Dubai's global port operator says India's competition commission is seeking excessive information
New Delhi — Dubai’s global port operator DP World has asked an Indian court to halt an investigation into alleged antitrust violations at the country’s largest container port in Mumbai, saying the regulator is seeking excessive information, a court document shows.
The commission's investigation followed a complaint by Singapore’s PSA International, which alleged that Maersk and DP World businesses created barriers to hinder the growth of PSA’s terminal by colluding on certain charges they levy at Jawaharlal Nehru Port Trust. The commission's investigation unit had on February 21 issued a “requisition notice” to DP World to provide information and documentation for conducting its antitrust investigation, the court filing showed.DP World said the requisition was “far in excess of the scope of investigation”, according to the court filing from February 28.
DP World’s unit, Nhava Sheva International Container Terminal, had previously said it found the commission's decision to order an investigation “arbitrary” and it “would lead to gross discrimination and grave economic harm” on the business.
