Apple Challenges CCI's Demand for Financials
Apple is in a big fight with a group in India called the CCI.
The CCI wants to look at Apple's money details from all over the world because they think Apple might be treating app developers unfairly.
Apple says this is not fair and could lead to a very big fine.
Apple is asking a court to stop the CCI from looking at its money details until the court decides if the rules are fair.
The court will make a decision on January 27, 2026.
Apple is challenging the CCI's demand for its global financial records in Delhi High Court.
The CCI is investigating Apple for allegedly abusing its dominant position in its app store.
Apple fears a potential fine of up to $38 billion if the CCI uses its global turnover for penalties.
Apple has challenged the validity of India's 2024 penalty rules in court.
The Delhi High Court is scheduled to hear the matter on January 27, 2026.
