  "summary": "The National Tariff Commission (NTC) has imposed a provisional anti-dumping duty of 9.03 percent on imports of pharmaceutical packaging material, Alu Alu Foil, originating in or exported from China for four months. The duty applies to Cold Forming Foil and Tropical Foil classified under Pakistan Customs Tariff (PCT) codes 7607.1990 and 7607.2000. The commission initiated the investigation following an application filed by Zenith Packages Industries (Pvt.) Limited, Lahore, under the Anti-Dumping Duties Act, 2015. The provisional duty is intended to prevent further material injury to the domestic industry during the investigation, and will remain in force until further notice.",
