The centre on Thursday imposed a definitive anti-dumping duty of $2.05 per square metre on luxury vinyl tiles imports from China and $1.44 per square metre on imports from Taiwan based on the recommendations of the Commerce Ministry.

The anti-dumping duty would be valid for five years, said a notification by the Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs(CBIC).

The anti-dumping duty will be on “Vinyl Tiles other than in roll or sheet form” having minimum tile thickness of 2.5 mm and a maximum tile thickness of 8 mm.

In the commercial parlance it will include luxury vinyl tiles, luxury vinyl flooring, stone plastic composite, SPC, PVC flooring tiles, PVC tiles, rigid vinyl tiles or rigid vinyl flooring, the CBIC Notification said.

The petition seeking an anti-dumping probe on vinyl tiles imports was filed by Welspun Flooring Ltd, Welspun Global Brands Ltd, Welspun India Ltd.

In January this year, the Directorate General of Trade Remedies (DGTR) has recommended the duty on imports of ‘Vinyl Tiles other than in roll or sheet form’ from these countries after concluding in its probe that the product has been exported at dumped prices into India, which impacted the domestic industry.
