NEW DELHI, OCT 08, 2024: THE Competition Commission of India, in association with NALSAR University of Law, Hyderabad, successfully organized a Regional Workshop on Competition Law at the NALSAR Campus in Hyderabad yesterday.

Prof. Srikrishna Deva Rao, Vice Chancellor NALSAR delivered the inaugural address.

The second session delved into cartel investigation and enforcement, with special emphasis on the hub-and-spoke model, where coordination between competitors is facilitated by a central entity.
