Reliance Chemotex

What Reliance Chemotex does

Reliance Chemotex Industries Limited (BSE: 03162 / RCIL) is a publicly listed Indian manufacturer specializing in synthetic ring-spun yarns, founded by Shanker Lal Shroff in 1977 in Udaipur, Rajasthan, and now led across three generations of the Shroff family. The company produces polyester, viscose, acrylic, and blended yarns in fibre-dyed, greige, and dyed variants across a wide count range, with proprietary trade-name product lines including Reliwool (100% dyed acrylic for sweater knitting), Scholar Worsted and Wooly (fibre-dyed polyester/viscose for school uniforms and suiting), and LamiGold, ReliGold, and Primus (polyester/viscose yarns for artificial leather and laminated fabrics). Its manufacturing base in Udaipur comprises multiple purpose-built units totalling 14,000+ tonnes of annual spindle capacity, including a 10,080-spindle fully-automated unit dedicated to fine-count greige knitting yarns and a dedicated dyed-yarn facility commissioned in 2014.

Reliance Chemotex sells primarily to B2B textile manufacturers serving seven end-markets: artificial silk carpets, home furnishings, automotive textiles, industrial applications (conveyor belts, awnings, narrow fabrics, vinyl flooring), medical textiles, artificial leather/laminated fabrics, and apparel (including school uniforms). Exports to 35-37 countries account for the majority of volumes (9,500+ tonnes out of 14,000+ tonnes), supported by direct export sales managed from Udaipur and on-the-ground sales offices in Mumbai, Kolkata, New Delhi, Ludhiana, and Bhilwara. The go-to-market is enterprise field sales with deep co-development of yarn specifications and downstream process engineering for discerning weavers and knitters; pricing is negotiated per order rather than publicly disclosed.

Financially, the company reported turnover of 295+ Crores INR (approximately $34-35M USD) on its website, with Q3 FY2025-26 (December 2025) standalone sales of Rs 81.94 crore, down 11.16% year-over-year, while standalone net profit rose 321.05% off a low base. Over the prior decade, top line grew 101%, net PAT grew 149%, export sales grew 62%, and capacity grew 152%, reflecting consistent reinvestment and a March 2024-completed capacity expansion program. The company is a small-cap, family-controlled public enterprise with no disclosed private equity, venture capital, or subsidiary ownership.
