The Delhi High Court denied InterDigital Technology’s request to access licensing agreements between Oppo, RealMe, and OnePlus and two Standard Essential Patent licensors. Both sides were directed to submit certain licensing agreements with chipset supplier Qualcomm. The main suit will be heard on July 3, with a decision expected by the end of 2024.
The Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission fined Flipkart, OnePlus, and a retailer Rs 30,000 for selling a used phone as new. They were also ordered to refund the complainant and pay additional compensation for unfair trade practices and negligence. The Commission criticized their indifference towards customer grievances and instructed them to cease such practices.
