The Ministry of Finance (MoF) on June 02, 2026, issued a notification regarding the extension of the countervailing duty on solar glass imports from Malaysia for Five Years.
The following has been stated:-
•The Central Government has continued the countervailing duty (CVD) on imports of Textured Toughened (Tempered) Coated and Uncoated Solar Glass originating in or exported from Malaysia, following the DGTR's finding that removal of the duty could lead to continued subsidization and injury to the domestic industry.
•The duty ranges from 9.71% to 10.14% of the CIF value, depending on the producer/exporter.
•The measure applies to specified solar glass products used in photovoltaic applications and replaces the earlier 2021 notification.
•The duty will remain in force for five years from the date of publication of the notification, unless revoked or amended earlier.
The detailed notification is given in the document below.
