Anti Dumping Duty on POY - Resurrection but no Retrospective Duty
PROVISIONAL Anti Dumping Duty on ‘Partially Oriented Yarn (POY)' originating in, or exported from, the China PR was imposed by Notification No. 77/2006-Cus., dated 2-08-2006. This Notification was effective only till 01.02.2007. But by Notification No. 92/2007-Customs dated the 3rd August 2007, they imposed definitive anti dumping duty on this product with effect from the date of provisional anti dumping duty i.e 02.08.2006.
But was there no dumping and injury to domestic industry during the period 02.02.2007 to 02.08.2007?
Even this Notification No. 92/2007-Customs dated the 3rd August 2007 expired on 1 st August 2011. Then the Government by Notification No. 71/2011 dated 09.08.2011 extended it till 10th February 2012, eight days after its death.
On 10th February, they forgot to extend it, which they have done now.
Fortunately, they have not given retrospective effect to it.
But was there no dumping between 11th February and 1st May 2012?
