Bid-rigging was proved by direct and circumstantial email evidence showing coordinated bidding, allocation of shares, tender distribution, price discussions, bid withdrawal directions and continued receipt of cartel communications without dissociation; contravention under Sections 3(1) and 3(3)(a) to (d) was therefore affirmed. Once cartel conduct was established, the presumption of appreciable adverse effect on competition applied and was not rebutted; reliance on Rajasthan Cylinder was distinguished.

Challenges based on vacancy in composition and denial of cross-examination failed, and both appeals were dismissed.
