will instruct CBP to assess that
importer’s (or customer’s) entries of
subject merchandise without regard to
antidumping duties in accordance with
19 CFR 351.106(c)(2). For entries that
were not reported in the U.S. sales
database submitted by RZBC during this
review, Commerce will instruct CBP to
liquidate such entries at the
antidumping duty assessment rate for
the China-wide entity (i.e., 156.87
percent).12
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following deposit requirements
will be effective upon publication of the
final results of this administrative
review for all shipments of the subject
merchandise from China entered, or
withdrawn from warehouse, for
consumption on or after the publication
date, as provided by section 751(a)(2)(C)
of the Act: (1) for RZBC the cash deposit
rate will be the margin listed above; (2)
for previously investigated or reviewed
Chinese and non-Chinese exporters not
listed above that have separate rates, the
cash deposit rate will continue to be the
exporter-specific rate published for the
most recently completed segment of this
proceeding in which they were
reviewed; (3) for all Chinese exporters of
subject merchandise that have not been
found to be entitled to a separate rate,
the cash deposit rate will be equal to the
weighted- average dumping margin for
the China-wide entity (i.e., 156.87
percent); and (4) for all non- Chinese
exporters of subject merchandise which
have not received their own separate
rate, the cash deposit rate will be the
rate applicable to the Chinese
exporter(s) that supplied that nonChinese exporter. These cash deposit
requirements, when imposed, shall
remain in effect until further notice.

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 and/or countervailing
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 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 countervailing duties.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On June 5, 2024, Commerce published
the preliminary results of the 2021–2023
administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on organic
soybean meal from India.1 We invited
interested parties to comment on the
Preliminary Results.2 No interested
parties submitted comments; thus, no
decision memorandum accompanies
this notice. The Preliminary Results are
hereby adopted as the final results of
this review. Commerce conducted this
review in accordance with section
751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (the Act).
Scope of the Order 3
The merchandise subject to the Order
is organic soybean meal from India. A
full description of the scope of the
Order is provided in the Preliminary
Results.4
Recission of Administrative Review, in
Part
In the Preliminary Results, we stated
that we intended to rescind this review
with respect to Sumati for which we
preliminarily found that Sumati did not
make a bona fide sale of organic
soybean meal during the POR.5 No party
filed comments with respect to this
preliminary finding. Therefore, we are
rescinding the administrative review
with respect to this company.
Final Results of the Review
We determine the following estimated
weighted-average dumping margins for
the period November 2, 2021, through
April 30, 2023.

Assessment Rates
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the
Act and 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1),
Commerce will determine, and U.S.
Customs and Border Protection (CBP)
shall assess, antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries of subject
merchandise in accordance with the
final results of this review. If the
weighted-average dumping margin is
not zero or de minimis (i.e., less than
0.50 percent), upon completion of the
final results, Commerce intends to
calculate importer-specific assessment
rates on the basis of the ratio of the total
amount of dumping calculated for each
importer’s examined sales to the total
entered value of those sales. Where we
do not have entered values for all U.S.
sales to a particular importer, we will
calculate an importer-specific, per-unit
assessment rate on the basis of the ratio
of the total amount of dumping
calculated for the importer’s examined
sales to the total quantity of those sales.6
To determine whether an importerspecific, per-unit assessment rate is de
minimis, in accordance with 19 CFR
351.106(c)(2), we also will calculate an
importer-specific ad valorem ratio based
on estimated entered values. Where the
weighted-average dumping margin is
zero or de minimis, or an importerspecific ad valorem assessment rate is
zero or de minimis, we will instruct CBP
to liquidate appropriate entries without
regard to antidumping duties.7
For entries of subject merchandise
during the POR produced by Shanti for
which it did not know that the
merchandise it sold to the intermediary
(e.g., reseller, trading company, or
exporter) was destined for the United
States, we will instruct CBP to liquidate
such entries at the all-others rate if there
is no rate for the intermediate
19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).

company(ies) involved in the
transaction.8
For the company for which we are
rescinding this review, we will instruct
CBP to assess antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries at a rate equal to the
cash deposit of estimated antidumping
duties required at the time of entry, or
withdrawal from warehouse, in
accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(c)(l)(i).
Commerce intends to issue these
rescission instructions to CBP no earlier
than 35 days after the publication of this
notice in the Federal Register.
Commerce intends to issue
assessment instructions to CBP no
earlier than 35 days after the date of
publication of these final results 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 subject merchandise
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,
for consumption on or after the date of
publication of the final results of this
administrative review, as provided for
by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) the
cash deposit rate for the companies
under review will equal to the dumping
margin established in the final results of
this review for each respondent (except,
if that rate is de minimis, then the cash
deposit rate will be zero); (2) for
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 or a prior
segment of the proceeding 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 3.07 percent, the allothers rate established in the less-thanfair-value investigation.9 These cash
deposit requirements, when imposed,
