Anti dumping duty on Diclofenac Sodium - Another Resurrection

DEFINITIVE Anti dumping Duty was imposed on Diclofenac Sodium, falling under heading 2942 of the First Schedule, originating in, or exported from, People's Republic of China by Notification No.91/2008-Customs, dated 30.07.2008. This was to be effective from 10.04.2008 and to be valid till 09.04.2013.

As usual, they were sleeping on 9th of April 2013. They woke up after seven months and extended the validity of the notification up to and inclusive of the 9th day of April, 2014 by Notification No. 31/2013-CUS (ADD), dated November 13, 2013.

In October 2014, the Designated Authority found that there is continued dumping and that the dumping and injury is likely to continue if the anti dumping duty is revoked. (it had already lapsed)

So, the anti dumping duty is re-imposed with effect from 21.11.2014.

What about the dumping during the period 10.04.2014 to 20.11.2014?
