On Friday (15th March): The Competition Commission of India (CCI) has launched an inquiry into Google’s User Choice Billing System, suspecting abuse of market dominance. Google’s fee structure may disproportionately affect app developers, potentially violating sections 4(2)(a), 4(2)(b), and 4(2)(c) of the Competition Act. This action follows allegations from industry bodies and companies regarding unfair pricing practices and lack of competition.
