According to India Ratings and Research (Ind-Ra) report published in December, Sanathan Textiles’ margin increased to 17.8% in the first half of FY 2022 owing to higher comprehension, lower raw material prices, and the management’s cost-reduction initiatives.
The company recorded operating earnings (Ebitda) of Rs 260.4 crore in 1HFY22 and the agency expects the same to be supported by higher volumes in FY22, with the completion of Capex in cotton yarn, industrial drawn yarn (IDY), and Sanathan  Polycot  Pvt Ltd (SPPL). “This will be the first IPO after a decade in the textile industry space,” a person close to the development said.
