Anti Dumping - Government amends a Non Existing entry in Notification

GOVERNMENT had imposed anti dumping duty on Rubber Chemical PX-13 with effect from 5.5.2008, by Notification No. 133/2008, dated 12.12.2008. Sl. No. 4 of the table to the Notification was:

By Notification No. 93/2011-Cus, dated 20.9.2011, the above entry No. 4 was omitted.

Now, the Government has amended the amount Rs. 10.35 to Rs. 5.90 in the omitted Sl. No 4 above.

So, perhaps, no one will complain!

Can they amend an entry they deleted in 2011?

The Notification states that it would be effective from 5.5.2008 to 19.9.2011.

Does this amendment have something to do with the decision reported as ?

Maybe the Board can seriously consider amending the Statutes retrospectively without going to Parliament.
