Story:Himatsingka Seide Limited engages in the manufacture, marketing, distribution, and retail of fabric and yarn products in India, the United States, and Europe. The company provides decorative fabrics, such as fabrics for drapes and upholstery for home, as well as for contract and hospitality. It also offers fabrics for bridal wear, including taffetas, duchess satins, organzas, damasks, florals, and jacquards in various shades and textures; and fashion fabrics used in making evening wear, men's casual jackets, waistcoats, formal, and semi-formal women's wear. In addition, the company provides spun and silk blended yarn products comprising regular and fancy yarn; spun silk; and blends of silk with wool, linen, and tussar silk. As of March 31, 2009, it operated 14 stores, including 2 international stores at Dubai and Singapore under the ATMOSPHERE brand name.This again is a complete turnaround story. They did what most companies in India did in 2007, which was go by brands around the world and expand aggressively and then the recession hit, 2008-2009 has been tough years for them. Now, they are coming out of all of this and capacity utilization for their bed and linen factory is almost at 100%. They have also built captive power plants, so that will help improve margins. Their order book is very strong and they are high in bed linen silk manufacturer. So its a turnaround story that has come down from a Rs 140 level to now Rs 40. This can again easily have an earnings of about Rs 5.2 in 2011, so you are getting it less than 8 P/E at this point so again a clean, long term investment story.
