Apple challenges India's antitrust penalty law in Delhi High Court

Business Nov 29, 2025

Apple is taking India to court over a new rule that lets authorities fine companies based on their global revenue—not just what they earn in India.
This move follows an investigation into Apple's app store policies, which some say are unfair to developers.

Why does it matter?

If India wins this case, it could set a big precedent for how global tech giants are regulated here.
Supporters of the new law believe it's needed to keep digital monopolies in check and make sure big companies play fair.
Legal experts think Apple faces an uphill battle, since the law clearly allows for penalties based on worldwide sales.
