Nishat has grown from a cotton export house into the premier business group of Pakistan
concentrating on 4 core businesses; Textiles, Cement, Banking and Power Generation. Today,
Nishat is considered to be at par with multinationals operating locally in terms of its quality
products and management skills. The company is free from the energy crisis because it has set up
its own power generation units that are not even fulfilling the energy requirement of Nishat mills
but they are also selling this to Government. The company is holding the position with the
spinning, weaving and dying units with the extraordinary production capacity.
Different departments are working well to achieve the strategic aims of the company. They are
adopting the latest Management information system to access data that results in producing
timely results for different departments.
The PEST analysis shows that company has lived away from any kind of complications that may
have affect the companys goodwill by fulfilling the legal, environmental requirements and using
international financial rules in the production of financial statements
.The SWOT analysis depicts that strengths are greater in number as compared to weaknesses and
threats that shows the company does well know its position and keep the system up to date. Still
there are some lacks that company should overcome

Strategies
Product Strategy
Pricing Strategy
Before setting prices of products, various elements are kept into mind.Customer is of utmost
importance. If customer is old, his track record is good and enjoys a favorable repute so profit
margin may be reduced. Prices area determined on cost basis by adding certain percentage of
profit. This is highly sensitive area.
Unstitched fabric is 2100-3100 it would be revised with more variety having range 1500-
3500
Stitched fabric is 1500-5000 it would be revised with economic and unique aspect having
range 1200-10000
Bed linen is 1200-3000 it would be revised from regular and exclusive range of bed linen
from 1000-5000
Bridal wear will be launched having introductory prices 20000-40000
Distribution Strategy
Nishat has their own outlets in Punjab and Sindh, and the product will be delivered only to
registered outlets. As the manager of one outlet has enlightened the point why dont sell their
product other than Nishat outlet as their competitor is doing that he replied we never want to
enter in a market because as soon as we entered in it then our fake product will take birth as it
happened with other competitors. Our exclusive designs and products would still be sold at our
authorized outlets .Furthermore to facilitate the customers, online shopping facility and door step
delivery of order will also be started by the introduction of BUY ONLINE option on our website
for that purpose we have acquired services of T.C.S for order delivery.

Star:
Nishats Star unit, doubtless, is Nishat, their clothing line for women. It is a unit that sells
throughout the year and as quoted by the Manager of their Clifton outlet, Nisha sells at the same
rate even during times of recession. According to him, Nishat has experienced more profit
during recession because of continued high sales of their clothing line for women. Launched in
2004, Nisha grew by leaps and bounds and now stands alongside brands like Gul Ahmed,
It has been categorized as a Star product line of Nishat as the market for women fabric and
apparel is huge, ever growing and presents quite a lot of potential. It has a high market share due
to its exclusivity and quality that distinguishes it from its competition. As a consequence, it
requires heavy investment to support its image as a brand with an attitude.
Question Mark:
Naqsh, the clothing line of Nishat for men, can be categorized as its Problem Child or Question
Mark. Its a unit that hasnt shown much potential and as a result hasnt managed to gain as
much market share or generate as much cash as was expected and required of it. The market for
eastern wear for men has seen a rapid growth since the past few years and presents so much of
unexplored potential
Dog:
Finally, fashion clothing of Nishat can be termed as Dog; unit with a low market share in a
moderately growing industry of accessories.
The demand for fashion accessories like hand bags, clutches etc, though has always been there,
but it does not have that much of a growth potential. With much of the investment being done in
the other three units, Nishat hasnt paid heed to this particular market offering. Known by the
masses as a brand for clothing and bed linen, only a niche segment of the market is aware of
Nishats accessories even when ingenuity and style is maintained here as well. Hence, this unit
generates just enough cash to maintain its market share.
Competitive Review
Fashion industry of Pakistan is develop on daily basis as it faces a series of continuous changes
in the market trends. Following the track of the fashion industry, females also have been
grooming alongside where the long ago held concept of a female happiness in kitchen has been
changed to a fashionable and modern individual who takes care of her grooming, her dressing
and her appearances. The customers are now focused on designs and how each would represent
and set off their image in the minds of their friends and relatives. These are the main areas of
concerns the customer face while choosing something to wear for themselves or even for their
families. With the endorsing of celebrities the competition in the market have increased
Vision Statement

finished product manufacturingCompany with highly professionals and fully equipped to play a
meaningful role on sustainable basis in the economy of Pakistan.
Mission Statement
To provide quality products to customers and explore newmarkets to promote/expand sales of
the Company through good governance and foster a sound and dynamic team, so as
toachieveoptimum prices of products of the Company for sustainable and equitable growth and
prosperity of the Company.
WEAKNESSES
Nishat linen is not catering the middle and the lower income group that can be seen by
looking at the price range of their products:
Unstitched fabric: Rs. 2138 to 3150
Stitched fabric: Rs. 1400 to 5000
Bed Sheets: Rs. 1150 to 2950
OPPORTUNITIES
Nishat linen can look to get affiliated with more diversified designers who are into
accessories as well.
Publish their own catalog for bed linen and fabric and put them at different book stores so
that customers have easy access to their designs.
Nishat can get into western clothing line which will give them an edge over their
competitors.
Their Lahore unit is manufacturing denim fabric for Levis which is of superior quality.
This gives an opportunity to Nishat to launch their own denim brand in the market.
They should look to open an outlet in an area like North Nazimabad where the market has
a lot of potential and people have the purchasing power as well.
THREATS
Strong promotional campaigns of competitors producing fabrics through exhibitions.
Fabric designs of their competitors are available at other retail stores as well where as
their fabrics are available at their outlets only.
Most of their bed linens is exported therefore the local market tend to suffer where as
their competitors like ideas and Chen One are more focused on the local market gaining
competitive advantage.
(TOPIC):Required Rate of Return (RRR)
The required rate of return is the minimum return an investor is willing to accept on an investment.
This rate is used in the calculation of the present value of future cash flows needed to evaluate the
investment options. So, we need to determine the required rate of return to be used in the decision.
We can always just pick a number. But, as financial professionals, we need to be a little more scientific
in our approach.
Three methods available for use in determining the required rate of return are the:
Each of these methods use data to support the minimum rate of return and are considered rational.
The financial information on NESHAT MILLS and indexes available on Yahoo and Google are very
helpful. Indexes such as the Dow Jones Average or S&P 500 provide analysts with a broader market
view of performance. This broader view is helpful when comparing projects against the market
growth overall. A company could choose to invest in the market instead.
The profit discount formula uses the expected annual dividend of a stock, the stock price and a growth
factor to calculate the required rate of return. Sometimes referred to as the Gordon Growth model, it
estimates the return on an individual investment in the stock market. This rate can be used to
compare different investment opportunities. The growth factor is the anticipated increase in
dividends expected over the next year. We will estimate this growth using a five year trend.
To calculate this rate, we identify a stock and gather the dividend payout and the stock price. The
Southern Company is used in our analysis. It has a annual dividend payout of $2.24 on a stock price of
$48.47.
Below are the opening stock prices as of January 1 for the neshat Company. We will use this
information to estimate growth for the upcoming year by averaging the growth rate over the past five
years.
The stock price has a mixture of gains and losses. However, the company has consistently paid
dividends. Using this information above, the RRR is 6.7%. The example below shows the calculations.
The capital asset pricing model (CAPM) also uses financial data from the neshat to help establish the
required rate of return. This model uses the return on a risk free investment, the expected rate of
return in the market and the Beta of a stock. The Beta is a measurement of the volatility of a security
compared to the mills. It's a measurement between -1 and 1. If the sneshat mills realizes a price
increase overall, a brand with Beta equal to minus one will decrease. However, if the Beta is plus one,
then the individual rate under analysis will increase in price along with the market. A Beta of zero
shows low volatility.
The return on a treasury bill is 1.98%, so let's set the risk free rate at 2%. Using this information, the
calculation for the RRR is 4.1%.
Kavg = Ka / n
= 3% / 19
