According to paragraphs 87 and 88 of the Secretariat Report: "As of 30 June 2010, the average length of an anti dumping measure applied by India was 56.7 months. The longest lasting measure was 161 months (acrylonitrile butadiene rubber from Korea); 18 duties had been in place for over 10 years, and 81 measures for at least 5 years.
During 2006 10, 113 sunset reviews were initiated. They resulted in the elimination of the measure in 38 cases, and in re imposition in 57 cases; the remaining cases were pending as of late 2010."
6. In the case of sunset reviews of anti dumping measures, does the Investigating Authority perform new calculations in order to establish dumping and modify the margin of dumping and hence the corresponding anti dumping duty?
Reply: During the sunset review investigations, the Authority performs new calculations of dumping margin for the period of investigation of the review. The dumping margin of the review investigation can be modified, or may remain the same depending upon the outcome of the review investigation.
7. What is the established time period for conducting the prospective analyses of serious injury and causal link?
Reply: In review investigation, the time period for conducting prospective analysis of likelihood of dumping and injury is mentioned in the exporters' questionnaire (part 2) and is generally up to two years after the period of investigation (POI) of review.
