Apple vs $38 billion fine: Apple goes to High Court to avoid penalty; calls it unconstitutional and unjust

Apple is contesting India’s new antitrust rules in Delhi High Court. The company fears massive fines based on its worldwide earnings, potentially reaching $38 billion. This challenge targets amendments allowing penalties calculated on global turnover, not just Indian revenue. The case stems from an investigation into Apple’s App Store practices, including mandatory in-app purchases and commissions. Regulators found Apple engaged in abusive conduct, creating a monopoly. The court hearing is scheduled for December 3.
