Textile stocks jumped sharply after India and the US announced a new trade agreement that cuts tariffs on Indian goods to 18% from 25%. The removal of additional duties has improved export prospects for the sector with immediate effect.

What The Trade Deal Means For Textiles

The US is India’s largest export market for textiles, accounting for nearly 28% of total shipments. Lower tariffs make Indian products more competitive compared to peers like Bangladesh, Vietnam, and Sri Lanka, which still face higher duties.

Textiles Stocks That Saw Sharp Gains

Shares of Kitex Garments and Indo Count Industries surged up to 20%. 

Other stocks such as Welspun Living, KPR Mill, Arvind, Trident, Bombay Dyeing, and Vardhaman Textiles gained as much as 18% during intraday trade.

Which Companies May Benefit Most

Companies with strong US exposure, efficient operations, and value-added products will gain the most. Export-focused apparel makers are expected to see faster order recovery as US buyers shift sourcing.

Top stocks to watch include Gokaldas Exports, Indo Count Industries, Welspun Living, Pearl Global Industries, and KPR Mill. Integrated players like KPR Mill may benefit from better cost control, though cotton prices remain a risk.

Conclusion

The India-US trade deal offers long-term relief to the textile sector after years of weak demand and margin pressure. While select export-driven stocks look attractive, investors should stay selective rather than chasing the entire sector.
