An Indian antitrust investigation of Amazon.com and Walmart's Flipkart has been put on hold by a court, three lawyers involved in the proceedings told Reuters on Friday.
Amazon this week challenged the investigation in a court in Bengaluru and the court has granted a stay of two months, according to a lawyer from P&A Law Offices representing Amazon and two other legal counsels involved in the matter.
The Competition Commission of India (CCI) last month ordered a probe into Amazon and Flipkart over alleged violations of competition law and certain discounting practices.
