CCI rejects plea accusing Google of sharing contact data with Truecaller

The Competition Commission of India (CCI) has dismissed a plea filed against tech giant Google which alleged that the tech giant abused its dominant position to favour Truecaller in the market.

The anti-trust regulator said that it found no evidence of violation of competition law in the case.

Rejecting the plea, the CCI in its order said, “Given the facts and circumstances of the present case, the Commission finds that no prima facie case of contravention of the provisions of Section 4 of the Act is made out against Google in the instant matter.”
