Analysis of Comments Received
All issues raised in the case and
rebuttal briefs filed by interested parties
in this review are discussed in the
Issues and Decision Memorandum. The
Issues and Decision Memorandum is a
public document and is made available
to the public via Enforcement and
Compliance’s Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Centralized
Electronic Service System (ACCESS).
ACCESS is available to registered users
at http://access.trade.gov. In addition, a
complete version of the Issues and
Decision Memorandum can be found at
https://access.trade.gov/public/
FRNoticesListLayout.aspx. A list of the
topics included in the Issues and
Decision Memorandum is attached as an
appendix to this notice.
Changes Since the Preliminary Results
Based on a review of the record and
our analysis of the comments received
from interested parties regarding our
Preliminary Results, and for the reasons
explained in the Issues and Decision
Memorandum, we did not make changes
to the Preliminary Results.
Rates for Non-Selected Respondents
The statute and Commerce’s
regulations do not address the
establishment of a rate to be applied to
companies not selected for examination
when Commerce limits its examination
in an administrative review pursuant to
section 777A(c)(2) of the Act. Generally,
Commerce looks to section 735(c)(5) of
the Act, which provides instructions for
calculating the all-others rate in a
market economy investigation, for
guidance when calculating the rate for
companies which were not selected for
individual examination in an
administrative review. For the
respondents that were not selected for
individual examination in this
administrative review, we have assigned
to them the simple average of the
margins for Avid Organics Private
Limited and Kumar Industries/Rudraa
International,
4
consistent with the
guidance in section 735(c)(5)(B) of the
Act.
5
Final Results of Review
We determine that the following
estimated weighted-average dumping
margins exist for the period October 31,
2018, through May 31, 2020.
Producer/exporter
Estimated
weighted-
average

Disclosure
Normally, Commerce discloses the
calculations performed in connection
with the final results of an
administrative review to parties in the
proceeding within five days of any
public announcement or, if there is no
public announcement, within five days
of the date of publication of the notice
of final results in the Federal Register,
in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b).
However, as noted above, Commerce
has made no changes to its margin
calculations since the Preliminary
Results. Commerce disclosed its
preliminary margin calculations to
parties in this proceeding, and there are
no additional calculations to disclose.
6
Assessment Rates
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the
Act, and 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1),
Commerce has determined, 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. For any
individually-examined respondent
whose weighted-average dumping
margin is above de minimis (i.e., 0.50
percent), we will calculate importer-
specific assessment rates on the basis of
the ratio of the total amount of
antidumping duties calculated for each
importer’s examined sales and the total
entered value of the sales, in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).
7
Where
either a respondent’s weighted-average
dumping margin is zero or de minimis,
or an importer-specific assessment rate
is zero or de minimis, we will instruct
CBP to liquidate appropriate entries
without regard to antidumping duties.
8
For entries of subject merchandise
during the period of review produced by
any of these companies for which it did
not know its merchandise 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 company(ies) involved in
the transaction.
9
Commerce intends to issue
assessment instructions to CBP no
earlier than 35 days after the date of
publication of the final results of this
review 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). The final
results of this administrative review
shall be the basis for the assessment of
antidumping duties on entries of
merchandise under review and for
future cash deposits of estimated
antidumping duties, where applicable.
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit
requirements will be effective upon
publication in the Federal Register of
the notice of these final results of
administrative review for all shipments
of glycine from India entered, or
withdrawn from warehouse, for
consumption on or after the date of
publication as provided by section
751(a)(2) of the Act: (1) The cash deposit
rate for companies subject to this review
will be equal to the company-specific
weighted-average dumping margin
established in the final results of the
review; (2) for merchandise exported by
a company not covered in this review
but covered in a prior segment of the

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 duties prior to
liquidation of the relevant entries
during this review period. Failure to
comply with this requirement could
result in Commerce’s presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties
occurred and the subsequent assessment
of double antidumping duties.
Administrative Protective Order
This notice also serves as a reminder
to parties subject to administrative
protective order (APO) of their
responsibility concerning the return or
destruction of proprietary information
disclosed under APO in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3), which
continues to govern business
proprietary information in this segment
of the proceeding. Timely written
notification of the return or destruction
of APO materials, or conversion to
judicial protective order, is hereby
requested. Failure to comply with the
regulations and the terms of an APO is
a sanctionable violation.
Notification to Interested Parties
We are issuing and publishing these
results in accordance with sections
751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19
CFR 351.221.

Notice of Amended Final Results

SUMMARY
: On October 27, 2021, the U.S.
Court of International Trade (CIT)
issued its final judgment in Diamond
Sawblades Manufacturers’ Coalition v.
United States, Court No. 17–00167,
sustaining the Department of Commerce
(Commerce)’s second remand results
pertaining to the administrative review
of the antidumping duty (AD) order on
diamond sawblades and parts thereof
from the People’s Republic of China
(China) covering the period from
November 1, 2014, through October 31,
2015. Commerce is notifying the public
that it is amending the final results of
review with respect to the dumping
margin assigned to Bosun Tools Co.,
Ltd. (Bosun) and the 22 non-selected
respondents that received a separate
rate.

: Applicable November 6, 2021.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION
:
Background
On June 12, 2017, Commerce
published its Final Results in the 2014–
2015 AD administrative review of
diamond sawblades and parts thereof
from China. Commerce calculated a rate
of 6.91 for Bosun and assigned that rate
to the non-selected respondents that
received a separate rate.
1
The Diamond Sawblades
Manufacturers’ Coalition (the petitioner)
appealed Commerce’s Final Results. On
October 23, 2018, the CIT remanded the
Final Results to Commerce to further
clarify or reconsider Commerce’s
conclusion that Bosun acted to the best
of its ability in responding to
Commerce’s requests for information.
2
In its first remand redetermination,
issued in April 2019, Commerce
concluded that Bosun failed to
cooperate to the best of its ability and
applied a rate based entirely on adverse
facts available (AFA) to Bosun;
Commerce also assigned that rate to the
non-selected respondents that received
a separate rate.
3
The CIT sustained the
first remand redetermination, but later
remanded for a second time for further
proceedings in conformity with the
opinion of the Court of Appeals for the
Federal Circuit, which ruled that
Commerce needed to determine whether
there was any basis to disregard the
Bosun-supplied origin information for
certain sales to unaffiliated U.S.
customers during the period of review.
4
In its second remand redetermination,
issued in July 2021, Commerce found
that AFA was appropriate to apply to
only certain of Bosun’s sales to U.S.
customers. Accordingly, Commerce
recalculated Bosun’s margin and
assigned Bosun’s rate to the non-
selected respondents that received a
separate rate.
5
The CIT sustained
Commerce’s final redetermination.
