What is the period to which the information will relate; that is to say what is Period of Investigation in anti-dumping cases?
Ans. All the information and evidence furnished in the application in relation to dumping, injury and causal link must pertain to a definite period which is called the period of investigation. Broadly, there are indications that such period should not be, in any case, less than six months and not more than eighteen months. It is, however, important that the period taken into consideration for detailed investigation into dumping and injury should be as representative and as recent as possible. The most desirable period of investigation is a financial year provided there is reasonable proximity between the end of the financial year and the filing of the application. However, for the purposes of injury analysis, the domestic industry has to furnish the relevant data for the past three years.
