Dumping is said to occur when the goods are exported by a country to another country at a price lower than its normal value. In the EU this is considered as an unfair trade practice which can have a distortive effect on international trade. When the EU is alerted it investigates and if it does find evidence of distortion it introduces anit-dumping proceedings.
Anti dumping is a measure to rectify the situation arising out of the
dumping of goods and its trade distortive effect.
