Anti Dumping Duty on Cable Ties - Extended after demise!
THE Anti Dumping Duty on Cable Ties falling under the sub-heading 3926 90, originating in, or exported from, the People's Republic of China and Taiwan was imposed by Notification No.44/2009-Cus dated 30.4.2009 with effect from 31.10.2008 and would have been in force till 30.10.2013.
The Designated Authority had recommended modification of the existing anti-dumping duty.
So, the Government had superseded Notification No. 44/2009 and had imposed fresh anti dumping duty on the product with effect from 14.12.2012 by Notification No. 56/2012-Customs (ADD); but this was to remain valid only till the validity of the original notification that is 30.10.2013.
The Designated Authority recently requested for extension of anti-dumping duty up to 30th October 2014.
Honestly, this notification expired on 30th October 2013 - but now the Government has extended it till 30th October 2014 - 13 days after its death!!!
Will they ever wake up before the expiry of these notifications?
Notification No. , Dated: November 12, 2013
