US government now expects Big Tech to "keep receiving" India's support over the long term

On Friday, India's companies law court issued what has been seen as a favourable verdict on Google's appeal against a ₹936.44 crore fine imposed by the competition commission in 2022. The fine—for allegedly stifling innovation and promoting self-preferencing in the market—was slashed by nearly three-fourths.
