The disclosure came in an exchange filing by India’s largest solar module manufacturer, which has been under scrutiny from US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) since September 2025. The CBP had initiated a formal investigation into Waaree and its US subsidiary, Waaree Solar Americas Inc., over suspected evasion of anti-dumping and countervailing duties on solar cells from China and other Southeast Asian nations.

The company said in its filing that the US investigation was “limited to a narrow subset of certain historical import entries” and that its US business “operates normally” with “no impact on ongoing manufacturing deliveries.”
The clarification follows a final determination by the CBP issued on June 23, 2026. The agency found that Waaree had evaded tariffs placed on solar cells from Vietnam and Malaysia between 2021 and June 23, 2026, and moved to assess anti-dumping tariffs of up to 271.28% on Waaree’s imported solar modules determined to be subject to the duties.
