Universal Cables shares fall over 3% after EU imposes 8.3% combined duty on fibre cable exports
By Aditya Bhagchandani Published on June 13, 2025, 09:39 IST Shares of Universal Cables Ltd slipped 3.25% to ₹618.70 on June 13 after the company disclosed that the European Commission has imposed a combined duty of 8.3% on its single-mode optical fibre cable exports to the European Union. The stock had closed at ₹639.50 in the previous session. In an official regulatory filing to the BSE and NSE, Universal Cables confirmed that the European Commission, through Implementing Regulation (EU) 2025/1135, has enforced a 5.4% countervailing duty (CVD) on exports of optical fibre cables from India, alongside a revised anti-dumping duty of 2.9%. Earlier, the anti-dumping duty was fixed at 6.9%, but it was reduced after submissions made by the company. The combined 8.3% levy is effective from 12th June 2025, impacting cables currently classified under CN code ex 8544 70 00 . Universal Cables noted that while the duties are now official, the financial impact remains unquantified as of now. The company affirmed that it received official communication from EU authorities on the evening of June 11, 2025. This development could weigh on the company's export profitability to the EU, which is a key destination for its optical fibre products. Investors will watch closely for updates on how the company plans to mitigate the duty impact.
