CCI seeks Supreme Court hearing to expedite Amazon, Flipkart cases

India's antitrust body, the Competition Commission of India (CCI), has urged the Supreme Court to hear the legal challenges against its investigation of Amazon and Flipkart filed by Samsung, Vivo, and other vendors. The CCI believes that these challenges, filed in various high courts, are an attempt to disrupt the probe. The investigation alleges that Amazon and Flipkart violated antitrust laws by favoring certain sellers on their platforms, while smartphone companies like Samsung and Vivo colluded with the e-commerce giants for exclusive online launches. The outcome of this case could have significant implications for the growing e-commerce market in India.
