Introduction

India has also launched an anti-dumping enquiry into the importation of Ethambutol Hydrochloride tuberculosis drug into the country against Chinese and Thai imports. The reason behind this regulatory step is the protection of local pharmaceutical manufacturers against the unfairly priced imports, and the provision of the stable supply of this vital medication.

India is also in the process of making major changes in its automotive regulatory system by drafting the introduction of the third round of its Corporate Average Fuel Efficiency (CAFE) standards. These norms are one of the pillars of the national plan to make the transport industry more sustainable and efficient.
