Competition law, a cornerstone of fair and free markets, plays a pivotal role in promoting transparency, preventing anti-competitive practices, and ensuring consumer welfare.
In India, the Competition Act, 2002 was enacted to replace the Monopolies and Restrictive Trade Practices (MRTP) Act, 1969. Its introduction marked a significant shift in the legal framework to address the challenges of a liberalized economy.
