Hi Kanav,
Thanks for keeping a track of this and sharing the same. As US isn’t a major producer itself and they import quartz from few countries like Turkey, China, Korea, India etc. If they impose duty on too many Countries then the product should only become more expensive for them. I doubt they can really create capacity very quickly. Here is a summary of the key countries exporting to US:
So I was thinking that as Turkey & China are the biggest supplier, as long as duty is being applied on them too and the duty being applied on India is lesser than that being applied on these two Countries, shouldn’t this trade be ok? (especially given that a very high rate was applied on China). And one will come to know about this rate down few months only…correct? Also, as per international trade laws, how is the rate of duty determined (is it limited to the export incentives being received by the exporting company)
