NEW DELHI: India has initiated anti-dumping investigations into two Chinese imports: nylon filament yarn and the rubber chemical TDQ (trimethyl dihydroquinoline). The Directorate General of Trade Remedies (DGTR) is leading these probes following applications from domestic manufacturers.
Century Enka, Gujarat Polyfilms, and Oriilon India have jointly filed for the investigation into nylon filament yarn imports from China and Vietnam. Similarly, NOCIL Ltd has requested a probe into TDQ imports from China. These actions aim to protect domestic industries from unfair trade practices and ensure a level playing field.
Anti-dumping measures are trade remedies that countries employ to counteract imports sold below fair market value, which can harm local industries. The DGTR’s investigations will assess whether these imports are causing material injury to Indian manufacturers and may recommend duties to mitigate any adverse effects.
These investigations reflect India’s ongoing efforts to shield its industries from unfair competition and maintain fair trade practices in line with World Trade Organization guidelines.
