Due to national lockdown and COVID-19 restrictions, the company's plants were shut for almost 8 weeks and upon resumption, were permitted to operate at an initial capacity of 30%. With a gradual increase in production, the company has finally achieved yarn capacity utilization exceeding 90% in September 2020.
Madhu Sudhan Bhageria, chairman & managing director, stated, Continuing the trend from Q3FY21, the prices and margins remained strong in the domestic market. Firm demand along with nearly full capacity utilization of value-added product contributed to the improvement in margins. Commissioning activities for our 30 MW captive power plant at our Dahej unit have started. Despite facing manpower constraints due to the second wave of COVID-19 in India, we are aiming to commission the power plant this month. The annual impact of savings in energy costs will be in the magnitude of Rs 45 crore.
Filatex India is in the business of manufacturing synthetic filament yarns having a wide range of products.
