India-U.K. FTA Offers Potential Amidst U.S. Tariff Challenges
Two Indian apparel companies, Gokaldas Exports and Page Industries, discussed their financial results.
Gokaldas Exports saw strong growth, but faces a challenge from U.S. tariffs that could reduce their profits.
To help, the company is hoping that a new trade agreement with the U.K. will help them offset these problems.
Page Industries also had a good year, increasing its sales and profits.
Both companies showed how they handled economic difficulties and adapted quickly.
U.S. tariffs pose a challenge, causing business volatility and margin pressure for Gokaldas Exports.
The India-U.K. FTA is seen as a potential opportunity to offset the impact of U.S. tariffs.
Gokaldas Exports reported a 27% YoY total income growth and 84% growth in profit before tax in Q4 FY25.
Page Industries reported a 51.6% YoY increase in net income and 10.6% growth in revenue in Q4.
