Industry overview

Engineered fabrics are a subset of technical textiles, which are advanced textiles designed to deliver functional performance rather than just aesthetic appeal, serving specific industrial, commercial, and protective needs. Amongst the different categories of technical textiles, engineered fabrics are specially developed and custommade textiles designed through advanced manufacturing techniques to meet specific functional requirements and, beyond functionality, are created for enhanced performance in specialised applications. They are characterised by superior properties such as durability, moisture resistance, breathability, flexibility, and high tensile strength. Engineered fabrics are also different from conventional fabrics, which are created with aesthetic appeal and comfort as the primary considerations.

India’s engineered fabrics industry, as measured by domestic consumption (including imports) and excluding exports, was valued at Rs 558.8 billion ($6.3 billion) in Fiscal 2020 and reached Rs 990.0 billion ($11.2 billion) in Fiscal 2026, growing at a CAGR of 10.0% during Fiscal 2020-2026. The market is expected to grow further and reach a value of Rs 1,864.7 billion ($21.1 billion) by Fiscal 2031, registering a CAGR of 13.5% during Fiscal 2026-2031. In Fiscal 2026, the industrial and automobile segment dominated the Indian engineered fabrics industry, as measured by domestic consumption (including imports) and excluding exports, with a 56.6% share, followed by the outdoor and lifestyle segment at 32.6%, and the defence and aerospace segment at 5.9%. By Fiscal 2031, the industrial and automobile segment is projected to rise to 57.8.8%, while the outdoor and lifestyle segment is expected to account for 27.9%, and the defence and aerospace segment to 7.8%.

The Indian engineered fabrics industry, as measured by domestic consumption (including imports) and excluding exports, is growing through strong government policies, R&D advancements in high-speciality fabrics, an expanding global market (due to factors including the diversification of supply chains by major manufacturers), increased adoption of sustainable, high-tech textiles and the diversification of supply chains by major manufacturers. Standardisation and quality control measures are also driving domestic production and export competitiveness, while India leverages the China+1 strategy to position itself as a reliable alternative manufacturing hub for global buyers seeking supply chain diversification.

Pros and strengths 

Technical capabilities allow to develop and supply unique solutions for customers: The company offers synthetic engineered fabrics and solutions that cater to the high-performance requirements of its customers. It has strategically focused on building a niche around synthetic functional and performance fabrics, addressing growing demand in the aerospace and defence, industrial and outdoor sectors.

Risks and concerns

Dependent on Aerospace and Defence Fabrics, Aerospace and Defence Solutions, and Industrial and Automotive Fabrics segments: The company is highly dependent on its Aerospace and Defence Fabrics, Aerospace and Defence Solutions, and Industrial and Automotive Fabrics segments. The company derived 31.67%, 24.43% and 22.97% of its revenue from contracts with customers for Fiscal 2026 from its Aerospace and Defence Fabrics, Industrial and Automotive Fabrics, and Aerospace and Defence Solutions market segments, respectively. If there is any decline in demand for aerospace and defence fabrics, industrial and automotive fabrics, and aerospace and defence solutions, it could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows

Significant revenue contribution from top 10 customers: The have derived and expect to continue to derive a significant portion of its revenue from its top 10 customers, which exposes it to customer concentration risks. The company's top ten customers contributed 59.52%, 84.69%, and 80.18% of its revenue from contracts with customers for Fiscal 2026, Fiscal 2025, and Fiscal 2024, respectively. The company generally does not have long-term agreements with its customers and it did not have long-term agreements with any of its top 10 customers for Fiscals 2026, 2025 or 2024. As a result, its top customer generally varies from year to year, leading to volatility in its top customer contribution. Any decrease in sales to such customers or the loss of such customers could have an adverse effect on its business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

Export revenue vulnerable to global market risks: The company’s exports to international markets accounted for 39.99%, 23.22% and 25.62% of revenue from contracts with customers for Fiscals 2026, 2025 and 2024, respectively. As an exporter, it is particularly exposed to risks arising from changes in government regulations or policies affecting international trade. For Indian exporters, higher tariffs could dampen business sentiment and reduce international demand for manufactured products. Countries impose, modify, and remove tariffs and other trade restrictions in response to a diverse array of factors, including global and national economic and political conditions, which make it impossible for the company to predict future developments regarding tariffs and other trade restrictions. Any changes in government regulations or policies affecting international trade or any downturn in the macroeconomic environment or geopolitical risks in India, the United States or the European Union may have an adverse effect on its business, results of operations and financial condition.

Regional disruptions in Gujarat may adversely impact manufacturing facilities: All six of its manufacturing facilities are in Gujarat. Due to the geographic concentration of its manufacturing facilities, its operations are susceptible to local and regional factors, such as economic and weather conditions, natural disasters, political changes and other unforeseen events and circumstances. Further, any such adverse development affecting continuing operations at its manufacturing facilities could result in significant loss due to an inability to meet production schedules, which could adversely affect its business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. 

Outlook
