Antidumping probe will hurt GCC chemical imports to India, GPCA warns

摘要

Imports of ethylene glycol (EG) into India from the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region may be severely hurt as a result of an ongoing antidumping investigation targeting imports from Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Oman, United Arab Emirates (UAE), and Singapore, according to the Gulf Petrochemicals and Chemicals Association (GPCA; Dubai). GPCA says that inconsistent investigative practices by Indian authorities on antidumping regulations raise serious concerns under World Trade Organization rules and threaten to severely hurt GCC economies, jeopardizing $543 million worth of monoethylene glycol (MEG) imports.
