Anti Dumping Duty on Poly Vinyl Chloride Paste Resin
PROVISIONAL Anti Dumping Duty on Poly Vinyl Chloride Paste Resin originating in, or exported from, People's Republic of China, Japan, Republic of Korea, Malaysia, Russia, Taiwan and Thailand, was imposed by Notification No. 77/2010-Customs, dated 26th July 2010. This notification clearly stated that the “anti-dumping duty imposed under this notification shall be effective upto and inclusive of the 25th January 2011”.
And now the Government has imposed definitive anti dumping duty on these goods with effect from the date of imposition of provisional duty, that is, the 26th July 2010. When the Notification No. 77/2010 clearly stipulated that it would end on 25th January 2011, is it fair to now retrospectively impose the duty? And what would happen to the imports from 26th January to 25th July 2011, when there was not even a provisional anti dumping duty on these goods?
