Denne positive udvikling kan imidlertid i det væsentligste tilskrives, at EF-erhvervsgrenen overtog andre fællesskabsproducenter i 2000.
However, this positive development can essentially be attributed to the take over of another Community producer by the Community industry in 2000.
Siden 2001 har udviklingen i EF-erhvervsgrenens markedsandel endda været vigende.
Since 2001, the trend in market share development for the Community industry is even digressive.
Særlig kan det iagttages, at EF-erhvervsgrenen fra 2000 relativt set ikke har holdt trit med væksten i forbruget i Fællesskabet og den kraftige udvikling, som dens indiske konkurrenter har oplevet på fællesskabsmarkedet.
In particular, it can be observed that as of 2000 the Community industry did not, in relative terms, keep pace with the increase of Community consumption and the strong evolution of its Indian competitors on the Community market.
I denne forbindelse bemærkes det, at gennemsnitspriserne på den subsidierede import fra Indien konsekvent var lavere end EF-erhvervsgrenens priser i den betragtede periode.
In this context, it is noted that the average prices of subsidised imports from India were consistently lower than those of the Community industry during the period considered.
Endvidere lå priserne på importen fra det pågældende land i den fornyede undersøgelsesperiode i gennemsnit under EF-erhvervsgrenens priser.
Moreover, during the review investigation period, the prices of the imports from the country concerned undercut those of the Community industry.
Som vejet gennemsnit udgjorde prisunderbuddet i den fornyede undersøgelsesperiode mellem 11,5 % og 17,1 %.
On a weighted average basis, price undercutting was in the review investigation period between 11,5 and 17,1 %.
Som følge af dette pristryk fra den subsidierede import fra Indien kunne EF-erhvervsgrenen ikke på noget tidspunkt i den betragtede periode opnå et ikke-skadevoldende prisniveau.
As a consequence of this price pressure exercised by subsidised Indian imports, the Community industry was at no time during the period considered in a position to reach non-injurious price levels.
Selv om EF-erhvervsgrenens rentabilitet i første omgang forbedredes efter indførelsen af foranstaltninger, er den forværret siden 2001, og det nuværende niveau er langt under, hvad der med rimelighed kunne være opnået, hvis der ikke var forekommet subsidieret import, dvs. 10 % af omsætningen (se betragtning 260).
Although profitability of the Community industry initially improved after the imposition of measures, it has deteriorated since 2001 and its actual level is well below what it could reasonably have achieved in the absence of subsidised imports, i.e. 10 % on turnover (see recital 260).
Det er imidlertid kun et acceptabelt rentabilitetsniveau, som vedvarende vil sikre, at EF-erhvervsgrenen forbliver levedygtig.
However, only an acceptable level of profitability will allow the Community industry to remain viable in a sustainable way.
Denne negative tendens for EF-erhvervsgrenen afspejles yderligere i det billede, der er fremkommet af udviklingen af afkastet af investeringerne og likviditeten.
This negative tendency for the Community industry is further reflected in the picture displayed by the trends in return on investment and cash flow.
For så vidt angår det bundne salg betød det forhold, at EF-erhvervsgrenen havde mulighed for at sælge en del af sin produktion på det bundne marked, at den kunne opretholde et højt kapacitetsudnyttelsesniveau.
Regarding captive sales, the option for the Community industry to sell part of its production on the captive market provided it with the opportunity to maintain high levels of capacity utilisation.
En høj kapacitetsudnyttelse bidrager til at mindske produktionsomkostningerne på grund af stordriftsfordele.
High capacity utilisation contributes to decrease cost of production because of economies of scale.
Som ovenfor beskrevet var der endvidere ikke væsentlige afvigelser mellem priser og markedsandel for det frie marked og det bundne marked.
Furthermore, as outlined above, the trends in sales volumes, prices and market share between the free and captive markets did not diverge significantly.
Hvis det ikke havde været for den større fortjeneste på det bundne salg, ville erhvervsgrenens finansielle situation have været værre.
In the absence of the higher profits achieved by the industry on captive sales, the industry would be in a worse financial situation.
Det bundne marked bidrog derfor ikke til den skadevoldende situation.
Thus, the captive use did not contribute to the injurious situation.
Tværtimod ville EF-erhvervsgrenen måske have befundet sig i en endnu værre situation uden et bundet marked.
To the contrary, without a captive market the injurious situation of the Community industry might even have been worse.
To eksportører fremførte, at det ikke kan konkluderes, at salget på det bundne marked ikke bidrog til den skade, der er forvoldt EF-erhvervsgrenen, fordi salgspriserne på det bundne marked angiveligt er upålidelige, dvs. at rentabiliteten af det bundne salg kunstigt ville være for høj.
Two exporters contended that it cannot be concluded that the captive market sales did not contribute to the injurious situation of the Community industry, because captive sales prices are allegedly unreliable, i.e. the profitability of captive sales would be artificially too high.
Den højere rentabilitet på det bundne marked skyldtes imidlertid ikke hovedsagelig højere interne afregningspriser, men kan især tilskrives lavere salgs-, general- og administrationsomkostninger (se betragtning 208).
However, higher profitability on the captive market was not mainly the result of higher transfer prices, but in particular attributable to lower SG & A (see recital 208).
Endvidere tager denne bemærkning ikke hensyn til virkningerne af stordrift.
Furthermore, this submission neglects the effect of economies of scale.
Den kan derfor ikke ændre konklusionen om, at det bundne salg ikke bidrog til skaden.
Thus, it cannot change the conclusion that the captive sales did not contribute to the injury.
Det blev derfor bekræftet, at EF-erhvervsgrenen samlet set har lidt væsentlig skade, jf. artikel 8, stk. 1, i grundforordningen.
As a result, it was confirmed that, overall, the Community industry has suffered material injury within the meaning of Article 8(1) of the basic Regulation.
Det skal erindres, at det ikke kræves i grundforordningens artikel 8, stk. 5, at alle økonomiske indikatorer for EF-erhvervsgrenen skal være negative, for at der kan være tale om væsentlig skade.
It should be recalled that Article 8(5) of the basic Regulation does not mandate all economic indicators for the Community industry to be negative in order to establish material injury.
Endvidere har ikke alle økonomiske indikatorer samme vægt.
Moreover, not all economic indicators have the same weight.
Rentabiliteten er imidlertid en af de vigtigste økonomiske indikatorer, da rentabilitet er det endelige mål for enhver virksomhed.
Profitability, though, is one of the key economic indicators, since it constitutes the ultimate goal of every economic undertaking.
I den aktuelle sag blev det fastslået, at rentabilitetsniveauet var utilstrækkeligt.
In the present case, insufficient profitability levels were established.
En anden vigtig skadesindikator med store virkninger for rentabiliteten er priserne.
Another important injury indicator having a major impact on profitability is the price levels.
EF-erhvervsgrenen var i den betragtede periode ikke i stand til at opnå et ikke-skadevoldende prisniveau på det frie marked som følge af et eksternt pristryk, hovedsagelig fra den kraftigt subsidierede import fra Indien.
The Community industry was never in a position to achieve non injurious price levels during the period considered on the free market due to external price pressure, mainly from heavily subsidised Indian imports.
Virkningerne af den subsidierede import
Effect of the subsidised imports
I 2000 mistede Indien — sandsynligvis som følge af indførelsen af foranstaltninger — sin position som den næststørste eksportør til fællesskabsmarkedet, mens eksportører især fra Oman vandt markedsandele.
In 2000, and most likely due to the imposition of measures, India lost its position as the second largest exporter to the Community market for an interim period, whereas notably Omani exporters gained market share.
Siden da har de indiske eksportører ikke blot genvundet deres position, men i den fornyede undersøgelsesperiode blev de endda den største eksportør til Fællesskabet.
However, since then, Indian exporters not only have recovered their position, but in the review investigation period they even took over the lead as the largest exporter to the Community.
Denne vækst i den subsidierede import fra Indien, især siden 2002, faldt sammen med, at EF-erhvervsgrenens rentabilitet i 2002 faldt i forhold til 2001, nemlig med omkring 36 %.
This growth in volume of the subsidised imports from India, in particular since 2002, coincided with the fact that in 2002, the profitability for the Community industry decreased as compared with 2001, i.e. by around 36 %.
Det konstateredes, at en producent i Fællesskabet på dette tidspunkt havde etableret et nyt produktionsanlæg og befandt sig i en opstartsfase, der kan have haft virkninger for dens rentabilitet i den pågældende periode.
It was found that, during this time, one Community producer set up a new plant and found itself in a start-up phase which may have had an effect on its profitability in that period.
Det konstateredes imidlertid også, at den anden EF-producent, der ikke befandt sig i en etableringsfase, oplevede et betydeligt fald i rentabiliteten på 17 % i forhold til 2001, og at dette fald fortsatte i den fornyede undersøgelsesperiode.
However, it was also found that the other Community producer, which was not in a start-up phase, found itself confronted with a significant decrease in profitability, i.e. by 17 % as compared with 2001 which further deteriorated during the review investigation period.
Som anført i betragtning 207 kunne EF-erhvervsgrenen desuden ikke på noget tidspunkt opnå et ikke-skadevoldende prisniveau.
Moreover, as stated under recital 207, at no point in time was the Community industry in a position to reach non-injurious price levels.
Fra 2002 måtte EF-erhvervsgrenen tværtimod sænke priserne for at forsvare sin markedsandel.
To the contrary, again starting in 2002, the Community industry had to adjust prices downwards in order to defend its market share.
Tre eksportører fremførte, at den indiske imports markedsandel i Fællesskabet (2,5 % i undersøgelsesperioden) og dens mængde i forhold til den samlede import (8,4 % i undersøgelsesperioden), som i begge tilfælde havde været svagt faldende i forhold til 2002, var for begrænsede og marginale til at have en skadelig virkning, især i betragtning af EF-erhvervsgrenens større markedsandel.
Upon disclosure, three exporters submitted that the Indian imports share on the Community market, 2,5 % during the IP, and their volume in relation to total imports, 8,4 % during the IP, both of which slightly decreased as compared with 2002, would be too small and marginal to have any injurious impact in particular in view of a bigger market share hold by the Community industry.
Det blev endvidere fremført, at en analyse i relative tal ville være misvisende, fordi Indien havde haft et meget lavt udgangspunkt, nemlig en markedsandel på 1,5 % og en importandel på 3,7 % i 1999.
Furthermore, it was argued that an analysis expressed in relative terms would be misleading, because India started from a very low level, 1,5 % market share and 3,7 % import volume in 1999.
Som svar herpå skal det anføres, at såvel Indiens markedsandel som den importerede mængde i undersøgelsesperioden ligger langt over den bagatelgrænse, der er fastsat i grundforordningens artikel 10, stk. 11, og artikel 14, stk. 4, og derfor kan have en årsagsvirkning.
In reply to this submission it should be considered that both, India’s market share and its import volume during the IP, are well above the de minimis thresholds set in Articles 10(11) and 14(4) of the basic Regulation, thus can have a causal effect.
Ifølge grundforordningens artikel 8, stk. 6, kan sådanne virkninger give sig udslag ved den subsidierede imports mængde eller priser.
According to Article 8(6) of the basic Regulation, a causal effect can be manifested alternatively either by the import volume or by the price levels of subsidised imports.
En sådan virkning på prisniveauet kan klart iagttages i den foreliggende sag.
Such price level impact can clearly be observed in the present case.
Som allerede fastslået i forbindelse med den oprindelige undersøgelse er den pågældende vare, der er en massevare, meget prisfølsom og reagerer hurtigt på ethvert pristryk.
As already established in the course of the original investigation, the product under investigation, a bulk commodity, is highly price sensitive and reacts swiftly to any downward pressure.
I sådanne tilfælde kan små mængder påvirke priserne på markedet.
In such cases small quantities can influence prices on the market.
I den betragtede periode satte de indiske priser faktisk i gennemsnit standarden for pristrykket i dette tilfælde.
In fact, over the period considered the Indian prices set on average the price pressure benchmark in this case.
Det blev derfor bekræftet, at den subsidierede import fra Indien havde en betydelig negativ indflydelse på EF-erhvervsgrenens situation i den betragtede periode, især med hensyn til rentabiliteten.
It was therefore confirmed that the subsidised imports from India had a considerable negative impact on the situation of the Community industry during the period considered, in particular in terms of profitability.

Importen af den pågældende vare fra andre lande end Indien steg kun med 7 % mellem 1999 og den fornyede undersøgelsesperiode, hvilket var langt under væksten i forbruget i Fællesskabet.
Imports of the product under consideration from countries other than India increased by only 7 % between 1999 and the review investigation period, i.e. well below the rate of increase of the Community consumption.
Blandt disse lande er Oman, USA, Kina, Sydkorea og Singapore de vigtigste leverandører til fællesskabsmarkedet.
Amongst these countries, Oman, the United States of America (USA), China, South Korea and Singapore are the main suppliers to the Community market.
Deres gennemsnitlige importpriser var imidlertid betydeligt højere end priserne på importen fra Indien og (bortset fra importpriserne fra Oman) også end EF-erhvervsgrenens priser.
However, their average import prices were considerably higher than the Indian import prices and, except for the import prices from Oman, also the Community industry prices.
Priserne på importen fra Oman er sammenlignelige med EF-erhvervsgrenens priser, men stigningen i Omans markedsandel i den betragtede periode var meget mindre udtalt end for de øvrige tredjelande.
Import prices of Oman are at comparable levels to the Community industry’s prices, but Oman’s increase in market share over the period considered was much less pronounced than that for the other third countries.
Den indiske regering og to eksportører fremførte, at der burde være taget hensyn til den gældende udligningstold på importen fra Indien ved sammenligningen af de gennemsnitlige salgspriser.
Following disclosure, it was submitted by the GOI and two exporters that the countervailing duty in place for Indian imports should have been taken into consideration when comparing average sales prices.
Dette ville angiveligt have vist næsten identiske priser på importen fra Indien og Oman.
This would allegedly lead to practically similar Indian and Omani price levels.
Desuden blev det bemærket, at gennemsnitspriserne for nogle tredjelande, især USA og Kina, faldt betydeligt i løbet af den betragtede periode, mens bl.a. de indiske priser steg.
In addition, it was noted that average prices from some third countries, notably the USA and China, decreased significantly over the period considered whereas, inter alia, Indian prices increased.
Endvidere fremførte en anden eksportør, at der ikke er taget behørigt hensyn til faldet i importmængden fra Indien mellem 2002 og den fornyede undersøgelsesperiode i analysen, at andre tredjelande var de vigtigste leverandører, og at de sydkoreanske og indiske gennemsnitspriser svarede til hinanden fra 1999 til 2001.
Furthermore, it was submitted by another exporter that the volume decrease in Indian imports between 2002 and the review investigation period has not been properly taken into account in the analysis, that other third countries were the main suppliers and that average prices from South Korea and India were similar from 1999 to 2001.
For så vidt angår den gældende oprindelige udligningstold skal det bemærkes, at langt hovedparten af importen fra Indien enten var genstand for nultold eller for en toldsats, der stadig fører til lavere gennemsnitspriser end for importen fra Oman.
With regard to the original countervailing duty in place, it should be noted that the vast majority of imports from India were either subject to a zero duty rate or to a duty rate which still leads to lower average landing prices than the average Omani price levels.
I gennemsnit udøvede importen fra Oman derfor ikke samme grad af pristryk.
Thus, on average Omani imports did not exercise the same degree of price pressure.
Desuden var priserne på importen fra alle andre tredjelande i gennemsnit højere i den betragtede periode end priserne på importen fra Indien, hvilket igen klart identificerer Indien som den vigtigste kilde til pristryk.
In addition, import prices from all other third countries as well were on average higher over the period considered than Indian price levels, again clearly identifying India as main source of price pressure.
Dette har selvfølgelig haft en indvirkning på handelen med den pågældende vare.
This, of course, had an impact on the trade flow of the product concerned.
Til trods for foranstaltningerne har der desuden været en kraftig vækst i importen fra Indien siden 2001, og Indien genvandt i 2002 sin position som den næststørste eksportør for derefter at blive den største i undersøgelsesperioden.
Moreover, despite measures, Indian imports grew strongly since 2001 and India recovered its position as second largest exporter in 2002 to become during the IP even the biggest.
Det lille fald i importen fra Indien mellem 2002 og undersøgelsesperioden havde derfor ingen virkning på markedet, der belønnede den indiske prispolitik.
Therefore, the small decrease in Indian imports between 2002 and the IP had no effect on the market, which eventually rewarded the Indian pricing policy.
Disse argumenter kan derfor ikke godtages.
Consequently, these arguments cannot be accepted.
Det bekræftes derfor, at importen fra tredjelande ikke kunne have forvoldt EF-erhvervsgrenen nogen skade, der bryder årsagssammenhængen mellem den subsidierede import fra Indien og den skade, som EF-erhvervsgrenen har lidt.
It was therefore confirmed that imports from third countries could not have caused any injury to the Community industry which would break the causal link between the subsidised imports from India and the injury suffered by the Community industry.
Udviklingen i forbruget på fællesskabsmarkedet
Development of consumption of the Community market
Forbruget på fællesskabsmarkedet af den vare, der er omfattet af undersøgelsen, steg med 51 % i løbet af den betragtede periode.
Consumption of the product under investigation on the Community market increased by 51 % during the period considered.
Den skade, som er forvoldt EF-erhvervsgrenen, kan derfor ikke tilskrives faldende efterspørgsel på fællesskabsmarkedet.
Thus, the injury suffered by the Community industry cannot be attributed to a contraction of demand on the Community market.
EF-erhvervsgrenens eksportaktiviteter
Export activity of the Community industry
EF-erhvervsgrenen forbedrede sine eksportresultater med 16 % i den betragtede periode.
The export performance of the Community industry grew by 16 % during the period considered.
EF-erhvervsgrenens eksportpriser var i gennemsnit 10 % til 15 % højere end salgspriserne i Fællesskabet.
The Community industry’s export prices were on average 10 to 15 % higher than the sales prices in the Community.
EF-erhvervsgrenens eksportaktiviteter kunne således ikke bidrage til den skadelige situation, som den befandt sig i.
Thus, the Community industry’s export activity could not contribute to its injurious situation.
I denne forbindelse fremførte den indiske regering og en eksportør, at EF-erhvervsgrenen i sin besvarelse af spørgeskemaet havde oplyst, at kraftig konkurrence fra indiske konkurrenter på tredjelandes markeder havde ført til lave priser og tab af markedsandel i tredjelande for EF-erhvervsgrenen, hvilket var i modstrid med ovennævnte undersøgelsesresultater.
In this context it was submitted by the GOI and one exporter that the Community industry in their questionnaire replies mentioned stiff competition due to Indian competitors on third country markets resulting for the Community industry in low prices and loss of market share in third countries, which prima facie would contradict above finding.
Hvis dette udsagn fra EF-erhvervsgrenen blev lagt til grund, ville der derfor ikke være tale om skade på fællesskabsmarkedet eller årsagssammenhæng med importen fra Indien.
Thus, on the basis of this assessment of the Community industry there would be no injury on the Community market or no causal link with Indian imports.
I denne forbindelse bemærkes det, at i betragtning af den globale vækst på markedet for sådanne varer er der ingen modstrid mellem et fald i eksportpriserne og EF-erhvervsgrenens markedsandel i tredjelande og det forhold, at eksportmængden faktisk var steget, og at priserne på de eksporterede varer var højere end EF-erhvervsgrenens priser ved salg i Fællesskabet.
In this respect, it is noted that given the worldwide growth of the market for such products, there is no contradiction between any decrease of export prices and loss of market share of the Community industry in third countries and the fact that the volume of such exports had actually increased and that their prices were higher than the Community industry’s prices for sales in the Community.
Selv om EF-erhvervsgrenens eksportresultater kunne have været bedre, hvis der ikke havde været konkurrence fra subsidieret lavpriseksport fra Indien på tredjelandes markeder, er der derfor intet, der tyder på, at EF-erhvervsgrenen på grund af sine eksportresultater ikke var genstand for skadevoldende priskonkurrence på fællesskabsmarkedet, som overvejende var forårsaget af den subsidierede lavprisimport fra Indien.
Therefore, although the export performance of the Community industry could have been better without a low priced subsidised Indian exports competition in third countries markets, there is no indication that, because of its export performance, the Community industry was not subject to injurious price competition on the Community market essentially caused by the low priced subsidised imports from India.
Argumentet bør derfor afvises.
Thus the argument should be rejected.
EF-erhvervsgrenens konkurrenceevne
Competitiveness of the Community industry
Som det fremgår af dens markedsandel, er EF-erhvervsgrenen en vigtig konkurrent i forbindelse med den pågældende vare, og den har løbende foretaget investeringer i et tidssvarende produktionsapparat.
The Community industry is an important competitor for the product under consideration as demonstrated by its market share and has constantly invested to maintain the state-of-the-art in its production.
Faldet i produktiviteten pr. ansat pr. kg efter 2001 kan i fuldt omfang tilskrives det faktum, at en fællesskabsproducents nye produktionsanlæg var i en etableringsfase.
The drop in productivity per worker on a per kg basis after 2001 can be exclusively attributed to the start-up phase of a new production plant of one Community producer.
