity increases having
come on stream during 2009-10, Alok expects that sales of this division will grow in the near future.
To grow this division further and with greater profitability, Alok is focusing on three segments of the apparel fabric market: (a)
fashion wear; (b) yarn dyed fabrics; and (c) work-wear and technical textiles.
Alok produces a wide range of fashion wear fabrics in both knits and wovens. Fabric types include twills, voiles, cambrics,
poplins, Lycra poplins gabardines, jacquard, satins, matte, canvases, butta dobby, lawn, yarn dyed and many more. Selling
is mainly through five routes: (i) to international buyers and to converters who, after conversion of the fabric into garments,
sell to international brands; (ii) sales to domestic garment manufacturers, who in turn sell to domestic or international
brands; and (iii) sales to domestic retail chains and brands; (iv) sales through a distribution network to the domestic market;
and (v) institutional sales.
Within fashion-wear, the Company is focusing on yarn dyed fabrics, which are used for fashionable shirting and high end
women’s wear and command premium prices in the market. Alok has a capacity to produce 5,000 TPA of dyed yarn, which is
being further expanded. In the near future, the company plans to make yarn dyed fabric a major growth driver of its apparel
fabric sales.
Technical textiles are speciality fabrics, such as fire retardant fabric, water repellent and soil release fabric, high visibility
fabric, etc. They require special functionality and are used in industrial, aerospace, military, marine, medical, construction,
transportation and high technology applications. Due to their specialised nature, they offer higher margins than conventional
textiles.
Technical textiles in India are still at an early stage of development and are still mainly dominated by unorganized players;
however, there is growth potential for this business. The current market size is approximately Rs. 40,000 crore; demand is
expected to grow at 11% year-on-year to reach about Rs. 66,000 crore by 2012-13. Unlike the conventional textile industry in
India which is highly export intensive, the technical textile industry is an import intensive industry. Many products like baby
diapers, adult diapers, PP spun-bound fabric for disposables, wipes, protective clothing, hoses, webbings for seat belts, etc.
are imported to a very large extent8.
Workwear and technical textiles has been an area of focus in Alok for the last couple of years. The number of Indian
players in the technical textile segment is limited; hence, with an ‘early mover’ advantage, Alok expects that this business
will significantly increase in the near future. The Company is already supplying protective wear to defence forces; it also
supplies workwear and technical textiles to oil refineries, hospitals and large hotel chains. Moreover, Alok has also launched
a workwear and industrial wear brand – ‘Uniform 21’ – which it plans to sell both in India and overseas. The Company has
been taking help from internationally reputed technocrats in this field to develop its product range; it is also developing
proprietary brands for its specialised workwear.
A subsidiary of Alok, Mileta a.s. is one of the largest integrated textile enterprises in Europe. Located in the Czech Republic,
its product range includes shirting fabrics, table linen and bed linen. Most of its products are exported – mainly to countries
in Europe, North Africa, the Americas, the Middle East, the Far East and the Asia Pacific regions.
Mileta’s brands – Mileta, Erba, Cottonova, Lord Nelson and Wall Street – have high recall. Alok has launched some of these
brands – Erba (for handkerchiefs) and Lord Nelson (for premium shirting) – in the Indian market. Cottonova bed linen is now
also being manufactured in Alok’s plants and being exported.
The production stages now include yarn dyeing, weaving and finishing, which and are based on the newest technologies;
the plant has recently been modernised by installing 40 new Picanol airjet looms.
2009-10 has been a ‘turnaround’ year for Mileta. Production efficiencies have been ramped up, headcount has been
optimised and mid-line costs have been reduced. As a result, in spite of the slowdown in the European markets, Mileta
generated profit after taxes in Q4 of 2009-10; for the full year, it generated operating income before depreciation of CZK
8.01 million (Rs. 2.06 crores) on sales of CZK 462.46 million (Rs. 120.19 crores). With its strong product line and increasing
market spread, the prospects for growing sales and profitability for the coming years remain high.

Textiles
Alok’s Home Textiles division commands 16.41% of the total share of Alok’s sales. It is also the largest export revenue
generator for the Company, contributing 44.27% of the total exports. For the year ended 31 March 2010, Home Textiles
generated Rs. 707.26 crore in sales – a growth of 41.87% over the previous year (Rs. 498.54 crore).
Integrated Textile SolutionsTM 59
As with other divisions, Alok has expanded Home Textiles capacity significantly. Currently, the Company has 710 wider width
looms (capable of producing 68 million metres of fabric per annum); in addition, it has three continuous processing lines,
with a capacity of 82.5 million metres per annum. On the made-ups side, Alok has 948 machines that can produce 13.75
million pieces every year. During the year, the Terry Towel plant was also commissioned – this has 48 looms, capable of
producing 6,700 TPA and an equivalent amount of terry towel processing capacity.
The Home Textiles segment is witnessing tremendous growth – both in the overseas as well as the domestic markets. Alok’s
produces a wide range of sheets sets, duvets, comforters, blankets, quilts, bed in a bag and curtains in solids, dobbies,
jacquards, printed and embroidered of various thread counts and widths.
The addition of the terry towel plant will become a revenue multiplier for the division. The plant can supply zero twist, cotton
modal, sheared towels or yarn dyed sheared towels. With this plant, Alok is now geared to cater to the entire spectrum of
bed and bath linen.
The return of economic stability to a large number of Western economies has meant that home textile buying is steadily
increasing. Also, in order to optimise procurement and supply chain costs, global buyers are now concentrating on sourcing
their needs from a few, well-reputed textile manufacturers, from where they feel that quality supplies at desired volumes
can be assured. Alok has, over a period of time, developed the scale, size, quality and reputation and is now a preferred
vendor to a number of international buyers. The Company’s order book for Home Textiles is in a healthy position and the
division expects that that sales volumes and profitability will continue to increase in the near future/ To cater to this increasing
demand, Alok is also contemplating increasing capacities in wider width processing and terry towels.
Garments
During 2009-10, Alok’s Garments division increased production capacity to 22 Million pieces per annum from 15 million
pieces per annum as on 31 March 2009.
Sales for year were at Rs. 141.00 crore, an increase of 1.75% over the previous year (Rs. 138.58 crore). Exports contributed
to the majority share of sales for this division.
Garment sales, especially for exports, show encouraging growth potential. Alok is therefore looking at increasing capacities
through outsourcing, either directly or through its subsidiaries. These outsourcing opportunities exist both in India and
overseas, especially Bangladesh, where quality garments can be produced at competitive prices. The workwear segment
also offers opportunities for this division to grow profitably.
Alok Apparels Pvt. Ltd.
Alok’s 100% subsidiary, Alok Apparels Pvt. Ltd., manufactures woven and knit fashion garments at Silvassa. In 2009-10, the
unit achieved sales of Rs. 14.52 crore, compared to its previous year’s sales of Rs. 7.27crore. The business of this company
is expected to grow both through own manufacturing as well as outsourcing.
60 24 Annual Report 2009-10
Joint Venture with National Textile Corporation
Alok had entered into a Joint Venture Agreement with National Textile Corporation (NTC) for the development and revival of
New City Mills at Mumbai and Aurangabad Textile Mills at Aurangabad. Progress on this has been satisfactory – the units at
Aurangabad and Mumbai with 135 garmenting machines and 125 garmenting machines have been set up; a design studio
at New City Mills has also been established.
Polyester Yarn

During 2008-09, Alok’s Continuous Polymerisation (CP) plant went into full operation, which has increased POY capacity
to 200,000 TPA. A major of this POY is used for in-house consumption, converting it into texturised yarn; for which the
Company has 92 machines, with a capacity of 114,000TPA.
With the addition of the CP plant, the year under review has seen a quantum jump in the division’s sales – from Rs. 619.15
crore in 2008-09 to Rs. 1,193.08 crore in 2009-10 – a year-on-year growth of 92.70%. Growth rates have been more or less
even across both the domestic and the export segments, which have grown by 90.48% and 101.42%, respectively.
Demand for polyester fibre is expected to grow. During 2009, polyester textile yarn production at a global level grew by 6.7%
to 18.2 million tonnes, led largely by Asian economies9. While China continues to have the maximum share of production and
is planning capacity expansions, the country’s consumption of polyester yarn is also rising sharply. Hence, the opportunities
for growth are substantial – not only for internal consumption, but for domestic and overseas demand, mainly to Europe,
Middle East and Latin America. To tap these growing markets, Alok is in the process of installing a second CP plant, with
200,000 TPA capacity, which has the capacity to produce a variety of advanced products, such as dope dyed yarn, industrial
yarn, etc. The Company’s expansion of 72,000 TPA of Fully Drawn Yarn (FDY) is nearing completion; the new CP plant is
also expected to be commissioned in 2010-11.
Capacity Expansion
All projects under Phase III and IV have been completed; the completion certificates for the same have been circulated to the
bankers and financial institutions. Table 12 details the final status of projects as on 31 March 2010.
The Retail Operations of Alok Industries Ltd. had been transferred to Alok Retail (India) Ltd. w.e.f. 1 December 2008;
subsequently, w.e.f.16 December 2009, the business has been transferred to Alok H&A Ltd. where a ‘cash and carry’ model
has been adopted.
Alok H&A Ltd. currently has 226 stores across India; the company expects to reach a total of 400 shops by the end of March
2011. The stores are operated on a ‘franchisee basis’; where capital costs are limited. Apart from the standard format stores,
which are usually 800 square feet to 1,000 square feet in size, the company is also looking at larger format stores upto 2,500
square feet to accommodate all our categories – men’s, ladies, children’s clothes, home furnishings and accessories.
For the year ended 31 March 2010, Alok H&A Ltd. had sales of Rs. 37.49 crore, with a PAT of Rs.0.58 crore.
The Group’s retail operations in the UK are being managed under Grabal Alok (UK) Ltd. (GAUKL), which runs 212 stores
across England, Scotland and Wales. The stores offer a complete range of quality products for men, women, children, home
furnishings, home wear and accessories at affordable price points. Originally branded as ‘qs’ stores, these are now gradually
being given a new brand identity: ‘Store Twenty One’. The repositioning and rebranding initiative looks at transforming the
stores from a place where people bought ‘value conscious’ clothes to a place where people would indulge in ‘smart buying’.
For the financial year ended 31 Mar 2010, GAUKL reported sales of £ 98.76 million (Rs. 749.43 crore), compared to sales of £
91.30 million (Rs. 665.24 crore) during 2008-09, a growth 8.17% in GBP terms. At a PBT level, the company has substantially
improved its performances, reduced losses from £ 21.74 million (Rs. 158.41 crore) in 2008-09, to a loss (£ 6.40 million (Rs.
48.53 crore) in the current year.
This improvement in performance has been brought about due to a series of initiatives that GAUKL has undertaken during
the year.
A number of stores have been refurbished, with a new ‘look and feel’ about them; some of these stores are also being
moved to better locations.
Sourcing offices have been set up in China, India and Bangladesh in order to procure ‘low cost, high value’ clothing and
apparel products from these countries.
Cost reduction measures have been undertaken for payroll, rents and HO expenses.
Costs of warehousing and distribution have been reduced; fleet operations have been optimised and picking operations
improved significantly.
The introduction of two shifts and night delivery to stores has meant that stocks are sold faster and appropriate ‘high
turnover’ stocks are available at the stores; the re-order process has also been revamped in order to react faster to
customer needs.
In 2010-11, the company wishes to expand its footprint to about 240 stores; simultaneously, the rebranding exercise aims
at converting 80% of the store network to the ‘Store Twenty One’ format by the end of the year. These are expected to boost
topline growth, especially given the fact that the refurbished and rebranded stores have shown as much as 50% improvement
in their sales figures. Cost and operating efficiency optimisation measures are also expected to continue through the year.
With the UK economy coming back on the path of recovery, consumer spending is expected to grow; GAUKL is now
positioning itself to take advantage of this growth and improve sales and bottomline during the next year.
Operations & Investments: Realty
Alok’s realty operations and investments are controlled through two wholly owned subsidiaries – Alok Infrastructure Ltd. and
Alok Land Holdings Pvt. Ltd. As on date, the ventures are involved in three major realty projects. The details of the projects
are given in the subsequent paragraphs.

Alok has been at the forefront of promoting the use of organic cotton in its products. ‘Organic cotton’ is cotton grown
without the use of harmful pesticides and chemical fertilisers, which deplete natural resources and make the land fallow
after repeated use. The Company has tied up with a reputed Small Farmers’ Organisation (SFO) in this regard. Through this
initiative, farmers in the Vidharbha region of Maharashtra and the Adilabad region of Andhra Pradesh are being educated
on how to grow cotton, using natural fertiliser and natural pesticides. Farmers under this programme will completely switch
over to growing cotton organically within four years. Meanwhile, the Company not only helps farmers to make the transition,
with inputs and active assistance from the SFO, but also commits to purchasing agreed upon quantities of lint at fair and
sustainable prices, which are to the extent of between 8,000 and 10,000 tonnes of fibre per annum. This allows the farmer to
move over to growing organic cotton without suffering economic hardship due to lower yield per acre during the transition
phase.
Moreover, Alok has been also involved at an international level in the organic cotton movement. Organic cotton grown in Burkina
Faso is being converted to yarn and fabric by the Company; garment converters then convert the yarn into garments for shipping
to high end European and American brands in Europe and the USA. These garments usually command a premium price in the
market; a portion of this premium also percolates down to the farmers, thus improving their economic well-being.

Training and Employment of Tribal Women
The locations where Alok has its operations has a large tribal
population, most of them economically disadvantaged.
To create wealth and improve the standards of living of
this community and simultaneously empower women,
the Company has been training local tribal women for its
weaving, made-ups and garmenting plants; about two
thousand tribal women have been trained and have been
productively employed.
Water conservation and recycling is a major feature of the Company’s commitment to sustain and renew scarce natural
resources. Alok’s manufacturing practices have been aligned in a way that environment and sustainability concerns are
adequately addressed. In the dyeing process, where chemical effluents can despoil the quality of the water, Alok uses
eco-friendly dyes. It also makes certain that the post-dyeing effluent water is suitably treated before being released back
into the environment as ‘near potable’ water. To do so, the Company operates one of Asia’s largest Effluent Treatment
Plants (ETP), which recycles effluent laden water through primary, secondary and tertiary treatment mechanisms to ensure
that solid wastes are minimised before the water is released. To reduce the depletion of groundwater usage, Alok has
installed Reverse Osmosis (RO) units at its plants; these recover fresh water from the treated water; simultaneously, steam
condensate recovery ensures that groundwater depletion is further reduced. Further, Alok has initiated rainwater harvesting
initiatives at all its plants to ensure that the groundwater used in production is replenished.
In addition, for its polyester division, the Company has installed polyester recycling plant that uses waste polyester products
to produce fibre for spinning and wadding. Moreover, Alok has also put into place a programme for recycling plastic, where
all plastic waste is sent out for recycling and then brought back into the plant as packing material, bags and wrapping rolls.
At Alok, air pollution is minimised through Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) systems in the exhaust of DG sets, which
reduce oxides of nitrogen. In order to use cleaner fuel sources, the Company has switched over from furnace oil to natural
gas at Vapi; the Silvassa plants are expected to follow suit shortly, once gas supplies are ensured. Even where fuel oil is
being used, Alok has switched over to a ‘cleaner’ low sulphur fuel oil. Flue gas heat from the Company’s captive power plant
is used for steam generation, thereby reducing heat wastage.
All plants of the Company have dedicated green zones – both within the plant premises and in the adjoining areas. Over a
period of time, Alok has planted over 11,000 trees in and around its plants in order to create a sustainable ‘green cover’; this
initiative will continue in the future as well.
Education
During the year under review, Alok’s CSR initiatives in
education have been noteworthy. Alok has jointly with DyStar
India Private Limited, a leading dyestuff, auxiliaries and
service provider to the textile industry, set up an ‘Advanced
Academy for Development of Textile Technologists (AADTT).
The Academy is the first-of-its-kind in the country and an
unparalleled knowledge based training platform to facilitate
skill development in the textile industry. AADTT will provide
the platform for identification, training, placement and career
development of textile professionals to raise standards of
textile manufacturing in India.
Candidates are hand picked from premier partnering institutes, trained for a period of one year and offered back to the textile
industry. During the period they are at the Academy, candidates are being paid ‘market level’ stipends and trained through
a well designed curriculum combining theory, specific application expertise and practice relevant and adapted to modern
industrial needs. Renowned and experienced industrial experts will be working with the team as faculties. The Academy is
located at Rabale and practical training for the selected candidates is being given at Alok’s plants in Vapi and Silvassa.
68 24 Annual Report 2009-10
The Company is at an advanced stage of setting up a primary and secondary school under the CBSE / ICSE curriculum
at Silvassa, which should cater to approximately one thousand children. The school building is ready for occupation; the
formalities of appointing the teaching and support staff are underway.
In addition to the AADTT and the school at Silvassa, Alok, in a ‘private-public-partnership’ model is also working with local
governments in Vapi and Silvassa to upgrade government Industrial Training Institutes (ITI) into centres of excellence.
The Company has been also participating in free mid-day meal distribution schemes with schools where economically
disadvantaged children are educated.
Alok encourages initiatives that set up or renovate educational infrastructure. Renovations of rural primary and secondary
schools, setting up of new education centres, training laboratories and the like are some of the initiatives in which Alok is
actively involved. The Company is also setting up ‘Anganwadis’ for the education and welfare of pre-primary school rural
children.
Infrastructural Development
Alok is involved with the local communities in improving infrastructure in and around the plants. The Company helps in
building, repairing and maintaining health centres and community halls; it is also involved construction of tar roads in the
adjoining villages at Vapi and renovation of bus shelters and police stations.
Information Technology
Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP)
Alok’s data and IT processing backbone is the SAP ERP platform, on which it runs six modules: Sales & Distribution,
Production & Planning, Materials Management, Quality Management, Plant Maintenance and Finance & Costing. During
the year, the Company undertook a number of initiatives on the ERP side, both to increase its scope and its efficiency
parameters.
The Company is in the process of migrating to a more current version of SAP, i.e. SAP ECC 6. To optimise the SAP platform,
the Company has migrated from Oracle 9i to the newer Oracle 10g. The database migration for SAP ECC 6 has been
completed and optimised.
To allow wider usage of SAP, 450 additional licenses were procured for new users across various plants and offices. At the
same time, two new higher-configuration servers have been added to SAP landscape, thus improving the performance and
response time.
The other significant initiative in SAP that Alok has undertaken during year is starting the implementation and optimisation
of the Advanced Planning Optimiser (APO) module. The APO module allows seamless end to end IT and transaction
management across the planning process (i.e. supply chain planning, demand planning and production planning). The APO
implementation at Alok is a pioneering case: there is no implementation reference of an APO module in an integrated textile
company. Alok is working with globally reputed consultants in this exercise. The detailed evaluation has been completed
and the project has reached the ‘blue print’ stage. It is expected that the module will be implemented and stabilised in 2010-
11. As part of this initiative, the Company is also evaluating certain specialised customisations, including a switch over to a
Variant Configuration for the Material Master in order to optimise material master growth.
Three other major initiatives are planned for roll out during 2010-11, the preliminary work for which was done in 2009-10, with
the help of renowned external consultants. These are:
Business Planning and Consolidation (BPC): for MIS consolidation, Accounts consolidation and IFRS reporting (which
is mandatory from 2010-11).
The New GL initiative – which gives financial data by profit centre and cost centre.
The Human Capital Management (HCM) module implementation in SAP.
Alok’s SAP implementation has been recognised by SAP as a reference case for textile industries. To quote their report:
“The company has extracted significant potential from the SAP software, which in turn has
contributed to better management of order-to-cash and procure-to-pay cycles. As a result, Alok
Industries is one of the best reference sites for SAP ERP in the Indian textile industry, proving that
a standard ERP package that is implemented, used, and managed well can address the industry’s
inherent operational complexities.”
Communications and Connectivity
Alok has a robust and extensive communication network that encompasses voice, data and video across all its locations.
The communications network is through Multi-protocol Label Switching Virtual Private Network (MPLS VPN); measures have
been adopted during the year to ensure maximum uptime. In spite of the bandwidth being enhanced and the communications
network being reached out to a wider area, costs have been optimised by over 25%, thanks to strong vendor negotiations.
During the year, on the communications side, the Company implemented and stabilised the Lotus Notes and Blackberry
enterprise servers.

Data Security & Disaster Recovery
To ensure data security and allow speedy data recovery in case of a disaster, Alok has adopted the following measures:
The Disaster Recovery (DR) server for SAP data has been relocated to Vapi with dedicated bandwidth; the data transfer
mechanism has also been optimised. DR processes have been tested in a live environment; there has been no data
loss; measures are being put in place to improve ‘speed of response’; also, measures to prevent controllable disasters
(power, temperature, humidity, etc) are being put into place.
To prevent hardware damage and failure due to power failures, changes in atmospheric conditions, etc, Alok has installed
a pilot system that sends out alerts when atmospheric deviation (temperature, humidity, etc) or power fluctuation takes
place in the IT area. Also, state of the art UPS systems and fire detection and prevention systems have been put in place.
A full scale DR and Business Continuity mechanism is now being evaluated and is expected to be in place by 2010-11.
To secure the data from malware, virus or such similar attacks, Alok has installed a state-of-the art anti-virus application.
To ensure that data is backed up regularly and is available for restoration in case of a disaster, Alok has implemented a
best-in-class ‘Tivoli’ back-up solution for SAP for its Data Centre.
To optimise data performance, Alok has adopted an ‘Open Text’ solution that archives historical data. A pilot run is
currently being done; the full roll out is expected to be implemented this year.
Risk Management
Risk Management Methodology
Alok has a formal Risk Management (RM) framework, which has been refined over a period of time as the operations have
diversified and grown in scope and complexity. During the current year, Alok has been working with globally reputed external
consultants in order to redefine its RM framework in line with its vision, mission and business strategy.
Alok mitigates the risk of cotton price fluctuations in two ways. First, it buys cotton in bulk quantities during the buying season,
when quality, availability and costs are favourable. Second, given that the price rise of cotton is a global phenomenon, it is
able to pass on the increase to the customer.
PTA and MEG Purified Terephthalic Acid (PTA) and Mono Ethylene Glycol (MEG) are the core inputs that go into the
manufacture of POY and polyester yarn. Being petrochemical products, prices of PTA and MEG fluctuate in line with
fluctuations in crude oil prices.
Presently, international crude oil prices are soft and it is estimated that they would move within a narrow price band, as would
PTA and MEG. Polyester being a cheaper input for textiles compared to cotton, the demand for polyester has been growing
rapidly over the past few years and the trend is expected to continue. Under the scenario, Alok is confident that it will be able
to pass on the incremental cost of raw material input to the end customer.
Fuel
Power and fuel are major manufacturing costs while producing textiles. Any increase in these costs has a negative impact
on Alok’s bottomline. Over the past year, tariff prices for power have been increasing. The Company’s dual fuel captive
power plant uses helps to mitigate some of the power cost risk. In order to reduce the impact of rising fuel costs, Alok has
been actively exploring opportunities to switch over to a cheaper fuel source. The Company’s plants at Vapi have already
running on natural gas; it is expected that the same initiative will be completed in 2010-11 for Silvassa. Once the switchover
is completed and stabilised, there will be substantial savings in fuel costs; availability of fuel will also be less of a risk.
Markets
Alok’s sales are subject to market demands. The Company has a mix of domestic and export sales; Alok’s exports are to
over 70 countries. The status and risk of major economies where Alok sells its products are given below.
USA
The US economy has started to climb back from recession. Latest US economic data indicate three straight quarters of de-
seasonalised growth. As the economy recovers further, consumer and household spending is also expected to increase.
39.91% of Alok’s total exports are to the USA; however, the Company has been actively exploring other lucrative export
markets, especially in Asia, Middle East and South and Central America; which together have a 43.31% share of Alok’s
exports. Africa, which has also recovered well from the recession, also offers Alok growth opportunities in the export market.
Global economies are returning to growth and increasing consumer demand. The US has reported growth for three
successive quarters. Growth in Asian economies is starting to reach pre-recession levels. India’s growth is being driven
by its manufacturing output; with a normal monsoon in 2010-11, India is expected to be back on a high growth trajectory.
With a large population, smaller and more nuclear households, increasing disposable income and the Indian’s increasing
propensity to spend, demand for basic and consumer goods is expected to multiply in the near future.
Textiles
According to the Ministry of Textiles, cloth production grew by 8.3% during 2009-10. The latest IIP data available shows that
cotton textiles registered a growth of 5.5% in 2009-10; textile products, including wearing apparel, reflected 8.5% growth.
Moreover, the technical textile segment is growing rapidly. The current market size in India of approximately Rs. 40,000 crore
is expected to increase to about Rs. 66,000 crore by 2012-13. All of these indicate a growing demand for Indian textiles and
apparel, both in the domestic and in the exports market.
During April 2009 to January 2010, India recorded textile exports of US$ 18.6 billion, compared to US$ 17.7 billion during the
same period of the previous year. Indian textile and apparel exports are expected to increase in the near future due to two
major reasons: (a) global buyers preferring to de-risk the country exposure in their buying patterns; and (b) the appreciation
of the Chinese yuan.
In the recent past, global brands have been sourcing as much as 40% of their purchases from China. With the appreciation of
the yuan, Indian exporters will be able to compete on a level playing field; also, buyers are now wary of an over dependence
on one country for their purchasing. India, which commands about 4% of the global textile and apparel exports trade, offers
a good sourcing alternative. Within India, global textile and apparel buyers are also reducing the number of suppliers from
whom they source materials, preferring to consolidate their purchases with a few suppliers; thus reducing supply chain costs
and quality variations. Textile players who have capacities to deliver large volumes of high quality textiles and apparel, are,
therefore, expected to benefit.
For Alok, these factors represent growth opportunities. With global scale of operations, a well-deserved reputation for quality
and price competitiveness brought about by its integration and presence across the textile value chain, Alok can and does
offer world class quality products at extremely competitive prices, adhering to tight delivery schedules – and, moreover,
flexible enough to adapt to the customer’s quickly changing needs.
Alok has, over the past few years, built scale of manufacturing operations, diversified its product portfolio and increased
the spread and depth of its markets. With the major expansions having been completed in 2009-10, Alok is now in a
consolidation phase, ready to reap the benefits of scale, product range, operating efficiencies and geographical reach that
it has assiduously built up over the recent past.
Retail
The Q3 2010 Business Monitor International (BMI) India Retail Report forecasts that total retail sales in India will grow US$
353 billion in 2010 to US$ 543 billion by 2014, driven by strong economic growth, population expansion, the increasing
wealth of individuals and the rapid construction of organised retail infrastructure. Retail growth is now expected to percolate
to Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities; with average GDP growth till 2014 pegged at around 7.8%, per capita spending is expected to
increase from US$793 in 2010 to US$ 1,160 in 2014. The growth in the overall retail market will be driven largely by the
explosion in the organised retail market. Domestic retailers are expected to continue to invest in increasing store networks
and improving in-store offerings; it is also expected to be boosted by the arrival of expansion-orientated multinationals.12
Alok’s domestic retail foray is through its subsidiary, Alok H&A Ltd., which now manages 226 stores through a ‘cash and
carry’ model. Expansion of the store network being through franchisees has lowered the capital outlay for store expansion.
The stores offer apparel, accessories and home furnishings for a segment of customers who appreciate quality offerings at
sensible prices. Alok plans to rapidly roll out its network over the next few years and sees significant growth and profitability
opportunities in an expanding domestic retail market. Once the network reaches a critical size, Alok plans to roll out a major
branding exercise for its H&A outlets.
Note:
Mr. K.R. Modi is a senior partner of M/s. Kanga & Co., Solicitors and Advocates, who have a professional relationship
with the Company. The quantum of professional fees received by M/s. Kanga & Co. from Alok Industries Ltd. constitutes
less than 2% of the total revenues of the legal firm. The Board of Directors of Alok Industries Ltd. is of the view that the
association of the legal firm with the Company is not material. The professional fees of Rs. 389,525/- paid to the legal firm
during the year ended 31 March 2010 are not considered material enough to impinge upon the independence of Mr. K .R.
Modi.

To The Members
Alok Industries Limited
1] We have audited the attached Balance Sheet of Alok Industries Limited (“the Company”), as at 31 March 2010, the Profit
and Loss Account and also the Cash Flow Statement for the year ended on that date annexed thereto. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audit.
2] We conducted our audit in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in India. Those Standards require
that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures
in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit
provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
3] As required by the Companies (Auditor’s Report) Order, 2003 as amended by the Companies (Auditor’s Report)
(Amendment) order, 2004 (“the Order”) issued by the Central Government of India in terms of sub-section (4A) of
section 227 of the Companies Act, 1956 (“the Act”), we enclose in the Annexure a statement on the matters specified in
paragraphs 4 and 5 of the said Order.
4] Further to our comments in the Annexure referred to in paragraph 3 above, we report that:
(i) We have obtained all the information and explanations, which to the best of our knowledge and belief were
necessary for the purposes of our audit;
(ii) In our opinion, proper books of account as required by law have been kept by the Company so far as appears from
our examination of those books;
(iii) The Balance Sheet, Profit and Loss Account and Cash Flow Statement dealt with by this report are in agreement
with the books of account;

aggregating to Rs.79.37 crore, considered good for the reasons stated in the note.

in connection with share, debenture and foreign currency convertible bonds. The earlier policy of adjusting
it against the Securities Premium Account has been changed this year to writing it off in to the Profit & Loss
Account, resulting in the profits before tax for the year being lower by Rs. 40.43 crores.
(viii) In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the said accounts
read together with the notes thereon and subject to the effect of the matters stated in para (vii) above, give

Sheet date, Actuarial gains/losses are recognised in Profit and Loss Account in the period of occurrence of such
gains and losses. Past service cost is recognised immediately to the extent benefits are vested otherwise it is
amortized on straight line basis over running average periods until the benefits become vested. The retirement
benefit obligation recognised in Balance Sheet represents present value of the defined benefit obligations as
adjusted for unrecognised past service cost and as reduced by fair value of scheme assets. Any asset resulting
from this calculation is limited to past service cost, the present value is available refunds and reduction in future
contribution to the scheme.

Borrowing costs that are attributable to the acquisition or construction of qualifying assets are capitalised as part of
the cost of such assets. A qualifying asset is one that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its
intended use or sale. All other borrowing costs are charged to revenue.
14. Income taxes
Tax expense comprises of current tax, deferred tax and fringe benefit tax (FBT). Current tax and deferred tax are
accounted for in accordance with Accounting Standard 22 (AS-22) on “Accounting for taxes on Income”. Current tax is
measured at the amount expected to be paid / recovered from the tax authority using the applicable tax rates. Deferred
tax assets and liabilities are recognised for future tax consequence attributable to timing difference between taxable
income and accounting income that are capable of reversing in one or more subsequent periods and are measured
at relevant enacted/ substantively enacted tax rates. At each balance sheet date, the Company reassesses unrealised
deferred tax assets to the extent they become reasonably certain or virtually certain of realisation, as the case may be.
FBT is recognised in accordance with the relevant provision of Income-tax Act, 1961 and the Guidance Note on FBT
issued by ICAI. Minimum Alternate Tax (MAT) credit entitlement is recognised in accordance with the Guidance Note

Act 1972 from Rs.3.50 Lakhs to Rs.10 Lakhs has been passed by both houses of Parliament in May 2010 and will come
into effect from a date to be notified by the Central Government. Since the said Bill has been substantively enacted, the

in the maximum limit under the Act, the profit after tax for the current year is lower by Rs.0.83 crore.
14 Segment Reporting
a) Primary Segment: Geographical Segment
The company, considering its high level of international operations and present internal financial reporting based
on geographical location of customer, has identified geographical segment as primary segment.
The geographic segment consists of:
a) Domestic (Sales to Customers located in India)
b) International (Sales to Customers located outside India)
Revenue directly attributable to segments is reported based on items that are individually identifiable to that
segment. The company believes that it is not practical to allocate segment expenses, segment results, fixed
assets used in the company’s business or liabilities contracted since the resources/services/assets are used
interchangeably within the segments. Accordingly, no disclosure relating to same is made

are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by the management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that
our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
3. We report that the consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company’s management in accordance
with the requirements of Accounting Standard (AS) 21 “Consolidated Financial Statements”, Accounting Standard (AS)
23 “Accounting for Investments in Associates in Consolidated Financial Statements” and Accounting Standard (AS) 27
“Financial Reporting of Interest in Joint Venture”. as notified by the Company (Accounting Standards) Rules 2006.
4. We did not audit the financial statement reflecting total assets (net) of Rs 2157.37 Crore, total revenues (net) of
Rs. 447.55 Crore and net cash outflows of Rs. 43.59 Crore of subsidiaries, share of loss (net) of Rs 20.70 Crore in
Associates and further includes total assets (net) of Rs.75.53 Crore total revenues of Rs. 173.91 Crore and net cash
outflow of Rs. 46.73 Crore of Joint Venture as referred to in Note No. 1, 2 and 3 respectively of Part B of schedule 19,
which have not been audited by us. These have been audited by other auditors whose reports have been furnished to
us, and our opinion so far as it relates to the amounts included in respect of these entities, is based solely on reports
of those respective auditors.
5. During the year, the Company changed its Accounting Policy pertaining to adjusting issue expenses incurred
in connection with share, debenture and foreign currency convertible bonds. The earlier policy of adjusting
it against the Securities Premium Account has been changed this year to writing it off in to the Profit & Loss
Account, resulting in the profits before tax for the year being lower by Rs. 40.43 crore.
6. Based on our audit, and on consideration of report of other auditors on separate financial statements / management
certification and on the other financial information of the components, and to the best of our information and according
to the explanations given to us, we are of the opinion that the attached consolidated financial statements, read together
with para 4 above and subject to the effect of the matters stated in para 5 above, give a true and fair view in
conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in India:
(a) in the case of the Consolidated Balance Sheet, of the state of affairs of the Group as at 31 March 2010;
(b) in the case of the Consolidated Profit and Loss Account, of the profit for the year ended on that date; and
