ABSTRACT

Data Privacy is the buzzword in today's world and data protection is the biggest worry. Our data has become the new currency for the tech giants and social media intermediaries and what worries us more is that we don't have data protection laws as the Data Protection Bill, 2022 is still under consideration. In these times of data privacy horrors, another issue that came into the limelight was the jurisdiction of the Competition Commission of India on the matters of data privacy and protection. In this paper, the researcher will discuss whether the Competition Commission of India has the power to investigate the allegations of data privacy.
