|June 07, 2025
ADITYA Birla Group's paint venture - Birla Opus - has reportedly filed an antitrust complaint against market leader Asian Paints, alleging abuse of market dominance.
Birla Opus, which comes under Grasim Ltd, claims Asian Paints has been forcing paint retailers to avoid stocking Birla Opus products.
As per Reuters, the confidential complaint submitted by Birla Opus to the Competition Commission of India (CCI) has been under review in recent weeks. The CCI is yet to decide if the complaint holds merit and needs a broader probe by its investigations unit, or should be dismissed.
