NEW DELHI – The Indian government has imposed a provisional anti-dumping duty on the import of Chinese aluminium foil for six months, the finance ministry said in a notification late on Monday. 

The duty will be imposed on Chinese aluminium foil of up to 80 microns, excluding aluminium foil below 5.5 micron for non-capacitor application, the notification said. The government will levy anti-dumping duty between $619 per tonne and $873 per tonne, depending on the producer of the aluminium foil and whether the product originated in China or is exported from China. 

The commerce ministry's Directorate General of Trade Remedies had in August recommended anti-dumping duty on aluminium foil of up to 80 microns. The directorate had carried out an investigation and found that the subject goods were exported to India from China at a price below the normal value, resulting in dumping. The investigation also revealed that the domestic industry suffered material injury form the dumped imports of aluminum foil from China, and had recommended imposition of provisional anti-dumping duty on such imports.  End
