The Extra-Territorial Jurisdiction of the Competition Commission of India (CCI) has gained significance within the globalized economy. This jurisdiction allows the CCI to address arrangements made outside Indian jurisdiction but affecting the Indian market adversely. This paper explores the concept of Extra-Territorial Jurisdiction as outlined in Section 32 of the Competition Act, 2002, and its implications for the CCI. It discusses the application of Extra-Territorial Jurisdiction under both the Monopolistic and Restrictive Trade Practices (MRTP) Act, 1969, and the Competition Act, 2002, considering the effects doctrine’s scope in domestic and international law. The powers and procedures of the CCI are analyzed concerning enforcement and challenges faced by the CCI in implementing these measures. Comparison and comparative analysis of the Extra-Territorial Jurisdiction principle in the United States (US) and the European Union (EU) aim to uncover whether these jurisdictions prioritize harmonization with international law or give precedence to domestic law. The Challenges encountered by the CCI in exercising Extra-Territorial Jurisdiction are examined, alongside relevant legal frameworks and case laws, shedding light on potential impacts on cross-border business activities. Through a thorough analysis of the complexities and implications of Extra-Territorial Jurisdiction, this paper contributes insights into the evolving landscape of competition law enforcement in India, US and EU. Some recommendations are offered to address these challenges, providing a comprehensive conclusion to the study.
