Whereas, the company has planned to enhance installing capacity of the second phase of the Denim project to 40,000 units per day.  The project is completed in terms of infrastructure since nearly 83% of the budget has already been consumed. The management is striving to bring the first phase into profit before going into the second phase of the Denim Project.
