The US, Brazil and Pakistan have initiated anti-dumping measures against India, which has been fighting its own battle against low-priced products flooding domestic markets.

Trade experts suggest some of these measures may be strategic, signaling a growing wave of trade defense actions against India and aimed at influencing New Delhi's trade negotiations with key partners.

Pakistan's anti-dumping charges against India are particularly baffling, as the two duelling neighbours have banned any trade between them.
