NEW DELHI (CNI)—The Indian government is considering levying provisional antidumping duty (ADD) on titanium dioxide imports from China.

 

In its preliminary findings dated 6 June, the antidumping authority (ADA) has recommended the imposition of provisional ADD at four different rates. The lowest rate of $303.70/tonne has been proposed on imports from Shaugan Chemical Plant Co. Ltd.

 

ADA has specified a levy of $313.01/tonne on imports from Guangxi Dahua Chemical Factory. Similarly, it has recommended provisional ADD of $ 342.34/tonne on supplies from Guang Xi Xing Mei Xiang Titanium Mfg Co Ltd. These three companies had responded to ADA’s questionnaire.

 

ADA has suggested levying a highest rate of $358.04/tonne on imports from any other Chinese companies.

 

The imposition of provisional ADD would benefit three producers of anatase grade titanium dioxide. These are Travancore Titanium Products Ltd, Kolmak Chemicals Ltd and Kilburn Chemicals Ltd.
