    State-Wise Analysis of Indian Competition Law Cases and Median Time Taken to Dispose a Case
    (National Law School of India University, 2019) Jain, Sumit
    The dissertation does a quantitative analysis of the cases registered in CCI from 20th May 2009 (inception) to 6th November, 2018. Some of the key pointers are the number of informants in each case, state-wise analysis, relevant sector, time taken to dispose a case and complete DG investigation, presence of dissenting opinion, concurrence between DG and CCI on contravention among others. The aim of the dissertation is to back the intuitive feeling of delay in case laws with evidence backed approach in order to suggest recommendations to the nodal body, i.e. the CCI. A qualitative study of the investigation orders, penalty as well as non-penalty, has also been done in order to further the claim. The findings of the dissertation can be found in Chapter 13, primary among them being real estate sector dominating the largest chunk of the cases. Equally important is the gap between the parameter set by the Supreme Court to complete the investigation and the actual time taken by the DG. Few recommendations include setting up of another office of CCI in Maharashtra as per the relevant provisions of the Act, given that a substantial number of cases come from the state.
