Shares of Aarti Industries Ltd fell sharply for the second straight session, slipping 5.57% to ₹376.25 on Friday, April 4. The stock is reacting to fears surrounding U.S. President Donald Trump’s announcement of steep reciprocal tariffs that have rattled Indian exporters.

Aarti Industries, which operates in the specialty chemicals segment, has significant exposure to the U.S. market. According to market experts, nearly 25% of the company’s revenue comes from the United States, making it vulnerable to any tariff hikes or trade restrictions introduced by Washington.

Trump’s 26% reciprocal tariff move on India, part of a broader push to impose baseline duties on all trade partners, has sparked concern over supply chain disruptions and rising input costs. Specialty chemical firms that rely on U.S. exports are seen as particularly exposed.

The broader market sentiment for export-heavy Indian sectors continues to remain cautious, especially those with significant U.S.-centric businesses like chemicals, IT, and pharma.
