Filatex Fashions Approves ESOP Grant to Strengthen Leadership at Texfil
New Delhi [India], July 24: BSE-listed company Filatex Fashions Ltd. (Code: 526227) has approved the grant of 2,50,000 stock options to an eligible employee of Texfil Private Limited, its wholly owned subsidiary, under the Filatex Employee Stock Option Scheme 2015 (ESOS-2015). The Nomination and Remuneration Committee ratified the grant at its meeting held on July 23, 2025.
Each option is priced at ₹59 and convertible into one equity share upon vesting. The options will vest over a staggered period of five years, structured as follows: 15% after two years, 20% after three, 25% after four, and the remaining 40% on completion of five years.
Texfil, incorporated in 2021, has yet to begin commercial production. The subsidiary is poised to play a key role in the group's sustainability-driven expansion. The ESOP grant appears aligned with that direction, targeting leadership stability and long-term talent retention at the subsidiary level.
The scheme complies with SEBI's guidelines on employee benefits and sweat equity. While the grant is internally managed and limited to a single employee, it reflects a broader shift in Filatex's governance philosophy, quietly empowering its internal ecosystem as it gears up for future operations.
With the industry increasingly focused on sustainable practices and skilled execution, Filatex's decision to back key talent at Texfil signals strategic foresight. Rather than headline-grabbing moves, the company continues to build from within, reinforcing investor confidence through steady, structural steps.
Founded decades ago, Filatex Fashions Ltd. is one of the country's oldest players in socks manufacturing, known for working with advanced technologies from Italy, Korea, and China. The company supplies premium cotton, wool, and silk socks to global names like Marks & Spencer, FILA, Adidas, and Disney.
Its homegrown labels, Smartman and Tuscany, carry forward that same design and quality ethic into the Indian market. Filatex Fashions is ISO 9001:2008 certified and CRISIL-verified, offering both operational transparency and industry credibility to its partners and investors.

China rare earth ban to impact domestic production, exports across 5 sectors in India: SBI economists
Mumbai:China's ban on rare earth trade will impact domestic production and exports across five sectors in India, economists at SBI said on Monday. A report by the economists pegged the overall imports of rare earths and compounds at USD 31.9 million and magnet imports at USD 291 million in FY25. Volumes of India's consumption of rare earths and compounds has seen a rising trend, it said, adding that import of rare earth magnets by India increased sharply in FY25. "China dominates in India's direction of trade in rare earth minerals and compounds," it said, listing out priorities India needs to adopt. "The top sectors impacted by China's ban include transport equipment, basic metals, machinery, construction and electrical and electronics. Both domestic production and exports will be impacted," it added. It added that Indian financial institutions, including banks, are also at risk of some impact because of this. The SBI report recommended states to take additional steps to ensure better exploration of such resources, which can reduce dependency on imports. It also cited a ₹ 8,000-crore scheme by the government of Odisha as a case in point, and specified about efforts to search for minerals in the Ganjam district.

FPI selloff, result woes drag Indian equity markets down for a third day
Indian equity benchmarks slumped on Monday, weighed down by stalled India-US trade talks, sustained foreign portfolio investor (FPI) selling, and sharp declines in banking and IT heavyweights. The Sensex plunged 572 points (0.7 per cent) to close at 80,891, while the Nifty fell 156 points (0.6 per cent )to 24,681. The selloff erased ₹3.8 trillion from the total market capitalisation of BSE-listed firms, now at ₹448 trillion. Monthly losses stand at ₹13.3 trillion, with both benchmarks down nearly 6 per cent from September peaks. Investors were wary of taking positive bets amid reports that trade talks between India and the US remained deadlocked and dimmed hopes of an interim deal before US President Donald Trump's deadline. On the contrary, the deal between the US and EU eased concerns of a bigger trade tiff that could have hurt the global economy. US President Donald Trump and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen announced a trade deal on Sunday, which will see the bloc face 15 per cent tariffs on most of its exports. FPIs were net sellers on Monday, worth approximately ₹ 6,083 crore, marking their sixth consecutive day of selling and the largest single-day sale since May 30. Kotak Mahindra Bank was the largest contributor to the decline in the Sensex, followed by Bharti Airtel and Bajaj Finance. Kotak Mahindra Bank's shares declined 7.5 per cent, their biggest one-day fall since April 25, 2024, after the private lender posted a 40 per cent year–on–year (Y-o-Y) decline in its consolidated net profit to ₹4,472 crore in the April–June quarter. A rise in provisions and contingencies due to higher slippages also weighed on profits for the recently concluded quarter. TCS ended the session with a loss of 1.76 per after it announced on Sunday that it would lay off approximately 2 per cent, or around 12,260 employees, of its global workforce of 613,069 this financial year. "Domestic market sentiment has remained cautious, weighed down by a disappointing set of Q1 earnings, delays in the India-US trade agreement, and continued FII outflows. In contrast, global markets remain broadly positive, supported by US-EU trade developments that are perceived as less concerning than anticipated,' said Vinod Nair, head of research of Geojit Investments. In the future, the remainder of corporate earnings and the trajectory of the trade deal with the US will determine the market movement. "Markets are currently grappling with headwinds on both domestic and global fronts. In the banking space, earlier resilience had helped limit the decline; however, renewed pressure across the sector — except for heavyweights ICICI Bank and HDFC Bank — is adding to participants' concerns. We now view the 24,450 – 24,550 zone as a critical support area, while the 24,900 – 25,000 range is likely to act as a resistance zone in case of a rebound. Traders should maintain a cautious stance and adjust their positions accordingly,' said Ajit Mishra, SVP-Research of Religare Broking. Market breadth was weak with 2,951 declines and 1,200 advances.

Starlink can provide services only to 2 million users in India: Centre
Elon Musk's satellite communication service Starlink will be able to provide connections to only 2 million users in India, with a maximum speed of 200 megabits per second (mbps) across the country for ₹3,000 per month, said Union Minister of State for Telecommunications Pemmasani Chandra Sekhar. It is due to this high upfront cost that the services of Bharat Sanchar Nigam (BSNL), especially in rural areas, will not be impacted, Pemmasani said. 'So, there is no way satellites can provide any meaningful connectivity in India,' he said. He was speaking on the sidelines of a day-long review meeting of BSNL on Monday. The Minister of State's comments come against the backdrop of private telecommunications (telecom) service providers flagging Starlink's entry into India on the grounds that the company's satellite service directly competed with the terrestrial services being offered by the carriers. State-run BSNL competes with the private telecom operators in the Indian market. Over the last year, the government has installed 100,000 4G towers for BSNL. Both the software and hardware have been developed indigenously in the country, he said, adding that BSNL is resolving issues with 4G connections across the country on an ongoing basis. 'The integration, developing everything within two-three years, was hard. There were some issues, and we have cleaned up a lot of that. Ninety per cent of the problems have been solved. Our goal is to get everybody on the same page,' Pemmasani said. The Department of Telecommunications (DoT) is also working to resolve legacy issues, such as the lack of adequate power backup for BSNL's towers and base stations, as well as disconnected fixed-line fibre, he said. Once these issues are resolved, the next step will be to market and sell BSNL's products and offerings, ensuring the telco achieves true profitability, he said. The government and DoT are also working to improve the average revenue per user (Arpu) of the state-run telco and bring it on par with that of the private players, the minister of state said. 'It is different based on the (telecom) circle. If you have a lot of rural communities and low affordability, the revenue per user is a little bit different from some of the metro circles,' he said. In some rural circles, BSNL has an average weighted Arpu of up to ₹70 per user, whereas in select urban circles, it reaches as high as ₹170, a DoT official later stated. Despite the government's capital expenditure on BSNL, the state-run telco is unlikely to implement a tariff hike in the near future to improve its ARPU margin, Pemmasani said. 'We want people to experience the BSNL service again. People will have a choice now,' he said.
