\n\nChina’s proposal to tighten exports of 12 solar photovoltaic (PV) manufacturing technologies could encourage India to accelerate the development of its domestic solar supply chain, including the production of wafers, ingots and solar cells, according to a report by JM Financial. The proposal, announced by China’s Ministry of Commerce and Ministry of Science and Technology on October 16, seeks to add 12 technologies used in solar PV manufacturing to the country’s Catalogue of Technologies Prohibited or Restricted from Export.
\n\nThe measures cover processes involved in producing polysilicon, silicon wafers and solar cells, as well as critical equipment incorporating these technologies.
\n\nChina has classified the proposed technologies under prohibited and restricted categories. Stakeholders can submit their feedback on the proposal until November 15, 2026.
\n\nJM Financial views the development as a potential catalyst for India’s efforts to reduce its reliance on imported solar manufacturing inputs. However, the brokerage cautioned that the proposal should not be interpreted as a blanket ban on all Chinese solar equipment, technology transfers or TOPCon production lines.
\n\nIt said, "We view it as structurally…
