Second, by means of the iron ore export tax and the dual freight policy, the Commission determined the existence of the legal acts inducing iron ore producers to sell domestically in India at lower prices than they would have sold otherwise.
See eristab käesolevat juhtumit selgelt varasematest juhtumitest, millele osutas ECL, kus komisjon kasutas võrdlusalusena samast ekspordiriigist pärit tooraine (peamiselt gaasi) ekspordihinda [64].
Then, the Commission established that the iron ore mining companies in India were indeed induced by the government to provide the iron ore to the ductile pipe industry for less than adequate remuneration.
28. jaanuaril 2016. aastal toimunud ärakuulamisel (vt põhjendus (6)) oli ka ärakuulamise eest vastutav ametnik seisukohal, et India ekspordimaks moonutab tõenäoliselt India ekspordi FOB-hindu, mistõttu ei saa neid kasutada usaldusväärse võrdlusalusena.
Furthermore, the function to provide iron ore for less than adequate remuneration is normally vested in the government and the practice of the mining companies to carry it out does not, in any real sense, differ from practices normally followed by governments.
Viimaks, ning kooskõlas alusmääruse artikli 6 punkti d teise lõigu punktiga ii, otsustas komisjon võtta abiks teise riigi turul valdavalt kehtivad tingimused, mis on subsiidiumi saajale kättesaadavad.
The Commission therefore did not only rely on several reports and policy statements or only on the effects of the identified measures but rather analysed all necessary elements in order to establish the existence of an indirect financial contribution in accordance with Article 3(1)(a)(iv) and (iii) of the basic Regulation.
Komisjon püüdis kindlaks teha rauamaagi moonutamata hinda teise tüüpilise riigi kaevanduses, ning simuleerida, nagu see kaevandus asuks Indias.
Benefit
Käesoleva juhtumiga seoses selgus, et enamus rauamaagist maailmas eksporditakse Austraaliast Hiinasse.
In accordance with Article 3(2) and Article 5 of the basic Regulation, the Commission calculated the amount of countervailable subsidies in terms of the benefit conferred on the recipient, which was found to exist during the review investigation period.
Seepärast otsustati vaadata, millised on hinnad Austraalia kaevandusest hankimise tasandil.
The Commission first calculated the weighted average purchase price of iron ore made by the two Indian producers during the IP.
Ent Austraalia kaevandusest hankimise tasandi hinnad ei olnud komisjonile kättesaadavad.
The weighted average was calculated month-by-month and as delivered from the mine to the plant in India.
Kuna India hind sisaldas transpordikulusid kaevandusest tehasesse, peeti kohaseks lisada ka kulud, mida tuleb tasuda transpordi eest Austraalia kaevandusest Austraalia rauamaagi ostjani, et võrdlus toimuks samal kaubandustasandil.
The average purchase price was based on the prices, net of VAT, and quantities indicated in transaction-by-transaction listing of invoices submitted by the companies and verified during the verification visits.
Võttes arvesse, et sellised andmed ei ole samuti kättesaadavad, kasutas komisjon selle asemel transpordikulusid Austraalia kaevandusest Austraalia mis tahes sadamasse.
When the Fe content of the iron ore purchased was different from 62 %, the purchase price was adjusted to take account of the quality (and price) difference.
Komisjon võrdsustas transpordikulu Austraalia kaevandusest sadamasse transpordikuluga Austraalia kaevandusest Austraalia rauamaagi ostjani järgmisel põhjusel.
This average price needed to be compared with an appropriate benchmark.
Samal ajal, kui üks konkreetne Austraalia kaevandus võib asuda lähemal ühele teatud kliendile kui lähimale sadamale, võib teine kaevandus asuda lähimale sadamale lähemal kui teatud kliendile.
Under Article 6(d) of the basic Regulation the adequacy of remuneration shall be determined in relation to prevailing market conditions for the product in question in the country of provision.
Seega on üleriigilisel tasandil mõistlik eeldada, et transpordikulud Austraalia kaevandusest Austraalia sadamasse peegeldavad asjakohaseid kliendile kättetoimetamiskulusid.
This mirrors Article 14(d) of the SCM Agreement and should be interpreted and applied in the light thereof.
Komisjon arvestas ka apellatsioonikogu otsust, et kohandused, mis tehakse transpordikulude suhtes, peavad peegeldama asjaomase kauba puhul üldiselt kehtivaid transpordikulusid pakkumise riigis [65].
The Commission noted that the prevailing market terms and conditions in India are all affected by the government's targeted export restraints.
Võttes arvesse fakte, et India varustab end enamalt jaolt ise rauamaagiga, ja et Indiasse ei ole rauamaaki olulisel määral imporditud, sest India tootjad ei vaja importi India liigse tootmisvõimsuse ja madalate hindade tõttu, ei olnud kohane lisada Austraalia sadama tasandi hinnale (FOB-tasandil) rahvusvahelise kaubaveo hinda.
No single transaction for iron ore in India escapes the fact that the entire Indian market is compartmentalised and low-priced.
Rahvusvahelise kaubaveo hinna lisamisel ei oleks saadud hind olnud tüüpiline rauamaagi üldiselt kehtivatele veohindadele Indias.
Hence, it was impossible to establish an undistorted cost of iron ore for an Indian ductile pipe producer or elsewhere in the Indian market.
Seetõttu võttis komisjon asendusena võrdlusaluseks FOB-hinna Austraalias, mis vastab tingimustele, mis oleksid olnud kättesaadavad India rauamaagi kasutajatele juhul, kui rauamaak oleks tarnitud India kaevandusest tehasesse suunatud ekspordipiirangute puudumise tingimustes.
Accordingly, there were no domestic prices in India which could be used as appropriate benchmark.
Täpsemalt kasutas komisjon Austraalia FOB-hinda, mis on avaldatud China Resources Quarterly Southern winter ~ Northern summer 2015. aasta väljaandes [66] 62 %-lise peene fraktsiooniga rauamaagi kohta (andmed on põhjenduses 211).
In line with Article 6(d) 2nd subparagraph (I) of the basic Regulation, the Commission then tried to adjust the terms and conditions prevailing in India, on the basis of actual costs, prices and other factors available in the country.
ECL esitas pärast avalikustamist vastuväite selle kohta, et komisjon kasutas Austraalia FOB-hindu ja nõudis selle asemel Brasiilia FOB-hindade kasutamist, kuna need olid Austraalia FOB-hindadest keskmiselt 10–15 % madalamad.
In other words, the Commission considered what would have been the price of iron ore in India absent the government's targeted export restraints.
Komisjon pidas Austraalia FOB-hindu sobivamaks võrdlusaluseks, kuna Austraalia eksport esindab ligikaudu 50 % maailma rauamaagi ekspordist, samal ajal kui Brasiilia osa rahvusvahelises eksportmüügis on ainult ligikaudu 26 %.
This methodology would have been able to capture the natural comparative advantage India may have in providing iron ore to its domestic producers, while eliminating the undue additional advantage received through the measures taken by the GoI.
Seepärast lükkas komisjon selle väite tagasi.
However, also this methodology did not produce an appropriate benchmark.
Seejärel võrdles komisjon hinda, mida India tootjad maksid rauamaagi eest (k.a India-sisesed transpordikulud) FOB-hinnaga Austraalias (mis sisaldab Austraalia-siseseid transpordikulusid).
In particular, it was impossible to calculate what the ‘normal’ cost for purchasing iron ore in India would have been absent the system of export restraints as such costs are determined by a series of other factors unknown to the Commission.
ECL nõudis pärast avalikustamist, et Austraalia FOB-hindu võrreldaks India kohandatud omamaiste hindadega FOB-tasandil.
While the Commission had facts at hand how production and demand developed with the targeted exports restraints in place since 2007/2008, it did not have any reliable source to model how offer and demand for iron ore in the Indian market in a given year would have developed in the absence thereof.
Kui komisjon võrdleb Austraalia FOB-hindu India omamaiste hindadega, peaks ta India hinnale lisama teel kaevandusest sadamasse ja sadamas tekkivad käitlus- ja laadimiskulud ning sadama stividorikulud.
Taking the costs of iron ore of any year prior to the establishment of the targeted export restraints (i.e. any year before 2007) would have led to arbitrary and unreliable decisions.
Lisaks tuleks Austraalia FOB-hindu vähendada niiskuse puudumise (2 % tükkides ja 8 % peene fraktsiooniga rauamaagis) ja käitluskulude (2 %) tõttu, mis on ekspordi puhul väidetavalt suuremad kui omamaiste hindade puhul.
Taking Indian costs from 2004 or 2005 as proxy for the costs during the IP was not considered appropriate as costs in a span of 10 years may differ significantly.
Kooskõlas oma põhjendustes (205)–(210)esitatud hinnanguga tunnistas komisjon, et kasu arvutamiseks tuleb teha täiendavaid kohandusi, et kohaldada India omamaiste hindade ja Austraalia FOB-hindade suhtes samasuguseid edasitoimetamiskulusid.
Accordingly, it was also impossible to calculate how the hypothetical costs in India for a ductile producer would have been absent the distortion.
Kuna stividorikulud sisaldavad ka rauamaagi mahalaadimise kulusid sadamas, otsustas komisjon jätta sellised käitlemiskulud India rauamaagi hinnast välja.
Accordingly, also adjusted terms and conditions in India could not be used as an appropriate benchmark.
Seejärel vähendati Austraalia FOB-hinda niiskuse puudumise tõttu.
After disclosure, ECL challenged the rejection by the Commission of the use of Indian domestic prices as a benchmark, arguing that it failed to analyse non-captive market suppliers, importance of traders or iron ore imports by individual producers such as ECL.
Komisjon kasutas alusena kogu „peene fraktsiooniga rauamaagi ja rauamaagitükkide korvi” suhtes kaalutud keskmist, mille ta arvutas eraldi iga eksportiva tootja kohta (mitte põhjenduses (207) esitatud kaalutud keskmist).
Furthermore, the Commission should adduce positive evidence that private prices are distorted.
Samadel põhjustel, millele on osutatud põhjendustes (208) ja (209), lahutas komisjon Austraalia ekspordi FOB-hindadest ka stividorikulud, kuid ei teinud kohandust käitlemiskulude osas.
The Commission was unable to determine how the behaviour of suppliers or traders would have been in the absence of the export tax and the dual freight policy.
Komisjon lükkas tagasi nõudmise kohandada India omamaiseid hindu FOB-tasandile, kuna see tähendaks, et rauamaaki ei toimetata eksportivate tootjate tehase väravani.
In addition, as illustrated in the section on provision of goods at less than adequate remuneration, the Commission presented a number of elements that all domestic prices in India have been distorted by the export tax.
Selleks et teha kindlaks tehasesse toimetatud rauamaagi hind, lisas komisjon (lisaks keskmisele veohinnale) summa, mis katab kaevanduse ja rongile/veoautole laadimise vahel tekkivad käitlus- ja laadimiskulud, mis põhinesid ühe eksportiva tootja esitatud kontrollitud kuluandmetel.
ECL further stated that the Commission should have adjusted the prevailing prices in India on the basis of FOB export prices from India.
Seega sai komisjon õiglaselt võrrelda India kaevandusest India tehasesse viidud (kuid mitte tehases maha laaditud) rauamaagi omamaist hinda ja Austraalia kaevandusest sadamasse viidud (kuid mitte sadamas maha laaditud) rauamaagi omamaist hinda.
As already stated above, export prices from India cannot be regarded as an appropriate benchmark, since Indian exporters need to incorporate in the prices they charge to their international customers the additional costs they incur for transport within India as well as the export tax charged at the border of India.
Pärast avalikustamist väitis Jindal, et komisjon ei oleks pidanud kasutama India keskmisi kaevandusest tehasesse transportimise kulusid, mis saadi ühelt eksportivalt tootjalt, vaid Jindali esitatud tegelikke kulusid.
This distinguishes significantly the case at hand to previous cases, to which ECL referred, where the Commission used as a benchmark the export price of a raw material (mainly gas) from the same country of export [64].
Komisjon arvas siiski, et ta peaks kasutama standardseid kaalutud keskmisi transpordikulusid kaevandusest tehasesse, et arvutada kasu mõlema eksportiva tootja puhul erapooletul ja mittediskrimineerival viisil.
At the hearing of 28 January 2016 (see recital 6 above) the Hearing Officer also took the view that the export tax in India is likely to distort the FOB export prices from India, which are hence unreliable to serve as a proper benchmark.
Kuna võrdlus tehakse väljastpoolt Indiat pärit võrdlushinna alusel, tekitaks mis tahes muu meetod äriühingute jaoks kunstliku eelise või kahju, sõltuvalt tegelikest logistikakuludest ja kaugusest eksportiva tootja ja kaevanduste vahel, kust ta rauamaaki ostis.
Finally, and in line with Article 6(d) 2nd subparagraph (ii) of the basic Regulation, the Commission thus reverted to the terms and conditions prevailing in the market of another country which are available for the recipient.
Edasi korrutas komisjon kahe asjaomase keskmise hinna vahe India tootjate poolt uurimisperioodil tegelikult ostetud rauamaagi kogustega.
The Commission tried to identify an undistorted price of iron ore produced in the mine of a representative other country and to simulate that such mine would actually be located in India.
ECL väitis pärast avalikustamist, et komisjon ei oleks pidanud kasutama kõiki tegelikult ostetud rauamaagi koguseid, vaid ainult seda osa, mida kasutati keragrafiitmalmist torude tootmiseks uurimisperioodil.
In the case at hand, it occurs that a majority of iron ore worldwide is exported from Australia to China.
Lisaks oleks tulnud kasutada nii peene fraktsiooniga rauamaagi ja rauamaagitükkide oste (mitte ainult peene fraktsiooniga rauamaagi oste).
It was thus decided to look at the ex-mine prices in Australia.
Komisjon nõustus selle väitega ja teavitas mõlemat eksportivat tootjat tehtud muudatustest.
However, such ex-mine prices in Australia were not available for the Commission.
Lisaks väitis ECL, et mõnede kontserni äriühingute kasu arvutamisel kasutati ainult peene fraktsiooniga rauamaagi oste.
Moreover, as the Indian price includes transport costs from the mine to the factory, it was considered appropriate to include also the transport costs that would be payable from the Australian mine to an Australian buyer of iron ore so that the comparison is made at the same level of trade.
Kui rauamaagi rauasisaldus oli muu kui 62 %, kohandas komisjon ostuhinda proportsionaalselt.
Given that such data is neither available, the Commission used transport costs from the Australian mine to any Australian port instead.
Kahte eksportivat tootjat teavitati vastavalt tehtud parandustest.
The Commission equated the transport cost from an Australian mine to the port with the transport cost from an Australian mine to an Australian buyer of iron ore for the following reason.
Saadud vahe kogusumma kujutab endast „säästu”, mille said India tootjad, kes ostavad rauamaaki India moonutatud turult, võrreldes hinnaga, mida nad oleksid pidanud maksma moonutuste puudumisel.
The Commission was also mindful of the Appellate Body's ruling that adjustments for delivery charges must reflect the generally applicable delivery charges for the good in question in the country of provision.
Pärast avalikustamist väitis Jindal, et komisjon on mõnede kuude kohta uurimisperioodil arvutanud negatiivse kasu.
Given the factual background that India is largely self-sufficient in iron ore and that there were no significant imports of iron ore to India as Indian producers do not need any imports due to overcapacity in India and low prices, it was hence not appropriate to add the international freight costs to the Australian ex-port price (at FOB level).
Seega ei pakutud äriühingule rauamaaki tegelikust maksumusest väiksema tasu eest.
Adding international delivery charges would thus not have been representative of the generally applicable delivery charges for iron ore in India.
Lisaks väitis Jindal, et ta ei saanud subsiidiumi pärast uurimisperioodi, kuna ta ei importinud, ning seega ei ole tema puhul subsiidium tasakaalustatav.
The Commission hence used as a benchmark a proxy FOB price in Australia which reflects the terms and conditions that would have been available to Indian iron ore users, as if the iron ore would have been delivered from an India mine to a factory absent the targeted export restraints.
ECL väitis samuti, et ajavahemikul 2014–2015 ei olnud India omamaised hinnad enam Austraalia FOB-hindadest madalamad.
More specifically, the Commission used the Australian FOB price published by the China Resources Quarterly Southern winter ~ Northern summer 2015 publication [66] for 62 % iron ore (information found in the table of recital 211 above).
Komisjon ei saa seda fakti vaidlustada, kuna ta peab arvestama meetmete kehtestamise ajal valitsenud olukorda.
After disclosure, ECL challenged the use by the Commission of Australian FOB prices and requested that it uses Brazilian FOB prices instead as they were on average 10 %-15 % lower than Australian FOB prices.
Komisjon tunnistas, et uurimisperioodi mõne kuu puhul arvutatud kasu oli negatiivne.
The Commission considered that Australian FOB prices are a more appropriate benchmark since Australia represents approximately 50 % of the world's exports of iron ore, while Brazil's share in international export sales is around only 26 %.
Selle korvab siiski ülejäänud uurimisperioodi jooksul saadud positiivne kasu, nii et lõpptulemusena tehti asjaomase äriühingu puhul kindlaks positiivne subsiidiumimarginaal.
Therefore, it rejected this claim.
Alusmääruse artikli 15 lõike 1 teise lõigu kohaselt ei saa komisjon tasakaalustusmeetmeid kehtestada kahel tingimusel: i) kui subsiidium või subsiidiumid tühistatakse või ii) tõestatakse, et subsiidiumid ei anna enam asjaomastele eksportijatele kasu.
The Commission then compared the price paid by the Indian producers to purchase iron ore (including intra-Indian transports costs) with this FOB price in Australia (which includes intra-Australian transport costs).
Esimese tingimuse osas märkis komisjon, et ekspordipiirangute süsteemi ei ole tühistatud.
After disclosure, ECL requested that Australian FOB prices should be compared with the adjusted domestic Indian prices to a FOB level.
Seega ei ole see tingimus täidetud.
Alternatively, if the Commission compares Australian FOB prices with domestic Indian prices, it should add handling and loading costs on the Indian price from the mine to port and at the port, as well as stevedoring costs at the port.
Teise tingimuse osas tuleb meenutada, et selle põhieesmärk on, et seda kohaldatakse ühekordsete, mittekorduvate subsiidiumide suhtes, mida antakse kindla ajavahemiku jooksul ning millest ei saa tulevikus kasu ükski eksportiv tootja [67].
In addition, Australian FOB prices should be adjusted downwards for absence of moisture (2 % for lumps and 8 % for fines) and handling loss (2 %) which is higher for export than in the case of domestic prices.
Praegusel juhul ei ole sellise olukorraga tegemist järgmistel põhjustel.
In line with its assessment in recitals 205-210 above, the Commission acknowledged that also for the purposes of the calculation of benefit, some further adjustments were necessary in order to apply the same types of delivery charges both on the Indian domestic prices and the Australian FOB prices.
Pärast uurimisperioodi on võrdlusalusena kasutatavad Austraalia FOB-hinnad, kohandatuna sividorikulude ja niiskuse osas, sarnased India omamaiste hindadega.
However, as stevedoring costs also include the costs for unloading the iron ore to the port in the first place, the Commission decided to also eliminate such handling costs from the Indian price of iron ore.
Komisjon tegi eespool põhjenduses (212) siiski kindlaks, et India rauamaagi omamaised hinnad püsivad pigem muutusteta ega järgi mujal maailmas toimuvaid hinnakõikumisi.
Consequently, the Australian FOB price was adjusted downwards for absence of moisture.
Samal ajal ei ole välistatud, et rahvusvahelised hinnad, sh Austraalia FOB-hinnad, lähitulevikus jälle tõusevad vastusena rauamaagi rahvusvahelise nõudluse ja pakkumise kõikumisele.
The Commission used a weighted average basis for the complete ‘basket of fines and lumps’ which it calculated individually for each of the two exporting producers (and not on a weighted average basis as was the case in recital 207 above).
Seega ei saa järeldada, et ekspordipiirangute süsteem on ühekordne mittekorduv subsiidium, kuna on tõenäoline, et sellest saadakse kasu ka tulevikus.
For the same reasons as stated in recitals 208-209 above, the Commission also deducted stevedoring costs from the Australian FOB prices, but did not make an adjustment for handling loss.
Kui rahvusvaheline hind püsib tulevikus pidevalt India omamaistest hindadest madalamal tasemel, on igal eksportival tootjal õigus taotleda kogutud tollimaksude tagastamist, kui kooskõlas alusmääruse artikliga 21 on näidatud, et tasakaalustatavate subsiidiumide summa on kas kaotatud või on seda vähendatud.
Concerning the Indian domestic price, the Commission dismissed the request to adjust domestic Indian prices to a FOB level since this implies that the iron ore will not be delivered at the factory gate of the exporting producers.
Eespool esitatut arvesse võttes ei ole alusmääruse artikli 15 lõike 1 teise lõigu tingimused tasakaalustusmeetmete mittevõtmise kohta täidetud.
Thus in order to establish a price of iron ore as delivered to the factory gate, the Commission also added — in addition to average transport costs — an amount to cover handling and loading between the mine head and the train/truck based on verified enumerated cost data from one of the exporting producers.
Uurimisperioodil oli asjaomase kavaga seotud subsiidiumimäär ECL kontserni puhul 3,01 % ja äriühingu Jindal Saw India puhul 3,91 %.
On this basis, the Commission made a fair comparison between Indian domestic prices of iron ore brought from an Indian mine to a factory in India (but not unloaded in the factory) and Australian domestic prices of iron ore brought from a mine to a port (but not unloaded in the port).
Konkreetsus
After disclosure, Jindal claimed that the Commission should not have used average Indian transport costs from the mine to the plant obtained from one of the exporting producers but the actual costs reported by Jindal.
India valitsuse sekkumine toob kasu ainult raua- ja terasetootmisharule.
However, the Commission considered that it should use a standard weighted average transport cost from the mine to the plant in order to calculate the benefit in unbiased and non-discriminatory way for both exporting producers.
Seetõttu on nad alusmääruse artikli 4 lõike 2 punkti a kohaselt konkreetselt määratletud.
In the context of comparison with a benchmark price outside India, any other method would lead to an artificial advantage or disadvantage for the companies, depending on the actual logistical costs and geographical distance between the exporting producer and the mines it has purchased from.
Vaatamata asjaolule, et sekkumisest saavad kasu ka teiste järgmise etapi toodete tootjad peale keragrafiitmalmist torude tootjate, on see soodustus siiski kättesaadav vaid teatavatele India tootmisharudele.
The Commission further multiplied the difference between the two average prices by the quantities of iron ore actually purchased by the Indian producers during the IP.
Rauamaagi loomulikud omadused piiravad võimalike subsiidiumist kasusaajate ringi teatava tootmisharuga, ent see ei tähenda, et konkreetsena määratlemiseks peaks subsiidiumist kasusaajate ring olema asjaomase tootmisharu sees veel täiendavalt täpsustatud [68].
After disclosure, ECL claimed that the Commission should not have used all the quantities of iron ore actually purchased, but only that part which was consumed for the production of ductile pipes during the IP.
ECL ja Jindal vaidlustasid pärast avalikustamist komisjoni hinnangu konkreetsuse kohta, väites, et see oli ebapiisav ja õiguslikult ebakorrektne.
