Google reportedly paid Rs 1,338 crore penalty to CCI in Android case

Google has paid the entire Rs 1,338 crore penalty imposed on the tech giant by the Competition Commission of India (CCI) in the Android case, a report has said.

Citing reliable sources, a report by news agency IANS said on Tuesday (May 2) that the full penalty amount has been deposited in the Consolidated Fund of India, within the 30-day deadline given by the National Company Law Appellate Tribunal (NCLAT) in its order.

The market regulator imposed the fine on Google in October 2022 for exploiting its dominant position in the Android market.
