Autlan stock faces 40.25% duty review as Mexico keeps levy
Published on 11/09/2026 at 03:57 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael Müller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWSWhat the duty review means
- Mexico is examining whether the trade measure on Indian ferrosilicomangan should continue after its scheduled expiry.
- Autlan requested the review, while steelmakers and other interested parties can submit evidence to the ministry.
- The company operates across manganese minerals, ferroalloys, energy, precious metals and electrolytic manganese dioxide.
Mexico opened an expiry review on October 8, 2026, covering the anti-dumping measure on ferrosilicomanganese from India. The 40.25 percent duty remains in force while the Ministry of Economy examines whether dumping would continue or return if the measure ended, according to HS Code Match News.
Autlan requested the review
Compañía Minera Autlán submitted its request on September 9, 2026, before the previous measure was due to expire. The review covers ferrosilicomanganese originating in India regardless of the shipping country. The ministry set the review period from July 1, 2025, through June 30, 2026, with a wider analysis period running from July 1, 2021, through June 30, 2026.
The measure applies to the alloy used mainly by steel producers to remove oxygen and sulphur from molten steel. Interested importers, exporters, producers and other parties have 28 working days from the publication of the resolution to present arguments and evidence.
Regulation remains the key catalyst
The review keeps the import charge in place rather than allowing it to lapse during the ministry's assessment. For Autlan, the process affects the competitive framework for manganese ferroalloys in Mexico, although the eventual impact will depend on the ministry's final decision and market conditions.
MarketWatch describes Autlan as a Mexico-based producer and seller of manganese minerals and ferroalloys, with additional activities in manganese derivatives, energy, precious metals and electrolytic manganese dioxide. It lists Industrias CH and Grupo Simec as competitors; both are substantially larger diversified Mexican metals groups, leaving Autlan more focused on manganese and related products.
Autlan's operating profile
Autlan explores, produces and sells manganese minerals and ferroalloys in Mexico and internationally. Its product range includes ferromanganese, silicomanganese, manganese derivatives and electrolytic manganese dioxide, while its other activities include energy generation and precious-metals production. The company is headquartered in San Pedro Garza Garcia, Mexico. In comparison, Industrias CH and Grupo Simec have broader steel and metals operations, whereas Autlan occupies a more specialized manganese and ferroalloy niche.
