DGTR Revises CVD Rates on Continuous Cast Copper Wire Rod Imports from Indonesia, Malaysia,...

The Directorate General of Trade Remedies (DGTR) has revised CVD (Countervailing Duty) rates on continuous cast copper wire rod imports from Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, and Vietnam. This revision indicates an ongoing assessment of subsidies provided by the exporting countries to their domestic industries. CVDs are imposed to offset such subsidies, ensuring fair competition for domestic manufacturers. The revision suggests either new findings regarding the extent of subsidization or adjustments based on market conditions. This measure aims to protect the Indian copper wire rod industry from unfair trade practices.
