The Competition Commission of India orders Fresh probe against DLF

New Delhi: The Competition Commission of India has ordered a fresh probe against realty major DLF for allegedly imposing unfair and unreasonable conditions on apartment buyers at one of its projects in Gurgaon. DLF is already under the scanner of the fair trade watchdog in other cases of anti competitive practices.

Finding prima facie evidence of violating fair trade norms, the Competition Commission of India (CCI) has now ordered probe into DLF’s New Town Heights residential project, in Gurgaon, Haryana. The allegations relate to certain anti competitive clauses in the apartment buyer’s agreement. According to the Commission, clauses of the agreement referred to in the current matter are identical to ones entered into by DLF in other abuse of dominance cases that are already being probed.
