# India walks tightrope as anti-dumping rejections hit China most 2026-08-08T23:41:50+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet The Hindu reports that India's anti-dumping duty rejections have risen sharply since 2020, with cases involving Chinese goods making up 72% of all rejections between 2000 and 2025. The government has been balancing strategic objectives with attracting investment from both China and the US. This has led to gradual relaxations in FDI policies and a shift in imports from China, from finished goods to intermediate products like electronic components, which now account for nearly 13% of imports. The Finance Ministry rejected 50-62% of anti-dumping recommendations from 2020 to 2023, though the rate fell to 6% in 2024-25 before rising again. The Swadeshi Jagaran Manch has criticised the trend, calling the rejections 'unfortunate'. ## Coverage - thehindu.com Tags: anti-dumping, China, FDI, India, RSS, trade Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/india-walks-tightrope-as-anti-dumping-rejections-hit-china-most/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
