(The ITA has determined that subject merchandise from mandatory respondent Guang Ya Group/New Zhongya/Xinya benefitted from export subsidies and is therefore reducing the estimated AD duty rate for Guang Ya Group/New Zhongya/Xinya for the export subsidy portion of the rate determined in the companion preliminary countervailing duty determination.)
