The National Company Law Appellate Tribunal will decide on May 13 whether to hear an appeal by Meta Platforms against the Competition Commission of India’s ban on its messaging platform WhatsApp’s data-sharing practices before or after new digital personal data protection rules are enforced.
A bench led by appellate tribunal chairperson Justice Ashok Bhushan said Monday it will examine whether there is an overlap between the CCI’s jurisdiction and the forthcoming data protection framework.
