Interior:
A textile or cloth is a flexible material consisting of a network of natural or artificial fibres often
referred to as thread or yarn. Yarn is produced by spinning raw fibres of wool, flax, cotton, or other
14
material to produce long strands, Textiles are formed by weaving. knitting, crocheting, knotting. or
pressing fibres together (felt).
Prior to the manufacturing processes being mechanized, textiles were produced in the home, and
excess sold for extra money. Most cloth was made from wool. cotton, or flax, depending on the era
and location
The textile, textile product, and apparel manufacturing industries include establishments that
process fibre into fabric and fabric into clothing and other textile products. While most apparel
manufacturers worldwide rely on people to cut and sew pieces of fabric together. There are three
individual industries covered—textile mills, textile product mills, and apparel manufacturing.
Textile mills provide the raw material to make apparel and textile products. They take natural and
synthetic materials, such as cotton and polyester, and transform them into fibre, yarn, and thread.
Yarns are strands of fibres in a form ready for weaving, knitting, or otherwise intertwining to form a
textile fabric. They form the basis for most textile production and commonly are made of cotton,
wool, or a synthetic fibre such as polyester. Yarns also can be made of thin strips of plastic, paper,
or metal. To produce spun yarn, natural fibres such as cotton and wool must first be processed to
remove impurities and give products the desired texture and durability, as well as other
characteristics. After this initial cleaning stage, the fibres are spun into yarn.
Textile mills then go on to produce fabric by means of weaving and knitting. Workers in weaving
mills use complex, automated looms to transform yams into cloth. Looms weave or interlace two
yarns, so they cross each other at right angles to form fabric. Knitting mills use automated machines
to produce fabric of interlocking loops of one or more yarns.
At any time during the production process, a number of processes, called finishing, may be
performed on the fabric. These processes—which include dyeing, bleaching, and stonewashing,
among others—may be performed by the textile mill or at a separate finishing fabric to improve
appearance. texture. or performance.
Textile product mills convert raw textiles into finished products Other than apparel. Some of the
items made in this sector include household items. such as carpets and rugs, towels. curtains and
sheets. cord amt twine. furniture and automotive upholstery. and industrial belts and fire hoses,
Because the process of converting raw fibres into finished textile products is complex, most textile
mills specialize.
15
The apparel manufacturing industry transforms fabrics produced by textile manufacturers into
clothing and accessories. The apparel industry traditionally has consisted mostly of production
workers who performed the cutting and sewing functions in an assembly line. This industry remains
labour intensive, despite advances in technology and workplace practices. Although many workers
still perform this work in the United States, the industry increasingly contracts out its production
work to foreign suppliers to take advantage of lower labour costs in other countries.
Many of the remaining production workers work in teams. For example, sewing machine operators
are organized into production "modules." Each operator in a module is trained to perform nearly all
of the functions required to assemble a garment. Each module is responsible for its own
performance, and individuals usually receive compensation based on the team's performance.
Recent Developments
The textile and apparel manufacturing industries are among the most labour-intensive
manufacturing industries, and therefore an increasing amount of textile products is produced by
foreign suppliers. Nonetheless, some textile manufacturing still takes place in the United States. To
remain competitive, however. domestic manufacturers rely on being extremely labour-efficient.
Advanced machinery is boosting productivity levels in textiles and fundamentally changing the
nature of work for employees. New technology also has led to increasingly technical training for
workers throughout the industry. Computers and computer-controlled equipment aid in many
functions. such as design, patternmaking. and cutting. Other emerging technologies which improve
plant efficiency include wider looms, computerized equipment, and increased use of robotics to
move material within the plant.
The domestic apparel industry also benefits from laws requiring that clothing worn by the Armed
Services be produced in the United States—a law that was recently extended to cover uniforms
worn by Transportation Security Administration officers. Although demand for these uniforms is
greatly outweighed by a much larger consumer goods market, it nonetheless will continue to employ
some textile workers in more labour-intensive segments, such as cut and-sew apparel
manufacturing.
16
Other domestically produced items tend to be custom or high-end items. One advantage the
domestic industry has is its closeness to the market and its ability to react to changes in fashion
more quickly than its foreign competitors. Also, as retailers consolidate and become more cost
conscious. they require more apparel manufacturers to move toward just-in-time delivery systems,
in which purchased apparel items are quickly replaced by new items directly from the manufacturer,
rather than from a large inventory kept by the retailer. Through electronic data interchange—mainly
using barcodes —in formations quickly communicated to the manufacturers, providing information
not only on inventory, but also about the desires of the public for particular fashions.
Some apparel firms have responded to growing competition by merging with other apparel firms
and by moving into the retail market. In addition to the production of garments they also are
contracting out functions—for example, warehousing and order fulfilment—to concentrate on their
strengths: design and marketing. Computer-aided design systems have led to the development of
"product life cycle management," under which potential new fashions can now be transmitted
around the planet over the Internet. Such changes may help the apparel manufacturing industry meet
the growing competition and continue to supply the Nation's consumers with garments at an
acceptable cost.

PORTERS FIVE FORCE MODEL
Michael E Porter of Harvard Business School Created Porter's Five Forces of Competitive
Position Analysis in 1979 as a basic framework for assessing and evaluating a business
organization's competitive strength and position.
Porter's Five Forces is a model that identifies and analyses the five competitive forces that
shape any sector and aids in determining the industry's weaknesses and strengths. Five
Forces analysis is widely used to define corporate strategy by identifying an industry's
structure. Porter's approach can be applied to any sector of the economy to better analyse
industry competitiveness and increase a company's long-term profitability.
Porters five forces analysis is a strategy management tool for analysing industries and
understanding the underlying profitability levers in a certain business. The Porters Five
Factors model can be used by harish exports to understand how the five competitive forces
influence profitability and to design a strategy for increasing the company's competitive edge
and long-term profitability.
32
What are Porters five forces?
Michael Porter discovered five forces that have a substantial impact on a firm's profitability
in its industry in his ground-breaking study "five forces that shape strategy." In today's
business world, this five forces analysis is also known as a Porter Five Force analysis.
According to Porter, there are five forces that reflect the primary sources of competitive
pressure inside a sector. They are
Buyer Power
Supplier Power
Competitive Rivalry
Threat of New Entries
Threat of Substitution
Five Forces Analysis of the Harish Exports Industry Porter’s Five Forces analysis is an approach to
determining just how competitive a given market is, and consequently, how profitable it may be for a
business. This framework draws on five factors, known as the ‘five forces’, to achieve this. These five
forces are:
Buyer power — the ability of buyers to decrease the prices they pay
33
Supplier power — the ability of suppliers to increase the cost of their product or service
Competitive rivalry — the intensity of competitive activity which might affect how much
business a company receives, or how high sustainable margins are
The threat of new entries/entrants — the threat posed by new entrants in a market
The threat of substitution — the threat posed by the possibility of substituting a product or
service in one market with something else
The fashion retail Industry has a market value of several hundred billion of dollars, with the
average price per product coming in at a healthy $19. This article will attempt to analyse the viability of
the fashion retail industry as a whole, by means of a Five Forces analysis.
Buyer Power
The first important force is the bargaining ability of buyers, who can choose to push down prices,
not buy products, or switch retailers. In the case of the fashion industry, buyer power is a relatively large
force. While clothes shoppers are typically individuals with little to none direct bargaining power (as
compared to huge companies, buying in bulk, who might be the main clients in other industries), they have
many alternative locations to shop for apparel and little incentive to stay with one particular company,
giving them plenty of indirect bargaining power.
Supplier Power
In the fashion retail industry, supplier power is a relatively small and insignificant force. Most
apparel companies source their products from third world manufacturers who receive just fractions of the
profit. Suppliers have little control over the fashion industry as, unfortunately, they are dispensable and
can always be swapped out. As a result, input prices for this industry are relatively low and will stay there
until the global development gap closes up significantly.
Competitive Rivalry The fashion industry is an interesting one when it comes to analyzing
through the intensity of competitive rivalry. There are large numbers of retailers who sell very similar
products, but there’s also the concept of brands, which allow some companies to sell apparel for ridiculous
34
rates. Nowadays there is little innovation in this space, so the market is quickly becoming saturated with
very similar products.
In this sense, the fashion industry is a very difficult one to get into, and is almost becoming a ‘race
to the bottom’ — not good news for retailers.
As mentioned previously, there is little that is unique to bring to the table in this industry, so this
force is also somewhat small. However, new entries might find unique ways to popularize their own
products (which might not even be particularly special), and as such build novel brands — perhaps through
clever use of social media. The fashion Industry in its current state is ‘high risk, high reward’ for new
entrants — it’s not too difficult to get a foot in the door and copy others, but will the markets care for those
products?
Threat of Substitution
Fortunately for those in the fashion retail industry, there is little to substitute clothes with. This
force is almost negligible — all ‘substitution’ in the fashion industry is really just competition. To sum up,
the fashion industry seems difficult to successfully dive into, and bleak for companies already within this
space. This Five Forces analysis has shown that while there are few threats and little supplier bargaining
power, it is not good that the market is effectively nearing saturation. Buyers have large amounts of
indirect power to bargain with — i.e. plenty of choices — and lots of competitors make it hard to sustain a
place in the market.

RATIO ANALYSIS:
Ratio analysis is a quantitative tool for gaining insight into a company's liquidity,
operational efficiency, and profitability by examining financial statements such as the
balance sheet and income statement. Ratio analysis is a key component of fundamental
equity analysis.
Ratio analysis is used by investors and analysts to assess a company's financial health by
examining past and current financial statements. Comparative data can be used to show
how a company performs over time and to forecast anticipated future performance. This
information can also be used to compare a company's financial position to industry
averages and to see how it compares to others in the same industry.
Ratio analysis is a type of financial statement analysis that is used to provide a rapid
picture of a company's financial performance in a number of categories. Short-term
solvency ratios, Debt management ratios, Asset management ratios, Profitability ratios,
and Market value ratios are the different types of ratios.

Financial ratios are an excellent technique to rapidly analyse a company's health before
delving into its financial records. Price-earnings ratios can help investors understand pricing,
while debt-coverage ratios can alert them to potential liquidity concerns. The act of
determining and presenting the relationship of items and groupings of things in financial
statements is known as ratios analysis of financial statements.
The three key ratios that we should calculate to get a fast picture of the company's financial
situation are as follows.
1. Current ratio
2. Acid test ratio / Quick ratio / Liquidity ratio
3. Proprietary ratio
1. Current ratio:
The current ratio is a liquidity ratio that assesses a company's capacity to pay short-term or
one-year obligations. It explains to investors and analysts how a firm might maximise its
43
current assets on its balance sheet in order to pay down its current debt and other payables. A
standard ratio for current ratio is 2:1.

Current ratio = Current liabilities

Interpretation:
The standard current ratio is 2:1. This means that current assets have twice the capacity to meet their current
liabilities. It is seen from the above table that during the year 2018, the current ratio was 0.69:1 and in the
year 2019 it was 7.30:1. The current ratio increased from 0.69 to 7.30. That means, compared to last year,
the current ratio has slightly increased. So, the company's liquid ratio is in a good position, so they can pay
their liquid requirements.
2. Quick ratio:
The quick ratio is a measure of a company's capacity to satisfy its short-term obligations
using its most liquid assets and is an indicative of its short-term liquidity position. It is also
known as the acid test ratio because it reveals the company's capacity to immediately employ
its near-cash assets (assets that can be converted swiftly to cash) to pay down its current
liabilities. An "acid test" is a slang phrase for a rapid test that produces immediate results.

Quick assets
Quick ratio = Quick liabilities
Interpretation:
The ideal figure for the quick ratio is 1:1. It means that the liquid assets are just the same as
quick or current liabilities. It is seen from the above table chart that during the year 2019, the
quick ratio was 0.69:1 and in the year 2020 it was 7.30:1. The current ratio has increased
from 2019 to 2020, or 0.69 to 7.30. Hence, it can be said that the company does not have
quick assets compared to current liabilities. So, the quick asset position of the industry is
adequate.
3. Proprietary ratio:
The proprietary ratio (also known as the equity ratio) is the ratio of shareholders' equity to
total assets, and it provides a general assessment of the amount of capitalization currently
employed to fund a corporation. If the ratio is high, it means that a company has enough
equity to fund its operations and likely has flexibility in its financial structure to take on
extra debt if necessary. A low ratio, on the other hand, implies that a corporation is using too
much debt or trade payables to sustain operations rather than equity (which may place the
company at risk of bankruptcy).

Interpretation:
There is no ideal ratio for the proprietary ratio. The company had gone for financial leverage
for the last 2 years. The company was showing an increase in trend in the capital. The
company was showing an increase in trend from 0.29 to 0.54, which means the higher the
proprietary ratio, which indicates a strong financial position of the company and greater
security for the creditors of the company.

LEARNING EXPERIENCE
Throughout my internship, I had the opportunity to see first - hand what it takes to manage a
firm with a high level of professionalism. Working in an office atmosphere provides an
opportunity to learn about office manners from those with more job experience. During my
internship, the employees were incredibly supportive and friendly. They were extremely
knowledgeable about their profession and were eager to share their knowledge with me.
During my internship, I was able to gain a wide range of skills. The most essential thing I
learnt was that if you are ready to engage with (customer clients) and listen to what they
truly need, you can build relationships that benefit both parties. I studied skills such as
business communication, event planning, marketing, and customer service.
As my external advisor was a finance executive, I spent the most of my time in the finance
department. They gave me all of the foundations of finance. This helped me to comprehend many
parts of billing systems, receipts and payments, preparing quotations, preparing purchase orders, and
so on.
This internship taught me to be punctual, to treat everyone with respect, to handle with
pressure, to manage tasks on my own, and to manage things to the best of my ability.
48
An internship programme, in my perspective, is an excellent way for graduating students to
transition into the job with a sense of professionalism, motivation, and a desire to succeed in
the future.
