In August 2018, CAIT had filed a petition in the NCLAT, which is also an appellate authority over the CCI, asking for the reversal of the Walmart-Flipkart deal.
On Aug. 18, Walmart had informed that it has completed deal with Flipkart and holds 77 per cent stake in the Indian e-commerce major.
Earlier on Sep. 6, the NCLAT had asked WalMart International Holdings Inc. to file a reply before it explaining the way of doing business in India.
CAIT was also asked to file its understanding over the Walmart's business model in India.
