Commerce published the Preliminary

We invited interested parties to

Scope of the Order
The product covered by this review is
CORE from India. For a full description
of the scope, see the Issues and Decision
Memorandum dated concurrently with,
and hereby adopted by, this notice.4
Final Determination of No Shipments
In the Preliminary Results, we found
that JSW Steel Ltd. and JSW Coated
Products Ltd. (collectively, JSW), had no
shipments during the POR. Following
the publication of the Preliminary
Results, we received no comments from
interested parties regarding this
company, nor has any party submitted
record evidence which would call this
finding into question. Therefore, for the
final results, we continue to find that
JSW had no shipments during the POR.
Accordingly, consistent with
Commerce’s practice, we intend to
instruct U.S. Customs and Border
Protection (CBP) to liquidate any
existing entries of merchandise
produced by JSW, but exported by other
parties without their own rate, at the allothers rate.5

rebuttal briefs by parties to this
administrative review are addressed in

found that the application of facts
otherwise available with adverse

(b) of the Act, was warranted. For
further discussion, see the Issues and

assigned to Uttam Galva is based on
adverse facts available with adverse
inferences. Accordingly, no disclosure

final results.

Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(A) of the
Act, and 19 CFR 351.212(b), Commerce
has determined, and CBP shall assess,
