              17.60.  The NSR can be initiated by the Authority on receipt of an Application

              17.61.  The NSR can be filed and initiated only before the expiry of existing duty.
              The application can be filed any time after the imposition of Duty but 12 months
              before the expiry of the existing anti-dumping duties as per the timelines prescribed.

              17.62.  NSR is filed only for limited purpose of seeking individual duty by an exporter
              from the exporting country against whom duty has been imposed.

              exported the subject goods to India during the POI of the previous original/review
              investigation and neither related to any producer/exporter who have exported the
              subject goods to India during the original/review investigation. For related party
              details, please refer to chapter 19 of this manual.

              17.64.  It may be desirable that the exporter has some track records of actual
              exports to India on the date of filing of NSR application in order to establish its

              applicant and finding sufficient justification for initiation of a New-shipper review
