https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=778328 HC dismissed the challenge to the CCI order under Section 26(1), upholding its prima facie direction to the DG to investigate. The court held Section 26(2-A) (inserted by the 2023 Amendment) aims to prevent duplication and expedite disposal but does not create a jurisdictional bar to entertain distinct complaints. CCI may close matters under Sections 26(2)/26(2-A) when issues are the same as earlier decisions, yet need not justify why 26(2-A) is inapplicable if it directs an investigation. No entitlement to a hearing exists at the prima facie stage. en-us Thu, 11 Sep 2025 00:00:00 +0530 Mon, 15 Sep 2025 08:26:12 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=778328 HC dismissed the challenge to the CCI order under Section 26(1), upholding its prima facie direction to the DG to investigate.
