Apple's Request to Halt Antitrust Report Denied by Indian Regulators

India's antitrust regulators have declined to grant Apple's request for a temporary hold on a report that alleges app developers are compelled to adhere to unfair terms to be on the App Store. In 2021, the Competition Commission of India (CCI) began its investigation following a company from a group called 'Together We Fight Society,' (TWFS) regarding App Store fees and rules. In July 2024, the CCI announced that it had concluded that Apple has 'significant influence' over digital products and services. Four months later, the CCI has decided to continue the investigation, citing that it still believes Apple abuses its dominant position in the App Store market.
