The All India Consumer Products Distributors Federation (AICPDF) has called on the antitrust authority to investigate Zomato’s Blinkit, Swiggy, and Zepto for alleged predatory pricing.
A letter from the AICPDF stated that quick commerce firms are engaging in predatory pricing by offering deep discounts and selling below cost to attract customers.
The letter highlighted that traditional retailers find it impossible to compete or survive due to such practices.
The AICPDF urged the Competition Commission of India (CCI) to implement protective measures for traditional distributors and small retailers.
