Borosil Renewables has informed that the Ministry of Commerce and Industry (‘Commerce Ministry’) had recommended imposition of provisional anti-dumping duty, pending completion of final investigation of the alleged dumping of the Textured toughened (tempered) coated and uncoated glass (‘Solar Glass’) from China and Vietnam into India. The Ministry of Finance had subsequently notified this imposition vide its Customs Notice of December 04, 2024. The Company is pleased to announce that the Commerce Ministry has now concluded its investigation and has published its final recommendations in respect of dumped imports from China and Vietnam which have caused material injury to the domestic industry. The Commerce Ministry has recommended the imposition of a definitive antidumping duty on all the imports of solar glass originating in or exported from China and Vietnam, for a period of five years from the date of issue of the preliminary duty notification issued by the Central Government vide Notification No. 26/2024-Customs (ADD) dated December 04, 2024. Additionally, the Commerce Ministry has also completed its anti-subsidy investigation on solar glass imports from Vietnam and has recommended the imposition of definitive countervailing duty (‘CVD’) on the imports of solar glass from Vietnam, for a period of five years from the date of notification to be issued in this regard by the Central Government. The Company welcomes this decision of the imposition of final anti-dumping and countervailing duties, which recognizes the adverse impact of dumped and subsidized imports on the domestic solar glass industry. We firmly believe that while restoring fair competition and creating a level playing field for domestic manufacturers, this will encourage rapid and significant growth in Domestic manufacturing of solar glass, leading to exponential growth in India’s solar glass industry. The notifications issued by the Commerce Ministry are attached.
