Description

In the last few years, the Competition Commission of India has been extremely assertive in its enforcement outlook, especially in the digital markets. Additionally, the relevance of competition law in India continues to grow in importance as investment activity increases. This comprehensive, practical guide outlines the highly distinctive manner in which competition law is interpreted in this major global market.

Highlighting the key aspects of Indian competition law, a leading competition law practitioner describes elements of Indian competition law encompassing the following:

  • the dual regulatory-judicial nature of the Competition Commission;

  • investigatory powers of the Commission’s Director General;

  • mandated business conduct policies (e.g., active risk management procedures);

  • availability of sanctions, remedies, and private actions;

  • cartels and leniency programmes;

  • extraterritorial application of the Competition Commission;

  • merger review;

  • pricing and non-pricing abuse;

  • approach in digital markets;

  • appeal process;

  • fines – companies, directors and officers;

  • fines for non-cooperation or furnishing false information; and

  • liability of state-owned enterprises.

Analysis of numerous leading cases decided by the Indian competition authorities enhances the book’s practical value.

This comprehensive guide provides an incomparable overview of practice in a key jurisdiction that is increasingly becoming one of the most important in the international recognition and enforcement of competition law. As a guide to the ‘landscape’ of competition law in India, it has no peers. The book will be of inestimable value to professionals in this area of legal practice, whether in law firms, corporations, academia, government or the judiciary, as well as to investors, economists and business executives.
