The U.S. Department of Commerce has published the final results of its antidumping duty administrative review of Carbazole Violet Pigment 23 (CVP-23) imported from India. This review covers the period from December 1, 2023, to November 30, 2024.
The review focused on Western Chemical Industries P Limited (Western Chemical), a producer and exporter of CVP-23 in India. The Department found that Western Chemical did not sell CVP-23 at prices below the normal value in the United States during the specified period. Therefore, the company’s dumping margin was determined to be 0.00 percent.
Because the results did not change from the preliminary findings announced on February 13, 2026, there is no accompanying decision memorandum. No parties contested the preliminary findings.
The Department’s review was conducted under section 751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended. The scope of the order includes CVP-23 in any form. The Department conducts these reviews to ensure fair trade practices are followed.
Since no changes were made, there are no new calculations to disclose. The Department has confirmed with U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) that duties will be assessed according to these final results. Entries will be liquidated without additional antidumping duties due to the zero margin for Western Chemical.
Those involved in importing merchandise during the period should note that if they were unaware their products would enter the U.S., CBP may assess duties at the “all-others” rate from the original investigation, set at 27.48 percent.
Cash deposit requirements for future imports will reflect these results. If a company-specific rate is 0.00 percent, no cash deposit will be required. If a company was not reviewed but was included in an earlier segment with a specific rate, that rate will apply. Otherwise, the “all-others” rate of 27.48 percent will be used.
Importers must remember to file certificates regarding the reimbursement of duties as required by U.S. laws. Failure to do so may lead to the presumption of reimbursement and result in double duties or increased antidumping duties.
All parties under an Administrative Protective Order (APO) must manage their responsibilities regarding APO materials, including their return or destruction. Failure to comply with APO rules could lead to sanctions.
This notice is published in accordance with U.S. law and the Department’s regulations. The Department ensures fair and equitable trade practices by conducting thorough reviews.
