Core Purpose

This corrigendum notification clarifies the calculation methodology for countervailing duty in relation to anti-dumping duty for imports of "Digital Offset Printing Plates" originating in or exported from China PR and Taiwan.

Detailed Summary

The Ministry of Commerce and Industry (Department of Commerce), Directorate General of Trade Remedies, issued a Corrigendum Notification on June 5, 2025, for Case No. CVD (OI) – 03/2023, concerning the Final Findings in the Countervailing Duty Investigation on imports of "Digital Offset Printing Plates" from China PR and Taiwan. This corrigendum adds a paragraph below paragraph 288 of the Final Finding Notification F. No. 6/25/2023 – DGTR dated March 28, 2025. This addition, made with regard to the Customs Tariff Act, 1975, and the Customs Tariff (Identification, Determination and Assessment of Countervailing Duties and Injury) Rules, 1995, specifies the calculation of countervailing duty (CVD) when anti-dumping duty (ADD) is also payable under Notification No. 28/2024-Customs (ADD) dated 26.12.2024. For Serial No. 1, 3, 7, and 8, the CVD is the difference between the CVD mentioned in Col. No. 7 and any payable ADD. For Serial No. 2 and 4, if the differential between CVD in Col. No. 7 and payable ADD is negative or zero, no CVD shall be collected. For Serial No. 5 and 6, where the sum of CVD and ADD exceeds the injury margin, the CVD is the difference between the injury margin and the ADD mentioned in Col. No. 7 (S. No. 6 residual category), resulting in differential duties of 0.01 USD/SQM for producer at Serial No. 5 and 0.31 USD/SQM for producer at Serial No. 5. For Serial No. 9 and 10, the CVD is imposed in addition to the ADD, as the recommended subsidy margin and ADD are less than the injury margin (CVD = Duty in Col. 7). The notification specifically excludes waterless CtP Plates used for printing on specialised materials such as credit cards, security cards, etc., and not on paper. The notification is signed by Siddharth Mahajan, Designated Authority.
