Apple was denied its attempt to have an investigative report suspended by India's antitrust authority.

According to reports, the Competition Commission of India (CCI) has sent an internal ruling that entails the action against the iPhone manufacturer to proceed.

Earlier, the CCI took up one of its assessment, which stated that Apple had violated India's competition laws, after claiming that the regulator had given its competitors access to trade information which was meant to be deleted.

Prior to making the new reports public, the CCI urged every party to return the reports and delete any copies.

Apple requested that the CCI take action against TWFS; however, the CCI's order dismissed the company's plea to halt the investigation report.

it is reported that Apple’s actions has affected app developers, customers, and other payment processors by exercising a dominant position in the market for app stores on its iOS operating system, as per the first CCI inquiry.

Apple has denied any wrongdoing and claimed that phones running Google's Android operating system greatly outnumber its offerings in India.

The case is ongoing as Apple is being investigated for antitrust violations in international markets.

The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) of the United Kingdom, for instance, stated last week that it could start a formal investigation to see if the company's mobile ecosystem strategy was "stopping innovation."

In a letter to PYMNTS, Apple stated that it disagrees with the CMA's conclusions, believes in "thriving and dynamic markets," and faces competition everywhere it works.

Apple, however, requested last week that a federal judge dismiss the antitrust lawsuit filed by the U.S. Justice Department, which charges the corporation with operating an illegal smartphone monopoly.

The government is claiming Apple of making it more difficult for customers to switch phones by denying competitors access to the hardware and software of its handsets.

In court earlier this year, Apple argued that it is not obligated to grant software developers any further access to iPhones beyond what they currently have, refuting claims that it has a monopoly.
