Anti Dumping Duty on Acetone - Re-imposed - No Resurrection
ANTI Dumping Duty on Acetone falling under tariff item 2914 11 00 originating in or exported from Korea ROK was imposed by Notification No. 75/2008-Customs, dated 10th June, 2008. This expired on 10th June 2013. And the Government was sleeping. They woke up on 25th June and extended it till 9th June 2014. Again it expired on 10th June 2014. Again the Government was sleeping.
Now they have again imposed the duty with effect from 18th February 2015 for a period of another five years.
There was no anti dumping duty on this product during the period 10th June 2014 to 17th February. Was there no dumping during this period?
The original notification 75/2008-Cus referred to imposition of anti dumping duty on imports from Korea ROK, which is Republic of Korea i.e South Korea. The present notification refers to Korea RP. Are they are referring to the same country?
Notification No.,. Dated: February 18, 2015
