NTC initiates review on Sorbitol imports

This is the first changed circumstances review initiated under the Pakistan's Anti-dumping Duties Ordinance, 2000 by the NTC. The NTC has already received an application for review for change of circumstances on June 11, 2007 from P.T. Sorini Corporation Tbk, Indonesia an exporter of Sorbitol to Pakistan.

The applicant has claimed that there was change of circumstances that warrant a review under the anti-dumping duty ordinance. The NTC imposed an anti-dumping duty with effect from July 19, 2003 for a period of five years on Sorbitol produced and exported by the applicant. The original investigation was conducted on the basis of an application received from domestic industry producing Sorbitol — Habib Arkady Limited, Karachi.
