Abstract
ABSTRACT The popularity of multi-sided online platforms has risen exponentially in the last decade, and so have the number of competition cases involving such platforms. This paper examines how the Competition Commission of India (CCI) defines the relevant market in its landmark Google decision. It then traces how CCI’s analysis of market definitions has evolved over the time by comparing the Google decision with other cases concerning online platforms that have been decided before and after it. To trace this evolution, it also explores the relevant reports, studies, and proposed amendments to the existing legal framework in India and assesses how these may impact the future analysis of market definitions.
