Waaree Energies Clarifies US Customs Findings Amid Ongoing Solar Module Trade Investigation
Waaree Energies clarified that the US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) investigation found no evidence of exporting solar modules made with Chinese-origin solar cells to the US, following an on-site verification. While CBP's determination relates to a limited subset of historical imports and is not final, the company faces ongoing scrutiny over alleged tariff evasion involving solar cells from Vietnam and Malaysia. Waaree's shares fell nearly 5% amid investor caution, though operations continue unaffected and legal options are being evaluated.
