Apple has accused India of 'copy-pasting' rivals' claims in an antitrust investigation. This was reported by Qazaqyia.kz citing Reuters.
Apple accused the Competition Commission of India (CCI) of 'copy-pasting' rivals' claims in an antitrust investigation. The accusation relates to an antitrust probe into Apple in India. The company claims that the CCI adopted rivals' arguments without alteration and did not verify them.
This situation could impact Apple's business in India. The Indian government has been pursuing policies aimed at limiting the market share of foreign companies. Apple stated that the investigation is unfair and damages the company's reputation.
According to Reuters' exclusive report, Apple in a letter to the CCI said that the investigation team 'copy-pasted' rivals' claims and did not verify their arguments. The company believes this calls into question the impartiality of the investigation.
The Competition Commission of India has not yet officially responded to these allegations. However, this situation could put additional pressure on Apple's operations in India. The company has previously faced disagreements with Indian regulators on several issues.
