Interestingly, according to import rule (2012), importing leather made of cow is not unlawful in India. However, as per the rule, the companies have to mention that from which animal's leather its product is made of. Mumbai: In Mumbai, in Harley Davidson showroom, we found out that the company is selling belts, jackets made of cow leather. Kanpur & Agra In Kanpur which is well known for its leather market, we found out that shop owners are selling leather products but not made of cow or pig leather. Even factory owners where leather is being processed, also informed us that they have nothing to do with cow leather. In Agra, too shop owners denied keeping cow leather.
