MUMBAI (ICIS)–India has decided not to impose anti-dumping duties (ADDs) on low density polyethylene (LDPE) imports from Saudi Arabia, Thailand, Singapore and the US.
“The central government, after considering the final findings of the designated authority, has decided not to accept the recommendations to impose anti-dumping duty on the import of LDPE,” the Department of Revenue under the Ministry of Finance stated on 6 June.
India was initially planning to impose ADDs ranging from $17.05/tonne to $216.76/tonne on LDPE imports from the four countries.
An investigation into LDPE dumping from the four countries and two others was started in October 2020 following a complaint from India’s Chemicals and Petrochemicals Manufacturers Association (CPMA).
In April 2022, a decision was made to terminate the probe on the UAE and Qatar.
Conglomerate Reliance Industries Ltd (RIL) is the sole producer of LDPE in India.
