CCI Orders Probe into Asian Paints' Alleged Market Abuse

India's competition watchdog has ordered an investigation into Asian Paints Ltd for allegedly abusing its dominance in the decorative paints market, which has seen a recent rush of business giants enter the space.

The Competition Commission of India (CCI) on Tuesday ordered the probe on a reference filed by Grasim Industries Ltd, the flagship company of the Aditya Birla Group, which entered the decorative paints market under the brand name Birla Opus Paints in February 2024.

CCI said there was a 'first impression case' of India's largest decorative paints company allegedly imposing unfair conditions on its dealers by restraining them from working with competitors like Birla Opus. This "is found to be in the nature of exploitative conduct", CCI said in its order, signed by CCI chairperson Ravneet Kaur and three members.

Cracks are appearing in OpenAI’s dominant facade

THE 21ST-CENTURY tech landscape was built with a winner-takes-all mindset. It started with Microsoft’s Windows monopoly at the end of the 1990s. Since then Alphabet-owned Google has cornered search and Amazon has become the king of e-commerce. Meta, too, has blanketed much of the world with social media—though on November 18th, a judge in Washington, DC, spared it the ignominy of being declared a monopolist.
