FOREWORD
The Directorate of Anti-Dumping and Allied Duties, now
restructured as Directorate General of Trade Remedies, is the nodal
agency for Trade Remedial Actions in India under Article VI of the
General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT 1947) on Anti-Dumping,
Countervailing Duties and Safeguard Duties.
The legal text of the National Legislation and the GATT Agreement
was earlier published by the Directorate in 2004 for easy reference
of the investigators. There have been several amendments since then,
therefore, it was felt appropriate to publish this edition thereby making
available a revised updated ready reckoner of all the relevant legislation,
namely the Customs Tariff Act (Sections 9A, 9B, 9C for Anti-Dumping;
Sections 9, 9B, 9C for Countervailing Duties; Sections 8B for Safeguard
Duty); Foreign Trade Development and Regulation Act 1992 amended
in 2010 (Section 9A -Chapter IIIA on Quantitative Restrictions) and
the applicable Rules along with the relevant extracts from the GATT
Agreement.
The details of formats, questionnaires and notifications concerning
respective investigations are available on the website www.dgtr.gov.in
