The Department of Commerce has completed its third sunset reviews on antidumping duty orders for carbazole violet pigment 23 (CVP-23) from India and China. It found that removing these orders would likely result in continued or renewed dumping, with potential dumping margins going up to 241.32% for China and 44.80% for India. The decision was made after Sun Chemical Corporation participated in the review, but no substantial responses were received from other parties. Commerce conducted expedited reviews because there were no substantive responses from respondent interested parties.
Simple Explanation
The U.S. Department of Commerce studied and decided that if they removed special rules stopping some companies in India and China from selling a purple color powder (called CVP-23) too cheaply in America, these companies would likely start doing it again.
