Top Management Attested Documents Must for Filing Anti-dumping Petitions

[DGAD Trade Notice No. 02 dated 3rd August 2015]

Subject: Authenticity of supporting documents/information received during the processing of anti-dumping cases.

The processing of Anti-Dumping Petitions in DGAD requires clarifications and supporting documents from the Petitioners to facilitate examination of these petitions. It is, therefore, necessary that correct, complete and authentic information is submitted by the interested parties without withholding any important information.

2. It is noticed that the supporting documents and clarifications provided by the interested parties/consultants during Anti-Dumping investigations after submission of original petition are not authenticated. This leads to the need for seeking further clarifications/supporting documents. This may delay/impede the AD proceeding.

3. In view of above, it is hereby directed that all documents/financial information/supporting evidence provided after submission of the complete and duly authenticated original petition, shall henceforth be duly authenticated by the Chief Executive of the Company/Director/Partner or the Proprietor of the firm/duly Authorised Officer of company/firm filing the Petition/response to the questionnaire.

4. This is issued with approval of Designated Authority.
