Indian leather stocks slide as weak exports and delayed EU FTA benefits curb optimism
Super Tannery fell 4.98% to Rs 9.92, while AKI India, Amin Tannery and Euro-Leder Fashion also declined. Weak FY26 leather exports, soft June-quarter exporter results and expectations that zero-duty EU access may not arrive until Q1 2027 triggered a repricing in the segment.
What happened

What changed
Indian leather stocks fell as weak FY26 exports, weak June-quarter exporter results and uncertainty over India-EU FTA implementation tempered expectations. Analysts said zero-duty EU access is unlikely before Q1 2027, making recent microcap gains vulnerable to repricing.
Why this matters
The sharp declines across leather stocks reflect a reset in expectations, with weak FY26 exports and a likely delay in zero-duty EU access to Q1 2027 undermining the near-term earnings case.
