SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On August 8, 2025, Commerce published the Preliminary Results of
this review and invited interested parties to comment.\1\ Due to the
lapse in appropriations and Federal Government shutdown, on November
14, 2025, Commerce tolled all deadlines in administrative proceedings
by 47 days.\2\ Additionally, due to a backlog of documents that were
electronically filed via Enforcement and Compliance's Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Centralized Electronic Service System (ACCESS)
during the Federal Government shutdown, on November 24, 2025, Commerce
tolled all deadlines in administrative proceedings by an additional 21
days.\3\ On February 10, 2026, Commerce extended the deadline for
issuing the final results of this administrative review until March 11,
2026.\4\ For a complete description of the
[[Page 18408]]
events that followed the Preliminary Results, see the Issues and
Decision Memorandum.\5\ The Issues and Decision Memorandum is a public
document and is made available to the public via ACCESS. ACCESS is
available to registered users at <a href="http://access.trade.gov">http://access.trade.gov</a>. In addition,

Analysis of Comments Received
All issues raised in the case and rebuttal briefs are addressed in
the Issues and Decision Memorandum. A list of the issues that parties
raised and to which we responded in the Issues and Decision Memorandum
is attached to this notice in the Appendix.
Changes Since the Preliminary Results
Based on a review of the record, we made certain changes to the
margin calculations for these final results. For a discussion of these
changes, see the Issues and Decision Memorandum.
Final Results of the Review
Commerce determines that the following estimated weighted-average
dumping margin existed during the period April 1, 2023, through March
31, 2024:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Weighted-
average
Exporter/producer dumping
margin
(percent)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mangal Steel Enterprises Limited........................... 0.00
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Disclosure
Commerce intends to disclose the calculations performed in
connection with these final results to interested parties within five
days of any public announcement or, if there is no public announcement,
within five days of the publication date of the notice of final results
in the Federal Register.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\8\ See 19 CFR 351.224(b).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Assessment Rates
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act and 19 CFR
351.212(b)(1), Commerce shall determine, and U.S. Customs and Border
Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate
entries covered by this review. Because the weighted-average dumping
margin for Mangal has been determined to be zero percent, we intend to
instruct CBP to liquidate Mangal's entries without regard to
antidumping duties, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.106(c)(2).
In accordance with Commerce's ``automatic assessment'' practice,
for entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by Mangal
for which it did not know that the merchandise was destined for the
United States, we will instruct CBP to liquidate those entries at the
all-others rate established in the original less-than-fair-value (LTFV)
investigation of 0.00 percent,\9\ if there is no rate for the
intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction.\10\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\9\ See Order, 85 FR at 19926.
\10\ See Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Proceedings:
Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 68 FR 23954 (May 6, 2003).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
We intend to issue instructions to CBP no earlier than 35 days
after the publication date 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).
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit requirements will be effective for all
shipments of the subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from
warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date of these
final results of review in the Federal Register, as provided by section
751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) the cash deposit rate for Mangal will be
equal to the weighted-average dumping margin established in the final
results of this administrative review; (2) for merchandise exported by
producers or exporters 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 for the most recently-completed
segment of this proceeding in which they were reviewed; (3) if the
exporter is not a firm covered in this review, a prior review, or the
original investigation but the producer is, then the cash deposit rate
will be the rate established for the most recently completed segment of
this proceeding for the producer of the merchandise; and (4) the cash
deposit rate for all other producers or exporters will continue to be
0.00 percent, the all-others rate established in the LTFV
investigation, adjusted for the export-subsidy rate in the companion
countervailing duty investigation.\11\ These cash deposit requirements,
when imposed, shall remain in effect until further notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\11\ See Order, 85 FR at 19926.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notification to Importers
This notice serves as a final reminder to importers of their
responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a certificate
regarding the reimbursement of antidumping duties prior to liquidation
of the relevant entries during the POR. Failure to comply with this
requirement could result in Commerce's presumption that reimbursement
of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of double
antidumping duties.
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
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
the terms of an APO is a sanctionable violation.
Notification to Interested Parties
We are issuing and publishing this notice in accordance with
sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.213(h) and
351.221(b)(5).
