What is the issue faced by CCI currently?<\/b><\/h5>\n

According to the Competition Act, <\/span>the CCI shall consist of a Chairperson and not less than two and not more than six other Members to be appointed by the Central Government.<\/span><\/p>\n

Moreover, according to existing rules, <\/span>in addition to the chairperson, the CCI needs two members to have a sufficient quorum to take key decisions.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, currently, CCI has only two whole-time members which include an acting chairperson.<\/span><\/p>\n

Due to this, the minimum number of members required for adjudication and approving mergers and acquisitions(M&As) has been reduced.<\/span><\/p>\n

Hence, with these vacancies, CCI\u2019s decisions could take longer considering that the search for a new chairperson is still on.<\/span><\/p>\n

Note:<\/b> M&A approvals by CCI are key for foreign direct investment inflows and unless urgent appointments are made, such approvals may remain on hold.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
