Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Operations, titled ``Certain 
Hot-Rolled Carbon Steel Flat Products from India: Decision 
Memorandum for the Preliminary Results of the Antidumping Duty 
Administrative Review; 2013-2014'' (Preliminary Decision 
Memorandum), dated concurrently with and adopted by this notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Methodology

    The Department conducted this review in accordance with section 
751(a)(2) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). For a full 
description of the methodology underlying our preliminary results, see 
the Preliminary Decision Memorandum. The Preliminary 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 http://access.trade.gov and is available to all 
parties in the Central Records Unit, Room B8024 of the main Department

an Appendix to this notice.

Preliminary Determination of No Shipments

    Ispat, JSW, JSW Ispat, and Tata submitted timely-filed 
certifications that they had no exports, sales, or entries of subject 
merchandise during the POR,\3\ and a query of U.S. Customs and Border 
Protection (CBP) data did not show any POR entries of subject 
merchandise by Ispat, JSW, JSW Ispat, and Tata.\4\ In addition, CBP did 
not identify any entries of subject merchandise from Ispat, JSW, JSW 
Ispat, and Tata during the POR in response to an inquiry from the 
Department asking CBP for such information.\5\ Based on the foregoing, 
the Department preliminarily determines that Ispat, JSW, JSW Ispat, and 
Tata had no shipments of the subject merchandise, and, therefore, no 
reviewable transactions, during the POR.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ See Letter from JSW titled, ``Certain Hot-Rolled Carbon 
Steel Flat Products from India: No Shipment Certification of JSW 
Steel Ltd.'' (February 27, 2015). JSW's letter stated, 
``{p{time} lease note that this statement applies as well to the 
companies listed in the Department's initiation notice as Ispat 
Industries Ltd. and JSW Ispat Steel Ltd. Those companies no longer 
exist as separate entities, but have been merged into JSW Steel.'' 
See Letter from Tata titled, ``Antidumping Duty Review of Certain 
Hot-Rolled Carbon Steel Flat Products from India: Tata Steel Limited 
Certification of No Shipments'' (March 10, 2015); see also

Reviews, 80 FR 6041 (February 4, 2015).

Protection (CBP) Data Query Results,'' dated February 4, 2015; see 
also Memorandum to the File titled, ``Customs and Border Protection 
(CBP) Data Query Results based on Second Data Query,'' dated 
February 24, 2015.
    \5\ See CBP Message Number 5204308, dated July 23, 2015.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Assessment Rate

    Upon issuance of the final results of this administrative review, 
the Department shall determine, and CBP shall assess, antidumping 
duties on all appropriate entries, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212. 
The Department intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP 15 days 
after publication of the final results of this review.
    The Department clarified its ``automatic assessment'' regulation on 
May 6, 2003.\6\ If applicable, this clarification will apply to all 
entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced or exported by 
Ispat, JSW, JSW Ispat, and Tata, for which these companies did not know 
that its merchandise was destined for the United States. Furthermore, 
this clarification applies to all POR entries entered under the case 
number for Ispat, JSW, JSW Ispat, and Tata if we continue to make a 
final determination of no shipments of subject merchandise, because 
these companies and their representatives certified that they made no 
POR shipments of subject merchandise for which they had knowledge of 
U.S. destination. In such instances, we will instruct CBP to liquidate 
these entries at the all others rate established in the less-than fair-
value (LTFV) investigation, as amended, which is 38.72 percent,\7\ if 
there is no rate for the intermediary involved in the transaction. 
These cash deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect 
until further notice.\8\

Cash Deposit Requirements

warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication of the final 
results of this administrative review, as provided by section 751(a)(2)

segment of the proceeding, the cash deposit rate will continue to be 
the company-specific rate published for the most recently completed

in this review, a prior review, or the original investigation, but the

the most recently completed segment of this proceeding for the

for all other manufacturers or exporters will continue to be 38.72 
percent, the all-others rate established in the LTFV investigation, as 
amended. These cash deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in

Notification to Importers

    This notice 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 duties prior to liquidation 
of the relevant entries during this review period. Failure to comply 
with this requirement could result in the Secretary's presumption that 
reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and increase the 
subsequent

[[Page 54523]]

assessment of the antidumping duties by the amount of antidumping 
duties reimbursed.
    These preliminary results of review are issued and published in 
accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.

    Dated: September 2, 2015.
