SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    Commerce is conducting an administrative review of the antidumping 
duty order on shrimp from India. The review covers 231 producers and/or 
exporters of the subject merchandise. Commerce selected two mandatory 
respondents for individual examination: Devi Fisheries Limited/Satya 
Seafoods Private Limited/Usha Seafoods/Devi Aquatech Private Limited 
(collectively, Devi); and Devi Marine Food Exports Private Ltd./Kader 
Exports Private Limited/Kader Investment and Trading Company Private 
Limited/Liberty Frozen Foods Pvt. Ltd./Liberty Oil Mills Ltd./Premier 
Marine Products Private Limited/Universal Cold Storage Private Limited 
(collectively, Liberty Group). The POR is February 1, 2016, through 
January 31, 2017.
    We preliminarily determine that sales to the United States have 
been made below normal value and, therefore, are subject to antidumping 
duties. If these preliminary results are adopted in the final results 
of this review, we will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection 
(CBP) to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries. We 
invite all interested parties to comment on these preliminary 
results.\1\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ Commerce exercised its discretion to toll all deadlines 
affected by the closure of the Federal Government from January 20 
through 22, 2018. If the new deadline falls on a non-business day, 
in accordance with Commerce's practice, the deadline will become the 
next business day. The revised deadline for the preliminary results 
of this review is now March 5, 2018. See Memorandum for The Record 
from Christian Marsh, Deputy Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and 
Compliance, performing the non-exclusive functions and duties of the 
Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance, ``Deadlines 
Affected by the Shutdown of the Federal Government,'' dated January 
23, 2018. All deadlines in this segment of the proceeding have been 
extended by three days.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

than 120 days after the publication date of this notice, pursuant to 
section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act.

Assessment Rates

    Upon completion of the administrative review, Commerce shall 
determine, and CBP shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate 
entries covered by this review.
    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), because Devi and the Liberty 
Group reported the entered value for of their all their U.S. sales, we 
will calculate importer-specific ad valorem duty assessment rates based 
on the ratio of the total amount of antidumping duties calculated for 
the examined sales to the total entered value of the sales for which 
entered value was reported. Where either the respondent's weighted-
average dumping margin is zero or de minimis within the meaning of 19 
CFR 351.106(c), or an importer-specific rate is zero or de minimis, we 
will instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate entries without regard 
to antidumping duties.
    For the companies which were not selected for individual review, we 
will assign an assessment rate based on the average \12\ of the cash 
deposit rates calculated for the companies selected for mandatory 
review (i.e., Devi and the Liberty Group), excluding any which are de 
minimis or determined entirely on adverse facts available. The final 
results of this review shall be the basis for the assessment of 
antidumping duties on entries of merchandise covered by the final 
results of this review and for future deposits of estimated duties, 
where applicable.\13\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \12\ This rate will be calculated as discussed in the 
``Preliminary Results of the Review'' section, above.
    \13\ See section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    We intend to issue liquidation instructions to CBP 15 days after 
publication of the final results of this review.

Cash Deposit Requirements

    The following 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 the 
final results of this administrative review, as provided by section 
751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) The cash deposit rate for each specific 
company listed above will be that established in the final results of 
this review, except if the rate is less than 0.50 percent and, 
therefore, de minimis within the meaning of 19 CFR 351.106(c)(1), in 
which case the cash deposit rate will be zero; (2) for previously 
reviewed or investigated companies not participating in this review, 
the cash deposit will continue to be the company-specific rate 
published for the most recently completed segment; (3) if the exporter 
is not a firm covered in this review, or the original less-than-fair-
value (LTFV) investigation, but the manufacturer is, the cash deposit 
rate will be the rate established for the most recent segment for the 
manufacturer of the merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit rate for all 
other manufacturers or exporters will continue to be 10.17 percent, the 
all-others rate made effective by the LTFV investigation.\14\ These 
deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until 
further notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Than Fair Value and Antidumping Duty Order: Certain Frozen Warmwater 
Shrimp from India, 70 FR 5147 (February 1, 2005).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Notification to Importers

    This notice also serves as a preliminary reminder to importers of 
their responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f) 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 the subsequent 
assessment of double antidumping duties.
    We are issuing and publishing these results in accordance with 
sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.

    Dated: March 5, 2018.
Gary Taverman,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Operations, performing the non-exclusive functions and duties of the 
Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
