Applicability of Deal Value Threshold in Share Swap Transactions in India
Abstract
The Competition Commission of India (“CCI”) has embarked on a transformative journey to enhance its merger control framework, with pivotal changes taking effect on 10 September 2024. These reforms arise from the Competition (Amendment) Act, 2023, which aims to modernize India's competition law in response to the dynamic nature of global markets and the increasing complexity of business transactions. Accompanying these legislative changes are the Competition Commission of India (Combinations) Regulations, 2024 and the Competition (Criteria for Exemption of Combinations) Rules, 2024, which collectively introduce a more nuanced approach to merger regulation.
