"All Our Practices In Compliance With Competition Laws": Zomato

Zomato on Tuesday said it is in compliance with competition laws of the country

Food delivery app Zomato on Tuesday said it is in compliance with competition laws of the country - a position it will explain to the anti-monopoly authority Competition Commission of India (CCI) during the probe on the preferential listing of restaurants.

CCI had on Monday ordered a detailed probe against Zomato and rival Swiggy, for alleged unfair business practices with respect to their dealings with restaurant partners.

"In their order, the Commission has mentioned that it has prima facie not found concerns with respect to our independence on levy of commissions or alleged bundling of services," Zomato said in a stock exchange filing.

However, CCI in the order stated that "it would want to investigate aspects such as the preferential listing of restaurant partners and pricing parity across platforms, etc".
