Amazon sellers Cloudtail and Appario were raided in Delhi and Bengaluru for antitrust raids

Amazon sellers Cloudtail and Appario were raided for alleged violation of competition laws. Raids are being conducted by the Competition Commission of India (CCI). The raids – in Delhi and Bengaluru – are related to CCI’s 2020 investigation into anti-competitive practices by Amazon and Flipkart.

Amazon has been accused of giving preferential treatment to a few sellers, including Cloudtail, and using them to bypass Indian laws. An investigation last year by Reuters – based on Amazon documents – showed the retail behemoth had given preferential treatment for years to a select group of sellers.

Cloudtail has been a source of contention for years, with brick-and-mortar retailers accusing Amazon of giving it preferential treatment at the expense of smaller businesses. It was created after Amazon formed a joint venture with Infosys founder Narayana Murthy, which was then used to create Cloudtail.
