Century Enka Ltd had informed BSE dated November 14, 2013 and December 16, that Continuous Polymerisation Unit – Polyester (CPU-Polyester) at Bharuch Site was stopped on November 12, 2013 for preventive maintenance after a gap of four years. As the result, Continuous Polyester Spinning Lines were also stopped.
During the course of preventive maintenance, the Company has also taken up modification of Polyester Spinning Lines to improve flexibility in manufacturing process. The Company has decided to carry out some more modification work on Polyester Spinning Lines.
As a result, shut down of CPU and Continuous Polyester Spinning Lines will remain for some more time of about 3-4 months.
However, the stoppage of CPU and Continuous Polyester Spinning Lines will not have any adverse impact on overall profitability of the Company due to severely squeezed margins in polyester yarns.
For the quarter ended Dec 2012 the standalone sales turnover was Rs 379.43 crore and net profit was Rs 10.06 crore, and other income Rs 2.50 crore.
