      The para 63 (viii) of the finding is corrected to read as under:
      Price Undercutting: It can be seen that without the inclusion of safeguard duty, the prices of imports continue to undercut the selling price of the Domestic Industry and cause serious injury to it.

          Some interested parties have raised an objection with respect to the price undercutting analysis stating that the price undercutting should be analyzed after addition of safeguard duty into the landed value of the PUC. In this regard, it is noted that this being a review to examine the extension of safeguard duty to prevent recurrence of injury the impact of imports without Safeguard Duty needs to be evaluated.
