The Government of India, through its Directorate General of Trade Remedies (DGTR) under the Ministry of Commerce, has launched an anti-subsidy investigation on aluminium wire products from Malaysia. The concern for a probe was raised by the leading Indian aluminium manufacturers, such as Vedanta Limited, Hindalco Industries Limited, and Bharat Aluminium Company Limited, urging for a review to finalise an extension to the duties for trade protections.
On Monday, the government announced that the probe has been made in light of the existing countervailing duties (CVDs) on Malaysia’s exports of “Aluminium Wire/Wire Rods above 7 mm diameter” (HSN code: 760511) that are scheduled to lapse in September. Under World Trade Organisation rules, countries can levy such duties to protect domestic industries from subsidised imports.
