Google asks India's top court to quash Android antitrust directives: Report

NEW DELHI : Google has urged India's Supreme Court to quash antitrust directives against it for abuse of the Android market, two sources said, as its presses its legal battle against the competition watchdog in one of its most important markets.

It ordered Google to remove restrictions imposed on device makers, including related to the pre-installation of apps, and fined the US firm US$163 million, which it paid. The tribunal said CCI's findings of Google's anti-competitive conduct were correct, but gave Google some relief by quashing some of the directives that forced it to alter its business model.

Google is also arguing in its filing made on Monday that it has not abused its market position and should not be been liable to pay a penalty, the source added.
