Polyester prices rolled over for July 2012

By Our Staff Reporter MUMBAI, JULY 01 The polyester spinners have rolled over the prices of polyester staple fibre (PSF) and partially oriented yarn (POY) for July deliveries. The roller move of the polyester spinners will bring in stability to the downstream industry. It may be noted here that the spinners were contemplating to hike polyester prices by Rs. 1 to Rs. 2 per kg. when international prices of Px/ PTA/MEG increased after 20 June 2012 onwards. However, the roll over augurs well for the industry. With regard to VSF, the prices are likely to be rolled over. It may be noted here that late last month (June 2012), VSF prices were reduced by Rs. 6 to Rs. 7 per kg.

Arvind mill workerss strike likely to end

AHMEDABAD, JULY 01 A strike by workers of Arvind mill, which has been on for over three weeks, is likely to end soon, as the management has offered to take back its sacked employees. During negotiations with the representatives of the Textile Labour Association (TLA), the management of Arvind group agreed to take back the workers from tonight, Arvinds spokesperson said. The TLA today brought 50 representatives of Arvind as well as Ankur mills striking workers to meet the management of Arvind. These representatives requested the management to take back all the terminated workers, a statement said. Arvind group will withdraw the termination of all these employees, but they will hold an enquiry against the striking workers, it said. We have negotiated with the mill management to take back all the workers including those terminated, to which they have agreed. If the workers re-join duty from tonight, the strike shall end, else it shall continue, General Secretary of TLA Amar Barot said. TLA, after being empowered by the representative board, held negotiations with the mill management. Subject to joining of workers, further round of negotiations with the Ahmedabad Textile Mills Association (ATMA) over interim relief will continue, Barot said. The proposal for interim relief is under their consideration, and a decision on it could be expected within a short period, he said.

Labour situation improves; liquidity remains tight

By Madhav Risbood Labour situation in the Surat industry has improved, but the same cannot be said of liquidity. Huge investments in real estate have dried up the flow of money in the local markets. However, with good rainfall and some firm policy announcements from the Indian Government, one hopes that the year ends on a better note. On the polyester fron, June 2012 witnessed a very confusing scenario in terms of marketing policies by polyester filament yarn suppliers. The month opened with roll over prices of May for POY, which were immediately revised by Rs. 3 per kg. on the SURAT DIARY down side. In the same week further reduction of Rs 3 per kg. was announced by a leading supplier. However market leader, refused any change and tried to control the panic situation. Texurisers were however forced to follow market demands and were already passing on the Rs to Rs 8 per kg. reduction to their customers. Yarn consumers are keenly following the developments and await policies for July. Towards the end of May, fabric demand had started moving towards a positive change, but due to the sudden revision in yarn prices, the entire month of June ended with some very cautious purchasing by buyers. The sharp decline in crude & raw material prices world wide had prompted the spinners to readjust the prices. It is expected that swift & honest price correction, wherever logical, would help towards early stabilization of the markets. It is indeed necessary to do so, in the larger interest of giving an opportunity for SME business to earn in the only important and reliable season of the year. July/Aug/Sept is the time when festive season starts with Ramzan/Durga Pooja/Navratri and leads to Diwali. With marriage season in Nov/Dec, this year, it could be a good period, if long term policies are put into place.

The weekly average was down from 70.28 cents last week, and from 134.49 cents reported the corresponding period a year ago. Daily average quotations ranged from a high of 68.72 cents on Monday, June 25 to a low of 65.22 cents on Wednesday, June 27. Spot transactions reported in the Daily Spot Cotton Quotations for the week ended June 28 totaled 649 bales. This compares to 10,346 bales last week and 467 bales reported a year ago. Total spot transactions for the season were 875,366 bales, compared to 643,892 bales the corresponding week a year ago. The ICE October settlement prices ended the week at 69.51 cents, compared to 67.25 cents last week. SOUTHEASTERN MARKETS Spot cotton trading was slow. Supplies were light. Demand was moderate. Producer offerings were light. Average local spot prices were lower. Trading of CCC-loan equities was inactive. No forward contracting activity was reported. Tropical Storm Debby made landfall on the Northwest Coast of Florida early in the period and brought days of drenching rain and flash flooding to the area before drifting back out to the open Atlantic midweek. Feeder bands brought locally heavy showers of five to seven inches to portions of the cotton growing regions of the Florida Panhandle and south Georgia. Southwest Georgia and the western Florida Panhandle received trace amounts to around two inches of scattered precipitation. Localized showers brought one to two inches of rainfall to areas of the eastern Carolinas. Hot, dry conditions persisted elsewhere in the region with daytime temperatures in the low to mid90s. The balance of cotton was squaring in Alabama and Georgia according to the National Agricultural Statistics Service Crop Progress report. In these areas, the earliest planted fields were blooming and boll-setting was getting underway. Squaring advanced to 45 percent in Virginia, 23 in South Carolina, and 21 percent in North Carolina. Aphids were building in Alabama and the Carolinas, due to dry conditions, and producers scouted fields and applied sprays. SOUTH CENTRAL MARKETS North Delta Spot cotton trading was inactive. Producer offerings and supplies were light. Demand was light. Average local spot prices were lower. Trading of CCC-loan equities was inactive. No forward contracting was reported. Hot, dry conditions persisted throughout the region during the period. Daytime temperatures soared above 100 degrees and rapidly depleted soil moisture, especially on dryland fields. A general rain was needed to promote normal plant development. In spite of the decline in available soil moisture, the crop was rated at mostly good to excellent by the National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS). According to NASS, boll setting was estimated at 16 percent in Arkansas, compared to 5 percent in Missouri. No bolls were reported in Tennessee. Producers treated fields for spider mites and plant bugs. South Delta Spot cotton trading was inactive. Supplies were moderate. Producer offerings were light. Demand was light. Average local spot prices were lower. Trading of CCC-loan equities was inactive. No forward contracting was reported. The crop made good progress under continued hot, dry conditions. Producers were irrigating wherever possible. Rain is needed to allow the crop to advance normally. According to the National Agricultural Statistics Service, boll setting was estimated at 10 percent in Louisiana and 6 percent in Mississippi. Producers treated fields for spider mites and plant bugs as needed. Fields were being carefully monitored for aphids as populations were reported to be approaching threshold levels for treatment. SOUTHWESTERN MARKETS East Texas-Oklahoma Spot cotton trading was inactive. Supplies were moderate. Demand was light. Average local spot prices were lower. Trading of CCC-loan equities was inactive. Foreign mill inquiries were light. No forward contracting or domestic mill activity was reported. Hot, dry conditions dominated the weather pattern for much of south and east Texas. Daytime highs were in the mid-90s to low 100s. After three to four weeks of no significant rainfall in the lower Rio Grande Valley, dryland acreage was struggling. Local experts indicated the crop was approximately two to three weeks from cutout stage in the earliest planted fields. Lack of rainfall and insufficient subsoil moisture had portions of the Coastal Bend crop at cut-out stage and open bolls were visible. Harvesting could begin in the next two weeks. The Upper Coast and Winter Garden area crops were progressing normally. Timely rains kept the central and east Texas crops in good shape. Dryland acreage north and west of Abilene, TX and in Oklahoma was struggling, due to intense heat and inadequate soil moisture. Rainfall was desperately needed to help advance the crop. Irrigated acreage in Kansas and Oklahoma made good progress. West Texas Trading of spot cotton was inactive. Supplies were moderate. Demand was light. Average local spot prices were lower. No forward contracting or domestic mill activity was reported. Trading of CCCloan equities was inactive. Foreign mill interest continued light. Temperatures were in the high 90s to low 100s with no rainfall recorded in the period. No rain was expected in the near term. Intense heat and winds stressed the dryland crop. In some areas that did not receive timely rains, dryland acreage was deteriorating. Significant moisture was needed soon to turn around the crop. Some producers made appointments for insurance adjusters to evaluate fields to determine loss. Irrigated acreage was flourishing, but stands were small. WESTERN MARKETS Desert Southwest (DSW) Spot cotton trading was inactive. Supplies and demand were light. Average local spot prices were lower. No forward contracting or domestic mill activity was reported. Foreign mill inquiries were light. Daytime temperatures were in the high 100s in Arizona for most of the period.

According to the US Drought Monitor released June 26, the region was rated as abnormally dry to moderate drought status. Irrigation water was still being released by irrigation districts and water would be available through most of July. The crop made good progress. San Joaquin Valley (SJV) Spot cotton trading was inactive. Supplies were moderate. Demand was light. Average local spot prices were lower. No forward contracting or domestic mill activity was reported. Foreign mill inquiries were light and mostly for prompt shipment. A low pressure system off the Northeast Coast kept Valley temperatures below normal for this time of year. Temperatures were in the low to mid-80s, which kept insect populations at bay. Local experts reported that the crop was progressing normally. Blooming continued in the south and central Valley in early-planted fields. Field activity consisted of applying plant-growth regulators and treatments for lygus. AMERICAN PIMA (AP) Spot cotton trading was inactive. Supplies were moderate. Demand was light. Average local prices were steady. No forward contracting or domestic mill activity was reported. Foreign mill inquiries were light and for prompt shipment.

For patients with cardiac arrest this means a much better chance of sustaining only minor consequential damage. With this product the Hohenstein researchers have managed to develop a new noninvasive method for surface cooling of the body. That means no surgical procedure is required and in contrast to conventional cooling systems it can be used directly at the place of emergency without any power source. The cooling pads harbour enormous potential in the neurological rehabilitation after cardiac arrests, explains Prof. Dr. Dirk Hfer. In addition to the benefits for the affected individual, every prevented case of invalidity is also a great financial advantage for the general public. Even though the researchers are looking for an industrial partner for production and sales of the cooling pads for the time being, they are already contemplating other innovative applications for textile cooling and heating processes in medicine.

Commerce Min begins inquiry into core sector data goof up

NEW DELHI, JULY 01 Indias Commerce and Industry Ministry has initiated an internal exercise to find out the reasons behind the goof up in the eight core sector growth data for May, which was revised within hours of the release to the media on Friday. We have started an internal exercise to find out the reasons of problems in the data. My officers are on the job, a ministry official said when asked about the reasons for lowering of core sector data for May to 3.8 per cent from 4.6 per cent. The official further said, The Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation (MoSPI) should tell the reason behind the data issues. However, an official in MoSPI said, We take data from the Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion (DIPP) for Index of Industrial Production (IIP). I will find out when we start revising figures for the forthcoming IIP numbers. While DIPP, which is under the Commerce and Industry ministry, is responsible for dissemination of Wholesale Price Index and core sector data, MoSPI collects data for national income and releases the IIP figures. On Friday, in an afternoon statement, the Commerce and Industry Ministry said that the eight core sector industries recorded a growth of 4.6 per cent in May on the back of surge in cement and coal production. But within three hours, it was changed to 3.8 per cent. The growth in the cement sector, which showed 22.1 per cent expansion in May according to the first press statement, was later changed to 11.3 per cent. The eight core industries coal, crude oil, natural gas, fertilisers, petroleum refinery products, electricity, cement and finished steel - have a weight of 37.9 per cent in the IIP. There have been similar problems earlier as well in different sets of crucial data, and this issue has been raised even by Reserve Bank of India Governor D Subbarao. Last year, the commerce ministry revised downwards its export data for several months. Similar errors were also noticed in IIP figures which had to be revised later, much to the embarrassment of the government. There were also reports of error in the updated series of the Whole sale Price Index. The government has set up a committee to revise the index to take into account structural changes in the economy since 2004-05. The 31-member group, to be chaired by Planning Commission Member Saumitra Chaudhuri, will suggest methods for ensuring smooth flow of data and also to look into the possibility of having a single agency for collecting data for WPI and IIP.
