Vide two notifications dated 7th March 2024, the Ministry of Corporate Affairs has (i) enhanced the wholesale price index of the monetary thresholds provided under Section 5 of the Competition Act ("Act") ("Jurisdictional Thresholds") by 150% and (ii) increased the monetary thresholds provided under the existing small target or De-minimis Exemption ("De-minimis Thresholds"). Set out below is a brief snapshot of these revised thresholds.

Jurisdictional Thresholds

As per the Indian merger regime, Jurisdictional Thresholds have been provided at both, an enterprise level and a group level. If any of the Jurisdictional Thresholds (mentioned below) are met, a requirement to notify the envisaged transaction to the Competition Commission of India ("CCI") for its approval will get triggered.
