Anti-dumping Dumping probe on caustic soda imports K.R. Srivats
NEW DELHI, Oct. 20 IMPORTS of sodium hydroxide, commonly known as caustic soda, from Chinese Taipei, Indonesia and the EU (except France) may soon become expensive, with the Designated Authority in the Commerce Ministry launching an anti-dumping probe on imports of caustic soda from these countries. Industry sources pointed out that the launch of a dumping probe usually impacted the import prices of the product involved in the investigation. The Alkali Manufacturers' Association of India had filed the petition seeking anti-dumping probe on caustic soda imports from Chinese Taipei, Indonesia and the EU (except France).
Total imports of caustic soda during 2001-02 stood at 93,291 tonnes. The authority has also recommended a definitive anti-dumping duty on all imports of pentaerythritol from Canada, Japan and Taiwan.
