  • The Competition Commission of India (CCI) has notified the regulations for determining the cost of production.
  • It is aimed at effectively assessing alleged predatory pricing and deep discounting practices in the quick commerce and e-commerce sectors.
  • Predatory pricing occurs when a dominant firm sets prices below the production costs to eliminate competition.
  • Once competitors are driven out, the firm can raise prices.
  • This practice is considered anti-competitive and is explicitly prohibited under Section 4(2)(a)(ii) of the Competition Act, 2002.
