Notice concerning countervailing measures on imports of stainless steel bars originating in India

(2002/C 16/04)

By its judgment of 19 September 2001 in case T-58/99, Mukand Ltd, Isibars Ltd, Ferro Alloys Corporation Ltd
and Viraj Impoexpo Ltd v Council of
the European Union, the Court of First Instance of the European
Communities (CFI) annulled Council Regulation (EC) No 2450/98 of 13 November 1998 (1) imposing a
definitive countervailing duty on imports of stainless steel bars originating in India and collecting
definitively the provisional duty, in so far as it concerns imports into the European Community of
stainless steel bars manufactured by:

(cid:151) Mukand Ltd, established in Mumbai,

(cid:151) Isibars Ltd, established in Mumbai,

(cid:151) Ferro Alloys Corporation Ltd, established in Nagpur, and

(cid:151) Viraj Impoexpo Ltd, established in Mumbai.

As no appeal was lodged before the Court of Justice of the European Communities, the judgment of 19
September 2001 is definitive.

Consequently, the definitive countervailing duties paid and the provisional duties definitively collected
pursuant to Regulation (EC) No 2450/98 on imports into the European Community of stainless steel
bars falling within CN codes 7222 20 11, 7222 20 21, 7222 20 31 and 7222 20 81 manufactured by
the abovementioned companies (under additional TARIC codes 8403, 8402, 8400, 8410) should be
reimbursed. The reimbursement must be requested from national customs authorities in accordance
with applicable national customs legislation.

As a consequence of the judgment of 19 September 2001, Mukand Ltd (Mumbai), Isibars Ltd (Mumbai),
Ferro Alloys Corporation Ltd (Nagpur) and Viraj Impoexpo Ltd (Mumbai) are no longer subject to the
countervailing measures imposed by Regulation (EC) No 2450/98 of 13 November 1998.
