Anti-dumping duty on CD-R's

The Finance Ministry has imposed provisional anti-dumping duty ranged between $ 17.52 and $ 63.84 per 1,000 pieces on CD-Rs, the ministry said in a notification.

Countries identified

After reaching a conclusion that "the domestic industry has suffered material injury," the Directorate General of Anti-dumping and Allied Duties (DGAD) had recommended anti- dumping duty on import of the discs from Iran, Thailand, Korea, Malaysia, UAE and Vietnam.

The DGAD had earlier found that the discs were being imported from these countries, at below its normal value, which was causing material injury to the domestic industry.
