"India has filed a dispute under the aegis of the WTO on the issue of imposing import duties by the U.S. on certain steel and aluminium products," the Indian news agency PTI quoted an Indian official as saying.
India has sought consultations with the United States under the WTO's dispute settlement mechanism, which is a step of dispute settlement process.
