<h1>India Removes Export Duty on Low-Grade Iron Ore and Specific Steel Products; Adjusts Import Duties on Key Raw Materials.</h1> The Central Government has removed the export duty on iron ores lumps and fines below 58% Fe content, iron ore pellets, and specific steel products, including pig iron, effective November 19, 2022. Import duty concessions on Anthracite/PCI coal, coking coal, coke, semi-coke, and ferro-nickel have also been withdrawn. Exports of iron ore lumps and fines with 58% Fe will now attract a 30% export duty, while exports of iron ore pellets and specified steel products will have no export duty. Import duties on Anthracite/PCI coking coal and ferronickel are set at 2.5%, and coke and semi-coke at 5%. These changes aim to support the domestic steel industry and enhance exports.
