Abstract

Competition has changed a lot over the years. There are now more consumers and more companies in the market. To prevent unfair practices and agreements, the Competition Commission of India has taken steps. The Competition Act 2002 has rules for managing competition, especially when businesses or people work together. According to the Competition Act 2002, the concept of "combination" refers to the acquisition of control, shares, voting rights, assets, mergers, or amalgamations between enterprises. The regulation of combinations is a critical aspect of ensuring fair market practices and preventing anti-competitive behaviour. This paper provides a comprehensive analysis of the regulatory framework and legal case studies surrounding combinations in a national and an international perspective.
