HC allows writ petition challenging anti-dumping investigation, directing exclusion of specialty grade SPVC Resins from Product Under Consideration (PUC). The court found procedural lapses by Designated Authority in determining "like article" and product scope, specifically noting the imported specialty grade SPVC Resins used for manufacturing CPVC pipes for potable water are technically distinct from domestically produced grades. The preliminary findings were deemed unsustainable as the authority failed to conduct adequate classificatory investigation and improperly expanded investigation scope post-initiation. Consequently, the authority must exclude specialty grade SPVC Resins from further anti-dumping investigation proceedings.
