of <h1>Karnataka HC Dismisses Petition Against CCI Jurisdiction Under Competition Act 2002, Deems It Misconceived.</h1> The Karnataka HC dismissed the petition filed by the Karnataka Film Chamber of Commerce and others seeking to prohibit the Competition Commission of India ... Seeking a writ of prohibition against Competition Commission of India from exercising its jurisdiction under Competition Act, 2002 - vires of several Sections of the Act are under challenge before the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India, but no orders have been passed as on date - HELD THAT:- Undisputed fact is, the Act is in force as on date. Hence, no writ of prohibition can be issued against Statutory Commission from exercising its jurisdiction. Hence, petition is misconceived and it is accordingly dismissed. The Karnataka High Court, presided over by Justice P.S. Dinesh Kumar, addressed a petition filed by the Karnataka Film Chamber of Commerce and associated parties. The petitioners sought a writ of prohibition to prevent the Competition Commission of India from exercising its jurisdiction under the Competition Act, 2002. The petitioners argued that the constitutionality of several sections of the Act is currently under challenge before the Supreme Court of India, with no orders issued to date. However, the court noted that the Act remains in force. Consequently, the court held that 'no writ of prohibition can be issued against a Statutory Commission from exercising its jurisdiction' while the Act is active. The petition was deemed misconceived and dismissed without costs.
