Competition Law & Policy

The underlying idea of competition is a scenario in which people or organisations compete with one other for something that not everyone can have. Consumers benefit greatly from strong market competition. This is due to two factors: first, competition forces enterprises to be inventive, allowing them to function more effectively; and second, competition provides customers with a wider range of items at cheaper prices.

But there are many prohibited activities are taking place in the market that can adversely affect the healthy competition such as entering into Anti-Competitive Agreements, Abuse of Dominant Position in the market, entering in to merger and acquisitions, where such combination causes or is likely to cause an appreciable adverse effect on competition within the relevant market in India.
