by third parties. Any such challenge by third parties, or proceedings by us to protect our intellectual property,
may entail significant time and cost commitments, and our Company cannot assure that it would be successful
in such defence/proceedings, which would entail adverse financial implications. Loss of critical intellectual
property (especially patents) would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and
financial condition.
5. Our business plans may need substantial capital and additional financing in the form of debt and/or equity to
meet our requirements.
Our business requires a substantial amount of working capital. In many cases, working capital is required to
finance the purchase of raw materials. Our working capital requirements may increase if, in certain contracts,
payment terms do not provide for advance payments to us or if payment schedules are less favorable to us. Our
x

Company may need additional financing in the future in the form of debt and/or equity to fulfill our working
capital needs. Continued increases in working capital requirements may have an adverse effect on our financial
condition and results of operations.
6. If our Company is unable to attract and retain key employees, our operations could be adversely affected.
Our business substantially depends on the continued service of our key managerial personnel. The loss of the
services of our key managerial personnel could have a material adverse effect on us. Our future success will
also depend on our ability to attract highly skilled personnel, such as engineering, project management and
senior management professionals. Our Company could experience difficulty from time to time in hiring the
personnel necessary to support our business. If our Company does not succeed in attracting new high quality
employees, our reputation may be adversely impacted and our future earnings may be negatively impacted.
7. Increase in the cost of raw materials, particularly petroleum-based raw materials, have put pressure on our
margins and could have a material adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations.
Production of polyesters fibre, performs and PET requires raw materials which are procured from petroleumbased
products. The cost of raw materials consumed by our Company constituted approximately 53.9% of our
Company’s net sales for FY 2008 and approximately 57.2% of our Company’s net sales for FY 2007. Constant
increase in the price of crude oil in the international market, specially in the last couple of years, has a direct
impact on our cost of manufacturing. Any increase in the cost of the raw materials can adversely impact our
profit margins if our Company is unable to pass on the increased cost on to our customers. Further, even if we
are able to pass on the increase in raw material prices to our customers, this may reduce the demand for our
products. To the extent that our Company uses virgin raw material (vis-à-vis recycled raw material), this
consequent volatility in the price of raw materials may have a material adverse impact on our business, financial
condition and results of operations.
8. The demand for PSF is substantially dependent on the prices of other fibres (primarily cotton), and reduction
in prices of other fibres may adversely affect PSF demand.
One of our key products is PSF, which accounted for 41.42% and 46.69% of our sales in FY 2007 and FY 2008
respectively. PSF is primarily used in the textile industry, and is blended with other fibres (including cotton) in
textile production. The blending percentage in the textile industry depends, in part, upon the prices of the
respective fibres used in the blend. Any fall in the prices of other fibres (primarily cotton), on account of excess
production or otherwise, may lead to reduction of percentage of PSF in the blends, thereby adversely affecting
the demand for PSF, which would have a material adverse effect on our turnover, and consequently on our
business, results of operations and financial condition.
9. The Registered and Corporate Office of our Company is not owned by us
The Registered and Corporate Office of our Company is not owned by us, and has been taken on lease by us,
which is currently valid till January 25, 2009. The rent payable for the occupation of this premises is Rs.
2,22,250 per month. We cannot assure that this lease would be renewed at all, or would be renewed on terms
and conditions (including rent) which would be acceptable to us. In the event of non-renewal, we may have to
shift to another premises, which may lead to higher rent/maintenance outgo, and lead to a temporary disruption
in operations till the shifting is complete. Any increase in rent/expenses in this regard could have a material
adverse effect on its financial condition and results of operations.
10. Some of our Promoter Group Companies have incurred losses in last three years.
Some of our Promoter Group Companies have incurred losses during last three years, as set forth in the table

Entities” beginning on page 77 of the Draft Letter of Offer
11. Our Company places heavy reliance on the import of raw material
Our Company has to rely heavily on the import of raw materials for manufacturing polymer. Timely
procurement of raw material is the most critical aspect of our manufacturing operation and the same is subject,
inter alia, to laws monitoring the import in India as also laws governing exports in the countries/territories from
where the exports originate, soverign and territorial factors, among others. Further, any change in the importexport
policy by the Government of India may have a negative impact on the import of our raw materials.
12. At times our Company has to depend on third party manufacturers for the supply of polymer and disruption
in their operations may have a negative impact on our manufacturing operations.
Our Company has in house provision for the manufacture of polymer, which acts as a raw material for
generating performs. However, there are occasions when in order to execute orders in bulk, our Company has
to procure polymer from other manufacturers. Our Company has relied on these suppliers in times of
exigencies pertaining to the supply of polymer. Any change in the supply pattern of third party suppliers may
have a negative impact on the manufacture of performs, in case of any paucity in the in house manufacture of
polymer.
13. Potential fluctuations in future operating results on account of increase in raw material costs, transportation
costs etc.
The factors for potential fluctuations in future operating results include:
xii

a. Cost of Raw Materials
Purified Terepthalic Acid and Mono Ethylene Glycol are the major raw materials used in the manufacturing
of our products. A major portion of the requirements of the basic raw materials by our Company is
imported. The cost of such materials to our Company depends upon the prices ruling in the international
commodity markets at the time of imports, over which our Company does not have any control. Any
increase in the price of PTA and MEG would directly affect the margins of our Company.
b. Labour Union
Our Company employs a large number of work force at its manufacturing plant. The factory workers are
affiliated to particular Trade Union(s). Any concerted industrial action could always disrupt the production
volume and consequently the sales growth of our Company.
c. Transportation
Timely delivery of products is critical for our performance. Our Company uses third-party transporters for
the supply of raw materials to our factories and for delivery of finished products to our customers. Any
hindrance in the logistics network, serious strike, stoppage of work, etc by the fleet owners could cause an
adverse effect on our receipt of supplies and our ability to deliver our finished products in time, which
could impact our business. Further, high transportation cost and escalation thereof may affect our
profitability.
14. Any delay in timely delivery of our products will adversely impact our relations with the clients.
Typically, business in our industry is subject to specific delivery schedule requirements with liquidated
damages chargeable in the event the schedules are not adhered to. Failure to adhere to contractually agreed
timelines could cause damage to our reputation within our industry and client base, which may lead to
loss/reduction of business from exising clients and not being able to procure new clients, and cause us to pay
liquidated damages.
15. Our results of operations could be adversely affected by disputes with our employees
As of March 31, 2008, our Company has employed 827 full-time employees. While our Company believes that
itgenerally maintains satisfactory relationships with its employees and labour, there can be no assurance that
itwill not experience future disruptions in its operations due to disputes or other problems with its work force.
Further, any upward revision of wages required by the government to be paid to labourers, or offer of
permanent employment or the unavailability of the required number of contract labourers, may adversely affect
our business and results of our operations.
16. Non renewal of the statutory and regulatory permissions and approvals required to operate our business
may have a material adverse effect on our business.
Being in the manufacturing business, our Company requires several statutory and regulatory permits, licenses
and approvals to operate the business. Many of these approvals are granted for fixed periods of time and need
renewal from time to time. Our Company is required to renew such permits, licenses and approvals. There can
be no assurance that the relevant authorities will issue any of such permits or approvals in time or at all. Further,
these permits, licenses and approvals are subject to several conditions, and our Company cannot assure that it
shall be able to continuously meet such conditions or be able to prove compliance with such conditions to
statutory authorities, and this may lead to cancellation, revocation or suspension of relevant permits/ licenses/
approvals. Failure by our Company to renew, maintain or obtain the required permits, licenses or approvals, or
cancellation, suspension or revocation of any of the permits, licenses or approvals may result in the interruption
of our Company’s operations and may have a material adverse effect on the business. For details please refer to
chapter titled “Government/Statutory Approvals” beginning on page 200 of the Draft Letter of Offer.
17. Our existing manufacturing unit is located in Manali, Chennai. Any unrest or natural calamity in this unit
can break down our operations which will adversely affect our operations.
Our manufacturing unit at Manali, Chennai and our business operations are vulnerable to damage or
interruptions in operations due to adverse weather conditions, earthquakes, tsunami, fires, explosions, power
loss, viruses, transmission cable cuts or similar events. Any failure of our systems or any shutdown of any part
of our manufacturing units, networks, operations because of operational disruption, natural disaster such as
flood or earthquake, or otherwise, could disrupt our services and result in significant costs.
xiii

Further, there can be no assurance that business continuity plans our Company has developed to cover material
breakdowns or damage to its manufacturing units, network or critical operating equipment will be sufficient to
maintain its operations in adverse circumstances.
18. Our Company has high capital expenditure requirements.
The cost of fixed assets/equipment in our business, including replacement cost, is very high. Our Company
may need additional financing in the future in the form of debt and/or capital to fulfill its capital expenditure
needs. Our Company cannot assure that such financing would be available, or available at terms acceptable to
us, and consequently our capital expenditure plans may be adversely affected. Further, the cost of servicing
debt/capital may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
19. Our funding requirements and deployment of the proceeds of the Issue are based on management estimates
and have not been verified independently.
Our funding requirements and the deployment of the proceeds of the Issue are based on management estimates
and have not been appraised by any bank or financial institution. Further, such estimates are based on market
conditions and management expectations as of the date they were made. In view of the highly competitive
nature of the industry in which our Company operates, we may have to revise our management estimates from
time to time and consequently our funding requirements may also change. We may need to borrow further/raise
further capital to meet our working capital requirements for the FY 2008-2009, meeting which is the primary
object of this Issue, and the cost of servicing debt/capital may have a material adverse effect on our results of
operations and financial condition.
20. The Issue proceeds shall be utilized for the purposes of funding working capital requirements and general
corporate purpose. Hence would not result in the creation of tangible fixed assets.
The Issue proceeds shall be primarily and significantly utilized for the funding working capital requirements
and general corporate purposes. Our business demands heavy expenditure on raw material and this leads to an
increased manufacturing cost. The money raised through present Rights Issue will be used to generate this
working capital, and thus is not expected to result in creation/acquisition of tangible fixed assets. For details,
please refer to the chapter titled on “Objects of the Issue” beginning on page 21 of the Draft Letter of Offer.
21. Our Company may not have adequate insurance to cover all probable risks in its business operations. Loss
on account of uninsured risks may affect the results of our operations.
We believe that we maintain insurance in accordance with customary industrial practices. However, the amount
of our insurance coverage may be less than replacement cost of all covered property and may not be sufficient
to cover all financial losses that we may suffer should a risk materializes. Further, there are many events that
could cause significant damages to our operations or expose us to third party liabilities, whether or not known to
us, for which we may not be adequately insured. Further, all our insurance policies have exclusion clauses and
do not cover us for certain risks and in certain circumstances. If we were to incur a significant liability for
which we were not fully insured, it could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and
financial condition.
22. Compliance with and changes in safety, health, and environmental laws and regulations may adversely
affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of our operations
Our Company is subject to safety and health laws and regulations such as the Environment (Protection) Act,
1986, the Water (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1974, the Air (Prevention and Control of Pollution)
Act, 1981, Hazardous Wastes (Management & Handling) Rules, 1989, the Indian Explosives Act, Fire Service
Laws and the Indian Boilers Act, 1923. These laws and regulations impose controls on our Company’s safety
standards, and other aspects of its operations. Our Company has incurred and expects to continue to incur,
operating costs to comply with such laws and regulations. In addition, our Company has made and expects to
continue to make capital expenditures on an on-going basis to comply with the safety and health laws and
regulations. Our Company may be liable to the Government of India or the State Governments or Union
Territories with respect to its failures to comply with applicable laws and regulations. Further, the adoption of
new safety and health laws and regulations, new interpretations of existing laws, increased governmental
enforcement of laws or other developments in the future may require that our Company make additional capital
xiv

expenditures or incur additional operating expenses in order to maintain its current operations or take other
actions that could have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations and cash flow.
Safety, health and environmental laws and regulations in India, in particular, have been increasing in stringency
and it is possible that they will become significantly more stringent in the future. The costs of complying with
these requirements could be significant.
23. Our Promoter and Promoter Group holding is low.
Upon completion of the Issue, the Promoters and Promoter Group Entities may beneficially own at least 38.89%
of our post-Issue Equity Sharecapital. Since our Promoters and Promoter Group own less than 50% of the paid
up share capital of our Company, they may not be able to continue exercising significant control over our
Company, including being able to control the composition of our Company’s Board of Directors, determine
decisions requiring majority voting, and may be unable to affect the outcome of certain shareholder resolutions,
even though the same may be in the best interests of our Company. Further, our Company is vulnerable to
hostile takeovers, and we cannot assure that any potential acquirer would act in the best interests of our
Company or its shareholders.
24. We have entered into and shall continue to enter into Related Party Transactions
Our business model involves entering into certain related party transactions. We have entered into certain
related party transactions with our Promoters, Directors and Promoter group entities. For further details, refer to
the chapter titled “Financial Statements” beginning on page 112 of the Draft Letter of Offer
25. Any loss of or breakdown of machinery at our manufacturing facility at Manali, Chennai may have an
adverse affect on business, financial condition and results of operations
Our Company’s manufacturing facility at Manali, Chennai is subject to operating risks, such as the breakdown
or failure of equipment, power supply or processes, performance below expected levels of output or efficiency,
obsolescence, labour disputes, industrial accidents and the need to comply with the directives of relevant
government authorities. The occurrence of any of these risks could significantly affect its operating results. Our
business and operations may be adversely affected by any disruption of operations at our manufacturing facility.
26. Product innovation and research and development activities are an integral part of our business model. If
our research and product development efforts are not successful, our business may be restricted.
Growth of our future operations depends upon our ability to successfully carry out research and development of
new processes and produce new and higher quality products from a variety of raw materials. These processes
must meet quality standards where applicable and may sometimes require regulatory approvals. The
development and commercialization process would require spending of both time and money. Our ongoing
investments in research and development for future products and processes may result in higher costs without a
proportionate increase in revenues. Any failure or delay in timely development and commercialization of new
products or our inability to obtain patents or other legal protection may have a material adverse effect on our
business, results of operations and financial condition.
27. Our operations involve handling hazardous material that could expose us to the risk of liabilities, lost
revenues and increased expenses.
Our operations are subject to various hazards associated with the production of chemical products, such as the
use, handling, processing, storage and transportation of hazardous/explosive materials such as, as well as
accidents such as leakage or spillages of chemicals. Any mishandling of hazardous chemical and poisonous
substances could also lead to fatal accidents. In order to prevent such mishandling we have established various
measures including training of workers, prominent display of safety measures and precaution measures in
production areas. In addition, our employees operate heavy machinery at our manufacturing facilities and
accidents may occur while operating such machinery. These hazards can cause personal injury and loss of life,
severe damage to and destruction of property and equipment, environmental damage and may result in the
suspension of operations and the imposition of civil and criminal liabilities. As a result of past or future
operations, there may be claims of injury by employees or members of the public due to exposure, or alleged
exposure, to the hazardous materials involved in our business. In addition, we may be subject to claims of injury
from indirect exposure to hazardous materials that are incorporated into our products. Liabilities incurred as a
result of these events have the potential to adversely impact our financial position. Events like these could also
xv

adversely affect our perception with suppliers, customers, regulators, employees and the public, which could in
turn affect our financial condition and business performance. While we maintain general insurance against these
liabilities, the insurance proceeds may not be adequate to fully cover the substantial liabilities, lost revenues or
increased expenses that we might incur.
28. As per the loan agreements entered into by us with our lenders, there are certain restrictions on us, which
may hamper our future business growth and business policies.
We have entered into agreements for availing financial facilities from various lenders. Certain covenants in
these agreements require us to obtain approval/ permission from our lenders. These covenants include, amongst
others, implementation of any scheme of expansion / diversification / renovation / capital expenditure,
formulation of any scheme of amalgamation or reconstruction, undertaking of guarantee obligation, any change
in our capital structure, among others. We cannot assure that these approvals would be forthcoming when we
apply for the same.
Accordingly, we are required to obtain prior consent from our lenders for the Issue. We are yet to obtain the
consent of IDBI Bank Limited, one of our lenders, for this Issue, for which we have applied.
For further details in this regard, please refer chapter titled “Financial Indebtedness” beginning on page 46 of
the Draft Letter of Offer
29. Our agreements with certain commission agents have certain exclusivity clauses
Our agreements with certain of our commission agents bind us with exclusivity clauses. These exclusivity
clauses pertain to, among others(varying from agreement to agreement) the geographical coverage of markets,
products to be sold in certain markets or products sold to certain customers. We cannot assure that we would
continue to be compliance with the exclusivity terms in these agreements, and any breach of the same may
expose us to risk of termination of contract and legal proceedings. These exclusivity terms may adversely affect
our ability to expand our business in the areas/products covered by the relevant agreement, which may have a
consequent adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
30. Agreements entered into by our Company with the commission agents are not stamped. Further, agreements
with commission agents outside India are enforceable outside India.
Agency agreements entered into by us with our commission agents have not been stamped. The effect of nonstamping
is that the document is not admissible as evidence in legal proceedings, and parties to that agreement
may not be able to legally enforce to same, except after paying a penalty for inadequate stamping.
Further, our agreements with commission agents outside India provide for venue for arbitration and/or
jurisdiction in Courts outside India, including in the United Kingdom. The legal and other costs that we may
incur in initiating and/or defending any actions arising out of such contracts could be significantly higher
outside India than in India. Further, we may not always be able to enforce/execute judgments obtained in
foreign courts/tribunals against the counterparties.
31. Our Company has not achieved the projections as promised in our earlier rights issues
Our Company has made rights issues in the years 1988, 1993 and 2004, in which respect, certain
projections/promises made in the rights issue offer document in 1993 were not fulfilled. For futher details, refer
to paragraph titled “Details of Public / Rights Issues” beginning on 213 of the Draft Letter of Offer.
External Risk Factors:
1. A slowdown in economic growth in India could cause our business to suffer.
Our performance and growth are dependent on the health of the Indian economy. The economy could be
adversely affected by various factors such as political or regulatory action, including adverse changes in
liberalization policies, social disturbances, terrorist attacks and other acts of violence or war, natural calamities,
interest rates, commodity and energy prices and various other factors. Any slowdown in the Indian economy
may adversely impact our business and financial performance and the price of our Equity Shares.
xvi

2. Any downgrading of India’s debt rating by an independent agency may harm our ability to raise financing.
Any adverse revisions to India’s credit ratings for domestic and international debt by international rating
agencies may adversely affect our ability to raise additional financing and the interest rates and other
commercial terms at which such additional financing is available. This could have a material adverse effect on
our capital expenditure plans, business and financial performance and the price of our Equity Shares.
3. Force Majeure events, terrorist attacks and other acts of violence or war involving India or other countries
could adversely affect the financial markets, result in a loss of investor confidence and adversely affect our
business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
Certain events are beyond our control, such as force majeure events, terrorist attacks, and other acts of violence
or war, civil unrest and military activity. Any such event could happen at or otherwise affect one or more of our
businesses, which would adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. Moreover,
these and other similar events may adversely affect worldwide financial markets and could lead to global
economic recession. Such events may also result in a loss of business confidence or have other consequences
that could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. The occurrence of any of
the foregoing could therefore adversely affect our financial performance or the market price of the Equity
Shares.
4. An outbreak of an infectious disease or any other serious public health concerns in Asia or elsewhere could
have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations.
The outbreak of an infectious disease in Asia or elsewhere or any other serious public health concerns could
have a negative impact on the economies, financial markets and business activities in the countries in which our
end markets are located, which could have an adverse effect on our business.
5. We are subject to regulatory, economic and political uncertainties in India.
In the early 1990s, India experienced significant inflation, low growth in gross domestic product and shortages
of foreign currency reserves. The Indian government provided significant tax incentives and relaxed certain
regulatory restrictions in order to encourage foreign investment in specified industries of the economy. There is
no assurance that liberalization policies will continue. Furthermore, the rate of economic liberalization could
change, and specific laws and policies affecting technology companies, foreign investment, currency exchange
rates and other matters affecting investment in our Equity Shares could also change. Since 1996, the
Government of India has changed six times and the current Indian government is a coalition of many parties,
some of which may differ from India’s current economic policies. Various factors, including a collapse of the
present coalition government due to the withdrawal of support of coalition members, could trigger significant
changes in India’s economic liberalization and deregulation policies, disrupt business and economic conditions
in India generally and our business in particular. Our financial performance and the market price of our shares
may be adversely affected by changes in inflation, exchange rates and controls, interest rates, government of
India policies, social stability or other political, economic or diplomatic developments affecting India in the
future.
6. We are subject to risks arising from exchange rate fluctuations.
The exchange rate between the Rupee and other currencies is variable and may continue to fluctuate in the
future. Fluctuations in the exchange rates may affect us to the extent of such orders being placed overseas. We
may place orders with overseas contractors and manufacturers. Such fluctuation may affect us to the extent of
increasing the cost of import of goods and services.
7. Regional conflicts in South Asia could adversely affect the Indian economy, disrupt our Company's
operations and cause its business to suffer.
South Asia has, from time to time, experienced instances of civil unrest and hostilities among neighbouring
countries. In recent years there have been military confrontations along the India-Pakistan border. Military
activity or terrorist attacks could adversely affect the Indian economy. This could have a material adverse effect
on the market for securities of Indian companies including the Equity Shares of our Company.
xvii

Risks Relating to the Issue of Securities:
1. There are restrictions on daily movements in the price of the Equity Shares, which may adversely affect a
shareholder’s ability to sell, or the price at which it can sell, Equity Shares at a particular point in time.
We are subject to a daily “circuit breaker” imposed by all stock exchanges in India, which does not allow
transactions beyond specified increases or decreases in the price of the Equity Shares. This circuit breaker
operates independently of the index-based market-wide circuit breakers generally imposed by SEBI on Indian
stock exchanges. The maximum movement allowed in the price of the Equity Shares before the circuit breaker
is triggered is determined by the Stock Exchange based on the historical volatility in the price and trading
volume of the Equity Shares. The Stock Exchange does not inform us of the triggering point of the circuit
breaker in effect from time to time, and may change it without our knowledge. This circuit breaker limits the
upward and downward movements in the price of the Equity Shares. As a result of this circuit breaker, no
assurance may be given regarding your ability to sell your Equity Shares or the price at which you may be able
to sell your Equity Shares at any particular time.
2. Our stock price may be volatile, and you may be unable to resell your shares at or above the Issue price or at
all.
The market price of our Equity Shares after this Issue will be subject to significant fluctuations in response to,
among other factors:
1 Variations in our operating results and the performance of our business;
2 Adverse media reports about us;
3 Regulatory developments in our target markets affecting us, our clients or our competitors;
4 Market conditions and perception specific to the polyester and perform industry
5 Changes in financial estimates by securities research analysts;
6 Loss of one or more significant clients;
7 The performance of the Indian and global economy;
8 Significant developments in India’s economic liberalization and deregulation policies and the fiscal regime; and
9 Volatility in the Indian and global securities markets.
Many of these factors are beyond our control. There has been recent volatility in the Indian stock markets and
our share price could fluctuate significantly as a result of such volatility in the future.
3. Any future issuance of Equity Shares by us or the issue of stock options under an employee stock option plan
may dilute the investor’s shareholding or adversely affect trading price of the Equity Shares.
Any future issuance of Equity Shares by us or the issue of stock options under an employee stock option plan
where ourCompany issues further Equity Shares could dilute the investor’s shareholding. Additionally, sales of
our Equity Shares by our Promoters or significant shareholders could also have an adverse affect on the trading
price of the Equity Shares. Such events could also impact our ability to raise capital through an offering of our
securities. In addition, any perception by investors that such issuances or sales might occur could also affect the
trading price of the Equity Shares.
Notes to Risk Factors:
1 Issue of 2,62,10,839 Equity Shares with a face value of Rs. 10/- each at par of our Company at par (that is,
Rs. 10/- each) for an amount aggregating to Rs. 2621.08 lacs on rights basis to the existing shareholders of

Industry Overview:
Petrochemicals are derived from various chemical compounds, mainly from hydrocarbons. These hydrocarbons
are derived from crude oil and natural gas. Among the various fractions produced by distillation of crude oil,
petroleum gases, naphtha, kerosene and gas oil are the main feed stocks for petrochemical industry. Ethane,
propane and natural gas liquids obtained from natural gas are the other important feedstock used in the
Petrochemicals industry. Petrochemical industry plays a vital role in economic growth and development of
manufacturing sector. The value addition in the petrochemicals industry is higher than most of the other industry
sectors.
The Petrochemical industry, which entered in the Indian industrial scene in 1970s, registered a rapid growth in
the 1980s and 1990s. Petrochemical industry mainly comprise of synthetic fibre / yarn, polymers, Synthetic
Rubber, Synthetic detergent intermediates, performance plastics and plastic processing industry.
Today, petrochemical products permeate the entire spectrum of daily use items and cover almost every sphere of
life like clothing, housing, construction, furniture, automobiles, household items, agriculture, horticulture,
irrigation, packaging, medical appliances, electronics and electrical etc.
India Scenario
Consumption of PE, PP and PVC (three major polymers) in India reached 4.6 million tonnes registering a y-o-y
growth of 10% during FY 2006-07. PP and LLDPE registered a healthy growth of 15%. LDPE consumption
grew at 8% whereas HDPE grew at 9% and PVC witnessed a modest growth of 7%. The demand for PVC in
India experienced a 7% y-o-y growth.

Polyester fibers are the most widely used synthetic fibers in the world today. Polyester fibers, however, have
poor elasticity and stretch recovery, do not absorb moisture, are comparatively difficult to dye, and generate
static electricity under dry conditions. However, many of the deficiencies of polyester filament yarn and staple
fibre can be reduced or overcome by fiber modification and/or by blending with cotton or other fibers. Hightenacity
polyester filament yarn and staple fibre have a higher tensile strength and a lower elongation before
break than conventional polyester fiber. High-tenacity polyester fibers are used for both industrial and textile
applications for which high strength and low crimp are important.

PET
PET is eco-friendly and inert which has established itself as the polymer of the future in most packaging
applications, especially in food and beverage packaging. It is widely used in packaging of soft drinks, water,
edible oil, food products, juices, dairy beverages, pharmaceuticals, toiletries etc.
The overall worldwide demand of PET resin continues to grow with the increasing demand of plastic and PET
packaging. The total world demand for PET resin is estimated to be 14.6 million tons in 2010 as compared to
10.0 million tons in 2005-06. In India also the market for PET Resin is growing steadily. The demand of PET
resin is also influenced by seasonal factors and the growth pattern of the food processing and FMCG sectors.

Business Overview:
Our Company was incorporated as a public limited company in Maharashtra under the name Indian Organic
Chemicals Limited in February 1960 and commenced business on April 22, 1960. We commenced
manufacturing operations at our plant at Khopoli, Maharashtra, for production of alcohol-based chemicals like
Acetic Acid, Acetic Anhydride, Acetaldehyde and Ethyl Acetate, Benzyl products, Plasticizers and Glyoxal.
In 1972, we set up a plant at Manali, Chennai, for manufacture of Polyester Fibres with an installed capacity of
6,100 MT per annum. By 1986, the capacity was expanded to 38,500 MT per annum. Subsequently, a 9,175 MT
of Polyester Filament Yarn (POY) plant was also set up. The POY business was discontinued after 1995 due to
its uneconomic size and the plant had since been disposed off.
With the launching of petro-based chemicals in 1990s and liberalization of molasses usage for potable alcohol,
our industrial alcohol-based facility at Khopoli lost its competitive edge. The chemicals business had to be
phased out gradually over a period of time. We however, succeeded in adapting and using our facilities at
Khopoli to undertake knowledge based activities like custom synthesis, contract manufacture and contract R&D.
In India skilled manpower like scientists, chemists and engineers are easily available at competitive rates. As the
new activity is “knowledge based” requiring a different focus, our Company decided to transfer the Chemicals
division at Khopoli to another entity called Innovassynth Technologies (India) Limited.
With the separation of chemical business of our Company as above, our Polyester business at Chennai started
focusing on Speciality Fibres, Speciality Polymers and Preforms. In order that the name of our Company
correctly reflects the core business in which it is engaged in, our Company changed its name to “Futura
Polyesters Limited” which became effective from November 05, 2002. (“Futura” is the registered trade mark of
our Company under which it markets its products.) For details regarding plant location, utilisation of installed
capacity and other related matters please refer to chapter titled “Business Overview” beginning on page [] of
the Draft Letter of Offer.
During the year 1993, our Company commenced production of PET Resin and Preforms at Manali, Chennai,
under the name Futura Polymers Limited, as a joint venture with PepsiCo, USA, through its investment arm
Transmere Inc., Mauritius. Subsequently during the year 1998, PepsiCo Inc. quit the joint venture. During the
year 2002, Futura Polymers Limited was amalgamated with our Company.
Our Company has one manufacturing facility at Chennai, currently consisting of three major activities, namely,
Polyester Staple Fibres/Chips, PET Resins and PET Preforms. The installed capacities of these as on March 31,
2008 are as under:
Product
Installed Capacity in MT per
annum
Polyester Staple Fibre / Chips 38,500
Solid State Polymers 57,000
PET Preforms 20,000
We had established a subsidiary called Futura Industries Limited (FIL) to carry out Development on PET
recycling and commercialise the technology for recycling of Polyester fibre waste and PET bottle scrap into
polyester feed stock. Initially, the factory was located at Tiruvellore, near Chennai. FIL was carrying out the
operations on job work basis for our Company for some time and the facilities were shifted, during 1997from
2

Tiruvellore to the main factory located at Manali, Chennai. In the year 2001, FIL was amalgamated with our
Company. Presently, the PET recycling activity is being carried out at our factory at Manali, Chennai.
Business Strategy
Our strategy is to consolidate and enhance our market position as a producer of Specialty Fibres, Speciality
Polymers and Speciality Preforms. We aim to achieve our strategic objective by implementing the following
strategies:
1 Continuous research and development in new speciality products to maintain a diverse product mix
2 Increase in revenues by utilising our established business relationships
3 Focus on speciality products realizing better margins
4 Strengthening our competitive edge by patenting newly developed products
5 Positioning ourselves amongst the top global brands by manufacturing diverse range of polyesters like PBT,
PTT, PBN, PTN, PEN etc.
We have been continuously developing new products to meet customised needs of our customers. With more
than three decades of experience in Polyesters supported by our established business relationships with our
customers, we believe that we are well placed to secure a significant share of Specialty Resin markets on the
strength of our customised product development.

04, 2008), while 53,71,011 Equity Shares are held in physical form and 4,70,50,668 Equity Shares are held in
demat form.
Our Promoters have confirmed that each of them intend to subscribe to the full extent of their entitlement in the
Issue. Our Promoters reserve their right to subscribe to their entitlement in the Rights Issue either by themselves,
their relatives or through one or more Promoter Group Entities, including by subscribing for renunciation, if
any, made by any of the Promoters to any other Promoter and/ or an affiliate thereof. Our Promoters may apply
for additional Equity Shares in the Issue. As a result of this subscription and consequent allotment as stated
above, the Promoters (and others as mentioned above) may acquire shares over and above their entitlement in
the Issue, which may result in an increase of the shareholding being above the current shareholding with the
entitlement of Equity Shares under the Issue.
This subscription and acquisition of additional Equity Shares by the Promoter(s) (and others as mentioned
above), if any, will not result in change of control of the management of our Company and shall be exempt in
terms of the proviso to Regulation 3(1)(b)(ii) of the Takeover Code. As such, other than meeting the
requirements indicated in the section on “Objects of the Issue” of the Draft Letter of Offer, there is no other
intention/ purpose for this Issue, including any intention to delist our Company, even if, as a result of allotments
to our Promoters (and others as mentioned above) in this Issue, the Promoters’ and Promoter group shareholding
in our Company exceeds their current shareholding.
Our Promoters have provided the following undertaking, in terms of the SEBI (Delisting of Securities)
Guidelines, 2003:
“We undertake that, in case the Rights Issue of Futura Polyesters Limited is undersubscribed as on the Issue
Closing Date, we shall individually, or jointly with or through our relative(s) or Promoter Group entity /
entities, subscribe over and above our entitlement in this Rights Issue to the undersubscribed portion of this
Rights Issue to the extent that minimum subscription of 90% of the Issue size is achieved, to ensure that the
Issue is successful, in compliance with the Listing Agreement and other applicable laws prevailing at that time
relating to continuous listing requirements.”
“We hereby undertake that, in case the Rights Issue of Futura Polyesters Limited is completed with the
Promoters subscribing (either by ourselves or through one or more persons / entities mentioned above) to Equity
Shares over and above their entitlement in order to meet the subscription to the extent of minimum subscription
i.e 90% of the Issue size as stated hereinabove and as a result, if the public shareholding falls below the
permissible minimum level as specified in the listing conditions or listing agreement, we shall, individually or
jointly with our relative(s) or promoter group entity/ entities who or which may have acquired shares in the
Company including pursuant to any renunciation of the whole or part of our entitlement by any Promoter(s),
make an offer for sale of our holding (including that of person/ entity refer to above), so that the public
shareholding is raised to the “permissible minimum level” within a period of three months from the date of
allotment in the proposed Issue, as per the requirements of Clause 17.1 and 17.2 of SEBI (Delisting of
Securities) Guidelines, 2003 or as per any amendment thereto or any other period as may be directed by SEBI or
any appropriate authority.”

SECTION IV – ABOUT US
INDUSTRY OVERVIEW
Petrochemicals are derived from various chemical compounds, mainly from hydrocarbons. These hydrocarbons
are derived from crude oil and natural gas. Among the various fractions produced by distillation of crude oil,
petroleum gases, naphtha, kerosene and gas oil are the main feed stocks for petrochemical industry. Ethane,
propane and natural gas liquids obtained from natural gas are the other important feedstock used in the
Petrochemicals industry. Petrochemical industry plays a vital role in economic growth and development of
manufacturing sector. The value addition in the petrochemicals industry is higher than most of the other industry
sectors.
The Petrochemical industry, which entered in the Indian industrial scene in 1970s, registered a rapid growth in
the 1980s and 1990s. Petrochemical industry mainly comprise of synthetic fibre / yarn, polymers, Synthetic
Rubber, Synthetic detergent intermediates, performance plastics and plastic processing industry.
Today, petrochemical products permeate the entire spectrum of daily use items and cover almost every sphere of
life like clothing, housing, construction, furniture, automobiles, household items, agriculture, horticulture,
irrigation, packaging, medical appliances, electronics and electrical etc.
Global Scenario
The world is witnessing a gradual shift in the production and demand for petrochemicals from West to East.
Availability of abundant cheap raw material in Middle East and emergence of Asia as the major consumption
centre had witnessed an enhanced investment flow to these regions. India and China are expected to be the
major growth centres in the course of next two decades.
The global ethylene capacity in 2006 increased at 4.4% whereas the demand grew by a healthy 5.6%. During
2006, five new crackers were brought on stream with one each in Brazil and the Middle East and three in China.
In addition, six crackers have undergone major de-bottlenecking / expansions.
A strong global economy supported by robust growth in two of the largest economies, China and India will also
help to swiftly absorb the additional products coming out of these new capacities in the Middle East and Asia.
IMF predicts the global GDP to maintain a healthy growth of 5.1% during 2007 as well as through 2008. A
major impetus to this growth will come from the Asian region with China and India being the main contributors.
This will support a healthy demand growth for petrochemical products.
Global Polymer Market
Globally demand for all polymers reached 175 million tonnes of which PE, PP and PVC accounted for 142
million tonnes showing a healthy growth of 5.9%. The growth was mainly driven by LLDPE (7%), HDPE
(6.1%) and PP(6.4%). Asia, Africa and other developing regions had been the primary contributors to this
growth. The global production capacity of PE, PP and PVC touched 162 million tonnes with growth of 5.2%.
Globally, 8 million tonnes of capacity was added during 2006 of which 6 million tonnes was Polyolefins and 2
million tonnes of PVC. The major capacity additions were in China and in the Middle East.
Global Polyester Market
The year 2006-07 was a challenging one for the polyester industry. Rising crude oil prices impacted an increase
in the cost of raw materials while a bumper cotton crop accompanied by subsidised cotton prices exerted
pressure on polyester margins. Stand-alone polyester producers across the world were affected substantially
during the year. The demand in Asia is estimated to grow by 2.4 million tonnes or by 6% in 2007 and 2008
while capacity will increase by only 1.7 million tonnes. The ability of polyester producers across Asia to
successfully pass through higher costs in 2006 gives an early indication of the emerging strength of the sector.
The slow-down in the new polyester capacity expansions accompanied by increase in the demand is expected to
improve the capacity utilisation in polyester operations. The industry is at an early stage of a multi-year upcycle.
29

India Scenario
Consumption of PE, PP and PVC (three major polymers) in India reached 4.6 million tonnes registering a y-o-y
growth of 10% during FY 2006-07. PP and LLDPE registered a healthy growth of 15%. LDPE consumption
grew at 8% whereas HDPE grew at 9% and PVC witnessed a modest growth of 7%. The demand for PVC in
India experienced a 7% y-o-y growth.

Polyester fibers are the most widely used synthetic fibers in the world today. Polyester fibers, however, have
poor elasticity and stretch recovery, do not absorb moisture, are comparatively difficult to dye, and generate
static electricity under dry conditions. However, many of the deficiencies of polyester filament yarn and staple
fibre can be reduced or overcome by fiber modification and/or by blending with cotton or other fibers. Hightenacity
polyester filament yarn and staple fibre have a higher tensile strength and a lower elongation before
break than conventional polyester fiber. High-tenacity polyester fibers are used for both industrial and textile
applications for which high strength and low crimp are important.
Textile exports from India to the developed countries have increased in the post quota regime. A rise in the
domestic textile consumption with the aid of a high GDP growth and changing lifestyle patterns is helping the
consumption of polyester. The emergence of retail boom is boosting the demand for innovative products from
the end consumers who have not experienced such products earlier. Cotton prices are expected to remain firm in
the year ahead with limited growth in crop production thereby leading to a higher cotton-price environment.
This typically has a positive impact on the polyester business both from a demand perspective (higher polyester
blending) and pricing perspective.

PET
PET is eco-friendly and inert which has established itself as the polymer of the future in most packaging
applications, especially in food and beverage packaging. It is widely used in packaging of soft drinks, water,
edible oil, food products, juices, dairy beverages, pharmaceuticals, toiletries etc.
The overall worldwide demand of PET resin continues to grow with the increasing demand of plastic and PET
packaging. The total world demand for PET resin is estimated to be 14.6 million tons in 2010 as compared to
10.0 million tons in 2005-06. In India also the market for PET Resin is growing steadily. The demand of PET
resin is also influenced by seasonal factors and the growth pattern of the food processing and FMCG sectors.

BUSINESS OVERVIEW
Our Company was incorporated as a public limited company in Maharashtra under the name Indian Organic
Chemicals Limited in February 1960 and commenced business on April 22, 1960. We commenced
manufacturing operations at our plant at Khopoli, Maharashtra, for production of alcohol-based chemicals like
Acetic Acid, Acetic Anhydride, Acetaldehyde and Ethyl Acetate, Benzyl products, Plasticizers and Glyoxal.
In 1972, we set up a plant at Manali, Chennai, for manufacture of Polyester Fibres with an installed capacity of
6,100 MT per annum. By 1986, the capacity was expanded to 38,500 MT per annum. Subsequently, a 9,175 MT
of Polyester Filament Yarn (POY) plant was also set up. The POY business was discontinued after 1995 due to
its uneconomic size and the plant had since been disposed off.
With the launching of petro-based chemicals in 1990s and liberalization of molasses usage for potable alcohol,
our industrial alcohol-based facility at Khopoli lost its competitive edge. The chemicals business had to be
phased out gradually over a period of time. We however, succeeded in adapting and using our facilities at
Khopoli to undertake knowledge based activities like custom synthesis, contract manufacture and contract R&D.
As this new activity is “knowledge based”, requiring a different focus, our Company decided to transfer the
chemicals division at Khopoli to another entity called Innovassynth Technologies (India) Limited. The term
“knowledge based” means any activity, which requires use of specialised knowledge of the employees. In India
skilled manpower like scientists, chemists and engineers are easily available at competitive rates. Innovassynth
Technologies (India) Limited is engaged in Customs Synthesis, Contract manufacture and Contract R&D work
which requires specialised knowledge of Chemistry and as such it has to rely on the specialist employees having
the requisite qualifications and experience.
With the separation of chemical business of our Company as above, our Polyester business at Chennai started
focusing on Speciality Fibres, Speciality Polymers and Preforms. In order that the name of our Company
correctly reflects the core business in which it is engaged in, our Company changed its name to “Futura
Polyesters Limited” which became effective from November 05, 2002. (“Futura” is the registered trade mark of
our Company under which it markets its products.)
During the year 1993, our Company commenced production of PET Resin and Preforms at Manali, Chennai,
under the name Futura Polymers Limited, as a joint venture with PepsiCo, USA, through its investment arm
Transmere Inc., Mauritius. Subsequently during the year 1998, PepsiCo Inc. quit the joint venture. During the
year 2002, Futura Polymers Limited was amalgamated with our Company.
Our Company has one manufacturing facility at Chennai, currently consistingof three major activities, namely,
Polyester Staple Fibres/Chips, PET Resins and PET Preforms. The installed capacities of these as on March 31,
2008 are as under:
Product
Installed Capacity in MT per
annum
Polyester Staple Fibre / Chips 38,500
Solid State Polymers 57,000
PET Preforms 20,000
We had established a subsidiary called Futura Industries Limited (FIL) to carry out Development on PET
recycling and commercialise the technology for recycling of Polyester fibre waste and PET bottle scrap into
polyester feed stock. Initially, the factory was located at Tiruvellore, near Chennai. FIL was carrying out the
operations on job work basis for our Company for some time and the facilities were shifted, during 1997 from
Tiruvellore to the main factory located at Manali, Chennai. In the year 2001, FIL was amalgamated with our
Company. Presently, the PET recycling activity is being carried out at our factory at Manali, Chennai.
Our Competitive Strengths
1 Experienced Promoters supported by qualified management team
Our Promoters Mr. Shyam Bhupatirai Ghia and Mr. Mukund Dharamdas Dalal are well qualified and
possess vast industry experience of more than three decades. Our management team also possesses the
requisite qualifications and experience commensurate with their responsibilities. As of March 31, 2008

Advance License 200.21
Marketing and Marketing Strategy (Domestic and exports)
1 Polyester Fibres
Textile mills manufacturing blended polyester and worsted fabrics are our main customers. The major
producers of PSF in India are Reliance Industries Ltd, Indo–Rama Synthetics (India) Limited, and
Bombay Dyeing India Limited who have large capacities of Fibre and Filament Yarn. Their main
product is semi-dull white fibre in the predominantly commodities segment.
We are focussed on specialty and coloured fibres, Tow, Tops, Low Pill and new specialities, High
Shrink, V-Flex, Flame Retardant and Moister Management and Special effects fibre. Our fibre sales are
predominantly to domestic textile mills. We also cater to export markets in Europe, Middle East, USA
and South East Asian countries. Our products and prices are internationally competitive which vary
according to market conditions.
We lay emphasis on development of new products. We have developed more than three hundred shades
of colours in fibres. Recently, we have launched specialities such High Shrink Fibres, V-Flex Fibres,
Flame Retardant Fibres, and Moisture Management Fibres.
2 Polymers
Futura Polymers is a 100% Export Oriented Unit. The PET Resin and allied products are primarily
exported to various countries. There is currently an anti-dumping duty (ADD) against imports of PET
Resin from India into the European Union to mitigate which we have executed a price undertaking with
the European Commission, which facilitates the exports of Speciality Resin. We have completed a
R&D initiative to launch a wide range of Specialty Resins such as Special Hot Fill Resin for fruit juice
application, Special Wave-PET Resin for dual ovenable trays, Special Jar PET Resin as Poly Carbonate
substitute for five gallon water jars, Beer PET Resin for tunnel pasteurisable Beer with C02,O2 barrier,
Easy Dyeable Resin/V-Flex Resin for textile applications, Green PET Resin with 20% recycled
content, Heavy metal free Resin and Resin for pasteurisable juice containers. Our Company has also
diversified into production of entire range of polyesters such as PEN, PTT, PBT, PTN, PBN and Co-
Polyesters.

3 PET Preforms
PET Preforms are sold predominantly in the domestic market to multinational beverage/water
marketing companies. Our Company exports about 100 to 200 tons per month to various countries. The
export market is growing rapidly and our Company hopes to increase its share of exports in the coming
years. Our Company has installed a stretch blow-moulding machine, which is used to blow the bottles
from the newly developed specialty resin for filling juices, beer and pharma products. Our Company is
diversifying into Specialty Preforms for Hotfill / Beer / Liquor / Pharmaceutical segments by using
specialty resins developed in-house.
Competition
i. Polyester Fibres
Three major producers of PSF in India are Reliance Industries Limited, Indo Rama Synthetics (India)
Limited, and Bombay Dyeing India Limited. They have large capacities with main product range as
semi-dull white fibre and black fibre. Our Company is looking to consolidate its position in the niche
segment of specialty and coloured fibres, tow, tops, low pill, etc. Our Company also exports fibres to
several countries with focus on customised colour fibre business with over three hundred shades and
have recently launched a range of speciality fibres such as High Shrink, V-Flex, Flame Retardant,
Moisture Management and Special effects fibres. With continuous R&D and focus on speciality
segment we believe that we can adequately withstand the competition in the segment.
ii. Polymers
The polymer products are mainly exported and there is limited sale in the domestic market except
captive consumption for preforms. Reliance Industries Limited and South Asian Petrochem Limited are
the major producers of PET resin in India. Large-scale producers in USA, China, Korea and Taiwan
offer stiff competition in the world market. There is currently anti-dumping duty against import from
India of PET resin in European Union countries. There are further large capacities being created, which
would result in competition getting more intense.
iii. PET Preforms
There are many medium and small sized manufacturers of preforms in the domestic market. We are
diversifying into specialty Preforms for small Carbonated Soft Drink, hot fill juices, tunnel
pasteurisable containers, beer and pharmaceutical segments using specialty polymers to effectively
handle competition.

INSURANCE
42

We have obtained insurance policies that cover standard industrial risks and workmens’ compensation for our
principal places of business including our factory.at Manali, Chennai. We believe that we maintain insurance in
accordance with customary industrial practices. However, the amount of our insurance coverage may be less
than the replacement cost of all covered property and may not be sufficient to cover all financial losses that we
may suffer should a risk materializes. Further, there are many events that could cause significant damages to our
operations or expose us to third party liabilities, whether or not known to us, for which we may not be
adequately insured. Further, all our insurance policies have exclusion clauses and do not cover us for certain
risks and in certain circumstances. If we were to incur a significant liability for which we were not fully insured,
it could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

HISTORY AND OTHER CORPORATE INFORMATION
History
Our Company was incorporated in the year 1960 under the name of Indian Organic Chemicals Limited. The
name of our Company was changed to Futura Polyesters Limited with effect from November 05, 2002.
Our Company was promoted by the Late Mr. Bhupatirai Maganlal Ghia, a noted industrialist. The Late Mr.
Bhupati Maganlal Ghia and the Late Mr. Dharamdas Sitaldas Dalal were our Company’s Managing Director
and Joint Managing Director from January 01, 1970 until August, 1990 and December 31, 1987, respectively.
After the demise of Mr. Bhupatirai Maganlal Ghia and retirement of Mr. Dharamdas Sitaldas Dalal, Mr. Shyam
Bhupatirai Ghia (son of late Mr. Bhupatirai Maganlal Ghia) and Mr. Mukund Dharamdas Dalal (son of late Mr.
Dharamdas Sitaldas Dalal) are considered as Promoters of our Company. Presently, our Company is managed
by Mr. Shyam Bhupatirai Ghia in the capacity as Chairman & Managing Director and by Mr. Mukund
Dharamdas Dalal in the capacity as Joint Managing Director.
Consequent upon the nationalisation of various banks the erstwhile Corporation Bank Limited had received
compensation of Rs. 180 lacs from the Government of India. Corporation Bank Limited was not under the
control or ownership of the promoters of our Company. At that time our Company needed funds for the
Polyester projects expansion at Chennai. Hence, after negotiation it was agreed that the erstwhile Corporation
Bank Limited would be amalgamated with our Company so that our Company could utilize the compensation
amount received by Corporation Bank Limited for its expansion project and that the shareholders of Corporation
Bank would receive shares in our Company. Accordingly, the amalgamation scheme was prepared and approved
by the respective shareholders of both the companies and the High Court of Karnataka and Mumbai. Upon
amalgamation, our Company issued Equity Shares of Rs. 10/- each credited as fully paid, one convertible
debenture at a face value of Rs. 125/- credited as fully paid and one convertible secured debenture of face value
of Rs. 150/- credited as fully paid against every five ordinary shares of Rs. 50/- each fully paid held by such
members in Corporation Bank Limited.
In the year 1986, our Company formed a separate software division called Sonata Software Division which was
engaged in development, consultancy and marketing of software products. After eight years of its existence and
in view of the opportunities available for software business, the management decided that this activity needed
separate focus and management techniques different from manufacturing activities. The business needed
recruitment of large number of personnel to be trained in software companies, which did not match with the
existing pay structure and prerequisites given by our Company. It was, therefore, decided to spin off this activity
to a separate company formed for this purpose, namely, Sonata Software Limited. Hence, by means of an
agreement in the year 1994 the division was transferred to Sonata Software Limited.
In the face of competition from large manufacturers, a number of polyester manufacturing companies had either
to close down their operations or allow acquisition by other large companies. One of the problems of the
Polyester industry is the high cost of raw materials namely, PTA, MEG, etc. Companies which had integrated
facilities for manufacturing both, the raw materials as well as polyester and fabrics, had a competitive
advantage. In order to overcome this challenge our Company decided to experiment in recycling of polyester
fibre waste and PET bottle scrap into polyester feed stock so as to develop substitute for the high cost raw
material. This needed separate research and development and manufacturing facility distinct from Company’s
operations. Hence, our Company formed a subsidiary called Futura Industries Limited (FIL) for the purpose.
Initially, a factory was located at Tiruvellore, near Chennai, where the bottle washing/crushing/flaking facilities
were designed and developed, based on years of research and development. FIL had also patented the
technology for recycling (developed as above). FIL was carrying out the operation on job work basis for
sometime and the facilities were later shifted from Tiruvellore to the main factory location at Manali, Chennai to
avoid transportation cost. Having perfected the technology for recycling it was considered unnecessary to have
separate establishment for this activity since it involved additional expenditure in terms of administrative costs,
maintenance of separate books of accounts, compliance with various formalities under the laws governing direct
and indirect taxes. Hence in the year 2001 FIL was amalgamated with our Company after getting the required
approvals from the High Courts of Chennai and Bombay.
In the year 1992-93, our Company was approached by PepsiCo international, U.S.A., (PepsiCo) to explore the
possibilities of forming a Joint Venture (JV), to manufacture PET Resin for use by PepsiCo to make bottles for
its packaged beverage/water businesses in U.S.A. After negotiations, a separate JV was formed, namely, Futura
Polymers Limited, with PepsiCo through its investment company. Transmere Inc. Mauritius. In this Futura
Polymers Limited, Transmere Inc. held 70% of the equity and our Company held the remaining 30% of the
Equity Share capital. As per the JV arrangement, PepsiCo through its bottling companies purchased the PET
Resin manufactured by the Joint Venture. In the year 1998, PepsiCo took corporate decision to concentrate only
on its core business, namely, beverages and food products and decided to exit the Joint Venture and sold its
entire stake of 100% in Transmere Inc. to our Company. This resulted, in our Company holding the entire 100%
54

(70% through Transmere and 30% directly) of the Equity Shares of Futura Polymers Limited. In order to avoid
additional expenditure in terms of administrative cost, maintaining separate books of accounts, need for
compliance with various laws including direct and indirect laws etc. it was decided to merge Transmere Inc.,
and the JV Company with our Company. Transmere was amalgamated in 1999 and JV Company was
amalgamated in 2002.
With the launching of petro-based chemicals in 1990s and liberalization of molasses usage for potable alcohol,
our industrial alcohol-based facility at Khopoli lost its competitive edge. Hence, the Chemical division at
Khopoli became unviable and had to be gradually closed down over a period of time. Thereafter, the
infrastructure and facilities available at Khopoli were utilized for new lines of business consisting of contract
chemicals, customs synthesis, contract R&D and other related areas based on specialized scientific skills
available in this country. Since these new activities required special focus, as distinct from the core business of
our Company, namely, manufacture of Polyester Staple fibre, PET Resin and preforms, it was decided to hive
off the Khopoli division to another Company. Hence in the year 2001, our Company incorporated a new
company under the name Innovassynth Technologies (India) Limited as its wholly owned subsidiary. In the year
2004 our Company transferred its entire Chemicals division at Khopoli to Innovassynth Technologies (India)
Limited for a consideration of Rs. 50 crores consisting of Rs. 25 crores of fully paid up Equity Shares and Rs.
25 crores as debt, which has since been repaid. Thereafter, Innovassynth Technologies (India) Limited raised
further capital to meet its expansion requirements. Consequently, the shareholding of our Company in
Innovassynth Technologies (India) Limited stood at 42.5% of the paid up share capital of Innovassynth
Technologies (India) Limited.
Our Company decided to transfer its entitre shareholding of 2,38,50,070 equity shares in Innovassynth
Technologies (India) Limited to a new company namely Innovassynth Investments Limited which was
incorporated on February 15, 2008. It was decided to carry out this transfer through a Scheme of Arrangement
and accordingly, our Company filed in the High Court of Bombay a Scheme of Arrangement under Sections 391
to 394 of the Companies Act, 1956. Pursuant to the Scheme of Arrangement our Company divested its entire
shareholding in Innovassynth Technologies (India) Limited to, Innovassynth Investments Limited, and pursuant
to the said Scheme of Arrangement, shareholders of our Company shall be entitled to receive five equity shares
in Innovassynth Investments Limited for every eleven equity shares held on the record date fixed for the
purposes of determining entitlement of shareholders under the said Scheme. The said Scheme was sanctioned by
the High Court of Bombay on July 04, 2008. The Scheme of Arrangement becomes effective when a copy of the
order of the High Court is filed with with the RoC. Our Company has filed the copy of the order of the High
Court with RoC July 15, 2008, .
In the year 2004, our Company raised additional equity share capital through rights issue at par. The funds
raised by the Rights Issue were fully utilized as working capital.
In the year 2005, our Company incorporated Futura Polyesters Inc. U.S.A as a Subsidiary. Since there were no
operations and no transactions by our company, it was dissolved in the year 2006.
In 2006-2007, our Company was granted its first patent by the President of the European Patent Office for a
period of twenty years.

Overview of the business of our Company
Our Company was incorporated as a public limited company in Maharashtra under the name Indian Organic
Chemicals Limited in February 1960 and commenced business on April 22, 1960. We commenced
manufacturing operations at our plant at Khopoli, Maharashtra, for production of alcohol-based chemicals like
Acetic Acid, Acetic Anhydride, Acetaldehyde and Ethyl Acetate, Benzyl products, Plasticizers and Glyoxal.
In 1972, we set up a plant at Manali, Chennai, for manufacture of Polyester Fibres with an installed capacity of
6,100 MT per annum. By 1986, the capacity was expanded to 38,500 MT per annum. Subsequently, a 9,175 MT
of Polyester Filament Yarn (POY) plant was also set up. The POY business was discontinued after 1995 due to
its uneconomic size and the plant had since been disposed off.
With the launching of petro-based chemicals in 1990s and liberalization of molasses usage for potable alcohol,
our industrial alcohol-based facility at Khopoli lost its competitive edge. The chemicals business had to be
phased out gradually over a period of time. We however, succeeded in adapting and using our facilities at
Khopoli to undertake knowledge based activities like custom synthesis, contract manufacture and contract R&D.
In India skilled manpower like scientists, chemists and engineers are easily available at competitive rates. As the
new activity is “knowledge based” requiring a different focus, our Company decided to transfer the Chemicals
division at Khopoli to another entity called Innovassynth Technologies (India) Limited. The term “knowledge
based” means any activity, which requires use of specialised knowledge of the employees. Innovassynth
Technologies (India) Limited is engaged in Customs Synthesis, Contract manufacture and Contract R&D work
which requires specialised knowledge of Chemistry and as such it has to rely on the specialist employees having
the requisite qualifications and experience.
With the separation of chemical business of our Company as above, our Polyester business at Chennai started
focusing on Speciality Fibres, Speciality Polymers and Preforms. In order that the name of our Company
correctly reflects the core business in which it is engaged in, our Company changed its name to “Futura
Polyesters Limited” which became effective from November 05, 2002. (“Futura” is the registered trademark of
our Company under which it markets its products.)
During the year 1993, our Company commenced production of PET Resin and Preforms at Manali, Chennai,
under the name Futura Polymers Limited, as a joint venture with PepsiCo, USA, through its investment arm
Transmere Inc., Mauritius. Subsequently during the year 1998, PepsiCo Inc. quit the joint venture. During the
year 2002, Futura Polymers Limited was amalgamated with our Company.
Our Company has one manufacturing facility at Chennai, currently consistingof three major activities, namely,
Polyester Staple Fibres/Chips, PET Resins and PET Preforms. The installed capacities of these as on March 31,
2008 are as under:
Product
Installed Capacity in MT per
annum
139

Polyester Staple Fibre / Chips 38,500
Solid State Polymers 57,000
PET Preforms 20,000
We had established a subsidiary called Futura Industries Limited (FIL) to carry out Development on PET
recycling and commercialise the technology for recycling of Polyester fibre waste and PET bottle scrap into
polyester feed stock. Initially, the factory was located at Tiruvellore, near Chennai. FIL was carrying out the
operations on job work basis for our Company for some time and the facilities were shifted, during 1997from
Tiruvellore to the main factory located at Manali, Chennai. In the year 2001, FIL was amalgamated with our
Company. Presently, the PET recycling activity is being carried out at our factory at Manali, Chennai.
Our Competitive Strengths

pasteurisable juice containers and such specialised applications. Our R&D efforts have led us to patenting
process for producing Fast Reheat Bottle Grade PET Resin and product patent pertaining to Thermo Plastic
Crystalline PET. Since we operate in a dynamic industry, our R&D efforts are continuous so as to
supplement our product base with newer and quality products.
8 Established marketing network
We have a well-established marketing network present in India and abroad. We market our Preforms and
Resin products directly to our customers and Fibre products primarily through commission agents.
Presently, we have eleven commission agents in India and nine outside India. We market our products in
Europe, Middle East, USA and South East Asian countries. We interact with our customers on a regular

9 Diverse product mix
Our diverse product mix enables us to serve varied customers’ needs in a short span of time. We have
presence in Polyester Fibres, PET Resins and Preforms products. Our Polyester fibre products are speciality
coloured fibres. We are able to change our product mix to suit our customers’ needs quickly due to our
flexible batch product lines. We have through our R&D efforts developed speciality fibres like V-Flex High
Shrink, Flame retardant moisture management and special effects fibres. We also manufacture products like
Polyester Tow, Tops and Low Pill Fibres. Polymer products cover the entire range of Polyesters namely,
PET, PEN, PTT, PBT, PTN, PBN. Our PET Preforms are used by bottling units for blowing into bottles of
different sizes for filling juices, carbonated beverages and water. We have developed speciality performs
for small Carbonated Soft Drink, beer and Pasteurable containers.
10 Focus on Specialty segment
We are focused on specialty niche segment, as we believe that our margins can improve by targeting
customers in that segment. Based on our understanding of the dynamic nature of the industry in which we
operate, we devise our business strategy accordingly. It is realized that the Commodity PET Resin market is
increasingly turning regional and exports are going to be increasingly difficult. Nevertheless, we have
completed R&D initiative to launch a wide range of Speciality PET Resins such as Fast Reheat Resin for
140

High Speed blow moulding, Hot Fill Resin for fruit juice application, Wave PET Resin for dual ovenable
trays, Jar PET Resin as Poly Carbonate substitute for five gallon water jars, Beer PET Resin for Beer with
C0 2 /0 2 barrier, cationic dyeable resin easy dyeable resin for textile applications, Green PET Resin, with
20% recycled content for US eco-label compliance and heavy metal free Resin.
Collaborations/tie-ups/associations
As on the date of Draft Letter of Offer, we have not entered into any collaboration/tieups/association
Factors affecting our results of operations
Our business, results of operations and financial conditions are affected by the following factors: -
Our business plans may need substantial capital and additional financing in the form of debt and/or equity to
meet our requirements.
Our business requires a substantial amount of working capital. In many cases, working capital is required to
finance the purchase of materials. Our working capital requirements may increase if, in certain contracts,
payment terms do not provide for advance payments to us or if payment schedules are less favorable to us. We
may need additional financing in the future in the form of debt and/or equity to fulfill our working capital needs.
Continued increases in working capital requirements may have an adverse effect on our financial condition and
results of operations.
If we are unable to attract and retain key employees, our operations could be adversely affected.
Our business substantially depends on the continued service of our key managerial personnel. The loss of the
services of our key managerial personnel could have a material adverse effect on us. Our future success will also
depend on our ability to attract highly skilled personnel, such as engineering, project management and senior
management professionals. We could experience difficulty from time to time in hiring the personnel necessary
to support our business. If we do not succeed in attracting new high quality employees, our reputation may be
adversely impacted harmed and our future earnings may be negatively impacted.
Increase in the cost of raw materials, particularly petroleum-based raw materials, have put pressure on our
margins and could have a material adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations.
Volatility of raw material prices may have a negative impact on the financial performance of our Company.
The raw materials required to manufacture polyester; preforms and PET resins are procured from
petrochemicals, which are derived from hydrocarbons. These hydrocarbons are further extracted from crude oil
and natural gas. Constant fluctuation in the price of crude oil in the international market has a direct impact on
our cost of manufacturing. This consequent volatility in the price of our raw material may exercise a negative
impact on the profitability of our product and financial performance of our Company.
Production of polyesters, performs and PET requires raw materials which are procured from petroleum-based
products. The cost of raw materials consumed by our Company constituted approximately 53.9% of our
Company’s net sales for FY 2008 and approximately 57.2% of our Company’s net sales for FY 2007. Constant
increase in the price of crude oil in the international market, specially in the last couple of years, has a direct
impact on our cost of manufacturing. Any increase in the cost of the raw materials can adversely impact our
profit margins if we are unable to pass on the increased cost on to our customers. Further, even if we are able to
pass on the increase in raw material prices to our customers, this may reduce the demand for our products. To
the extent that our Company uses virgin raw material (vis-à-vis recycled raw material), this consequent volatility
in the price of raw materials may have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results
of operations.
The demand for PSF is substantially dependent on the prices of other fibres (primarily cotton), and reduction
in prices of other fibres may adversely affect PSF demand.
One of our key products is PSF, which accounted for 41.42% and 46.69% of our sales in FY 2007 and FY 2008.
PSF is primarily used in the textile industry, and is blended with other fibres (including cotton) in textile
production. The blending percentage in the textile industry depends, in part, upon the prices of the respective
fibres used in the blend. Any fall in the prices of other fibres (primarily cotton), on account of excess production
or otherwise, may lead to reduction of percentage of PSF in the blends, thereby adversely affecting the demand
for PSF, which would have a material adverse effect on our turnover, and consequently on our business, results
of operations and financial condition.
141

Our Company places heavy reliance on the import of raw material
Our Company has to rely heavily on the import of raw materials for manufacturing polymer. Timely
Pprocurement of raw material is the most critical aspect of our manufacturing operation and the same is subject,
inter alia, to laws monitoring the import in India as also laws governing exports in the countries/territories from
where the exports originate, soverign and territorial factors, among others. Further, aAny change in the importexport
policy by the Government of India may have a negative impact on the import of our raw materials.
At times our Company has to depend on third party manufacturers for the supply of polymer and disruption
in their operations may have a negative impact on our manufacturing operations.
Our Company has in house provision for the manufacture of polymer, which acts as a raw material for
generating performs. However, there are occasions when in order to execute orders in bulk, our Company has to
procure polymer from other manufacturers. Our Company has relied on these suppliers in times of exigencies
pertaining to the supply of polymer. Any change in the supply pattern of third party suppliers may have a
negative impact on the manufacture of performs, in case of any paucity in the in house manufacture of polymer.
Potential fluctuations in future operating results on account of increase in raw material costs, transportation
costs etc.
The factors for potential fluctuations in future operating results include are:
a. Cost of Raw Materials
Purified Terepthalic Acid and Mono Ethylene Glycol are the major raw materials used in the manufacturing
of our products. A major portion of the requirements of the basic raw materials by our Company is
imported. The cost of such materials to ourour Company depends upon the prices ruling in the international
commodity markets at the time of imports, over which our Company do not have any control. Any increase
in the price of PTA and MEG would directly affect the margins profitability of our Company.
b. Labour Union
Our Company employs a large number of work force at its manufacturing plant. The factory workers are
affiliated to particular Trade Union(s). Any concerted industrial action could always disrupt the production
volume and consequently the sales growth of our Company.
c. Transportation
Timely delivery of products is critical for our performance. We use third-party transporters for the supply of
raw materials to our factories and for delivery of finished products to our customers. Any hindrance in the
logistics network, serious strike, stoppage of work, etc by the fleet owners could cause an adverse effect on
our receipt of supplies and our ability to deliver our finished products in time, which could impact our
business. Further, high transportation cost and escalation thereof may affect our profitability. Our Company
engages a large number of heavy and light commercial trucks for movement of both raw materials to its
manufacturing plants and finished products to its distribution centers and thereafter to its end customers.
Any serious strike, stoppage of work, etc by the fleet owners could disrupt the production and sales volume
of our Company.
Our existing manufacturing unit is geographically located in Manali, Chennai. Any unrest or natural
calamity in this unit can break down our operations which will adversely affect our operations.
Our manufacturing units at Manali, Chennai and our business operations are vulnerable to damage or
interruptions in operations due to adverse weather conditions, earthquakes, tsunami, fires, explosions, power
loss, software flaws, viruses, transmission cable cuts or similar events. Any failure of our systems or any
shutdown of any part of our manufacturing units, networks, operations because of operational disruption, natural
disaster such as flood or earthquake, or otherwise, could disrupt our services and result in significant costs.
While our Company has not in the past experienced any interruptions, either due to a natural disaster or a
systems failure, tFurther, there can be no assurance that business continuity plans we have developed to cover
material breakdowns or damage to our manufacturing units, network or critical operating equipment will be
sufficient to maintain our operations in all adverse circumstances.
Any loss of or breakdown of machinery at any of the our manufacturing facility at Manali, Chennai may
have an adverse affect on business, financial condition and results of operations
142

Our Company’s manufacturing facility at Manali, Chennai is are subject to operating risks, such as the
breakdown or failure of equipment, power supply or processes, performance below expected levels of output or
efficiency, obsolescence, labour disputes, industrial accidents and the need to comply with the directives of
relevant government authorities. The occurrence of any of these risks could significantly affect its operating
results. Our business and operations may be adversely affected by any disruption of operations at our
manufacturing facilities.

Option to receive Equity Shares in Dematerialized Form
Applicants to the Equity Shares of our Company issued through this Issue shall be allotted the securities in
dematerialised (electronic) form at the option of the applicant. Our Company has signed agreements dated
March 24, 2005 and March 03, 2005 with NSDL and CDSL respectively, which enables the Investors to hold
and trade in securities in a dematerialised form, instead of holding the securities in the form of physical
certificates.
In this Issue, the allottees who have opted for Equity Shares in dematerialised form will receive their Equity
Shares in the form of an electronic credit to their beneficiary account with a depository participant. The CAF
shall contain space for indicating number of shares applied for in demat and physical form or both. Investor will
have to give the relevant particulars for this purpose in the appropriate place in the CAF. Applications, which do
not accurately contain this information, will be given the securities in physical form. Separate applications for
securities in physical and/or dematerialized form should be made. Separate applications are made, the
application for physical securities will be treated as multiple applications and is liable to be rejected. In case of
partial allotment, allotment will be done in demat option for the shares sought in demat and balance, if any, will
be allotted in physical shares.
The Equity Shares of our Company will be listed on the BSE
Procedure for availing the facility for allotment of Equity Shares in this Issue in the electronic form is as under:
1 Open a beneficiary account with any depository participant (care should be taken that the beneficiary
account should carry the name of the holder in the same manner as is exhibited in the records of our
Company. In the case of joint holding, the beneficiary account should be opened carrying the names of
the holders in the same order as with our Company). In case of Investors having various folios in our
Company with different joint holders, the Investors will have to open separate accounts for such
holdings. Those Equity Shareholders who have already opened such Beneficiary Account (s) need not
adhere to this step.
2 For Equity Shareholders already holding Equity Shares of our Company in dematerialized form as on
the Record Date, the beneficial account number shall be printed on the CAF. For those who open
accounts later or those who change their accounts and wish to receive their Equity Shares by way of
credit to such account, the necessary details of their beneficiary account should be filled in the space
provided in the CAF. It may be noted that the allotment of Equity Shares arising out of this Issue may
be made in dematerialized form even if the original Equity Shares of our Company are not
dematerialized. Nonetheless, it should be ensured that the Depository Account is in the name(s) of the
Equity Shareholders and the names are in the same order as in the records of our Company.
Responsibility for correctness of information (including applicant’s age and other details) filled in the CAF visà-vis
such information with the applicant’s depository participant, would rest with the applicant. Applicants
should ensure that the names of the applicants and the order in which they appear in CAF should be the same as
registered with the applicant’s depository participant.
If incomplete / incorrect beneficiary account details are given in the CAF or where the investor does not opt to
receive the Rights Equity shares in dematerialized form, the applicant will get Equity Shares in physical form.
Applicants must necessarily fill in the details (including the beneficiary account number or client ID number)
appearing in the CAF under the heading ‘Request for shares in Electronic Form’.
Applicants should ensure that the names of the Applicants and the order in which they appear in the CAF should
be the same as registered with the Applicant’s depository participant.
The Rights Equity Shares pursuant to this Issue allotted to investors opting for dematerialized form, would be
directly credited to the beneficiary account as given in the CAF after verification. Allotment advice, refund
order (if any) would be sent directly to the applicant by the Registrar to the Issue but the applicant’s depository
participant will provide to him the confirmation of the credit of such Equity Shares to the applicant’s depository
account.
238

Renouncees will also have to provide the necessary details about their beneficiary account for allotment of
securities in this Issue. In case these details are incomplete or incorrect, the application is liable to be rejected.
Renouncees can also exercise the option to receive Equity Shares in the demat form by indicating in the relevant
column in the CAF and providing the necessary details about their beneficiary account. It may be noted that
Equity Share arising out of this Issue can be received in demat form even if the existing Equity Shares are held
in physical form. Nonetheless, it should be ensured that the depository participant account is in the name of the
Applicant(s) in the same order as per specimen signatures appearing in the records of the depository
participant/Company. It may be noted that shares in electronic form can be traded only on the Stock Exchange
having electronic connectivity with NSDL or CDSL.
Dividend or other benefits with respect to the Equity Shares held in dematerialised form would be paid to those
Equity Shareholders whose names appear in the list of beneficial owners given by the depository participant to
our Company as on the Record Date.
INVESTORS MAY PLEASE NOTE THAT THE EQUITY SHARES OF OUR COMPANY CAN BE
TRADED ON THE STOCK EXCHANGE ONLY IN DEMATERIALIZED FORM.
