CCI可能会ping谷歌关于Jio交易的信息
孟买|新德里:印度竞争委员会(CCI)的问题谷歌这家美国互联网巨头是否会收购雅虎7.73%的股份Jio平台是否会导致数据共享,从而阻碍竞争,尤其是在手机领域行业包括律师和政府官员在内的知情人士说。

CCI可能会要求谷歌解释数据共享的细节Jio.在许多国家,当一家大公司达成交易时,监管机构都会进行这些交叉核查,在本案中也会如此,”一位了解事态发展的人士表示。

在最近批准这家社交媒体公司投资Jio平台之前,竞争监管机构也曾向Facebook索取过类似的信息信实工业公司该集团旗下拥有移动服务运营商Reliance Jio和其他数字业务。

谷歌于9月向委员会提出申请,寻求批准其对Jio平台的3337亿卢比投资,以及一项联合开发入门级安卓智能手机的商业协议。申请目前正在审查中。

谷歌、Jio和CCI直到周日发稿时才回复ET寻求置评的电子邮件。

另一位知情人士表示,CCI正在研究的问题包括谷歌在Jio平台上的投资将有多少用于手机开发和制造。

另一位知情人士表示,CCI已经与包括设备制造商在内的多个利益相关者进行了接触,以了解中国市场,以及该交易可能对手机行业其他行业产生的影响。

“由于大多数手机制造商使用Android作为平台,CCI正试图了解Jio和谷歌之间的任何安排是否可能是排他的,因此这对其他设备制造商使用谷歌的软件意味着什么,特别是在政府试图使印度成为智能手机制造中心并推出激励计划的时候。这(交易)是否意味着其他手机制造商可能因为两家公司之间的协议而遭受损失?”

一位政府官员说,CCI在评估过程中要求企业澄清。他补充称,除了提交申请前的磋商,申请人还需要提供有关交易的大量信息。

“谷歌拥有大量数据,在移动操作系统领域占据主导地位。CCI将想知道Jio在制造Android手机时是否能获得这些数据或获得优惠待遇,从而影响市场竞争的细节,”软件自由法律中心(Software Freedom Law Center)法律总监Prasanth Sugathan表示。

“仅仅合作并不是问题所在;问题在于谷歌是否会利用其主导地位,使市场向有利于Jio的方向倾斜。”

CCI正在调查这宗交易之际,亚马逊(Amazon)、苹果(Apple)、谷歌和Facebook等美国科技巨头的运营和行动正受到更严格的全球监管审查,外界对它们涉嫌的反竞争行为感到担忧。

谷歌主导着印度的搜索、视频、地图和电子邮件市场。在印度销售的智能手机中,十分之九装有谷歌的Android操作系统。Jio平台是Reliance Jio的母公司,Reliance Jio是印度最大的电信公司,拥有近4亿用户。

两家公司也都有类似的服务,比如支付。谷歌支付在印度运行在统一支付接口(UPI)上,被广泛认为是印度这种数字支付模式的市场领导者,每月处理约50%的交易量,其次是沃尔玛旗下的PhonePe和Paytm。负责管理UPI系统的印度国家支付公司(National Payments Corporation of India)没有披露每月交易的特定平台数据。

根据监管机构周二公布的命令,Facebook在回应CCI关于其购买Jio平台9.99%股份的问题时,向监管机构保证,其交易只涉及交换与促进电子商务交易有关的“有限数据”。在批准交易的同时,CCI警告双方,未来因数据共享而导致的反竞争行为可能会受到监管机构的调查。

\"CCI<\/figure>Mumbai | New Delhi: The Competition Commission of India (CCI<\/a>) is set to ask Google<\/a> whether the US Internet giant\u2019s purchase of a 7.73% stake in Jio Platforms<\/a> would entail any sharing of data in a way that could stymie competition, especially in the handset industry<\/a>, said people familiar with the matter, including lawyers and government officials.

\"The CCI is likely to ask Google to explain details of data sharing with
Jio<\/a>. In many countries, the regulatory bodies are doing these cross checks when a big player strikes a deal, which will be happening in this case as well,\" said a person aware of the development.

The competition watchdog had sought similar information from Facebook as well before giving its clearance recently to the social media company\u2019s investment in Jio Platforms, the
Reliance Industries<\/a> unit that holds mobile services operator Reliance Jio and other digital businesses of the Indian group.
