Commerce has ordered liquidation “as entered” at the cash deposit rate in effect at the time of entry for subject merchandise from exporters for which a review was not requested (ADCVDWeb Message # 3017402).
In these preliminary results, Commerce is also rescinding this review for one company, R.N. Gupta & Company Limited, because the request for review was withdrawn. Entries from this company also will liquidate as entered.
Cash Deposit Requirements
Once Commerce issues its final results, new AD duty cash deposit requirements may take effect for some companies, beginning on the date of publication of the final results in the Federal Register. Commerce preliminarily calculated the following AD duty cash deposit rates:
| Exporter | AD Rate (Prelim) |
|---|---|
| Chandan Steel Limited | zero |
| Kisaan Die Tech Private Limited | zero |
| Review Average Rate (applicable to 12 companies) | zero |
Average rate. Commerce is not individually investigating 12 companies subject to this review: Balkrishna Steel Forge Pvt.

Assessment Rates
As part of this administrative review, Commerce also will calculate the AD duties it will assess on importers for entries of subject merchandise entered Oct. 1, 2021, through Sept. 30, 2022. If these preliminary results are confirmed in the final results, Commerce will liquidate entries from Chandan and Kisaan Die, and from importers of subject merchandise exported by the 12 other companies under review without regard to AD.
