Definitive Anti-dumping duty imposed on Resin and laminated fibre boards
IN the matter of resin or other organic substances bonded wood or ligneous fibre boards of thickness below 6mm, except insulation boards, laminated fibre boards and boards which are not bonded either by resin or other organic substances [Ch 44] originating in, or exported from, China PR, Indonesia, Malaysia and Sri Lanka and imported into India, the Central Government had imposed provisional anti-dumping duty, vide notification No. 43/2012-Cus(ADD), dated the 21st September, 2012. This notification was valid for a period of six months.
The Designated Authority vide its final findings No. 14/29/2010-DGAD, dated 10th May, 2013, had come to a conclusion that the domestic industry had suffered material injury due to the dumping of the subject goods by the subject countries and recommended imposition of definitive anti-dumping duty. The Central Government has, therefore, imposed definitive anti-dumping duty on all imports of the subject goods, originating in or exported from the subject countries.
This notification is valid for a period of 18 months.
By the way, the provisional anti-dumping duty notification which was valid only for six months found its way to the bin on March 20, 2013 and now we have a notification imposing definitive anti-dumping goods on the subject goods, originating in or exported from the subject countries.
What happens to the period from 21/03/2013 till 07/08/2013 is anyone's guess.
How can the authorities concerned be so callous or are the importers not bothered.
Notification No. , Dated:August, 08, 2013
