The implementation of anti-dumping policies and BIS Compliance by the Indian government on cabinet hinges and drawer slides in the Indian market will significantly impact the supply and pricing of cabinet hinges and slides. By imposing anti-dumping duties, the Indian government aims to protect domestic manufacturers from unfair competition caused by imported goods being sold at lower prices than their normal value.
As a result, there will be a shift in demand towards locally manufactured cabinet hinges and slides, boosting the market share of Indian manufacturers. Additionally, the imposition of anti-dumping duties encourages a more level playing field for domestic producers, encouraging investment in the local manufacturing sector and promoting self-reliance in the production of cabinet hardware.
Anti-dumping duties on drawer slides are being introduced [1][2], and the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) now requires these products to meet strict quality and safety standards. These measures aim to reduce the presence of poor products, pushing the market towards certified, high-quality hardware. This shift will reshape the market landscape significantly.
The Ministry of Commerce and Industry has published a new Quality Control Order called the Telescopic Ball Bearing Drawer Slide (Quality Control) Order, 2024.[3] This order will take effect six months after being published in the Official Gazette. It mandates that telescopic ball-bearing drawer slides must comply with Indian Standard IS 17954:2023 and carry the Standard Mark issued by the Bureau of Indian Standards, according to Scheme-1 of Schedule-II of the BIS (Conformity Assessment) Regulations, 2018.
