Realty firm DLF Ltd
has said that it will move Supreme Court against Competition Appellate Tribunal
(COMPAT) ruling that upheld the CCI order imposing Rs. 630 crore penalty on the
company.
The Competition
Commission of India (CCI) had found DLF Ltd violating fair trade norms in their
Belaire project.
The decision came
after the Belaire Owners' Association had approached the CCI for constructing
additional floors without their permission. Ruling in favour of the residents,
the CCI imposed a penalty of Rs. 630 crore on DLF Ltd, in August 2011.

challenging the said Order passed by the Hon'ble COMPAT in the Hon'ble Supreme
Court for which COMPAT has given us 60 days time,” said Mr.Sanjey Roy, Senior
