India launches anti-dumping probe into ethyl chloroformate imports from China
Mar 19, 2026
New Delhi: India on Tuesday opened an anti-dumping investigation into ethyl chloroformate imports from China after a domestic producer alleged the chemical used in pharmaceutical and agrochemical manufacturing was being sold at unfairly low prices.
The Directorate General of Trade Remedies (DGTR), under the federal trade ministry, said it initiated the probe following an application by Paushak that alleged that imports from China had caused "material injury" to domestic producers.
The Chinese embassy in New Delhi did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
In December, India imposed a three-year import tariff of 11% to 13% on some steel imports, in an effort to curb cheap Chinese products.
