The domestic producers have requested for imposition of safeguard duty on imports of Dimethoate Technical for a period of three years. According to the Indian authority, Dimethoate Technical is imported into India primarily from the Mainland of China and Hong Kong. The Indian authority also found that prima facie increased imports of the subject product have caused and are threatening to cause serious injury to the domestic producers and accordingly it has decided to initiate an investigation.
