SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On June 21, 2019, Commerce published in the Federal Register an 
antidumping duty order on glycine from India.\1\ On June 3, 2024, 
Commerce published in the Federal Register a notice of opportunity to 
request an administrative review of the Order.\2\ On July 29, 2024, 
Commerce published the notice of initiation of the administrative 
review of the Order, covering 25 foreign producers and/or exporters.\3\ 
On December 9, 2024, Commerce tolled certain deadlines in this 
administrative proceeding by 90 days.\4\ On April 22, 2025, we extended 
the time limit for completion of these preliminary results to September 
26, 2025, in accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 
1930, as amended (the Act).\5\

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Scope of the Order

    The product covered by the scope of the Order is glycine from 
India. For a complete description of the scope of the Order, see the 
Preliminary Decision Memorandum.\6\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ See Memorandum, ``Decision Memorandum for the Preliminary 
Results of the Administrative Review of the Antidumping Duty Order 
on Glycine from India; 2022-2023,'' dated concurrently with, and 
hereby adopted by, this notice (Preliminary Decision Memorandum).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Partial 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 parties that 
requested a review withdraw the request within 90 days of the date of 
publication of the notice of initiation. All review requests were 
timely withdrawn for all companies listed in the Initiation Notice, 
except for: (1) Bajaj Healthcare Limited (Bajaj); (2) Kumar Industries; 
and (3) Paras Intermediaries Private Limited.\7\ Therefore, in 
accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), Commerce is partially rescinding 
this review of the Order for these 22 companies.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ See Deer Park Glycine, LLC's Letters, ``Partial Withdrawal 
of Request for Administrative Review'' and ``Withdrawal of Request 
for Administrative Review of 23 Companies,'' dated October 11, 2024, 
and October 25, 2024, respectively; see also Avid Organics Private 
Limited's Letter, ``Withdrawal of Review Request of Anti-Dumping 
Duty Administrative Review,'' dated October 28, 2024.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3), it is Commerce's practice to 
rescind an administrative review of an antidumping duty order where it 
concludes that there were no suspended entries of subject merchandise 
during the POR.\8\ Normally, upon completion of an administrative 
review, the suspended entries are liquidated at the antidumping duty 
assessment rate for the review period.\9\ 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.\10\ Commerce notified all 
interested parties of its intent to rescind the instant review 
regarding Bajaj because there were no reviewable, suspended entries of 
subject merchandise from this company during the POR and invited 
interested parties to comment.\11\ We received no comments. In the 
absence of any suspended entries of subject merchandise from Bajaj 
during the POR, we are rescinding this administrative review with 
respect to Bajaj, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3).

Administrative Review; 2020-2021, 88 FR 4154 (January 24, 2023).

    \10\ See, e.g., Shanghai Sunbeauty Trading Co. v. United States, 
380 F.Supp.3d 1328, 1337 (CIT 2019), at 12 (referring to section 
751(a) of the Act, the U.S. Court of International Trade held that 
``{w{time} hile the statute does not explicitly require that an 
entry be suspended as a prerequisite for establishing entitlement to 
a review, it does explicitly state the determined rate will be used 
as the liquidation rate for the reviewed entries. This result can 
only obtain if the liquidation of entries has been suspended''; see

Vietnam: Final Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review and

FR 65532 (October 29, 2012) (noting that ``for an administrative 
review to be conducted, there must be a reviewable, suspended entry 
to be liquidated at the newly calculated assessment rate'').

dated November 15, 2024.

review are identified in Appendix II of this notice.

Final Results of Review

    Commerce intends to issue the final results of this administrative 
review, including the results of its analysis of the issues raised in 
any written briefs, no later than 120 days after the date of 
publication of this notice in the Federal Register, unless extended, 
pursuant to section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.213(h)(1).

Assessment Rates

    Upon completion of this administrative review, pursuant to section 
751(a)(2)(A) of the Act, Commerce shall determine, and U.S. Customs and 
Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties on all 
appropriate entries covered by this review. If the weighted-average 
dumping margin for a mandatory respondent is not zero or de minimis in 
the final results of this review, we will calculate an importer-
specific assessment rate on the basis of the ratio of the total amount 
of dumping calculated for each importer's examined sales and the total 
entered value of such sales in accordance with 19 CFR 
351.212(b)(1).\20\ If the weighted-average dumping margin is zero or de 
minimis in the final results of review, or if an importer-specific 
assessment rate is zero or de minimis, Commerce will instruct CBP to 
liquidate appropriate entries without regard to antidumping duties.\21\ 
For entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by the 
respondent(s) for which it did not know its merchandise was destined 
for the United States, we will instruct CBP to liquidate such entries 
at the all-others rate \22\ if there is no rate for the

[[Page 51652]]

intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction.\23\ The final 
results of this administrative review shall be the basis for the 
assessment of antidumping duties on entries of merchandise under review 
and for future cash deposits of estimated antidumping duties, where 
applicable.

Average Dumping Margin and Assessment Rate in Certain Antidumping 
Proceedings: Final Modification, 77 FR 8101, 8103 (February 14, 
2012).
    \21\ Id., 77 FR at 8102-03; see also 19 CFR 351.106(c)(2).
    \22\ The all-others rate is 13.61 percent. See Glycine from

Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 68 FR 23954 (May 6, 2003).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    For the companies for which we are rescinding this administrative 
review, antidumping duties shall be assessed 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 of 
review, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(c)(1)(i). For these 
companies, Commerce intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP no 
earlier than 35 days after the date of publication of these preliminary 
results in the Federal Register.
    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). The final results of this administrative 
review shall be the basis for the assessment of antidumping duties on 
entries of merchandise under review and for future cash deposits of 
estimated antidumping duties, where applicable.\24\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \24\ See section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Cash Deposit Requirements

    The following cash deposit requirements will be effective upon 
publication in the Federal Register of the 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)(C) of the Act: 
(1) the cash deposit rate for companies subject to this review will be 
equal to the company-specific weighted-average dumping margin 
established in the final results of this administrative review; (2) for 
merchandise exported by a company not covered in this review but 
covered in a prior segment of the proceeding, the cash deposit rate 
will continue to be the company-specific rate published in the 
completed segment for the most recent period; (3) if the exporter is 
not a firm covered in this review, a prior review, or the less-than-
fair-value investigation but the producer is, then the cash deposit 
rate will be the rate established in the most recently completed 
segment of the proceeding for the producer of the merchandise; and (4) 
the cash deposit rate for all other producers or exporters will 
continue to be 13.61 percent, the all-others rate established in the 
less-than-fair value investigation.\25\ These cash deposit 
requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until further 
notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \25\ See Order, 84 FR at 29171.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Notification to Importers

    This notice also 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 and/or countervailing duties 
prior to liquidation of the relevant entries during this review period. 
Failure to comply with this requirement could result in Commerce's 
presumption that reimbursement of antidumping and/or countervailing 
duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of double antidumping 
duties, and/or an increase in the amount of antidumping duties by the 
amount of the countervailing duties.

Notification to Interested Parties

    We are issuing and publishing these results in accordance with 
sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(4).

    Dated: September 26, 2025.
