Leather Stocks Slide as Export Concerns and FTA Delay Weigh
Several Indian leather-company stocks fell on Tuesday.
Super Tannery, AKI India, and Amin Tannery each dropped by nearly 5%.
Euro-Leder Fashion was also under pressure.
The wider Indian stock market was cautious that day.
These companies had risen sharply in recent weeks, so some investors may have taken profits.
Leather exports declined in FY26, and recent results from listed exporters were weak.
A trade agreement with the European Union may eventually provide duty-free access, but that benefit is not expected soon.
Investors are now watching exports and upcoming second-quarter results to see whether the sector improves.
Super Tannery, AKI India, and Amin Tannery shares fell nearly 5% during Tuesday’s trading session.
Euro-Leder Fashion was also under pressure amid cautious sentiment across Indian markets.
The stocks are correcting after sharp rallies over the past few weeks.
Analyst Gaurav Garg cited weaker leather exports and uncertainty over India-EU FTA implementation.
Garg said investors should monitor export data and second-quarter results rather than tariff headlines.

Long-Term Sector Potential
Near-Term Market Caution
India-EU trade agreement
Long-Term Sector Potential
The India-EU FTA could eventually provide zero-duty access for Indian leather and support the sector.
Near-Term Market Caution
The agreement has only reached a procedural stage, and its benefits are not expected to appear in company order books immediately.
Recent stock rally
Long-Term Sector Potential
The leather-sector theme remains promising, according to the analyst cited.

The recent rally may have priced in benefits before exports and company results showed improvement, prompting pressure on illiquid microcap stocks.

Quotes
Gaurav Garg
Head of Research at Lemonn
“The India–EU FTA took only a procedural step on 11 September, when the European Commission sent it to the Council for signature. Zero-duty access for Indian leather is realistically a Q1 2027 event, and it will take more quarters after that to show up in order books. Meanwhile, the sector's exports shrank in FY26, and June-quarter numbers from listed exporters were weak.”

“The selling is the market repricing illiquid microcaps to that reality. The theme is real, but the rally priced in benefits that haven't arrived. In the coming months, we'd watch export data and Q2 results rather than tariff headlines.”
