Summary
- The Central Government has announced the continuation of anti-dumping duty on Phthalic Anhydride imports from China and Korea for five more years, as per Notification No. 20/2026-Customs (ADD) dated August 5, 2026.
- This decision follows a sunset review by the Designated Authority, which found that dumping had persisted and discontinuation could harm the domestic industry.
- The duty rates are set at USD 40.08 per MT for China and USD 140.17 per MT for Korea, effective immediately upon publication in the Official Gazette.
- This move aims to protect local manufacturers from unfair competition and will remain in effect unless revoked or amended earlier.
