The Ministry of Finance issued Notification No. 34/2025–Customs (ADD) on 15 December 2025 to extend the existing anti-dumping duty on imports of “Faced Glass Wool in Rolls” falling under tariff heading 7019 and originating in or exported from China. The extension follows a review initiated by the designated authority in June 2025 under section 9A(5) of the Customs Tariff Act, 1975, read with rule 23 of the Anti-Dumping Rules, 1995, to examine the need for continuation of the duty. Acting on the authority’s request, the Central Government amended the earlier notification of March 2021 that originally imposed the duty. The amendment inserts a new provision clarifying that, notwithstanding the original sunset clause, the anti-dumping duty shall remain in force up to and inclusive of 17 June 2026, unless revoked, superseded, or amended earlier. The notification thus ensures continued trade remedial protection during the pendency of the sunset review process.
