SC to hear Google plea against NCLAT order

New Delhi: The Supreme Court will hear a plea filed by Google against the National Company Law Appellate Tribunal (NCLAT) order that upheld the penalty of Rs1,337.76 crore imposed by the Competition Commission of India (CCI), in January 2024.

A bench comprising Chief Justice of India (CJI) DY Chandrachud and Justices JB Pardiwala and Manoj Misra assured on Monday that they will list the case in the last week of January 2024.

“I will ensure that no other cases are listed then, so that the matter is over in a couple of days,” the CJI said. The CCI imposed a penalty of Rs1,337.76 crore on Google for allegedly abusing its dominant position in multiple markets in the Android Mobile device ecosystem.
