Airport Operator Cleared of Market Abuse Allegations After Thorough Competitive Practices Investigation Under Section 4

April 10, 2025

Case Laws     Law of Competition     CCI

CCI analyzed allegations of abuse of dominant position by an airport operator under Section 4 of the Competition Act. After comprehensive review, the Commission found no prima facie evidence of monopolistic practices or market exclusion. The investigation concluded that contract awards for parking and lounge services were conducted through competitive bidding processes with multiple independent participants. The Commission determined that the allegations of selective contracting and market restriction were unsubstantiated. Consequently, the case was closed under Section 26(2), rejecting all claims of anti-competitive conduct and denying any relief sought by the informant.
