Textile Stocks Fall<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n

Textile Stocks Fall:<\/strong> Shares of Indian textile companies tumbled on Friday after the US administration under President Donald Trump announced tariff cuts for rival suppliers, improving their competitiveness in the American market.<\/p>\n

Stocks such as Kitex, Pearl Global, KPR Mill and Welspun Living fell up to 7% as investors reacted to the latest tariff shift. Shares of Gokaldas Exports slipped 3.1% to Rs 824.50, Pearl Global Industries fell 7.2% to Rs 1,380.05, Arvind Ltd declined 1.8% to Rs 310.40, and Welspun Living dropped 1.9% to Rs 123.80. KPR Mill was down 4.3% at Rs 1,092.<\/p>\n

The selloff followed the US decision to reduce import duties on Bangladeshi goods to 20% from 35%, a move that significantly boosts Bangladesh\u2019s competitiveness in the American ready-made garments (RMG) market, where it is already a major player.<\/p>\n

In a parallel development, Pakistan secured a new trade agreement with the US, which lowered tariffs on its goods to 19% from 29%. Trump said the two countries also plan to cooperate on oil exploration projects, despite Pakistan\u2019s previous unsuccessful attempts to tap its reserves.<\/p>\n

The updated US tariff schedule revealed lower import duties on over 50 countries, including Bangladesh (20%), Pakistan (19%), Vietnam (20%) and several ASEAN nations such as Malaysia, Indonesia and the Philippines (19%). In contrast, India continues to face a 25% tariff.<\/p>\n

This differential treatment has raised concerns among Indian exporters, particularly in labour-intensive sectors like textiles and high-value electronics, which risk losing price competitiveness in the US \u2014 India\u2019s largest export destination.<\/p>\n

Analysts warn that unless India negotiates more favourable trade terms, its exporters could struggle to defend their market share against lower-tariff nations.<\/p>\n
