Commerce Adjusts Duties on Indian Glycine Imports
Published Date: 6/16/2026
Notice
Summary
The U.S. Department of Commerce found that some Indian glycine producers got unfair government help during 2023, so they’re adjusting duties (extra taxes) on those imports. This affects companies importing glycine from India and means changes in costs starting June 16, 2026. Deadlines were pushed back due to government shutdowns, but now the final results are set and ready to roll!
Analyzed Economic Effects
3 provisions identified: 0 benefits, 3 costs, 0 mixed.
45.33% Duty on Two Indian Glycine Firms
The Department of Commerce found countervailable subsidies for glycine from India for the period January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2023 and set company-specific countervailable subsidy rates of 45.33 percent ad valorem for Kumar Industries, India and for Bajaj Healthcare Limited. These final rates are effective as of the publication of this notice (June 16, 2026).
Cash Deposit Rules for New Glycine Shipments
For shipments of subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after publication of the final results (June 16, 2026), U.S. Customs and Border Protection will collect cash deposits of estimated countervailing duties. Company-specific cash deposit rates will equal the final company rates (45.33% for Kumar and Bajaj); the cash deposit rate for other producers and exporters will continue to be 5.01 percent (the all-others rate).
Timing of Duty Assessment and Liquidation Holds
Commerce will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection to assess countervailing duties in accordance with these final results and intends to issue assessment instructions no earlier than 35 days after publication (i.e., no earlier than 35 days after June 16, 2026). If a timely summons is filed at the U.S. Court of International Trade, CBP will be directed not to liquidate relevant entries until the time for filing a request for a statutory injunction has expired (within 90 days of publication).
