The product covered by this order is ceramic tile from India. For a complete description of the scope of this order, see the appendix to this notice. Countervailing Duty Order Based on the above-referenced affirmative final determination by the ITC that an industry in the United States is threatened with material injury by reason of imports of such merchandise from India, and, in accordance with sections 705(c)(2) of the Act, Commerce is issuing this countervailing duty order. See ITC Notification Letter. According to section 706(b)(2) of the Act, countervailing duties shall be assessed on subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the date of publication of the ITC's notice of final determination if that determination is based upon the threat of material injury, other than threat of material injury as described in section 706(b)(l) of the Act. Section 706(b)(l) of the Act states, ``{i{time} f the Commission, in its final determination under section 705(b), finds material injury or threat of material injury which, but for the suspension of liquidation under section 703(d)(2), would have led to a finding of material injury, then entries of the merchandise subject to the countervailing duty order, the liquidation of which has been suspended under section 703(d)(2), shall be subject to the imposition of countervailing duties under section 701(a).'' In addition, section 706(b)(2) of the Act requires Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to refund any cash deposits of estimated countervailing duties posted before the date of publication of the ITC's final affirmative determination, if the ITC's final determination is based on threat other than the threat described in section 706(b)(1) of the Act. The ITC's final determination with regard to imports of ceramic tile from India is based on the threat of material injury and is not accompanied by a finding that injury would have resulted but for the imposition of suspension of liquidation of entries since the publication of Commerce's Preliminary Determination in the Federal Register, section 706(b)(2) of the Act applies. As such, Commerce will instruct CBP to terminate the suspension of liquidation of entries of ceramic tile from India entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption prior to the publication of the ITC's notice of final determination in the Federal Register. Further, Commerce will also instruct CBP to refund any cash deposit with respect to entries of ceramic tile from India entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption before the date of publication of the ITC's notice of final determination in the Federal Register. See Ceramic Tile from India: Preliminary Affirmative Countervailing Duty Determination, Preliminary Affirmative Critical Circumstances Determination, in Part, and Alignment of Final Determination With the Final Antidumping Duty Determination, 89 FR 79245 (September 27, 2024) (Preliminary Determination). See ITC Final Report at 34, Fn 217. Critical Circumstances Having made a determination that an industry in the United States is threatened with material injury by reason of imports of ceramic tile from India, the ITC did not reach the issue of critical circumstances regarding subject imports from India. See Ceramic Tile from India, Investigation No. 701-TA-720 (Final), dated June 9, 2025 (ITC Final Report). Suspension of Liquidation and Cash Deposits In accordance with section 706 of the Act, we will direct CBP to suspend liquidation of entries of ceramic tile from India effective on the date of publication of the ITC's notice of final determination in the Federal Register. We will also direct CBP to assess, upon further instruction by Commerce, pursuant to section 706(a)(l) of the Act, countervailing duties for each entry of the subject merchandise in an amount based on the net countervailable subsidy rates for the subject merchandise. These instructions suspending liquidation will remain in effect until further notice. Commerce also intends, pursuant to section 706(a)(1) of the Act, to instruct CBP to require cash deposits equal to the amounts as indicated below. Accordingly, effective on the date of publication of the ITC's final affirmative injury determination in the Federal Register, CBP will require, at the same time as importers would normally deposit estimated customs duties on the subject merchandise, a cash deposit for each entry of subject merchandise equal to the subsidy rates listed below. The all-others rates apply to all producers or exporters not specifically listed below, as appropriate. See section 706(a)(3) of the Act. Estimated Countervailable Subsidy Rates The estimated countervailable subsidy rates are as follows: Subsidy rate Company (percent ad valorem) Antiqa Minerals 3.45 Win-Tel Ceramics Private Limited 3.06 All Others 3.18 Establishment of the Annual Inquiry Service Lists Commerce found Win-Tel Ceramics Private Limited to be cross- owned with Theos Tiles LLP. See Preliminary Results PDM at 14-15, unchanged in Final Determination. On September 20, 2021, Commerce published the final rule titled ``Regulations to Improve Administration and Enforcement of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Laws'' in the Federal Register.
