Sources from the Ministry of Commerce confirmed that keeping the current situation in mind, India is tightening the checks and balances to safeguard several sectors from dumping from China. Federation of Indian Export Organisations (FIEO) cautioned that sectors like electronics and consumer durables, textiles and apparel, toys and plastic goods, solar equipment and components are more vulnerable to any surge in supply of cheaper goods from China.
