India imposes anti-dumping duty on import of Opal Glassware from China, UAE

12 Aug 2011 Evaluate

The Finance Ministry has imposed provisional anti-dumping duty for six month on the ‘opal glassware’ imports from China and the United Arab Emirates (UAE). The imposition is based on the recommendations of the Designated Authority in the Commerce Ministry, who has imposed a provisional anti-dumping duty of $0.82 a kg on all types of ‘opal glassware’ produced and exported by Wenzhou Huishunda Industrial Trade Co Ltd, China.

And for other Chinese producers and exporters of ‘opal glassware’ the anti-dumping duty has been pegged at $0.98/kg. For the UAE, the duty has been pegged at $0.68/kg for all producers and exports of ‘opal glassware.’

Opal glass is a milky white glass generally used in lighting fixtures and tableware. It has a property of diffusing light which makes opal glassware attractive. The glassware is normally used for serving including serving of tea, coffee, soup and snacks.

Dumping occurs when the export price of goods imported into India is less than the normal value of ‘like articles’ sold in the domestic market of the exporter. Imports at cheap or low prices do not per se indicate dumping. Anti-dumping action can be taken only when there is an Indian industry which produces ‘like articles’ when compared to the allegedly dumped imported goods. The article produced in India must either be identical to the dumped goods in all respects or in the absence of such an article, another article that has characteristics closely resembling those goods.
