A list of the issues raised by interested parties and to which we responded in the Issues and Decision Memorandum is provided in Appendix I to this notice. 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).

                    *https://access.trade.gov/​public/​FRNoticesListLayout.aspx.* Changes Since the Preliminary Results After evaluating the comments received from interested parties and record information, we have made no changes to the net subsidy rates calculated for Chandan Steel Limited (Chandan) and Kisaan Die Tech Pvt Ltd.

                    *see*
                     the Issues and Decision Memorandum. Methodology Commerce is conducting this review in accordance with section 751(a)(l)(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 financial contribution from a government or public entity that gives rise to a benefit to the recipient, and the subsidy is specific.[5]
                    
                     For a full description of the methodology underlying our conclusions, 
                    *see*
                     the Issues and Decision Memorandum. Companies Not Selected for Individual Review For the companies not selected for individual review, because the rates calculated for Chandan and Kisaan are above 
                    *de minimis*
                     and not based entirely on facts available, we applied a subsidy rate based on the weighted-average of 
                    ( print page 27564)
                    the subsidy rates calculated for Chandan and Kisaan using publicly ranged sales data submitted by the respondents.[6]
                    
                     We have made no changes to the subsidy rate calculated for companies not selected for individual review. Final Results of Administrative Review In accordance with section 751(a)(1)(A) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(5), we determine the total estimated net countervailable subsidy rates for the period January 1, 2019, through December 31, 2019, to be as follows: Company

 Disclosure Normally, Commerce discloses to interested parties the calculations performed in connection with final results within five days of any public announcement or, if there is no public announcement, within five days of the date of publication of the notice of final determination in the 
                    **Federal Register**
                    , in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b). However, because there are no changes from the 
                    *Preliminary Results,*
                     there are no new calculations to disclose. Assessment Rate Consistent with section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act, upon issuance of the final results, 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 publication of these final results. 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 Pursuant to section 751(a)(1) of the Act, Commerce intends to instruct CBP to collect cash deposits of estimated countervailing duties in the amounts indicated above with regard to shipments of subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the date of publication of the final results of this review. For all non-reviewed firms, CBP will continue to collect cash deposits of estimated countervailing duties at the most recent company-specific or all-others rate applicable to the company, as appropriate. These cash deposit instructions, when imposed, shall remain in effect until further notice. Administrative Protective Order This notice also serves as a final reminder to parties subject to an administrative protective order (APO) of their responsibility concerning the return or destruction of proprietary information disclosed under APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3), which continues to govern business proprietary information in this segment of proceeding. Timely written notification of the return/destruction of APO materials or conversion to judicial protective order is hereby requested. Failure to comply with the regulations and terms of an APO is a violation which is subject to sanction. Notification to Interested Parties These final results are issued and published in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(5). Dated: May 3, 2022. Lisa W.
