Abstract

ABSTRACT This study studies the effect and the content of competition law engaged in the app-based ride- sharing industry. This has been done primarily with the help of critically analysing case law across three jurisdictions adjudicated by competition regulatory authorities with respect to the ride sharing industry. The three jurisdictions chosen for the study are India, Singapore, and the European Union in order to analyze a variety of the perspectives of the competition regulatory authorities. The primary objective of the study is to understand the meaning of the term market definition and how competition regulatory authorities have delineated the relevant market with respect to this industry since it is a part of the digital economy and is relatively new. Through this study, hurdles to delineating a relevant market were analyzed through the case law as well as understanding why a common market definition has not been framed across jurisdictions as well as within the same jurisdiction, as seen in the case of India.

拼车行业竞争法案例的比较视角:来自新加坡、欧盟和印度的反思

摘要本文研究了基于应用程序的拼车行业竞争法的作用和内容。这主要是通过批判性地分析竞争监管机构就拼车行业裁决的三个司法管辖区的判例法来完成的。本研究选择了印度、新加坡和欧盟三个司法管辖区，以分析竞争监管当局的各种观点。本研究的主要目的是了解术语“市场定义”的含义，以及竞争监管机构如何划定相关市场，因为它是数字经济的一部分，并且相对较新。通过这项研究，通过判例法分析了划定相关市场的障碍，并理解了为什么没有跨司法管辖区以及在同一司法管辖区内制定共同的市场定义，如在印度的案例中所见。
