UPS has petitioned the Delhi High Court to overturn the Competition Commission of India's decision allowing book publishers to cross-examine its India executive in an antitrust case. Despite a previous investigation clearing UPS, FedEx, DHL, and Aramex of price collusion allegations, the CCI granted the Federation of Indian Publishers unusual permission to conduct cross-examinations. This dispute unfolds as India's courier market is projected to grow to $14.3 billion by 2030.
