Any abrupt change in cotton prices due to supply-demand scenario, carry-over stocks in the overseas market, and government regulations on changes in minimum support price (MSP) can lead to distortion in market prices and affect the profitability of players across the cotton value chain, including spinners. Further, cotton being a seasonal crop; it is dependent upon the vagaries of monsoon.

>Highly competitive and fragmented industry
SKSPL operates in textile spinning industry which is highly fragmented. The Indian textile industry is highly competitive and marked by presence of large number of unorganized and organized players. Further, industry has low entry barriers increasing competition for players such as SKSPL, thereby putting pressure on bargaining power with customers.
