IndiGo may face CCI enquiry over alleged abuse of market dominance amid flight cancellations: Report

India’s antitrust regulator, the Competition Commission of India (CCI), may launch an inquiry against the country’s largest airline, IndiGo, to determine any violation of antitrust rules, particularly those related to the abuse of market dominance to restrict services or impose unfair conditions on passengers, according to a report by The Economic Times, citing a senior government official.

There is a “strong case” for the agency to initiate a probe, the official told ET, while highlighting that the aviation regulator, the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA), will continue to lead the government’s inquiry into the IndiGo crisis.
