Determination of Net Export Price

practice of the Authority, to compare the export price and normal value at ex-
factory level.

OPERATING PRACTICES
12.4. The Act and the Rules on Trade Remedy Measures have not defined the
term “exporter”. In the context of investigations, it is generally understood to be
the producer whose goods have finally been exported to India.

12.5. “Export Price” is the price at which the subject goods under investigation,
are sold or agreed to be sold, for export to India. EP is generally based on the price
to the first unaffiliated purchaser in India. As the comparison of EP and NV/CNV has
to be done at the same level of trade, there is a requirement to calculate ex- factory
net export price (NEP). Therefore, appropriate adjustments are required to be made
in export price (CIF/FOB/FOR etc.) for determination of NEP.

Pre-Initiation:
12.6. An application seeking initiation of investigation should be accompanied
with complete information in the prescribed formats duly signed and certified. This
information forms the basis for computation of NEP for the purpose of initiation of
