Google’s user choice billing system non-compliant with CCI’s remedies: ADIF

Under the ‘User Choice billing system’ proposed by Google, app developers need to pay 11/26% commission to Google, thus making it non-compliant with CCI’s remedy, the Alliance of Digital India Foundation (ADIF) said in a detailed note on Thursday elaborating on the non-compliance of the two CCI orders by Google.

It stated that the user choice billing system is not in line with the CCI’s directives of ‘not imposing any condition (including price related condition) on app developers, which is unfair, unreasonable, discriminatory or disproportionate to the services provided.’
