DGTR Imposes Anti-Dumping Duty On Some Chinese Glassware For Borosil

CW Bureau ·

Borosil Ltd has received the final findings of the Directorate General of Trade Remedies (DGTR) recommending the imposition of anti-dumping duty on imports of borosilicate table and kitchen glassware originating in or exported from China PR.

The final findings, dated September 24, 2026, were issued by the DGTR under the Department of Commerce, Ministry of Commerce & Industry. The investigation was initiated following an application filed by Borosil as the domestic industry.

DGTR finds dumping by Chinese imports

After examining the facts and submissions on record, the DGTR concluded that the subject goods from China PR had been exported to India at dumped prices.

It also found that the dumping margins were positive and significant. Borosil, being the sole producer of the like article in India, was recognised as the domestic industry in the investigation.

Imports found to retard domestic industry

The DGTR further concluded that dumped imports from China PR had materially retarded the establishment of the domestic industry.

It also determined that the imposition of anti-dumping duty would not be against the public interest, paving the way for its recommendation under the applicable trade-remedy framework.

Duty proposed for five years

Having regard to the lesser-duty rule, the DGTR has recommended imposition of anti-dumping duty on imports of the subject goods from China PR for five years.

The proposed duty will take effect from the date of notification to be issued by the Central Government. The final notification imposing the duty is yet to be issued.

Borosil expects competitive environment to improve

Borosil said the final findings are expected to support a more level competitive environment for its borosilicate table and kitchen glassware business in India.

The company will continue to monitor the matter and make further disclosures, as may be required under the applicable SEBI Listing Regulations.
