U.S. Slaps Duties on India's 'Dumped' Glycine Imports
Published Date: 11/18/2025
Notice
Summary
The U.S. Department of Commerce found that some Indian glycine producers sold their product in the U.S. for less than fair value between June 2023 and May 2024. This means certain companies might face extra duties, while others are partly off the hook. Businesses involved should watch for final decisions and possible money impacts soon!
Analyzed Economic Effects
5 provisions identified: 2 benefits, 3 costs, 0 mixed.
Kumar Industries: 39.12% Dumping Margin
Commerce preliminarily found Kumar Industries had a 39.12 percent weighted‑average dumping margin for sales to the U.S. during the period June 1, 2023 through May 31, 2024. If this margin is affirmed in the final results, importers of Kumar’s glycine could face antidumping assessments and higher cash deposit requirements tied to that margin.
Final Cash Deposit Rule and All‑Others Rate
When the final results are published, company-specific cash deposit rates will equal the company-specific weighted‑average dumping margins established in the final results; the 'all‑others' cash deposit rate will remain 13.61 percent. These cash deposit requirements apply to shipments entered or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption on or after the date of publication of the final results.
Partial Rescission for 22 Exporters
Commerce is rescinding the administrative review for 22 exporters listed in Appendix II (names in the notice). For those rescinded companies, antidumping duties will be assessed at rates equal to the cash deposit of estimated antidumping duties required at the time of entry during the period June 1, 2023 through May 31, 2024, and Commerce intends to issue assessment instructions relating to these rescinded companies no earlier than 35 days after publication.
Importer Reimbursement Certification Risk
Importers must file a certificate about reimbursement of antidumping and/or countervailing duties prior to liquidation of relevant entries as required by 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2). Failure to file may lead Commerce to presume reimbursement occurred and could result in assessment of double antidumping duties and/or an increase in duties by the amount of countervailing duties.
Paras Intermediates: 0.00% Margin
Commerce preliminarily determined Paras Intermediates Private Limited has a 0.00 percent weighted‑average dumping margin for the period June 1, 2023 through May 31, 2024. If this result is final, importers of Paras-produced glycine would not be subject to antidumping assessments for that period.

They found that Haur Tyi Paper Bag Co. didn’t sell these bags at unfairly low prices, and they stopped reviewing five other companies because no one asked for it. This means no extra duties for Haur Tyi right now, and the review process is moving forward with some deadlines adjusted due to a government shutdown.
