It recommends anti-dumping duty of $0.94/kg to $3.29/kg on Ciprofloxacin HCL from China. The move comes after a complaint by Aarti Drugs.
As per the complaint, the market share of domestic players for the drug has declined with imports creating suppressing effect on prices. Production and sales of the domestic industry has also declined and players have suffered financial and cash losses due to imports.
