SC to hear Google’s plea against CCI fine of Rs 1,337.76 crore on April 30

The Supreme Court on Monday said that it would start hearing from April 30 Google’s appeal against the order of the National Company Law Appellate Tribunal (NCLAT) upholding a Rs 1,337.76 crore penalty by the Competition Commission of India (CCI) for anti-trust violations.

The hearing has now been pushed because of the Constitution benches.

Senior advocate Harish Salve, appearing for Google and Additional Solicitor-General Venkatraman appearing for CCI said it will take both sides four days to argue the case as there are new points to be raised. Chief Justice of India (CJI) DY Chandrachud orally indicated that the case will be listed on April 30.
