Indian leather industry to take a hit

Revenues likely to fall 10–12% this fiscal after the US imposed steep 50% tariffs.
The US is a key export market, and despite stronger domestic demand, export volumes may shrink sharply.

Record highs and doubled imports driven by:
1. Equity market volatility

India's in a bind: expansionary fiscal moves push for more savings and spending, yet E20 petrol cuts mileage and strains engines, adding costs for the middle class with no visible benefit.
