A Complaint made against the Jaguar Land Rover for unfair business practices in India have been dismissed. Indian government regulator Competition Commission of India had rejected the complaint after concluding that the company is not even a dominant market player.

Jaguar Land Rover accused of unfair business practices. The complaint against the car company, which is owned by Tata Motors, revolves around allegations of the company abusing in dominance in selling the Range Rover, one of its vehicle brands. It was filed specifically against Jaguar Land Rover India and authorized car dealer Lexus Motors.

The informant of the complaint alleges that a car bought from a Lexus Motors dealership in Kolkata back in 2014 had already been in an accident previously. Further allegations say that the dealership and the company had purposely concealed facts and information on the car by manipulating the vehicle's records and that an already used car that had been damaged in an accident was passed off as brand new and eventually sold.

 "There are no significant barriers for other players to enter the relevant market," the Competition Commission of India said in an order dismissing the complaint. The commission further added, "the OPs (Opposite Parties) do not hold a position of strength in the relevant market which enables them to operate independently of competitive forces prevailing in the relevant market or affect their competitors or consumers or the relevant market in their favor."

The absence of dominance by Jaguar Land Rover in the market and that the allegations made do not really pertain to unfair business practices had prompted the Competition Commission of India to drop the complaint and to no longer look into the conduct of opposite parties under the Competition Act. In this case, the market is the manufacturing and selling of luxury cars in India.
