Silk export to India has been restricted by imposing anti-dumping duties as the quality and price of Chinese silk have given the Mainland manufacturers an upper edge compared to Indian counterparts.
Chinese silk has an advantage in Indian markets and it poses a big challenge for local silk producers.
From the last year, Indian government has launched investigation against 102 Chinese silk enterprises in question.
This is the biggest anti-damping case so far against Chinese silk export.
The decision will affect silkworm farmers of Jiangsu province as they export silk worth US $20 million each year to India.
