Current Trend and Future Growth of Leather Sector in India
The leather industry in India produces approx. 1055 billion worth of leather in various forms. Out of this, 661 billion (62%) is consumed domestically and the remaining is exported (37%). This share of consumption and export is estimated to change and in 2020 India will account for 1.4 trillion (59.1%) worth of domestic consumption and earn 673 billion (40.9%) worth from exports.
Organized retail is expected to grow at a CAGR of 25% to reach USD 200 Billion by 2020.
Demand growth for leather goods is expected from footwear, bags, purses, furniture etc. all driven by the Indian consumption boom. Penetration of export markets is expected to rise in the wake of increased sourcing by global retail majors and luxury brands. Key segments for human resource development in the industry include finished leather, leather footwear and leather goods.
India is the second largest producer of leather garments, next to China. India produces diverse types of leather garments i.e. jackets, long coats, waistcoats/shirts, pant/shorts, etc. and goods and accessories made in India are trunks, suit-cases, handbags, wallets, purses, leather belts, gloves, saddler and harness goods, etc. Leather garments manufacturing capacity is estimated to be 16 million pieces per annum and leather goods production capacity of approx. 63 million pieces annually.
The sector currently employs over 3.09 million employees and is slated to employ more than 6.8 million employees by 2022.

The leather goods and garments segment currently employs 0.31 million people and is expected to employ 0.64 million people by 2020. This will result in an incremental growth of around 0.33 million jobs. All these factors will result in more job opportunities for candidates applying in this sector across India.
