India’s antitrust body has recalled its investigation report into competition law breaches by e-commerce giant Walmart’s Flipkart, a document shows, the second such move after a report on Apple was revoked in August.<\/p>\n

China’s Xiaomi<\/a> had complained to the Competition Commission of India (CCI<\/a>) that the report – which found Flipkart, some of its sellers, and smartphone players in violation of competition laws – contained commercial secrets that should have been redacted, Reuters reported in September.<\/p>\n

According to two sources and an internal CCI document dated October 1 seen by Reuters on Tuesday, the watchdog has told recipients of the Flipkart<\/a> report to destroy it and give an undertaking to that effect to avoid further distribution.<\/p>\n

Xiaomi argued the report contained its model-wise sales, which are sensitive information.<\/p>\n

The CCI document noted some data and information was “inadvertently” included in the report and provided the parties involved with a new report, though it did not spell out what changes it was making.<\/p>\n

Xiaomi declined to comment, while the CCI and Flipkart did not respond to Reuters’ queries.<\/p>\n

In August, the CCI recalled an antitrust report on Apple after the company complained commercial secrets were disclosed to some of the parties involved.<\/p>\n

In a lengthy investigation that started in 2020, the CCI found Flipkart, as well as e-commerce rival Amazon, gave preference to select sellers and prioritised certain listings, and also colluded with companies like Xiaomi, Samsung and Vivo to launch phones exclusively on their websites.<\/p>\n

Much of the investigation process, however, remains on hold after Vivo<\/a> and some online sellers of the two e-commerce companies challenged their inclusion in the probe and obtained court injunctions.<\/p>\n
