(CCR)of the antidumping duty
(AD)order on finished carbon steel flanges (flanges) from India. For these final results, Commerce finds that BFN Forgings Private Limited

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background On April 14, 2022, BFN requested that Commerce conduct an expedited CCR of the AD order on flanges from India 1 to find that BFN is the successor-in-interest to Bebitz. 2 On June 6, 2022, Commerce initiated a CCR and preliminarily determined that BFN is the successor-in-interest to Bebitz. 3 In the *Initiation and Preliminary Results,* we provided all interested parties with an opportunity to comment. 4 We received no comments from any interested party. 1 *See Finished Carbon Steel Flanges from India and Italy: Antidumping Duty Orders,* 82 FR 40136 (August 24, 2017) ( *Order* ). 2 *See* BFN's Letter, “Finished Carbon Steel Flanges from India: Request for an Expedited Successor-in-Interest Changed Circumstances Review,” dated April 14, 2022. 3 *See Finished Carbon Steel Flanges from India: Notice of Initiation and Preliminary Results of Changed Circumstances Review,* 87 FR 34251 (June 6, 2022) ( *Initiation and Preliminary Results* ), and accompanying Preliminary Decision Memorandum (PDM). 4 *Id.,* 87 FR at 34252. Scope of the Order The merchandise covered by the *Order* is flanges from India. The merchandise subject to the *Order* is currently classified under subheadings 7307.91.5010 and 7307.91.5050 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS). They may also be entered under HTSUS subheadings 7307.91.5030 and 7307.91.5070. The HTSUS subheadings are provided for convenience and customs purposes; the written description of the scope is dispositive. 5 5 For the full scope language, *see* the *Initiation and Preliminary Results* PDM at 2-3. Final Results of Changed Circumstances Review Because the record contains no information or evidence that calls into question the *Initiation and Preliminary Results,* and because we received no comments from interested parties to the contrary, for the reasons stated in the *Initiation and Preliminary Results,* 6 Commerce finds that BFN is the successor-in-interest to Bebitz. 6 For a complete discussion of the information that BFI provided, including business proprietary information, and Commerce's complete successor-in-interest analysis, *see* the *Initiation and Preliminary Results* PDM. Instructions to U.S. Customs and Border Protection As a result of these final results and consistent with established practice, we find that, as the successor-in-interest to Bebitz, entries of flanges from India produced and/or exported by BFN should be subject to the cash deposit rate previously assigned to Bebitz. Commerce will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection to suspend liquidation of all shipments of subject merchandise produced and/or exported by BFN and entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date of this notice in the **Federal Register** at 0.00 percent, which is the current AD cash deposit rate in effect for subject merchandise produced and/or exported by Bebitz. 7 This cash deposit rate shall remain in effect until further notice. 7 *See Finished Carbon Steel Flanges from India: Final Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review; 2019-2020,* 87 FR 13703, 13704 (March 10, 2020).
