Key Industry & Regulatory Updates:
● MEG anti-dumping duties were not imposed, supporting stable raw material pricing.
● Relaxation of QCO norms has led to higher imports, partially impacting margins.
● EPR and circularity norms continue to drive demand for recycled and traceable polyester products.
● The Union Budget 2026–27 strengthens policy support for man-made fibres and technical textiles through initiatives such as the National Fibre Scheme, Text-ECON, Mega Textile Parks and SAMARTH 2.0.
● The proposed India–EU FTA is expected to reduce/eliminate tariffs on textile and apparel exports, improving competitiveness in the European market.
● US import duties on Indian textile and apparel exports likely to be reduced to 18% from around to 25%, supporting export volumes and market access.
Commenting on the results, Mr. Madhu Sudhan Bhageria, Chairman & Managing Director, said:
“I am pleased to share that the Company delivered a strong performance during the quarter, with stable revenue, supported by constant volumes, improving margins, disciplined execution, and our continued shift towards higher- value products. This reflects the strength of our operating model and our ability to perform consistently in a dynamic environment.
Looking ahead, supportive policy measures, improving market access through recent India-EU FTA and sharp reduction in US tariffs, along with Europe’s sustainability-led sourcing shift are creating strong tailwinds for the Indian textile sector. With our scale, integrated manufacturing and early leadership in circular recycling, we believe Filatex is well positioned to benefit from these trends and drive sustainable long-term growth.”
