India Probes Nylon-6 Chip Imports from China, Russia

India has started an investigation into nylon-6 chips and granules imported from China and Russia.

These are raw materials used in making textiles and other products.

A company called Gujarat Polyfilms said that these cheap imports are hurting local businesses.

The government is looking into this to see if the imports are being sold at unfairly low prices, which could harm Indian companies.

If they find that to be true, they might add extra taxes on these imports to make things fair.

Some people think this is a good idea to protect local businesses, while others worry it might make exports more expensive.
