India violet pigment: Navpad’s final CVD deposit is 2.81%

Commerce’s final 2023 review sets a 2.81% CVD rate for Navpad Pigments Private Limited’s covered Indian carbazole violet pigment-23. It applies to new deposits on entries for consumption or warehouse withdrawals from 26 October 2026.

What changed

Commerce changed Navpad’s preliminary calculation and will assess its covered 2023 entries at 2.81%. The review for Sudarshan Chemical Industries was rescinded for lack of reviewable suspended entries; that does not revoke the order. Other firms retain their applicable prior deposit rates.

Historical assessment instructions will issue no earlier than 35 days after publication, subject to court safeguards.

Three checks for import teams

  • Match the exact producer/exporter and CVP-23 scope in case C-533-839 before using Navpad’s rate.
  • Separate new deposits from the 2023 assessment and from Sudarshan’s rescinded review.
  • Reconcile the broker’s instructions and required duty-reimbursement certificate before historical entries are liquidated.
