Estimated reading time: 3-5 minutes
The U.S. Department of Commerce has published its final results regarding the antidumping duty review of sodium nitrite imports from India. This review covered the period from February 1, 2024, to January 31, 2025.
The review was conducted by the International Trade Administration’s Enforcement and Compliance division. Their findings show certain Indian producers and exporters sold sodium nitrite in the United States at prices less than normal value during this time.
Key Outcomes:
- Deepak Nitrite Limited, an Indian producer, has been assigned a dumping margin of 0.00 percent.
- Kronox Lab Sciences Pvt Ltd and Kutch Chemical Industries Ltd face a dumping margin of 42.76 percent.
The review also included a decision to rescind the administrative review for non-examined companies, Buradon Inc., Palvi Industries Limited, and Lotus Global Pvt. Ltd. This decision was based on the absence of suspended entries during the review period.
Cash Deposit Requirements:
- The cash deposit rate for goods from companies reviewed is based on these results.
- Companies not reviewed will continue under their last known rate.
- For exports where the producer is covered but the exporter is not, the producer’s rate will apply.
- The all-others rate remains at 42.76 percent.
Upcoming Actions:
The Commerce Department will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to assess duties on applicable entries. These instructions will be issued no earlier than 35 days after the announcement date.
The report also reminds importers about their duty to file certificates regarding the reimbursement of duties. This compliance is important to avoid penalties.
The review has been completed without any changes or revisions to the preliminary findings. The Commerce Department follows a set process for reviewing antidumping actions, and this review was conducted in line with those guidelines.
The findings are official and published according to the regulations of the Trade Act of 1930.
