Price parallelism alone cannot establish a cartel u/s 3(3)(a) of the Competition Act, 2002. Evidence of parallel pricing must be supplemented with "plus factors" demonstrating conscious conduct rather than independent business decisions. In the present case, the limited evidence of exchange of calls between sugar mills and the industry association is insufficient to establish a contravention.
