Only the margin calculation for the review average rate changed from results of the preliminary determinations in this review.

New Cash Deposit Rates Take Effect Sept. 1

For entries on or after Sept. 1, the date these final results are set to be published in the Federal Register, Commerce is setting new AD duty cash deposit rates for some companies, as follows:

ExporterAD Rate
Megaa Moda Pvt. Ltd.7.92%
NK Marine Exports LLP1.43%
Review Average Rate (applicable to 185 companies)3.88%

Average Rate. Commerce is not individually investigating 185 companies subject to this review and instead assigned them the average of the rates assigned to the individually investigated companies, Megaa Moda Pvt Ltd. and NK Marine Exports LLP. See Appendix II in Commerce's notice for a full list of these 185 companies.

For exporters of subject merchandise that were not under review (i.e., all except the 187 companies listed), cash deposit rates remain at the level set in the most recent review of each respective company. If the exporter has never been assigned its own AD rate but the manufacturer has, the rate assigned to the manufacturer applies. For merchandise manufactured and exported by companies that have never been assigned a cash deposit rate by Commerce, the all-others rate applies, i.e., 10.17%.

Assessment Rates for Entries February 2021 - January 2022

Commerce is using the rates it calculated in these final results to calculate assessments of AD duties on importers of subject merchandise for entries between Feb. 1, 2021, and Jan. 31, 2022. Commerce will liquidate entries from Megaa Moda and NK Marine at importer-specific AD rates. Commerce will assess AD at the rates listed above for the other companies subject to this review.

(The review period is 02/01/21 - 01/31/22. See Commerce's notice for more information, including the scope of the order, detailed cash deposit and assessment instructions, etc. See 2303020082 for summary of the preliminary results of this administrative review.)
