The anti-dumping duty is imposed to provide relief to the domestic industry as a whole.   As per Annexure-II of the Anti-dumping Rules, the Designated Authority examines the volume of dumped imports, the effect of dumped imports on prices in the domestic market and consequent impact of these imports on domestic industry. While conducting anti-dumping investigations, parameters like capacity of production of the subject goods, capacity utilization, demand, volume of imports, wages, prices etc. are taken into consideration.

Provisional duties are imposed to provide immediate relief to the domestic industry subject to completion of inquiry process. As per Rule 13 of Customs Tariff (Identification, Assessment and Collection of Anti-dumping Duty on Dumped Articles and for determination of injury) Rules, 1995, provisional anti-dumping duties are imposed for a period not exceed 6 months time.

This information was given by Minister of State in the Ministry of Steel Shri Vishnu Deo Sai in reply to a question in Rajya Sabha today.
