In the preliminary results, all three companies under review were assigned a zero percent AD rate. After the agency reviewed comments from interested parties, it determined that a dumping margin should be assigned to Kumar Industries, because it "withheld requested information, failed to provide such information by the established deadlines, and significantly impeded this proceeding." An adverse inference was added because Kumar didn't cooperate. That also meant a revision to the AD rate assigned to the company not selected for individual examination, Bajaj Healthcare Limited -- i.e., a rate equal to the simple average of the dumping margins for Avid (which remained at zero percent) and Kumar.

Cash Deposit Requirements

The following AD cash deposit requirements take effect April 15, the date these final results are to be published in the Federal Register:

ExporterAD Rate
Avid Organics Private Limitedzero
Kumar Industries57.17%
Bajaj Healthcare Limited28.59%

For exporters of subject merchandise that were not under review (i.e., all except the three listed 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 7.23% applies.

Assessment Rates

In these final results, Commerce will also set assessments on importers for entries from the three companies under review during the period June 1, 2022, through May 31, 2023. Importers of subject merchandise from Avid Organics won't be assessed AD; importers of subject merchandise from Kumar be assigned importer-specific rates. Importers of subject merchandise from Bajaj will be assessed AD the rate listed above.

(The review period is 06/01/22 - 05/31/23. See Commerce's notice for more information, including the scope of the order, detailed cash deposit and assessment instructions, etc. See 2407030021 for a summary of the preliminary results of this administrative review.)
