against Rs.149.40 lakhs in the previous year.
The demand for ‘C’ type Shuttle WeavingMachines is limited to specific applications such
as for weaving heavy sorts, industrial fabrics,
etc. and is unsteady. The continued import of
used Weaving Machines has further affected the
market. The steep increase in the price of cotton
and consequent fluctuation in the yarn prices
have also affected the weaving industry.

The sale of parts for Machine Tools includingTool Holders during the year has increased to
Rs.154.24 lakhs against Rs.88.66 lakhs in the
previous year. The prices offered are highly
competitive and are not remunerative. The
manufacture and sale of parts and job work
undertaken during the year was Rs.62.64 lakhs
against Rs.27.87 lakhs in the previous year.
Current Industrial Trend
The demand for Weaving Machines depends on
the growth of the textile Industry. The textile
Industry has been affected due to the steep
increase in the price of cotton, shortage of
power, labour, etc. The deferment of Technology
Upgradation Fund Scheme(TUFS) has also
affected the market for weaving machines.
