The commerce ministry has terminated an anti-dumping investigation against mono ethylene glycol — a fibre intermediate — imported from Saudi Arabia following a request from Reliance Industries.
In December last year, the Directorate-General of Trade Remedies (DGTR), which is the ministry’s investigation arm, had initiated the probe into an alleged dumping of ethylene glycol originating in or imported from Kuwait, Oman, Saudi Arabia, UAE and Singapore, following a complaint by RIL.
“In view of the request made by the domestic industry (RIL) … the designated authority hereby terminates the investigation initiated on December 9, 2019 against the imports of MEG (or ethylene glycol) originating in or exported from Saudi Arabia,” the DGTR has said in a notification.
