Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman told during the discussion in the Lok Sabha on the budget presented for the coming financial year that 2.5 crore umbrellas are imported from the same country every year. Pointing to China, he said that because of this, the 10 percent duty on the import of umbrellas was reduced to 20 percent in the budget. He said that domestic umbrella manufacturers MSME companies had complained that the import of umbrellas from China is increasing continuously in the country due to low duty. With the increase in import duty, domestic small entrepreneurs will get an opportunity to manufacture.
