Xiaomi wants India’s competition watchdog to recall report on Flipkart over sensitive data
Xiaomi says an investigation report on Flipkart contains sensitive business data on the smartphone firm that was not redacted, sources say
Any recall of the Competition Commission of India report could delay its antitrust investigation, which began in 2021. In a rare move in August, the commission recalled an antitrust report on Apple after the company similarly complained commercial secrets were disclosed.
Xiaomi has told the commission in an application the investigation report on Flipkart contains sensitive business data on the smartphone company which was supposed to be redacted when the document was shared with parties in the case, said the two sources familiar with the matter.
One of Xiaomi’s concerns with the Flipkart report is that it contains its model-wise sales, which is sensitive information, one of the sources said.
Xiaomi, Flipkart and the competition watchdog did not immediately respond to Reuters queries.
