India’s Competition Commission of India (CCI) has found seven regional steel industry associations in violation of anti-trust rules during a wider investigation into alleged price fixing.
According to industry sources, the associations were found to have acted as conduits for steel companies under investigation for anti-competitive practices.
The seven associations include groups based in:
- Jalna
- Hyderabad
- Raipur
- Chhattisgarh
- Mandi Gobindgarh
The broader CCI probe covers alleged collusion during 2018–2023 involving major steelmakers such as:
- Tata Steel

The investigation remains a significant development for India’s steel industry and competition landscape.
