final findings published in the Gazette

14/47/2016-DGAD, dated the 26th

industry has been prevented
from
increasing its production, capacity utilization and market share despite existence of significant demand and capacities in the country;

in profits, return on capital employed and cash profits are directly a result of dumped imports.

the
domestic industry.
