Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.310(c), 

interested parties who wish to request a 

hearing must submit a written request to 

the Assistant Secretary for Enforcement 

and Compliance, filed via ACCESS, 

within 30 days after the date of 

publication of this notice. An 

electronically-filed request must be 

received successfully in its entirety by 

5:00 p.m. Eastern Time within 30 days 

of the date of publication of this notice. 

Requests should contain: (1) The party’s 

name, address, and telephone number; 

(2) the number of participants; and (3) 

a list of issues to be discussed. Issues 

raised in the hearing will be limited to 

those raised in the respective case and 

rebuttal briefs. If a request for a hearing 

is made, Commerce intends to hold the 

hearing at a time and date to be 

determined. 

Assessment Rates 

Upon issuance of the final results of 

this review, Commerce will determine, 

and U.S. Customs and Border Protection 

(CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties 

on all appropriate entries of subject 

merchandise covered by this review. We 

intend to issue assessment instructions 

to CBP no earlier than 35 days after the 

date of publication of the final results of 

this review in the Federal Register. If a 

timely summons is filed at the U.S. 

Court of International Trade, the 

assessment instructions will direct CBP 

not to liquidate relevant entries until the 

time for parties to file a request for a 

statutory injunction has expired (i.e., 

within 90 days of publication). 

If these preliminary results are 

unchanged for the final results, we will 

instruct CBP to apply an ad valorem 

assessment rate of equal to the dumping 

margins stated above, adjusted for 

subsidy offsets to all entries of subject 

merchandise during the POR which 

were produced and/or exported by 

Chandan or exported by the companies 

which were not selected for individual 

examination. We intend to instruct CBP 

to take into account the ‘‘provisional 

measures deposit cap,’’ in accordance 

with 19 CFR 351.212(d). 

Cash Deposit Requirements 

The following cash deposit 

requirements will be effective upon 

publication of the notice of final results 

of this administrative review for all 

shipments of the subject merchandise 

entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, 

for consumption on or after the date of 

publication, as provided by section 

751(a)(2) of the Act: (1) The cash deposit 

rate for Chandan and the companies not 

individually examined will be equal to 

the rate established for Chandan in the 

final results of this administrative 

review; (2) for merchandise exported by 

producers or exporters not covered by 

this review but covered by a prior 

segment of the proceeding, the cash 

deposit rate will continue to be the 

company-specific rate published for the 

most recently completed segment of this 

proceeding; (3) if the exporter is not a 

firm covered by this review, a prior 

review, or the original investigation but 

the producer is, then the cash deposit 

rate will be the rate established for the 

most recently completed segment of this 

proceeding for the producer of the 

merchandise; (4) the cash deposit rate 

for all other producers or exporters will 

continue to be 14.29 percent, adjusted 

for subsidy offsets,17 the all-others rate 

established in the less-than-fair-value 

investigation. These cash deposit 

requirements, when imposed, shall 

remain in effect until further notice. 

Final Results of Review 

Unless otherwise extended, 

Commerce intends to issue the final 

results of this administrative review, 

which will include our analysis of the 

issues raised in any case and rebuttal 

briefs, not later than 120 days after the 

date of publication of this notice, 

pursuant to section 751(a)(3)(A) of the 

Act. 

Notification to Importers 

This notice serves as a preliminary 

reminder to importers of their 

responsibility under 19 CFR 

351.402(f)(2) to file a certificate 

regarding the reimbursement of 

antidumping duties prior to liquidation 

of the relevant entries during this POR. 

Failure to comply with this requirement 

could result in Commerce’s

antidumping duties occurred and the 

subsequent assessment of doubled 

antidumping duties.

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce 

(Commerce) preliminarily determines 

that the sole mandatory respondent 

subject to this review made sales of 

stainless steel bar (SS Bar) from India 

below normal value during the period of 

review (POR) February 1, 2019, through 

January 31, 2020. We invite interested 

parties to comment on these preliminary 

results. 

DATES: Applicable February 24, 2021.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

Commerce is conducting an 

administrative review of the 

antidumping duty (AD) order of SS Bar 

from India. The notice of initiation was 

published on April 8, 2020.1 This 

review covers Precision Metals, and its 

affiliated companies including 

Hindustan Inox, Precision Metals and 

Sieves Manufacturers (India) Pvt. Ltd. 

(collectively, the Venus Group), and 

Ambica Steels Limited (Ambica), 

producers and exporters of the subject 

merchandise. On June 2, 2019, 

Commerce selected the Venus Group as 

the sole mandatory respondent for this 

review.2 On April 24, 2020, Commerce 

uniformly tolled deadlines for all AD 

and countervailing duty (CVD) 

administrative reviews by 50 days 3 and, 

on July 21, 2020, we uniformly tolled 

deadlines for all AD and CVD 

administrative reviews by an additional 

60 days, thereby extending the deadline 

for these preliminary results until 

February 18, 2021.4

Scope of the Order 

The product covered by this review is 

SS bar from India. For a complete 

description of the scope, see the 

Preliminary Decision Memorandum.5

Methodology 

Commerce is conducting this review 

in accordance with section 751(a) of the 

Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). 

Pursuant to sections 776(a) and (b) of 

the Act, Commerce has preliminarily 

relied upon facts otherwise available 

with adverse inferences (AFA) for the 

Venus Group, because this respondent 

withheld information requested by 

Commerce and failed to provide such 

information by the deadlines set by 

Commerce. 

For a full description of the 

methodology and analysis underlying 

the preliminary application of AFA, see 

the Preliminary Decision Memorandum. 

A list of topics included in the 

Preliminary Decision Memorandum is 

included as an appendix to this notice. 

The Preliminary Decision Memorandum 

is a public document and is made 

available to the public via Enforcement 

and Compliance’s Antidumping and 

Countervailing Duty Centralized 

Electronic Service System (ACCESS). 

ACCESS is available to registered users 

at https://access.trade.gov. In addition, a 

complete version of the Preliminary 

Decision Memorandum can be accessed 

directly at http://enforcement.trade.gov/ 

frn/. The signed and electronic versions 

of the Preliminary Decision 

Memorandum are identical in content. 

Rate for Non-Selected Company 

In accordance with the U.S. Court of 

Appeals for the Federal Circuit’s 

decision in Albermarle,6 we are 

applying a rate based on the rate 

calculated for Ambica in the 2018–2019 

administrative review (i.e., 0.00) to the 

only company not selected for 

individual examination, Ambica. In this 

review, we find this rate is reasonably 

reflective of Ambica’s potential 

dumping margin, and thus, it is 

appropriate to apply this rate to the nonselected company, Ambica, under 

section 735(c)(5)(B) of the Act. For a 

detailed discussion, see the Preliminary 

Decision Memorandum. 

Preliminary Results of Review 

As a result of our review, we 

preliminarily determine the following 

weighted-average dumping margin for 

the period Febuary 1, 2019, through 

January 31, 2020: 

Exporter/producer

Precision Metals, and its affiliated companies including Hindustan Inox, Precision Metals 

and Sieves Manufacturers 

(India) Pvt. Ltd ........................ 30.92 

Ambica Steels Limited ................ 0.00 

Assessment Rates 

Upon completion of the 

administrative review, Commerce shall 

determine, and U.S. Customs and 

Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, 

antidumping duties on all appropriate 

entries covered by this review.7 The 

final results of this review shall be the 

basis for the assessment of antidumping 

duties on entries of merchandise 

covered by the final results of this 

review and for future deposits of 

estimated duties, where applicable.8 If 

the preliminary results are unchanged 

for the final results, we will instruct 

CBP to apply an ad valorem assessment 

rate of 30.92 percent to all entries of 

subject merchandise during the POR 

from the Venus Group and Ambica. 

Commerce intends to issue 

assessment instructions to CBP no 

earlier than 35 days after the date of 

publication of the final results of this 

review in the Federal Register. If a 

timely summons is filed at the U.S. 

Court of International Trade, the 

assessment instructions will direct CBP 

not to liquidate relevant entries until the 

time for parties to file a request for a 

statutory injunction has expired (i.e., 

within 90 days of publication). 

Cash Deposit Requirements 

The following cash deposit 

requirements will be effective for all 

shipments SS Bar from India entered, or 

withdrawn from warehouse, for 

consumption on or after the date of 

publication of the final results of this 

review in the Federal Register, as 

provided for by section 751(a)(2)(C) of 

the Act: (1) The cash deposit rate for the 

company under review will be the rate 

established in the final results of this 

review (except, if the rate is zero or de 

minimis, no cash deposit will be 

required); (2) for previously reviewed or 

investigated companies not listed above, 

the cash deposit rate will continue to be 

the company-specific rate published for 

the most recent period; (3) if the 

exporter is not a firm covered in this 

review, a prior review, or the less-thanVerDate Sep<11>2014 17:21 Feb 23, 2021 Jkt 253001 PO 00000 Frm 00020 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 E:\FR\FM\24FEN1.SGM 24FEN1
