Anti-dumping laws prevent unfair trade practices by counteracting the sale of products at unfairly low prices. Governed by the WTO's Anti-Dumping Agreement, these laws ensure fair competition by imposing duties on dumped imports that harm domestic industries.

The Director General under the Competition Act, 2002, investigates anti-competitive practices through powers like summoning individuals, accessing records, and conducting search and seizure. Landmark cases highlight the DG's pivotal role in safeguarding fair competition and consumer welfare.
