9th Grand Intra Moot Court Competition 2015

E-commerce Retailers Association (ERA)

v.

Republic of Cyindia

The Republic of Cyindia is located in South East Asia with a population of over 1.2 billion people. Over 65% of this population is under 40 years of age. The laws/byelaws/regulations and the Constitution of Cyindia is in pari materia with the India is all aspects.

In light of the huge public demand, E-commerce websites such as Slipkart, Zyntra, Lebong, etc. made their foray in the Cyindian market.  They were an instant hit among the masses in light of offering all kinds of products catering to all walks of life at attractive prices and free home delivery.  Every three months, these websites would offer massive discounts and combo packages to attract more customers.

Mrs. Leela Devi is a famous and controversial MP hailing from the State of Marqeev which is the most populated state in Cyindia. Mrs. Devi, had always staunchly opposed these websites on the ground that these websites affect the business and livelihood of the local retailers and traders. Her continued agitations led to the passing of E Retail Competition Rules, 2015 whereby the Central Government of Cyndia was given the power to regulate all the discounts and prices given by e-retailers online.  However, the said rules were not applicable to local retailers/ traders who would continue to be governed by the existing laws.

The E-commerce Retailers Association (ERA) is an association formed and established by all the websites seeking to engage in the retailing business. ERA filed a petition under Art 226 impugning the Constitutional Validity of these Rules of 2015 on various grounds.

The High Court of Marqeev dismissed the petition inter alia on the ground that it encourages a level playing field between local and e-retailers.  ERA has now filed a Special Leave Petition under Art. 136 against the said order.

After admitting the said petition, the Supreme Court has framed the following issues:

1.      Whether the said Petition is Maintainable?

2.      Whether such rules can be made by the Central Government? 

3.      Whether the said Rules violate Fundamental Rights of the E-retailers?

4.      Whether the pricing arrangement of e-retailers is anti-competitive?

The participants are at the liberty to raise additional issues.

Note:

The Supreme Court of Cyindia treats decisions of Indian courts as having high persuasive value and relies on precedents from other jurisdictions as well.
