We act for our clients in various conduct/ behavioural inquiries before the CCI, the Competition Appellate Tribunal (“COMPAT”) and the Supreme Court. The new Competition Law Act was made necessary with the emergence of various E-commerce portals, websites, multiple public and private aviation fleets, companies investing in the varied innovation and research and development in intellectual property. Merger control, anti – competitive agreements, including cartel enforcement, abuse of dominance, competition advisory, competition audit and compliance have become an essential part of the Competition law practice.
​
The Competition Act, 2002 (the Competition Act) empowers the CCI to scrutinize agreements – both horizontal and vertical, to see whether they result in an appreciable adverse effect on competition in the relevant market in India. We have forayed into this area of law and continue to build our practice. Our team advises numerous domestic and international companies in a number of sectors, on the compatibility of provisions contained in supply and distribution agreements, as well as other exclusive arrangements, cartel investigations, joint ventures etc. for compliance with the provisions of the Competition Act. Our reputation is based on a keen commercial sense of what our clients seek to achieve, the quality of our documentation and our ability to deliver a high value service within tight time frames.
