Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court set aside the impugned order regarding the anti-dumping duty on Sintered Magnesia without providing reasons, directing the Designated Authority to assess the closure of Birla Periclase's factory and its relation to dumping by Chinese exporters. The Court emphasized that Rule 23 limits the power of review for continuing anti-dumping duties but does not allow for retrospective withdrawal. The Designated Authority must complete the review within three months, ensuring all parties are heard, while the current import arrangements remain in place pending the review outcome.
