Dear Members,

 

As you are aware,  the Directorate General Of Trade Remedies (DGTR) had   recommended anti-dumping duties for a period of five year on the imports of “Saturated Fatty Alcohol” from Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand and Saudi Arabia falling under Chapters 29 and 38 vide its final findings notification No. F. 14/51/2016-DGAD, dated the 23rdApril, 2018.

However, we understand that Pt. Energi Sejahtera Mas, (PTESM) producer form Indonesia and Sinarmas Cepsa Pte. Ltd.

Energi Sejahtera Mas, (PTESM) producer from Indonesia and Sinarmas Cepsa Pte. Ltd. (SCPL) exporter from Singapore.

 

In this regard, DGTR has now issued   Notification  dated  24th  September, 2019  regarding  Final Findings of New Shipper Review pertaining to Anti-Dumping Duty imposed on the imports of “Saturated Fatty Alcohols” originating in or exported from Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand and Saudi Arabia, as requested by Pt.

RECOMMENDATIONS AND CONCLUSIONS


After examining the submissions made by the interested parties and issues raised therein; and considering the facts available on record, the Authority concludes that:-

 

The investigation was initiated and notified to all interested parties and adequate opportunity was given to the domestic industry, exporters, importers and other interested parties to provide positive information on the aspects of dumping, injury and the causal link. Having initiated and conducted investigation into dumping in terms of the AD Rules and having established positive dumping margin, the Authority is of the view that imposition of definitive antidumping duty is required to offset dumping. Therefore, the Authority considers it necessary to recommend imposition of definitive anti-dumping duty on imports of the subject goods from subject country in the form and manner described hereunder.
