Extension of Time Limits Regulation 

Parties may request an extension of 

time limits before a time limit 

established under Part 351 expires, or as 

otherwise specified by Commerce.10 In 

general, an extension request will be 

considered untimely if it is filed after 

the time limit established under Part 

351 expires. For submissions which are 

due from multiple parties 

simultaneously, an extension request 

will be considered untimely if it is filed 

after 10:00 a.m. on the due date. 

Examples include, but are not limited 

to: (1) Case and rebuttal briefs, filed 

pursuant to 19 CFR 351.309; (2) factual 

information to value factors under 19 

CFR 351.408(c), or to measure the 

adequacy of remuneration under 19 CFR 

351.511(a)(2), filed pursuant to 19 CFR 

351.301(c)(3) and rebuttal, clarification 

and correction filed pursuant to 19 CFR 

351.301(c)(3)(iv); (3) comments 

concerning the selection of a surrogate 

country and surrogate values and 

rebuttal; (4) comments concerning CBP 

data; and (5) Q&V questionnaires. Under 

certain circumstances, Commerce may 

elect to specify a different time limit by 

which extension requests will be 

considered untimely for submissions 

which are due from multiple parties 

simultaneously. In such a case, 

Commerce will inform parties in the 

letter or memorandum setting forth the 

deadline (including a specified time) by 

which extension requests must be filed 

to be considered timely. This policy also 

requires that an extension request must 

be made in a separate, stand-alone 

submission, and clarifies the 

circumstances under which Commerce 

will grant untimely-filed requests for the 

extension of time limits. Please review

Review; 2019

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce 

(Commerce) determines that Reliance

countervailable subsidies that are above 

de minimis during the period of review 

(POR), January 1, 2019, through 

December 31, 2019. 

DATES: Applicable September 7, 2021.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On May 18, 2021, Commerce 

published the Preliminary Results of 

this review.1 A summary of the events 

that occurred since Commerce 

published the Preliminary Results, as 

well as a full discussion of the issues 

raised by parties for these final results, 

are discussed in the Issues and Decision 

Memorandum.2 The Issues and Decision 

Memorandum is a public document and 

is on file electronically 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 Issues and 

Decision Memorandum can be accessed 

directly at https:// 

enforcement.trade.gov/frn/. 

Scope of the Order 

The merchandise covered by this 

order is fine denier polyester staple fiber 

(fine denier PSF). For a complete 

description of the scope of this order, 

see the Issues and Decision 

Memorandum. 

Analysis of Comments Received 

All issues raised in the interested 

parties’ case and rebuttal briefs are 

addressed in the Issues and Decision 

Memorandum. Based on our analysis of 

the comments received from interested 

parties and record information, we 

revised the prohibited subsidy rate 

calculated for Reliance. 

Methodology 

Commerce conducted this 

administrative review in accordance 

with section 751(a)(1)(A) of the Tariff 

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

each of the subsidy programs found 

countervailable, we find that there is a 

subsidy, i.e., a government-provided 

financial contribution that gives rise to 

a benefit to the recipient, and that the 

subsidy is specific.3 For a description of 

the methodology underlying 

Commerce’s conclusions, see the Issues 

and Decision Memorandum. 

Final Results of the Administrative 

Review 

In accordance with section 751(a)(1) 

of the Act and 19 CFR 351.221(B)(5), we 

find the net countervailable subsidy rate 

for the POR January 1, 2019, through 

December 31, 2019 to be as follows: 

Company 

Subsidy rate 

(percent ad 

valorem) 

Reliance Industries Limited .. 4.89 

Assessment and Cash Deposit 

Requirements 

In accordance with section 

751(a)(2)(C) of the Act and 19 CFR 

351.212(b)(2), Commerce shall 

determine, and U.S. Customs and 

Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, 

countervailing duties on all appropriate 

entries covered by this review. 

Commerce intends to issue appropriate 

assessment instructions to CBP no 

earlier than 35 days after the date of this 

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). 

In accordance with section 751(a)(1) 

of the Act, we also intend to instruct

5 In prior segments of this proceeding, we 

determined that Norma (India) Limited; USK 

Exports Private Limited; Uma Shanker Khandelwal 

& Co.; and Bansidhar Chiranjilal should be 

collapsed and treated as a single entity (the Norma 

Group). See Finished Carbon Steel Flanges from

Norma Group presented evidence that the factual 

basis on which Commerce made its prior 

determination has not changed. See Norma Group’s 

Letter, ‘‘Finished Carbon Steel Flanges from India: 

Response to Section A–D of Antidumping Duty 

Supplemental Questionnaire,’’ dated August 11, 

2021 at S1–2–S1–8. Therefore, in this 

administrative review, Commerce continues to 

collapse and treat these four companies as a single 

entity.
