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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: India, till 2002, did not have a law dealing specifically with anti-trust issues. It was in this context that a separate law dealing with competition and antitrust issues was considered necessary and the Competition Act, 2002, was passed. Enacted to fulfil India's obligations under the WTO agreements, the Act replaced the then existing Monopolies and Restrictive Trade Practices Act, 1969 (MRTP Act) which was considered inadequate and archaic for the purpose of meeting the objectives of competition policy. This substantially revised edition discusses the Competition Act, 2002, and subsequent amendments to it, in 2007 and 2009. Following the 2007 amendment, the Competition Commission became a market regulator and the Competition Appellate Tribunal was established. The 2009 amendment provided for a mechanism to dispose of the cases pending before the MRTP Commission. The book makes a detailed study of key issues including anti-competitive agreements, abuse of dominant position, and combinations (acquisitions and mergers). It further analyses the roles of authorities such as the Competition Commission of India, the Director-General, and the Competition Appellate Tribunal in enforcing the provisions of the Act. The book also undertakes a comparative study of competition law in the US, UK, and EU with emphasis on important judgments.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although relatively young in terms of its lifespan as a regulator, the Competition Commission of India (established by the Competition Act of 2002 but came into existence in 2009) has been extremely assertive in its enforcement outlook, and competition law in India continues to grow in importance as inward investment increases. This comprehensive, practical guide outlines the highly distinctive manner in which competition law is interpreted in this major global market. Highlighting differences from EU practice, the author – a leading Indian competition law practitioner – describes elements of practice and procedures in 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; • international coordination; • 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 poised to become increasingly important in the international recognition and enforcement of competition law.
