Commerce calculated the following AD duty cash deposit rates, which take effect March 11:

ExporterAD Rate

Kisaan Die Tech Private Limitedzero
Review Average Rate (applicable to 12 companies)zero

Average Rate. Commerce didn't individually investigate 12 companies subject to this review: Balkrishna Steel Forge Pvt. Ltd.; BFN Forgings Private Limited / Bebitz Flanges Works Private Limited / Fanschen werk Bebitz GmbH / Viraj Alloys, Ltd. / Viraj Forgings, Ltd. / Viraj Impoexpo, Ltd. / Viraj Profiles Limited; Echjay Forgings Private Limited; Fivebros Forging Pvt Ltd. (incorrectly listed as Fivebros Pvt Ltd. in the Initiation Notice); Goodluck India Limited; Hilton Metal Forging Limited; Jai Auto Pvt. Ltd.; Jay Jagdamba Forgings Pvt Ltd; Jay Jagdamba Ltd; Jay Jagdamba Profile Pvt Ltd; Pradeep Metals Limited; and Shree Jay Jagdamba Flanges Pvt. Ltd.

Commerce will order CBP to 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.

For exporters of subject merchandise that were not under review (i.e., all except the 14 companies referenced above), 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 of 7% applies.

(The review period is 10/01/21 - 09/30/22. See Commerce's notice for more information, including the scope of the order, detailed cash deposit and assessment instructions, etc. See 2311070051 for summary of the preliminary results of this review.)
