China will levy anti-dumping duties on imports of cypermethrin originating in India for a period of five years from Wednesday, China's Ministry of Commerce (MOC) said on Tuesday.
An investigation has shown that imports of cypermethrin from India have involved dumping, causing substantial damage to China's domestic cypermethrin industry, and determined a causal link between these dumping practices and material injury.

Anti-dumping duty rates will range from 48.4 percent to 166.2 percent.
Cypermethrin is used primarily in the agriculture sector to produce insecticides for pest control in the cultivation of cotton, fruit trees, vegetables, tobacco, corn and flowers.
On May 7, 2024, at the request of domestic industry, the MOC officially launched an anti-dumping investigation into cypermethrin imports originating from India, said an MOC spokesperson when answering a question from a reporter regarding the implementation of the anti-dumping measures on Wednesday.
The spokesperson stressed that the investigation was conducted in strict accordance with Chinese laws and regulations, and World Trade Organization (WTO) rules.
Throughout the process, the ministry gathered extensive input from all stakeholders, ensuring their rights were upheld and the findings were reached in an objective, fair, and impartial manner, said the spokesperson.
