Fair trade watchdog CCI is assessing model concession agreements in infrastructure and public service delivery segments to mitigate possible competition issues.
Competition Commission of India (CCI) Chairperson Ashok Kumar Gupta on Thursday said the regulator has engaged with Niti Aayog in the past one year for competition assessment of model concession agreements in infrastructure and public service delivery sectors such as railways, airports and national highways.
“The intention is to mitigate competition concerns in structuring, granting and implementing concession agreements which would help in pre-empting competition intervention later,” he said.
He was speaking at a virtual event to commemorate the 12th annual day of the CCI.
