Anti Dumping Duty on vitrified and porcelain tiles
Anti Dumping Duty on imports of vitrified and porcelain tiles, other than vitrified industrial tiles originating in, or exported from, the People's Republic of China (China PR) and United Arab Emirates was imposed by Notification No. 73/2003-Customs, dated the 1 st May, 2003.
On a sunset review of the anti dumping duty, the Designated Authority had concluded that there is no dumping taking place from United Arab Emirates , but if the duty is withdrawn, the goods are likely to enter Indian market at dumped prices from China .
So the anti dumping duty was freshly imposed on the goods originating from China , by Notification No. 82/2008 – Cus dated 27.06.2008.
The Designated Authority on the basis of its new shipper review final findings, held that the dumping margin of the vitrified porcelain tiles manufactured by M/s Foshan Nanhai Jing Yu Ceramics Ltd. Foshan China, People's Republic of China and exported by M/s Shye International, Hong Kong was found to be de minimis and recommended that no anti-dumping duty be imposed on imports of said vitrified or porcelain tiles produced by M/s Foshan Nanhai Jing Yu Ceramics Ltd, Foshan China, People's Republic of China and exported by M/s Shye International, Hong Kong.
Based on the recommendations of the DA, the Government has exempted the above parties from the Anti Dumping Duty.
