Commenting on the results, Mr. Riju Jhunjhunwala, Chairman & Managing Director and CEO, RSWM Limited, said,
“RSWM’s FY26 performance highlights strong execution capabilities and operational resilience in an otherwise challenging global textile environment. Despite uneven demand trends, geopolitical pressures and cautious sourcing behaviour, the Company has maintained strategic clarity and disciplined execution. Its continued focus on differentiated offerings, manufacturing efficiency and prudent cost governance signals a conscious shift toward improving the quality of earnings, enhancing predictability and reducing exposure to cyclical volatility.
The India–EU Free Trade Agreement represents a structural positive for Indian textile and apparel exporters, particularly given Europe’s high import dependence. While tariff reductions improve competitiveness across yarn, fabric and apparel segments, the requirement to comply with stringent EU norms on sustainability, traceability and labour standards raises the competitive threshold. This is likely to favour organised, integrated and scale-driven players, positioning RSWM to gain relative advantage as smaller or less-prepared players face higher compliance barriers.
From a strategic standpoint, RSWM’s emphasis on circularity, renewable energy adoption and responsible resource management underscores a long-term, sustainability-led growth approach. The Company’s focus on financial prudence, customer engagement and value-added products reflects a balanced strategy aimed at building durable competitiveness while preparing for the next phase of growth, thereby strengthening long-term stakeholder value creation.”
