On December 8, 2014, a World Trade Organization (WTO) Appellate Panel (the Panel) overturned [3] the original panel’s decision, ruling that the U.S. had not acted in accordance with WTO law when imposing duties on Indian steel imports.  According to a news article [4], the WTO held that “the U.S. duties had wrongly penalized India for subsidizing steel exports by Tata Steel [and] the U.S. Department of Commerce had erred by saying [Indian state-run steel company] NMDC was a ‘public body’ under WTO rules.” The WTO also “asked the United States to bring [its duties on Indian steel] into line with its regulation.”  However, the Indian government still feels that “the findings help preserve the ability of the United States to address unfair subsidization by foreign governments.”
