CBIC amends notification No. 15/2023-Customs (ADD) dated 22.12.2023 to change the name of producer “Bystronic (Shenzhen) Laser Technology Co., Ltd” to “DNE LASER (Guangdong) Co., Ltd.” pursuant to DGTR recommendation
The Ministry of Finance, through Notification No. 04/2026-Customs (ADD) dated 8 April 2026, has amended Notification No. 15/2023-Customs (ADD) relating to anti-dumping duty on imports of industrial laser machines from China PR. The amendment follows the recommendation of the Directorate General of Trade Remedies (DGTR) pursuant to its notification dated 28 January 2026. DGTR had examined a request for change in the name of the producer from “Bystronic (Shenzhen) Laser Technology Co., Ltd” to “DNE LASER (Guangdong) Co., Ltd.” and concluded that there was no change in the entity’s shareholders, share capital, ownership, management, legal status, or structure. Based on this finding, DGTR recommended that the name change be incorporated in the original anti-dumping notification issued on 22 December 2023. Acting under the powers conferred by section 9A of the Customs Tariff Act, 1975, read with the relevant Anti-dumping Rules, the Central Government has substituted the name of the producer in the applicable table of the notification. The amendment is limited to the correction of the producer’s name and does not alter the scope, applicability, or rate of anti-dumping duty imposed on the subject goods, which include industrial laser machines used for cutting, marking, or welding. The change ensures consistency between DGTR findings and the corresponding customs notification.
