Introduction:** This report provides an overview and analysis of the corrigendum G.S.R. 409(E), issued on June 1, 2022, relating to Notification No. 17/2022-Customs (ADD). The analysis is based solely on the provided text of the corrigendum. **3. Policy Overview:** * **Type:** Amendment (Corrigendum) * **Original Policy:** Notification No. 17/2022-Customs (ADD), dated May 31, 2022, G.S.R. 406(E). * **Core Objective(s):** The objective of the original policy (Notification No. 17/2022-Customs (ADD)) cannot be determined from the provided text of the corrigendum. However, based on the "CustomsADD" designation, it likely pertains to the imposition or modification of Anti-Dumping Duties (ADD) on specific imported goods. The objective of the corrigendum itself is simply to correct an error. **4. Background and Rationale:** The corrigendum addresses a typographical error in the original notification. The rationale is to maintain the accuracy and integrity of official government publications and to avoid potential confusion or misinterpretations arising from the error. The specific amendment corrects the number "17" to "18" on page 2, line 20 of the original notification. This suggests that either the number was wrong, or it was referencing something else (e.g. a part of a policy). **5. Key Provisions / Changes:** * **Specific Part of Original Policy Changed:** Page 2, line 20 of Notification No. 17/2022-Customs (ADD), G.S.R. 406(E). * **New Rule/Provision:** The number "17" is replaced with "18". * **Difference/Effect of the Change:** The effect of this change is to correct a likely error in the original notification. Without the original notification for comparison, it is impossible to determine the impact of this single-digit change. The assumption is that it likely refers to a specific section, paragraph, or another identifiable element within the original notification. Correcting this will ensure correct interpretation of that element. **6. Target Audience and Stakeholders:** The primary target audience and stakeholders for this corrigendum are likely: * Customs officials responsible for implementing Notification No. 17/2022-Customs (ADD). * Importers and exporters affected by the Anti-Dumping Duties detailed in the original notification. * Legal professionals and consultants advising on customs-related matters. **7.

Expected Outcomes / Impact of Changes:** The intended outcome of this amendment is to eliminate any potential ambiguity or misinterpretation arising from the typographical error. The potential impact of the amendment is positive, as it ensures accurate application of the original notification's provisions. However, the actual impact is expected to be minimal given the typographical nature of the error. **9.
