The government extended anti-dumping duty on various steel products until December 15, intending to guard domestic manufacturers from cheap imports from countries like China, Japan, and Korea.
According to two separate notifications by the Department of Revenue, the duties on ‘Hot-Rolled flat products of alloy or non-alloy steel’ exported from China, Japan, Korea, Russia, and Brazil, and on ‘Cold-Rolled flat products of alloy or non-alloy steel’ coming from China, Japan, and Korea, have been extended.
The commerce ministry’s investigation arm Directorate General of Trade Remedies (DGTR), had recommended for the extension of the duty on these products. While DGTR suggests the duty to be levied, the finance ministry forces it. The duties were imposed in August 2016 for five years.
