According to the final ruling of the first countervailing duty (CVD) sunset review, India decided to continue the CVD imposition on welded stainless steel pipes and tubes originating in or exported from China and Vietnam, and the validity is five years. The revocation of the existing CVD measure is believed to lead to the continuation or recurrence of subsidization and injury to the domestic industry.

The CVD rate for China is 29.88% of the CIF value, and Vietnam received a duty rate ranging from 0% to 11.96%.

The products involved are under HS codes 7304 11 10, 7304 11 90, 7304 41 00, 7304 51 10, 7304 90 00, 7305 11 29, 7305 90 99, 7306 11 00, 7306 21 00, 7306 29 19, 7306 30 90, 7306 40 00, 7306 50 00, 7306 61 00, 7306 69 00, 7306 90 11, 7306 90 19, and 7306 90 90.
