# Google Said to Challenge CCI's Order on Unfair Business Practices in Android

- Google thinks CCI overlooked the OEMs' documented proof.
- Indian users, developers, and OEMs have benefited significantly from Android.
- The CCI ruling could put Indian users at risk for never-before-seen security breaches.

According to a corporate spokeswoman on Friday, Google has appealed the CCI's decision regarding unfair business practises in the Android [mobile device](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/198564/why-your-mobile-device-is-the-best-travel-gadget-to-pack) ecosystem to the NCLAT. **Google received a hefty Rs. 1,337.76 crore penalties from the Competition Commission in October** for misusing its power to monopolise several markets in respect to Android [mobile devices](https://yourviews.mindstick.com/view/85524/influence-of-mobile-devices-on-travel-and-tourism-experiences).

The internet behemoth was also told by the commission to discontinue a variety of unfair commercial practises. A Google official told PTI, 'We have decided to appeal the CCI's decision on Android because we feel it constitutes a significant setback for our Indian users and businesses that rely on Android's [security features](https://www.mindstick.com/blog/12911/lotteries-to-come-up-with-enhanced-security-features), and may increase the cost of mobile devices.'

The company claims that Android has greatly benefited Indian users, developers, and OEMs as well as accelerated India's [digital transformation](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/323237/5-significant-digital-transformation-trends-in-the-healthcare-for-2020). **Google** has reportedly asked for a stay, according to sources. The business also thinks CCI disregarded the weighty data OEMs, developers, and users had presented demonstrating that the open **Android [business model](https://answers.mindstick.com/qa/115104/how-has-the-rise-of-streaming-platforms-fundamentally-changed-hollywood-s-business-model) fosters competition for the benefit of all parties, including those in India specifically.**

Insiders claim that **Google** is certain the NCLAT would give due consideration to the provided material as well as the significant contribution Android has made to the profitable and quick growth of the Indian mobile ecosystem.

According to reports, **Android has expanded [opportunities](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/12566/mba-courses-in-delhi-ncr-offer-you-many-opportunities-galore) for everyone and supports thousands of globally successful businesses, both in India and elsewhere.** According to sources, the CCI decision will increase the price, lower the [functionality](https://www.mindstick.com/blog/136/using-watermark-functionality-in-textbox-by-jquery), and decrease the safety of Android handsets in India while exposing Indian users to hitherto unheard-of [security risks](https://www.mindstick.com/forum/160411/what-security-risks-are-associated-with-bearer-tokens-and-how-can-they-be-mitigated).
