The elements of costs referred to in the context of determination of normal value shall normally be determined on the basis of records kept by the exporter or producer under investigation, provided such records are in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles of the exporting country, and such records reasonably reflect the cost associated with production and sale of the article under consideration. 2. Sales of the like product in the domestic market of the exporting country or sales to a third country at prices below per unit (fixed and variable) costs of production plus administrative, lling and general costs may be treated as not being in the ordinary cour of trade by reason of price. The designated authority may disregard the sales, in determining normal value, provided it has determined that- (i) such sales are made within a reasonable period of time (not less than six months) in substantial quantities, i.e. when the weighted average lling price of the article is below the weighted average per unit costs or when the volume of the sales below per unit costs reprents not less than twenty per cent of the volume sold in transactions under consideration, and (ii) such sales are at prices which do not provide for the recovery of all costs within a reasonable period of time. The said prices will be considered to provide for recovery of costs within a reasonable period of time if they are above weighted average per unit costs for the period of investigation, even though they might have been below per unit costs at the time of sale. 3. (i) The said authority in the cour of investigation shall consider all available evidence on the proper allocation of costs, including that which is made available by the exporter or producer provided that such allocation has been historically utilized by the exporter or producer, in relation to establishing appropriate amortization and depreciation periods and allowances for capital expenditure and other development costs. (ii) unless already reflected in allocation of costs referred to in clau (1) and sub-clau (i) above, the designated authority, will also make appropriate adjustments for tho non-recurring items of cost which benefits further and/or current production, or for circumstances in which costs during the period of investigation are affected by start up operation. 4. The amounts for administrative, lling and general costs and for profits as referred to in sub-ction (1) of ction 9A of the Act, shall be bad on actual data pertaining to production and sales in the ordinary cour of trade, of the like article by the exporter or producer under investigation. When such amounts cannot be determined on this basis, the amounts may be determined on the basis of: (i) the actual amounts incurred and realized by the exporter or producer in question, in respect of production and sales in the domestic market of the country of origin of the same general category of article; (ii) the weighted average of the actual amounts incurred and realized by other exporters or producers subject to investigation in respect of production and sales of the like article in the domestic market of the country of origin; or (iii) any other reasonable method, provided that the amount for profit so established shall not exceed the profit normally realized by the exporters or producers on sales of products of the same general category in the domestic market of the countryof origin. 5. The designated authority, while arriving at a constructed export price, shall give due allowance for costs including duties and taxes, incurred between importation and resale and for profits. 6. (i) While arriving at margin of dumping, the designated authority shall make a fair comparison between the export price and the normal value. The comparison shall be made at the same level of trade, normally at the ex-factory level, and in respect of sales made at as nearly as possibly the same time. Due allowance shall be made in each ca, on its merits, for differences which affect price comparitibility, including differences in conditions and in terms of sale, taxation, levels of trade, quantities, physical characteristics, and any other differences which are demonstrated to affect price comparability. (ii) In the cas where export prices is a constructed one, the comparison shall be made only after establishing the normal value at equivalent level of trade. (iii) When the comparison under this para requires a conversion of currencies , such conversion should be made by using the rate of exchange on the date of sale, provided that when a sale on foreign currency on forward markets is directly linked to the export sale involved the rate of exchange in the forward sale shall be ud. Fluctuations in exchange rates shall be ignored and in an investigation the exporters shall be given at least sixty days to have adjusted their export prices to reflect the sustained movements in exchange rates during the period of investigation. (iv) Subject to the provisions governing comparison in this paragraph, the existence of margin dumping during the investigation pha shall normally be established on the basis of comparison of a weighted average normal value and export prices on a transaction-to- transaction basis. A normal value established on a weighted average basis may be compared to the prices of the individual export transactions if it is found that the pattern of export prices which differs significantly among different purchars, regions or time periods and if an explanation is provided as to why such differences cannot be taken into account appropriately by the u of weighted-average -to-weighted average or transaction-to-transaction comparison. 7. In ca of imports from non-market economy countries, normal value shall be determined on the basis if the price or constructed value in the market economy third country, or the price from such a third country to other countries, including India or where it is not possible, or on any other reasonable basis, including the price actually paid or payable in India for the like product, duly adjusted if necessary, to include a reasonable profit margin. An appropriate market economy third country shall be lected by the designated authority in a reasonable manner, keeping in view the level of development of the country concerned and the product in question, and due account shall be taken of any reliable information made available at the time of lection. Accounts shall be taken within time limits, where appropriate, of the investigation made in any similar matter in respect of any other market economy third country. The parties to the investigation shall be informed without any unreasonable delay the aforesaid lection of the market economy third country and shall be given a reasonable period of time to offer their comments. 8.

(ii) While examining the volume of dumped imports, the said authority shall consider whether there has been a significant increa in the dumped imports, either in absolute terms or relative to production or consumption in India. With regard to the affect of the dumped imports on prices as referred to in sub-rule (2) of rule 18 the designated authority shall consider whether there has been a significant price under cutting by the dumped imports as compared with the price of like product in India, or whether the effect of such imports is otherwi to depress prices to a significant degree or prevent price increa which otherwi would have occurred, to a significant degree. (iii) In cas where imports of a product from more than one country are being simultaneously subjected to anti-dumping investigation, the designated authority will cumulatively asss the effect of such imports, only when it determines that (a) the margin of dumping established in relation to the imports from each country is more than two per cent expresd as percentage of export price and the volume of the imports from each country is three per cent of the import of like article or where the export of individual countries less than three per cent, the imports collectively accounts for more than ven per cent of the import of like article and (b) cumulative asssment of the effect of imports is appropriate in light of the conditions of competition between the imported article and the like domestic articles. (iv) The examination of the impact of the dumped imports on the domestic industry concerned, shall include an evaluation of all relevant economic factors and indices having a bearing on the state of the industry, including natural and potential decline in sales, profits, output, market share, productivity, return on investments or utilization of capacity; factors affecting domestic prices; the magnitude of the margin of dumping; actual and potential negative effects on cash flow, inventories, employment, wages, growth, ability to rai capital investments.

The designated authority shall also examine any known factors other than the dumped imports which at the same time are injuring the domestic industry, and the injury caud by the other factors must not be attributed to the dumped imports. Factors which may be relevant in this respect include, inter alia, the volume and prices of imports not sold at dumping prices, contraction in demand or changes in the patterns of consumption, trade restrictive practices of and competition between the foreign and domestic producers, developments in technology and the export performance and the productivity of the domestic industry. (vi) The effect of the dumped imports shall be assd in relation to the domestic production of the like article when available data permit the parate identification of that production on the basis of such criteria as the production process, producers' sales and profits. If such parate identification of that production is not possible, the effects of the dumped imports shall be assd by the examination of the production of the narrowest group or range of products, which includes the like product, for which the necessary information can be provided. 母树林(vii) A determination of a threat of material injury shall be bad on facts and not merely on allegation, conjecture or remote possibility. The change in circumstances which would create a situation in which the dumping would cau injury must be clearly foreen and imminent. In making a determination regarding the existence of a threat of material injury, the designated authority shall consider, inter alia, such factors as : (a) a significant rate of increa of dumped imports into India indicating the likelihood of substantially incread importation; (b) sufficient freely disposable, or an imminent, substantial increa in, capacity of the exporter indicating the likelihood of substantially incread dumped exports to Indian markets, taking into account the availability of other export markets to absorb any additional exports; (c) whether imports are entering at prices that will have a significant depressing or suppressing effect on domestic prices, and would likely increa demand for further imports; and (d) inventories of the article being investigated. |
