The Competition Commission of India closed Case No. 30 of 2025 after finding no prima facie violation of Sections 3(4) or 4 of the Competition Act in Jindal Stainless' nickel supply arrangements. The ruling clarifies standards for exclusive dealing and market foreclosure under the Act, impacting cross-border supply chain disputes.

The Competition Commission of India ruled that mere dominance in the online ticketing market does not constitute abuse under Section 4 of the Competition Act unless there is evidence of market foreclosure or discriminatory conduct. The decision underscores that competitors must demonstrate anti-competitive effects, not just market share, to establish abuse of dominance.
