Indian app makers ask NCLAT to reject stay on Google’s CCI appeal

Indian app makers and internet platforms said that the National Company Law Appellate Tribunal (NCLAT) should not grant a stay on an appeal raised by Google against the Competition Commission of India’s (CCI) judgment.

 

Google had earlier approached the appellate tribunal to appeal the CCI decision to penalise the tech giant Rs 1,338 crore for abusing its dominant position in multiple markets in the Android mobile device ecosystem.

 

Rohan Verma, CEO and ED, MapmyIndia, said that CCI’s rulings must be strongly enforced in letter and spirit. According to him, Google has prevented very critical, life-saving benefits of Indian apps such as MapmyIndia Mappls to reach widely.

 

He further said, “The government and Parliament, which along with CCI have taken very laudable steps, must implement legislations, rulings and enforcement actions to ensure Big Tech is held accountable. Yet, because Google has forced preloading of its Google Maps app which doesn’t provide this feature, Indians at large don't know and benefit from this.”
