the 5th August, 2011, published in the Gazette of India, Extraordinary, Part I,
Section 1, dated the 5th August, 2011, had come to the conclusion that-
(i) the subject
goods were entering the Indian market from the subject country at dumped prices
and dumping margins of the subject goods imported from the subject country was
significant and above de-minimis. The subject goods
continue to be exported to India at dumped prices in spite of existing anti
dumping duties;

situation of the domestic industry had improved due to existing anti-dumping
duties, it is noted that price undercutting and price underselling were
significant from the subject country. Hence, injury to the domestic industry is
likely to recur in case the present anti-dumping duties are not modified.

at modified rates, against imports of the subject goods, originating in, or
exported from, the subject country, so as to remove injury to the domestic
industry;
Now, therefore, in exercise of the powers conferred

of 1975) read with rules 18 and 23 of the said rules, the Central Government,
