In a strategic move to bolster its domestic aluminium industry, the Indian government is contemplating a surge in anti-dumping duties on aluminium foil imported from Thailand. This decision could significantly impact the market dynamics, benefiting prominent players like Hindalco Industries Limited. Let's delve deeper into how this development may shape the landscape of the aluminium sector in India.

The news of a potential anti-dumping duty hike sparked optimism among investors, as Hindalco's stock surged by 2.50 per cent in morning trades on the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE). With a focus on protecting domestic manufacturers, such measures could propel Hindalco's growth trajectory.

DGTR, or the Directorate General of Trade Remedies, has launched a mid-term review, assessing the application of six companies, including Hindalco. This proactive approach demonstrates the government's commitment to safeguarding the interests of indigenous aluminium producers.
