"Indian Startups Demand Action Against Google's Removal of Local Apps from Play Store"

Indian startups have urged the country's antitrust watchdog to compel Google to restore over 100 apps removed for policy violations, citing anti-competitive behavior. The Alliance of Digital India Foundation (ADIF) has accused Google of making a "brazen move" and causing "irreparable harm to the entire market." This escalation comes amid a dispute over Google's policy of charging a service fee for in-app payments made through methods other than its own. India's IT minister and startup executives have expressed concern and are seeking intervention to ensure the reinstatement of the apps.

Indian startups challenge Google's in-app billing system in court.

A group of Indian startups has filed a legal complaint asking the Delhi High Court to suspend Google's new in-app billing fee system until the country's antitrust body investigates the U.S. firm for alleged non-compliance with its directives. The Alliance of Digital India Foundation argues that the antitrust body is yet to hear its complaint promptly even as Google's April 26 implementation date of the so-called User Choice Billing system (UCB) is nearing. The court is likely to hear the plea later this week.
