Takes Note Of Some CCI Findings Against US E-Tailer Amazon
Prima Facie There's A Case In Future Group's Favour: HC
Taking note of some of the findings of the Competition Commission of India (CCI) against Amazon, the Delhi high court on Wednesday stayed the Amazon Future arbitration before a Singapore tribunal.
A bench of Chief Justice DN Patel and justice Jyo- ti Singh cited certain paragraphs in the CCI order on "suppression of material facts by Amazon to underline that there is a prima fa-cie case in favour of Future Retail (FRL) and Future Coupons (FCPL) and if a stay is not granted, it will cause an irreparable loss to them.
The HC said the balance is also in favor of appellants and further stayed the order passed by a single judge.
The arbitration is going on before a three-member arbitral tribunal over the Future group's Rs 24,500- crore deal with Reliance.
