While it is true that the EU competition rules impose more stringent standards of behaviour on a company that has a significant market share it is ultimately up to the competition authorities to determine whether there is a dominant position and whether it is abused.
Tootmisharu esimese ja teise põhjuse osas, mis on omavahel seotud, tuleb märkida, et India ekspordihinna mis tahes langus pärast uurimisperioodi ei viinud tingimata subsideerimise suurenemiseni.
The competition authorities proceed first by examining the relevant product and geographic market.
Seda, mil määral ei oleks väärtuseline tollimaks tõhus uurimisperioodi järgse subsideerimise taseme tasakaalustamiseks, tuleks vajaduse korral uurida vahepealse läbivaatamise käigus, milleks liidu tootmisharu peab esitama alusmääruse artikli 19 kohase taotluse.
For example in the case regarding HDPE and MDPE pipes for sewage, it was not excluded that they competed with ductile iron pipes and steel pipes, though ultimately the product market definition was left open [78].
Kolmanda punkti osas tuleb märkida, et tootmisharu tunnistas ise, et keragrafiitmalmist torude tootmiseks vajaliku peamise tooraine – rauamaagi – hinnad on alates 2014. aastast langenud.
In the present case, the Commission was unable to define the relevant product and geographic market absent any formal competition complaint brought before it.
Rauamaagi hinna vähenemine on tõenäoliselt mõjutanud keragrafiitmalmist torude hindade langust pärast uurimisperioodi lõppu.
Exclusive distribution agreements offering more advantageous conditions or even stricter vertical restraints in the distribution of goods are not illegal per se [79] and it is ultimately up to a competition authority to conduct an assessment if such restraints are anti-competitive or even abusive.
Selline hinnalangus ei tähenda siiski automaatselt subsideerimise taseme suurenemist.
As regards the price quotes allegedly pointing to price increases by SG PAM, the Commission found them hard to compare without any more in-depth investigation about the precise offers and circumstances involved.
Asjaolu, et keragrafiitmalmist torude hind võib kõikuda vastavalt toorainehinna kõikumisele, ei ole põhjus kehtestada väärtuselise tollimaksu asemel kindlasummalist tollimaksu.
In addition, the Commission received only one piece of evidence of alleged price increases, which in itself cannot prove that they have been wide-spread.
Kõiki eespool nimetatud põhjuseid arvesse võttes ollakse seisukohal, et kindlasummalise tollimaksu kehtestamine, mis oleks importijatele liigselt koormav olukorras, kus ekspordihinnad langevad kooskõlas toorainehindadega, ei ole põhjendatud.
In anti-subsidy proceedings the Commission examines competition concerns to establish whether, on balance, it would be clearly against the Union interest to impose countervailing measures.
Kindlasummaline tollimaks on sobivam homogeensete toodete ja mitte vaatlusaluse toote puhul, mis jaguneb mitmeks tooteliigiks.
Such an analysis cannot encompass a competition assessment in the strict legal sense, which can only be carried out by a competent competition authority.
Kohustuse pakkumine
In any case, no robust evidence was provided that would suggest that the complainant would engage in anti-competitive behaviour should countervailing measures be imposed other than the fact that it has a strong position already on the market.
ECL esitas kaubandusmenetluses ärakuulamise eest vastutava ametniku juures toimunud ärakuulamisel (vt põhjendus 5) ja hiljem kirjalikult kohustuse pakkumise, et tema suhtes kohaldataks madalamat FPS-määra 2 %, kuid automaatselt kõrgemat tollimaksu ilma läbivaatamiseta, kui uuesti võetaks kasutusele 5 % määr.
No decision from a competition authority was provided where the complainant was found to engage in anti-competitive behaviour for the product concerned.
Alusmääruse artikli 13 kohaselt koosneb kohustuse pakkumine kas päritoluriigi kohustusest lõpetada subsiidium või võtta teisi meetmeid selle mõju suhtes, või eksportija kohustusest korrigeerida oma hindu.
No court ruling was provided where the complainant was found to manipulate tenders.
Eksportija pakkumine ei sisaldanud hinnakohustust.
It is recalled that the purpose of imposing countervailing measures is to restore a level playing field where Union producers and third country producers compete on fair conditions and not to force exporting producers out of the market.
Kohustus on igal juhul samaväärne meede kui see, mis määrati kindlaks uurimise tulemuste põhjal.
Accordingly, under Union rules duties would only be set at a level that would still enable the Indian exporters to continue competing with the Union producers, but at fair prices.
Komisjon lükkas seepärast kohustuse pakkumise tagasi.
Indeed, the combined anti-dumping and countervailing measures are set at the dumping and subsidisation level below the level of undercutting.
Peale selle võivad ka importijad nõuda asjaomase kava alusel antud subsiidiumi täpse summa ulatuses tagasimakset.
Moreover, there are several producers located in third countries (China, Turkey, Russia, and Switzerland) who are already selling to the Union market.
Seetõttu kehtestati tasakaalustavad tollimaksu määrad kahju- ja subsiidiumimarginaalide võrdluse põhjal.
Their sales volumes during the period considered were low and declining.
Kavandatavad tasakaalustavate tollimaksude määrad on järgmised.
However, one of the causes of such a decline in other importers sales appears to have been an aggressive competition from the Indian producers.
Subsiidiumimarginaalid
The Indian subsidised prices were well below the prices of all other major importing countries (with the exception of Russia).
Kahjumarginaalid
The users confirmed that in case the Union industry unilaterally increases prices, the imports from other countries may increase rather in the medium term, once such exporters from third-countries will have received additional certifications required by the Member States.
Tasakaalustava tollimaksu määr
The users also confirmed that the Swiss company, although it is present on the Union market, manufactures more sophisticated, high-value added pipes that are not readily substitutable with the Indian products.
Kõik muud äriühingud

Käesoleva määrusega äriühingutele kehtestatavad individuaalsed tasakaalustavad tollimaksu määrad määrati kindlaks käesoleva uurimise järelduste põhjal.

Seepärast kajastavad need asjaomaste äriühingute olukorda, mis tehti kindlaks kõnealuse uurimise ajal.
Russia
Kõnealuseid tollimaksu määrasid (erinevalt üleriigilisest tollimaksust, mida kohaldatakse kõikide muude äriühingute suhtes) kohaldatakse eranditult selliste toodete impordi puhul, mis on pärit Indiast ning mille on tootnud nimetatud konkreetsed juriidilised isikud.
Turkey
Imporditavate toodete suhtes, mille tootjaks on mõni teine äriühing, keda ei ole käesoleva määruse regulatiivosas konkreetselt nimetatud, sealhulgas konkreetselt nimetatud äriühingutega seotud isikud, ei tohi nimetatud määrasid kohaldada ning nende puhul kehtib „kõikide muude äriühingute” suhtes kohaldatav tollimaksu määr.
Conclusion on Union interest
Kõik taotlused äriühingu suhtes individuaalse tasakaalustava tollimaksumäära kohaldamise kohta (nt pärast üksuse nimemuudatust või uue tootmis- või müügiüksuse asutamist) tuleb saata komisjonile [80] koos kogu asjakohase teabega, eriti mis puudutab mis tahes tootmisega seotud muudatust äriühingu tegevuses, omamaist ja eksportmüüki, mis on seotud näiteks kõnealuse nimemuudatusega või kõnealuse muutustega tootmis- ja müügiüksustes.
The Commission was therefore satisfied that in the weighing and balancing of interests, the protection of the Union industry against injurious subsidisation must be given priority over the interests of users to avoid potential negative effects on competition on the Union market.
Vajaduse korral muudetakse vastavalt käesolevat määrust, ajakohastades nende äriühingute loetelu, kelle suhtes kohaldatakse individuaalseid tollimaksumäärasid.
While there is a fear that countervailing duties may reinforce an already strong position of the leading Union producer, a number of mitigating factors, such as continuing competition from Indian, other exporters and substitute products, ensures that a sufficient competitive pressure is maintained on the Union industry to avoid potential negative effects on competition on the Union market.
Selleks, et vähendada meetmetest kõrvalehoidmise ohtu, peetakse vajalikuks kehtestada erimeetmed, et tagada tasakaalustusmeetmete nõuetekohane kohaldamine.
Finally, the Commission is ready to monitor the effect of its measures on competition on the Union market.
Erimeetmete hulka kuuluvad järgmised meetmed: käesoleva määruse artikli 1 lõikes 3 sätestatud nõuetele vastava kehtiva faktuurarve esitamine liikmesriikide tollile.
DEFINITIVE COUNTERVAILING MEASURES
Sellise arve puudumise korral kohaldatakse kõigi muude äriühingute suhtes kohaldatavat tollimaksu.
On the basis of the conclusions reached by the Commission on subsidisation, injury, causation and Union interest, and in accordance with Article 15(1) of the basic Regulation, a definitive countervailing duty should be imposed on imports of tubes and pipes of ductile cast iron (also known as spheroidal graphite cast iron) originating in India.
Et tagada subsiidiumidevastase tollimaksu nõuetekohane jõustamine, tuleks jääktollimaksu määra kohaldada mitte üksnes koostööst keeldunud eksportivate tootjate suhtes, vaid ka nende tootjate suhtes, kes uurimisperioodil Euroopa Liitu ei eksportinud.
Injury elimination level
Määruse (EÜ) nr 1225/2009 artikli 15 lõike 1 kohaselt loodud komitee ei ole oma arvamust esitanud,
For the purpose of determining the level of these measures, account was taken of the subsidy margins found and the amount of duty necessary to eliminate the injury suffered by the Union industry.
ON VASTU VÕTNUD KÄESOLEVA MÄÄRUSE:
When calculating the amount of duty necessary to remove the effects of the injurious subsidisation, it was considered that any measure should allow the Union industry to cover its costs of production and obtain a profit before tax that could be reasonably achieved by an industry of this type in the sector under normal conditions of competition, i.e. in the absence of subsidised imports, on sales of the like product in the Union.
Artikkel 1
Therefore, the injury elimination level was calculated on the basis of a comparison of the weighted average price of the subsidised imports, as established for the price undercutting calculations in recital 301 above, and the non-injurious price of the Union industry for the like product.
Kehtestatakse lõplik tasakaalustav tollimaks Indiast pärit keragrafiitmalmist (kõrgtugevast malmist) torude impordile, välja arvatud keragrafiitmalmist torud, millel puudub sisemine ja väline kattekiht („katmata torud”), mis praegu kuuluvad CN-koodide ex73030010 ja ex73030090 (TARICi koodid 7303001010, 7303009010) alla.
The non-injurious price was established by adding to the cost of production a reasonable profit level.
Lõpliku tasakaalustava tollimaksu määr, mida kohaldatakse allpool loetletud äriühingute valmistatud ning lõikes 1 kirjeldatud toodete vaba netohinna suhtes liidu piiril enne tollimaksu sissenõudmist, on järgmine.
The target profit margin was set at 5 % as stated in recital 327.
Lõpliku tasakaalustava tollimaksu määr (%)
Any difference resulting from this comparison was then expressed as a percentage of the average total CIF import price.
TARICi lisakood
Following disclosure Jindal claimed that rather than adding SG&A and profit to the cost of production to establish a non-injurious price for the Union industry, the non-injurious price should be adjusted downwards due to structural overcapacity and inefficiencies of the Union industry.
Lõikes 2 nimetatud äriühingute suhtes kindlaks määratud individuaalseid tasakaalustava tollimaksu määrasid kohaldatakse tingimusel, et liikmesriikide tollile esitatakse kehtiv faktuurarve, millele peab olema lisatud kuupäeva ja faktuurarve väljastanud üksuse töötaja allkirjaga (märgitud peab olema töötaja nimi ja amet) deklaratsioon järgmise tekstiga: „Mina, allakirjutanu, kinnitan, et käesoleva arvega hõlmatud, otseekspordiks Euroopa Liitu müüdavad keragrafiitmalmist (kõrgtugevast malmist) torud koguses (kogus) on toodetud (äriühingu nimi ja aadress) poolt (TARICi lisakood) Indias.
The Commission did not consider that there was a structural overcapacity as mentioned in recital 351 and therefore rejected this claim.
Kinnitan, et käesolevas arves esitatud teave on täielik ja täpne.”
Following disclosure both exporting producers claimed that the methodology used for calculating the injury elimination level was flawed as the comparison with Union sales prices is not based on the actual price charged to the first independent customer in the Union but on a constructed export price which is artificially low.
Kui sellist arvet ei esitata, kohaldatakse „kõikide muude äriühingute” suhtes kohaldatavat tollimaksumäära.
The injury margins are therefore artificially high.
Kui ei ole sätestatud teisiti, kohaldatakse kehtivaid tollimaksusätteid.
The purpose of calculating an injury margin is to determine whether applying to the export price of the subsidised imports a lower duty rate than the one based on the subsidy margin would be sufficient to remove the injury caused by the subsidised imports.
Artikkel 2
This assessment is based on the export price at the Union frontier level which is considered to be a level comparable to the Union industry ex-works price.
Käesolev määrus jõustub järgmisel päeval pärast selle avaldamist Euroopa Liidu Teatajas.
In case of export sales via related importers, by analogy with the approach followed for the dumping margin calculations, the export price is constructed on the basis of the resale price to the first independent customer.
Käesolev määrus on tervikuna siduv ja aluslepingute kohaselt liikmesriikides vahetult kohaldatav.
Otherwise, there would be two different results in assessing the same injury margin situation under the two instruments.
Brüssel, 17. märts 2016
Therefore, the Commission considered that the methodology applied provides for an accurate basis for comparing prices and thus establishing the injury elimination level.
Komisjoni nimel
This claim is therefore rejected and the methodology for determining the injury elimination level is confirmed.

Definitive measures
ELT L 188, 18.7.2009, lk 93.
In view of the findings above, a definitive countervailing duty should be imposed at a level sufficient to eliminate the injury caused by the subsidised imports without exceeding the subsidy margin found.
ELT C 83, 11.3.2015, lk 4.
Following disclosure, the Union industry requested the imposition of measures in the form of specific duties rather than ad valorem duties.
ELT C 461, 20.12.2014, lk 35.
It is recalled that ad valorem anti-dumping duties were imposed at provisional stage.
Nõukogu 30. novembri 2009. aasta määrus (EÜ) nr 1225/2009 kaitse kohta dumpinguhinnaga impordi eest riikidest, mis ei ole Euroopa Ühenduse liikmed (ELT L 343, 22.12.2009, lk 51).
Indeed, ad valorem duties are the usual preferred form of measures as they render the measures more effective in the event of export price movements.
Komisjoni 18. septembri 2015. aasta rakendusmäärus (EL) 2015/1559, millega kehtestatakse ajutine dumpinguvastane tollimaks Indiast pärit keragrafiitmalmist (kõrgtugevast malmist) torude impordi suhtes (ELT L 244, 19.9.2015, lk 25).
The Union industry requested the imposition of measures in the form of specific duties for three main reasons:
Komisjoni 17. märtsi 2016. aasta rakendusmäärus (EL) 2016/388, millega kehtestatakse lõplik dumpinguvastane tollimaks Indiast pärit keragrafiitmalmist (kõrgtugevast malmist) torude impordi suhtes (vt käesoleva Euroopa Liidu Teataja lk 53).
The Indian export prices of ductile iron pipes have been following a decreasing trend, which has exacerbated since the imposition of provisional anti-dumping duties;
Nõukogu 11. augusti 2000, aasta määrus (EÜ) nr 1784/2000 teatavate Brasiiliast, Tšehhi Vabariigist, Jaapanist, Hiina Rahvavabariigist, Korea Vabariigist ja Taist pärinevate tempermalmist toruliitmike impordi suhtes lõpliku dumpinguvastase tollimaksu kehtestamise ning ajutise tollimaksu sissenõudmise kohta (EÜT L 208, 18.8.2000, lk 10).
Absorption practices by the Indian exporting producers have already started since the imposition of provisional anti-dumping measures and arrangements between related companies are highly likely in this case.
India valitsuse vastus subsiidiumivastasele küsimustikule, 15. mai 2015, lk 24.
The prices of ductile iron pipes can fluctuate in line with raw material price fluctuations
EÜT C 394, 17.12.1998, lk 6.
In regard to the industry's first and second reasons above which are somewhat linked, any decrease in Indian export prices after the investigation period may not necessarily have led to an increase in subsidisation.
Üldkohus, kohtuasi T-462/04, 2008 EKL II-3685, punkt 67.
The extent to which an ad valorem duty would not be effective in counteracting the level of subsidisation taking place after the investigation period should, if appropriate, be subject to an interim review request by the Union industry under Article 19 of the basic Regulation.
Üldkohus, kohtuasi T-462/04, 2008 EKL II-3685, punktid 68–74.
In regard to the third point, the industry itself acknowledged that prices of the main raw material for producing ductile pipes, iron ore, have decreased since 2014.
Uue korra lõige 3.13 sätestab: „…valitsus jätab endale õiguse kehtestada piirang/muuta määra/tollimaksusoodustuse piirmäära käesoleva peatüki alusel…”.
Indeed, the fall in iron ore prices is likely to be a factor in the decrease in ductile pipe prices since the end of the investigation period.
India väliskaubanduse peadirektoraadi avalik teadaanne nr 42(RE2012)/2009-14.
However, such a decrease in prices does not automatically lead to an increase in the level of subsidisation.
Vt komisjoni 9. veebruari 2012. aasta määrus (EL) nr 115/2012, millega kehtestatakse teatavate Indiast pärit roostevabast terasest kinnitusdetailide ja nende osade impordi suhtes ajutine tasakaalustav tollimaks (ELT L 38, 11.2.2012, lk 6), põhjendus 64.
The fact that prices of ductile iron pipes price can fluctuate in line with raw material price fluctuations is not a reason to impose a fixed duty instead of an ad valorem duty.
Vaekogu aruanne, DS 194, lisa B-3, punkt 4.
For all the above reasons, it is considered that a fixed duty, which would be excessively burdensome on importers in situations where export prices were decreasing in line with raw material prices, is not warranted.
Vaekogu 29. juuni 2001. aasta aruanne DS194 „United States – Measures treating export restraints as subsidies”, punkt 8.29.
Furthermore, fixed duties are more appropriate for homogenous products, and not for products like the present one, which come in a variety of product types.
Vaekogu aruanne, DS 194, punkt 8.44.
Undertaking Offer
Apellatsioonikogu 21. veebruari 2005. aasta aruanne DS296 „United States – Countervailing duty investigation on Dynamic Random Access Memory (DRAMS) from Korea”, punktid 110–111.
In the hearing with the Hearing Officer (see recital 5 above) and subsequently in writing, ECL proposed an undertaking in order to be subject to the lower FPS rate of 2 % but to automatically accept a higher duty without review if the 5 % rate would be reinstated.
Apellatsioonikogu aruanne DS 296, punkt 116.
According to Article 13 of the basic Regulation, an undertaking offer consists either of a commitment on the part of the country of origin to eliminate the subsidy or take other measures concerning its effects or a commitment of the exporter to revise its prices.
Apellatsioonikogu aruanne DS 296, punkt 116.
The submission made by the exporter did not contain any price commitment.
Apellatsioonikogu aruanne DS 296, punkt 115.
In any case, an undertaking is an equivalent form of measures as determined on the basis of the investigation findings.
Apellatsioonikogu aruanne DS 296, punkt 114, milles nõustutakse vaekogu aruande DS 194 punktiga 8.31 selles küsimuses.
The Commission therefore rejected the offer for undertaking.
Vaekogu aruanne, DS 194, punkt 8.25.
Furthermore, importers can also request a refund for the precise amount granted through this scheme.
