Shares of Waaree Energies and Premier Energies climbed on Tuesday after the US finalised anti-dumping duties on solar cells and panels from four South Asian countries: Cambodia, Malaysia, Thailand, and Vietnam.

The decision comes after the US-based solar manufacturers had accused these countries of flooding the market with cheap solar equipment and had sought an investigation, citing 'unfair practices'.

Products from Cambodia will face up to a 3,521% tariff as the nation did not participate in the probe, the Commerce Department told news agency Bloomberg.

Companies in Vietnam and Thailand will face tariffs up to 395.9% and 375.2%, respectively. The duties for Malaysia were set at 34.4%.

According to a Bloomberg report, the US imported solar equipment worth $12.9 billion from the four South Asian countries last year, representing 77% of total module imports.
