CBIC Levies $389/MT Anti-Dumping Duty on Sulphur Black Imports following Dumping Investigation

The CBIC has imposed a $389 per metric ton (MT) anti-dumping duty on Sulphur Black imports. After a detailed investigation, the duty was implemented to address the impact of dumped imports on local manufacturers. Sulphur Black, used primarily in textile dyeing, was being imported at reduced prices, hurting domestic producers. The investigation concluded that these imports were substantially undercutting local prices, prompting the imposition of the duty. This move is part of India's broader strategy to protect domestic industries from unfair pricing practices that distort the market.
