印度水泥巨人串通多年 来调节价格 引发了一场大型反托拉斯探测 Indian cement giants colluded for years to fix prices, triggering a major antitrust probe.

2018年,印度的ONGC发现三家大型水泥公司Dalmia Cement(Bharat)、Shree Digvijay和印度水泥公司(India Cements)每吨7 000卢比的投标结果相同,这三家公司是一家为期五年的反托拉斯探险公司。 In 2018, India’s ONGC detected identical 7,000-rupee-per-tonne bids from three major cement firms—Dalmia Cement (Bharat), Shree Digvijay, and India Cements—sparking a five-year antitrust probe. 印度竞争委员会发现了2007年至2018年长达十年的固定价格卡特尔的证据,其中涉及协调投标、市场共享和阻止外国竞争者的努力。 India’s Competition Commission found evidence of a decade-long price-fixing cartel from 2007 to 2018, involving coordinated bidding, market sharing, and efforts to block foreign competitors. 行政主管承认利润和体积相等,印度水泥引用数字作为理由。 Executives admitted to equal profit and volume division, with India Cements citing numerology as justification. CCI要求各公司在最后定夺罚款前作出答复,罚款最高可达年利润的三倍或每年营业额的10%。 The CCI has asked the firms to respond before finalizing penalties, which could reach up to three times annual profits or 10% of turnover per year. 该案反映了重点转向关键产业中强大的国内公司。 The case reflects a shift in focus toward powerful domestic firms in key industries.
