SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

This preliminary determination is 

made in accordance with section 703(b) 

of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended 

(the Act). Commerce published the 

notice of initiation of this countervailing 

duty (CVD) investigation on May 24, 

2023.1 On June 30, 2023, Commerce 

postponed the preliminary 

determination of this investigation until 

September 25, 2023.2

events that followed the initiation of 

this investigation, see the Preliminary 

Decision Memorandum.3 A list of topics

Memorandum is included as Appendix

Scope of the Investigation 

The products covered by this 

investigation are steel cylinders. For a 

complete description of the scope of this 

investigation, see Appendix I. 

Methodology 

Commerce is conducting this 

investigation in accordance with section 

701 of the Act. For each of the subsidy 

programs found countervailable, 

Commerce determines that there is a 

subsidy, i.e., a financial contribution by 

an ‘‘authority’’ that gives rise to a 

benefit to the recipient, and that the 

subsidy is specific.4 Commerce notes 

that, in making these findings, it relied, 

in part, on facts available and, because 

it finds that the Government of India did 

not act to the best of its ability to 

respond to Commerce’s requests for 

information, Commerce has drawn an 

adverse inference where appropriate in 

selecting from among the facts 

otherwise available.5 For a full
