NEW DELHI: In a fresh twist to the ongoing CCI, Android ruling case, tech giant Google plans to move the Supreme Court to appeal against the NCLAT order.
This is something unusual for any company and particularly Google who decides to appeal to the higher court despite depositing the entire penalty of Rs 1,337.76 crore imposed by the CCI in the Android case.
The company has deposited the full amount in the Consolidated Fund of India abiding by the National Company Law Appellate Tribunal (NCLAT) deadline, major national dailies reported on May 4.
In late March, NCLAT upheld the Rs 1,337.76 crore penalty imposed on Google by the CCI for abuse of its dominant position in the Android devices market.
However, despite paying the penalty, Google is planning to move the Supreme Court to appeal against the NCLAT order.
