DGTR Grants Extension on Anti-Dumping Duty for EVA Backsheets

The Directorate General of Trade Remedies (DGTR) has recently prolonged the anti-dumping duty on Ethylene Vinyl Acetate (EVA) backsheets, significantly impacting the solar sector.

This pivotal decision aims to safeguard domestic manufacturers from unfair trade practices, fostering a more competitive and sustainable solar market.

EVA backsheets, crucial components in solar modules, have been a focal point in international trade disputes due to alleged market distortions.

This extension underscores the government's commitment to nurturing indigenous solar manufacturing capabilities, ensuring a level playing field for local players.

The move is poised to influence investment decisions, technology adoption, and market dynamics within the solar industry. Stakeholders, ranging from solar developers to manufacturers, must closely monitor the implications of this decision on project costs and supply chain dynamics.

In a market where renewable energy plays a pivotal role, understanding the regulatory landscape is paramount.

DGTR's move not only addresses immediate concerns but also sets a precedent for fair trade practices, aligning with the global push towards sustainable energy solutions
