Govt Imposes Anti-Dumping Duties On Vitamin A, Rubber Chemical Imports From China, Japan, EU
New Delhi: The Union government has imposed anti-dumping duties on imports of Vitamin-A Palmitate and insoluble sulphur -- a crucial rubber additive -- on China, Japan, Switzerland, and the European Union (EU). The Ministry of Finance, in a notification on June 6, issued the anti-dumping duties for a period of five years unless it is cancelled or revised. It aims to protect domestic manufacturers from low-priced imports that affect the local industry. The move follows an investigation by the Directorate General of Trade Remedies (DGTR) which revealed that the price of Vitamin-A Palmitate imported by these countries was lower than the normal value. The DGTR also noted 'material injury' to domestic producers of Vitamin-A Palmitate due to large-scale dumping from China, the EU, and Switzerland. The compound, commonly used in small quantities, remains heavily import-dependent in India. While Vitamin-A Palmitate is used in pharmaceuticals, food, and cosmetics, insoluble sulphur plays a key role in the rubber industry, majorly in tyre manufacturing. The anti-dumping duties, effective immediately must be paid in Indian rupees based on the exchange rate. It is expected to prevent unfair trade practices and protect local industries. According to the notification, the duties for Vitamin-A Palmitate, range from $0.87 to $20.87 per kg; The highest duty has been imposed on Chinese exporters other than Shangyu NHU BioChem, which will face a lower rate of $14.95/kg. Swiss producer DSM Nutritional Products will attract a duty of $0.87/kg, while other Swiss exporters will face $8.2/kg. A flat rate of $11.09/kg will apply to imports from the EU, the notification stated. Further, depending on the exporter, the duties on insoluble sulphur will range from $259 to $358 per metric tonne. Chinese imports will face a flat duty of $307/MT. Among Japanese companies, Shikoku Chemicals will be charged $259/MT, while all other Japanese exporters will face the maximum rate of $358/MT, the notification said.

Beijing proposes easing export of rare earths to European Union
BEIJING: China has proposed establishing a "green channel" to ease the export of rare earths to the European Union, the commerce ministry said Saturday, after Beijing restricted their sale abroad. Beijing has since April required licences to export these strategic materials from China, which accounts for more than 60 percent of rare earth mining production and 92 percent of global refined output, according to the International Energy Agency. The metals are used in a wide variety of products, including electric car batteries, and there has been criticism from industries about the way China's licences have been issued. "Export control on rare earths and other items is an international practice," the commerce ministry said in a statement. "China attaches great importance to Europe's concerns and is willing to establish a green channel for eligible applications, fast track the examination and approval, and instruct the working level to maintain timely communication on this," a ministry statement said. The comments were attributed to China's Commerce Minister Wang Wentao, who met Tuesday with EU trade commissioner Maros Sefcovic. During the bilateral talks, Wang said he hoped the bloc would in turn "take reciprocal action, adopt effective measures to facilitate, safeguard, and promote compliant trade of high-tech products with China," according to the commerce ministry. The two officials also discussed imports by European countries of Chinese electric vehicles, which the EU has hit with levies over allegedly unfair subsidies from Beijing. "The negotiation on the price commitment of electric vehicles between China and Europe has entered the final stage, but both sides still need to make efforts," the commerce ministry said. The discussions will be followed by China hosting a summit with the EU next month, 50 years since Beijing and Brussels established diplomatic ties.

X plays up blue checkmark disclaimer to stave off possible EU fine
HighlightsElon Musk's social media company X has introduced a disclaimer for its blue checkmark to address concerns from European Union antitrust regulators regarding user deception. The European Commission charged X with misleading users about the blue checkmark, which now signifies a paid subscription rather than verified identity as it previously did. The European Union investigation into X's blue checkmark practices is ongoing under the Digital Services Act, which could result in fines up to 6% of the company's global annual revenue. Elon Musk 's social media company X has highlighted a disclaimer to its blue checkmark in an attempt to head off a possible hefty fine from EU antitrust regulators , a person familiar with the matter said. The European Commission in July last year charged X with deceiving users, saying that the blue checkmark does not correspond to industry practices and that anyone can pay to get a "verified" status. The blue checkmark had previously indicated that an account belonged to a public figure whose identity was verified but Musk changed it to indicate it belonged to a paid subscriber after acquiring X in 2022. X has not admitted wrongdoing and the prominent display of the blue checkmark disclaimer is not part of any settlement proposal with the EU tech enforcer, the person said. The prominent display started a week ago. The Commission said it took note of X's announcement. "Our investigation related to the blue checkmark is ongoing," a spokesperson said. X did not immediately respond to an emailed request for comment. The EU probe is under the Digital Services Act which requires large online platforms to do more to tackle illegal and harmful content or risk fines as much as 6% of their global annual revenue. Bloomberg was the first to report on the blue checkmark disclaimer.
