Shares of HFCL Ltd. jumped over 9% on Tuesday to the highest in over 22 years after the European Commission determined that it was the only Indian company not engaged in dumping of optical fibre cables.
Anti-dumping duties would not apply to the Indian exporting product of the HFCL Group, which includes HFCL Limited and HTL Limited, as no evidence of dumping was found in the European markets. All other Indian optical fibre cable manufacturers are subject to provisional anti-dumping duties.
HFCL has operated in Europe for over a decade, maintaining long-term relationships with leading telcos and internet service providers in many European countries.
