CCI avoiding suo motu probes to prevent conflict of interest

CCI avoiding suo motu probes to prevent conflict of interest New Delhi: Competition Commission is avoiding taking up suo motu cases unless nobody is willing to come forward, as there is a conflict of interest in terms of establishing and also adjudicating such cases, the regulator informed a Parliamentary panel. The watchdog has the mandate to curb unfair business practices, as well as foster fair competition, across sectors. The Committee on Subordinate Legislation of the Rajya Sabha that examined various regulations and guidelines of the Competition Commission of India (CCI) flagged the issue of decline in suo motu cases. During the committee's meeting on May 19, CCI Chairperson Ravneet Kaur told the panel members that suo motu cases were more frequent during the initial years due to limited public awareness regarding competition law. "Therefore, they have now avoided taking up a matter suo moto unless nobody else is willing to come forward. Also, the Commission now exercises restraint in sectors where sectoral regulators exist," the regulator said. The watchdog's submissions are part of the committee's report tabled in Parliament this week. "The CCI further informed that out of 1,375 anti-trust cases received till date, 1,237 had been disposed of," the report said.

A bench of Chief Justice Surya Kant and Justices Joymalya Bagchi and V Mohana agreed to list the matter after it was mentioned before the court. Senior advocate Gopal Sankaranarayanan, seeking an urgent hearing, told the bench, "Police are using excessive force against the students," and added, "The court stands between us and the police." Urging the Supreme Court to take up the matter, Sankaranarayanan said there was urgency as such incidents were happening on a daily basis. He told the bench that two separate petitions had been filed in connection with the violence during students' protests across the country and that both had been numbered by the court registry. The Chief Justice then said the pleas would be listed for hearing on July 27.

Mumbai, Market regulator Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) has clarified that listed debt entities taking over outstanding unlisted non-convertible debentures (NCDs) as part of a corporate restructuring or business transfer cannot avoid mandatory listing requirements merely because no fresh debentures have been issued. The clarification came through an interpretive letter issued in response to an informal guidance request from debt-listed company Ananya Finance for Inclusive Growth Private Limited, which sought regulatory clarity after assuming liabilities of its wholly owned subsidiary, Prayas Financial Services Private Limited, under a Business Transfer Agreement. According to the company, the agreement executed on February 28, 2026, transferred all assets and liabilities of Prayas to Ananya Finance, including outstanding unsecured and unlisted NCDs issued in July 2024.
