Apple Inc. has taken legal action against the Competition Commission of India (CCI) by filing a petition in the Delhi High Court. The tech giant is challenging the amended provisions of the Competition Act that allow the CCI to impose penalties based on a company's global turnover, rather than just its Indian operations. Apple claims this could result in a staggering $38 billion fine. The company argues that the retrospective application of these rules is unconstitutional and disproportionate. Previously, penalties were calculated based on the relevant turnover from the specific product or service under investigation. Apple contends that the new rules unfairly consider global turnover, which could lead to excessive penalties for minor infractions. The court is set to hear the case on December 3, and experts suggest that the outcome could have significant implications for foreign companies operating in India.
