India Probes Anti-Dumping of Glass Fibre Imports From China, Thailand, Bahrain

India has launched an anti-dumping investigation into glass fibre imports from China, Thailand, and Bahrain. The probe, initiated after a domestic complaint, aims to protect local industries from cheap imports. The Directorate General of Trade Remedies (DGTR) is leading the investigation, with potential anti-dumping duties to follow.

India has embarked on an anti-dumping probe targeting glass fibre imports from China, Thailand, and Bahrain.

This action follows a complaint from Owens-Corning (India), which alleged that these imports are harming the domestic industry. The Directorate General of Trade Remedies (DGTR) has initiated the investigation, citing prima facie evidence of dumping.

If the DGTR's findings confirm material injury to local producers, anti-dumping duties could be imposed to level the playing field, subject to approval by the finance ministry. Such measures are part of India's broader strategy to ensure fair trade practices and protect domestic industry under the WTO framework.
