NCLAT sets aside CCI's Rs 301.6-cr penalty on Grasim Industries, directs fresh hearing

The appellate tribunal NCLAT has overturned a Rs 301.6-crore penalty against Grasim Industries. The fair trade regulator CCI must now hear the Aditya Birla Group firm again. NCLAT found Grasim was not given a chance to present arguments after the CCI differed from its probe unit's findings. The case concerns alleged dominance in the viscose staple fibre market.
