And another

PROVISIONAL Anti Dumping Duty on imports of Acetone originating in, or exported from, Thailand and Japan, was imposed by Notification No. 45/2010 - Cus dated 9th April 2010. This Notification very clearly mentioned that the Anti Dumping Duty imposed under this notification shall be effective up to and inclusive of October 8, 2010 .

So the notification expired on 9th October, 2010.The Board was in deep slumber for six months.

They woke up in April 2011 and imposed definitive anti dumping duty on these goods for a period of five years, but from the date of provisional anti dumping, that is 9th April, 2010. (Notification No. 36/2011-Cus dated 18.04.2011)

Even this extended resurrected imposition expired on 09.04.2015 and as usual they could not extend it.

Now, after two weeks, they have retrospectively extended it by another year till 8th day of April, 2016.

Notification No.., Dated: April 22 2015
