FIEO warns of dumping in India due to US-China trade war

China has overcapacity in many sectors such as electric vehicles and hence threat of dumping of goods cannot be ruled out in the domestic market due to the escalating trade war between Beijing and Washington, exporters’ body FIEO said on Thursday 16 May.

The US on Tuesday announced plans to slap new tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles, advanced batteries, solar cells, steel, aluminum and medical equipment. According to a report by think tank GTRI, the escalation of the trade war between the US and China may push Beijing to dump goods in the Indian markets… Of the products affected by additional duties on China, India has opportunities in facemasks, PPE, syringes, needles, medical gloves, aluminium and iron and steel. “Opportunity may come in China also with retaliation on US exports, provided we have market access in products targeted by China,” he said.

The DGTR (Directorate General of Trade Remedies) is an investigation arm of the commerce ministry that deals with anti-dumping duty, safeguard duty, and countervailing duty. These duties are trade remedy measures, provided under an agreement of the World Trade Organisation (WTO) to its member countries.
