 01  Who's on the loom?

Incorporated in February 2016 as Alpine Spinweave Private Limited, the company began commercial production in April 2017 at Manufacturing Unit 1 in Ahmedabad, starting with 48 Toyota Shuttleless Airjet Looms — later scaled by 64 more looms in 2018. Today it runs a genuinely vertically integrated model, spinning yarn and weaving it into grey fabric under one roof.

Capability

Detail

Spinning

Manufacturing Unit 2 (Mar 2025) — four Open-End Rotor Spinning Machines, leased land adjacent to Unit 1

Weaving

High-speed airjet looms convert yarn to grey fabric at Unit 1 — sizing capacity 6,650 MTPA

Backward Integration

97% stake in Alpine Cottweave LLP (Oct 2024) — group weaving capacity now 96 lakh metres/yr

Green Power

820 KW + 5.4 MW + 475 KW + 3.6 MW solar stack — 9.0 MW total installed by Apr 2026

The Cottweave acquisition isn't a footnote — it's now core to the story: the subsidiary contributed ₹122.99 crore (35.89%) of consolidated FY26 revenue and ₹8.38 crore (38.58%) of consolidated PAT excluding minority interest.

 

02  The numbers on the ledger

Revenue nearly doubled in two years, and PAT climbed from ₹4.88 crore in FY24 to ₹21.71 crore in FY26 — a run independent trackers peg at roughly 152% PAT growth year-on-year into FY26.

04  Measured against the mill floor

Alpine is the smallest by revenue among its listed peer set — but leads comfortably on margins and return on equity. The trade-off: it also carries by far the highest leverage.

Independent trackers place the FY26 P/E at roughly 12.8x–18.5x depending on the equity base used — below several listed peers on earnings multiples, though the Cottweave LLP consolidation effect is worth a closer look before drawing conclusions.

 

05  Weave & tear — strengths and risks

●  Consistent multi-year top- and bottom-line growth

⚠️  Key risks

●  High sensitivity to cotton and yarn price swings

●  Capex-heavy growth model needing continuous funding

The bottom line

Alpine Texworld arrives with a genuine growth story — rapid revenue expansion, improving margins, a backward-integrated base, and a real bet on renewable energy. But a fragmented industry, elevated debt, and subsidy dependence mean this isn't one to bid on blindly. Read the RHP, watch the subscription numbers and GMP trend closer to the issue date, and talk to a registered advisor before applying.
