Google To Remove Apps From Play Store On Non-Compliance Of Service-Charge Norms

InfoEdge India Ltd. has been compliant with the payment policies since the Supreme Court order. Google has sent notices to companies seeking compliance, according to founder Sanjeev Bikhchandani

"There are no pending invoices of Google with us. All have been paid in a timely manner. We are replying to the notice," Bikhchandani said.

Snehil Khanor, chief executive officer of Truly Madly, said the notice sent is similar to Google's blogpost and as of now, its legal team is checking the details. "They are coercing us to remove other payment gateways despite a clear order by (the) CCI. It shows that they don't care about Indian laws," Khanor told NDTV Profit.

Matrimony.com is another company affected by this. Google did not give the company any time to reply to the notice, according to CEO Murugavel Janakiraman.

It removed its app, 'Jodii', from Google Play in no time. "Our app is removed. It shows how Google is going towards monopoly in India," Janakiraman said.

"We made changes after (the) Feb. 9 order to comply with Google's policies; chose from payment options that Google made available," Rohan Mathur, business head of Jeevansathi.com., said.

The company is trying to understand the reasons for this notice and is working on sending a reply to Google, Mathur said.
