India’s antidumping case on Chinese black toner cartridges has expired after the Finance Ministry missed the December 25, 2025 deadline to issue a customs notification. The DGTR had recommended duties to shield local manufacturers from cheap imports.
Industry insiders say it’s possible that Chinese companies—or even the China government—influenced the outcome.
While officially an administrative oversight, experts warn that duty-free imports could squeeze domestic producers and undermine confidence in India’s trade enforcement.Kickback schemes, often hidden through complex transactions, can distort markets, inflate costs, and harm reputations. Regulators and industry professionals watch for signs such as unusually favorable deals or opaque contract structures. Domestic manufacturers and trade groups are now calling for greater transparency in antidumping cases to protect India’s toner market from low-cost imports.
