CCI’s M&A Regulations
The Competition Commission of India (CCI) has reduced the average merger clearance time to 16 days, demonstrating enhanced efficiency in its regulatory processes. The Green Channel Scheme, introduced in 2019, facilitates automatic approvals for M&A deals without market overlaps. Pre-filing consultations improve filing accuracy and transparency. The Competition Amendment Act 2023 introduced a deal value threshold to regulate high-value digital transactions. While these measures streamline M&A approvals and support business growth, challenges in handling complex digital market filings persist. CCI’s reforms aim to balance regulatory scrutiny with promoting competitive, fair market practices.
