The Kerala High Court has dismissed JioStar’s challenge to the CCI investigation into alleged preferential discounts to KCCL. The Court directed CCI to first rule on its own jurisdiction and conclude the process within eight weeks.
The Supreme Court denied pleas from Vodafone Idea, Bharti Airtel, and Tata Teleservices for a waiver of Adjusted Gross Revenue dues. Vodafone Idea faces severe financial pressure, warning it may cease operations by FY26 without government aid. Airtel sought relief from interest and penalties, emphasizing the ruling’s financial burden on the telecom sector.
