TVC CORNER
The Story behind Reality Bites Whether we like it or not, India has been affected by the global recession. Our current GDP for 2013 is 6.5% which was estimated at 8-9% earlier. In these trying times, Textile Industry receiving/ expecting loans and guarantees from banks and finance institutions has hit rock bottom. Hence it becomes even more imperative that we use our resources ingeniously and with utmost sincerity. Our Reality Bites section for our Anniversary Issue covers the current state of affairs of the textile industry, yarn being one of them. In the next chapter we move to the importance of project planning and management for companies to function at a higher level of functioning. Further more we have interviewed businesses that are directly and indirectly related to Textiles, who spoke about their projects and obstacles they face to complete them in timely fashion. Moving over we interviewed project consultants and project managers to talk about their success stories so that our Industry can use such services for streamlining their projects. We will conclude our reality bites section in our next issue where we will cover credit ratings for companies where the ratings help them to acquire loans. We will also cover banks & finance institutions regarding their policies of giving loans and guarantees to textile industry be it, MSME's, SME's and industrialists. With China's equation changing daily, it's a great opportunity for India to realize the importance of Professional Planning to set up new businesses in India. FEEDBACK FROM INDUSTRY TVC thanks Shri.
