Centre likely to put all tyre imports in restricted category April 01, 2020 at 12:30PM

The government is considering a proposal to put all tyre imports in the ‘restricted’ category, from the present ‘free’ category. A March 17 communication by the DGFT, said that union commerce ministry has initiated inputs from various industry associations and stake holders to ensure tyre imports move to the restricted category. Tyre companies have been lobbying for restrictions on imports to control influx of Chinese imports particularly in the after market.
