Need for digital competition law: FHRAI

FHRAI has recommended various measures regarding the competition in digital markets and the need for digital competition law in India to the Committee on Digital Competition Law, Ministry of Corporate Affairs on 24 March 2023. Federation suggested, “The abuse of the dominant position in the digital market is becoming more widespread than in traditional marketplaces. One of the numerous variables contributing to the rise in abuse of the dominant position in the digital market is the lack of entry restrictions. Over a period, the Online Travel Aggregators (OTAs) and Food Service Aggregators (FSAs) have become very big and dominant in the market and have virtually captured the entire market. They are causing great damage to the hotels and restaurants and also to the customers as they capture the entire market.”
