The National Company Law Appellate Tribunal (NCLAT) on Wednesday dismissed cement manufacturers' plea challenging the order of fair trade regulator CCI to impose a penalty of Rs 6,300 (rpt) 6,300 crore for alleged cartelisation.

A two-member NCLAT bench headed by Chairman Justice S J Mukhopadhaya dismissed a batch of petitions by 10 (rpt) 10 cement makers.

"The appeals are dismissed," said the NCLAT, which now is an appellate authority over the Competition Commission of India (CCI).

In August 2016, CCI had slapped approximately Rs 6,700 crore penalty on 11 cement firms including UltraTech, ACC, Ambuja, Ramco and JK Cement as well as the industry body Cement Manufacturers' Association (CMA) for indulging in cartelisation.

This was challenged by the cement makers before the Competition Appellate Tribunal, which had in November 2016 stayed the CCI's direction to pay 10 per cent of the penalty within a month of the order.

In the August 2016 order, apart from penalising the CMA, the CCI had directed all the firms to "cease and desist" from indulging in any activity relating to agreement, understanding or arrangement on prices, production and supply of cement in the market.
