Anti Dumping Duty
Dumping is a process of selling goods abroad at a price below that charged in the domestic market. Foreign sellers abroad do this to capture Indian markets to the detriment of Indian industry. This is an unfair trade practice which can have a distortive effect on international trade.
Anti dumping is a measure to rectify the situation arising out of the dumping of goods and its trade distortive effect. Thus, the purpose of anti dumping duty is to rectify the trade distortive effect of dumping and re-establish fair trade. The Central Government may levy additional duty equal to margin of dumping on such articles if the goods have been sold at less than normal value. Dumping Margin is the difference between the Normal value and the export price of the goods under complaint. It is generally expressed as a percentage of the export price.
After the exact rate of dumping duty is finally determined. Dumping duty can be imposed even when goods are imported indirectly or after changing the condition of goods. The imposition of anti dumping duty is based on commodity to commodity, country to country and suppliers in exporting countries.
The Govt. has appointed Additional Secretary to the Govt. of India Ministry of Commerce as designated Authority for purpose of identification, assessment and collection of Anti Dumping Duty on dumped articles and for determination of injury.

If the volume of the dumped imports, actual or potential, from a particular country accounts for less than 3% of the total imports of the like product then investigation against any country is terminated
