The CCI took up the matter against the tire company on 8 178.8.2018 Rs 1 crore was fined and they were asked to stop the unfair business practices.

A bench headed by Justice Sanjiv Khanna issued a notice for the CCI and tagged the CCI appeal with the MRF appeal. In April last year, the Supreme Court was hearing the CCII’s order refusing to stay the appellate court.

NCLAT has directed the CCI to pass a fresh order after tire manufacturers appealed for a fresh review of miscalculations and omissions and a review of penalties to save the domestic tire industry. The appellate court said that since the purpose of the competition law is to focus on the development of the national economy, the regulator must also consider promoting the domestic industry. CCI Apollo Tires was fined Rs 425.53 crore, MRF Ltd Rs 622.09 crore, CEAT Ltd Rs 252.16 crore, JK Tires Rs 309.95 crore and Birla Tires Rs 178.33 crore.
