Section 1, dated the 7th November 2019, has come to the conclusion that-
(i) the product under consideration has been imported to India from the subject
countries below its associated normal value, thus, resulting in dumping of
the product; (ii) the domestic industry has suffered continued injury on
account of dumped imports from the subject countries; (iii)the information
on record shows likelihood of continuation of dumping and injury in case the
antidumping duty in force is allowed to cease at this stage; and (iv)
examination of the information on record as well as the submissions made by
various parties indicate that the imports from the subject countries continue
to injure the Indian domestic industry. (v) there is sufficient evidence to
indicate that the revocation of the anti-dumping duties as this stage will
lead to continuation of dumping and injury to the domestic industry,
and has
recommended the imposition of definitive anti-dumping duty on the imports of
subject goods,originating in or exported from the subject countries and
imported into India, in order to remove injury to the domestic industry.
