NOCIL Shares Rise After Government Imposes Anti-Dumping Duties on Imports
NOCIL's share price surged 20% to Rs 190.82 after the Indian government imposed anti-dumping duties on Sulphenamides Accelerators imports from China, the US, and the EU for five years. The Directorate General of Trade Remedies found these imports were priced below domestic costs, harming local producers. The duties aim to protect domestic manufacturers like NOCIL, India's largest rubber chemicals producer, which supplies key inputs for the rubber and tyre industry. The levy varies by country and producer and will remain unless amended.
