K.R. Srivats

New Delhi, April 16 The Finance Ministry has imposed definitive anti-dumping duty on sodium hydrosulphite imports from Germany and South Korea. This duty is applicable for five years. Imports of sodium hydrosulphite from these two countries were subjected to anti-dumping duty till March 31, 2009.

Sodium hydrosulphite is a white crystalline powder that finds application as a reducing agent, sulfonating agent and cation source for textile, pulp and paper, leather, foods and beverages, polymers, chemical processing, water treatment, gas purification and environmental improvement.

The anti-dumping duty would be equivalent to the difference between $1,034.76 a tonne and the “landed value” of imported goods.
