Section 1 of the Gazette of India, Extraordinary, dated the 2
nd
July 2015 has concluded that
a) the subject goods have continued to enter the Indian market from China PR at prices less than their normal values and
the dumping margin is substantial and above de minimis . However, there has been insignificant imports from Indonesia
though the dumping margin is positive and above de minimis ;
b) the domestic industry has suffered material injury due to the presence of dumped imports from several countries,
including the subject countries, during the injury investigation period;
c) the goods are likely to be exported from China PR at dumped prices in the event of cessation of anti-dumping duty and
dumping is likely to continue from China PR. However, in view of insignificant imports during the injury investigation
period and in the absence of credible evidence supporting likelihood of recurrence of dumping from Indonesia the DA
concludes that there is no imminent likelihood of recurrence of dumping from Indonesia; and
d) injury to the domestic industry is likely to continue in the event of cessation of anti-dumping duty on imports of subject
goods from China PR because of continuation of dumped imports from that country,
and has recommended continuation of anti-dumping duty on imports of subject goods originating in, or exported from,
China PR;
