Analysis of Comments Received
Commerce addressed the issue raised in response to its Intent to
Rescind Memorandum in the Issues and Decision Memorandum. A list of
topics discussed in the Issues and Decision Memorandum is included as
the appendix 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). ACCESS is available to registered users at
<a href="https://access.trade.gov">https://access.trade.gov</a>. In addition, a complete version of the Issues
and Decision Memorandum can be accessed directly at <a href="https://access.trade.gov/public/FRNoticesListLayout.aspx">https://access.trade.gov/public/FRNoticesListLayout.aspx</a>.
Rescission of Administrative Review
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), Commerce will rescind an
administrative review, in whole or in part, if the party that requested
a review withdraws its request within 90 days of the date of
publication of the notice of initiation. As stated above, Meghmani
withdrew its request for an administrative review by the established
90-day deadline and there were no other requests for review of
Meghmani.
Additionally, pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3), Commerce will
rescind an administrative review, in whole or only with respect to a
particular exporter or producer, if the Secretary concludes that,
during the period covered by the review, there were no entries,
exports, or sales of the subject merchandise, as the case may be.
Normally, upon completion of an administrative review, the suspended
entries are liquidated at the antidumping duty assessment rate for the
review period.\11\ Therefore, for an administrative review to be
conducted, there must be a reviewable, suspended entry that Commerce
can instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to liquidate at
the calculated antidumping duty assessment rate for the review period.
As noted above, there were no suspended entries of subject merchandise
from Navpad during the POR for Commerce to review.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\11\ See 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Based on the foregoing facts, Commerce is rescinding this review in
its entirety for Meghmani and Navpad, in accordance with 19 CFR
351.213(d)(1) and (3), respectively.
Cash Deposit Requirements
As Commerce has proceeded to a final rescission of this
administrative review, no cash deposit rates will change. Accordingly,
the current cash deposit requirements shall remain in effect until
further notice.
Assessment
Commerce will instruct CBP to assess antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries at rates equal to the cash deposit of estimated
antidumping duties required at the time of entry, or withdrawal from
warehouse, for consumption, during the period December 1, 2021, through
November 30, 2022, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(c)(1)(i). Commerce
intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP no earlier than 35 days
after publication of this notice in the Federal Register.
Notification to Importers
This notice serves as the only reminder to importers of their
responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a certificate
regarding the reimbursement of antidumping duties and/or countervailing
duties prior to liquidation of the relevant entries during the review
period. Failure to comply with this requirement could result in the
presumption that reimbursement of antidumping duties and/or
countervailing duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of doubled
antidumping duties, and/or an increase in the amount of antidumping
duties by the amount of the countervailing duties.
Notification Regarding Administrative Protective Orders
This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to
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
the proceeding. Timely written notification of the return or
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
This notice is issued and published in accordance with sections
751(a)(1) and 777(i)(l) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.213(d)(4).
Dated: May 3, 2023.

Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty
Operations.
