04 Apr 2014 Evaluate

Competition Commission of India (CCI) has laid-off allegations that State Bank of India (SBI) abused its dominant market position by imposing unreasonable and unfair conditions on car loan borrowers. Earlier, a complaint was filed with CCI alleging that the SBI abusing its dominant position by not informing car loan borrowers in advance about papers required to be signed for availing a loan and compelling them to sign various standard forms which contained one-sided terms. The complaint was filed by one Ashok R Mansata, who is the President of Concern for Citizens, a non-profit voluntary organisation.

In an order dated April 2, 2014, the CCI held that as prima facie SBI did not appear to be in a dominant position in the relevant market (for vehicle loans in India). CCI also noted that vehicle loan market in India is largely competitive with the presence of many big players from public sector banks, private sector banks, foreign banks, along with non-banking finance companies and co-operative banks
