Commenting on the performance for the quarter ended on 30.09.2020, Mr. Madhu Sudhan Bhageria, Chairman & Managing Director, Filatex, said, the company is witnessing an improvement in demand as the markets continues to recover from the slowdown caused by the pandemic. In September 2020, we achieved yarn capacity utilization of above 90%. Our EBIDTA % improved on a YoY basis from 7.69% to 8.77% due to an increase in the share of value-added products like drawn textured yarn.
Going forward, we expect further improvement in margins as the country returns to normalcy post the gradual relaxation of the lockdown. With the commencement of our DTY project on 31st August 2020, we expect our EBITDA margins to improve further.
We are currently in the process of setting up a 30 MW captive power plant at our Dahej unit. The project is well underway and we are targeting commissioning by April 2021. The annual impact of savings in energy costs, upon completion of the project, will be in the magnitude of Rs. 45 to 50 crores annually.
