As per an article in DNA, the government has initiated a probe into dumping of certain radial tyres from China that are used in buses, lorries, and trucks and may impose duty on them to protect the domestic tyre industry.

It was noted that the Directorate General of Anti-Dumping and Allied Duties (DGAD) has found sufficient prima facie evidence of dumping of these tyres from China. Further, Automotive Tyre Manufacturers' Association has filed application on behalf of domestic players such as JK Tyre Industries, Ceat, and Apollo Tyres for initiation of an anti-dumping investigation and imposition of the duty on imports.

The performance of major tyre companies for the quarter ended March 2016 was below expectations. This was seen on the back of rising commodity prices, rising imports, and yuan's devaluation. Our recent premium edition of The 5 Minute WrapUp offers some investment insights on the Indian tyre industry (subscription required).

One shall note that India has already imposed anti-dumping duty on several products in order to tackle cheap imports.
