The Ministry of Finance of India has announced the imposition of provisional anti-dumping duty on imports of all kinds of plastic processing or injection moulding machines, also known as injection presses, with clamping force between 40 tonnes and 1,000 tonnes (inclusive) originating in or exported from the Mainland of China.

In the preliminary findings, the Directorate General of Anti-Dumping & Allied Duties of India provisionally concluded that the subject goods had been exported to India from the Mainland of China below their normal values; the domestic industry had suffered material injury and the injury had been caused by the dumped imports. Anti-dumping duty was thus recommended. The preliminary findings dated 10 February 2009 is available at
