India has initiated an anti-dumping investigation into imports of a chemical product from China and Japan following concerns that lower-priced shipments may be affecting domestic producers.
The probe, launched by India’s trade authorities, will examine whether exporters from the two countries have been selling the chemical in the Indian market at unfairly low prices and whether such imports have caused injury to local manufacturers.
The investigation aims to assess import trends, pricing practices, and the impact on India’s chemical industry. If dumping is confirmed, authorities may consider imposing anti-dumping duties to protect domestic producers from unfair competition.
The move reflects India’s continued use of trade defence measures to safeguard local industries while ensuring fair competition in international markets.
