The Competition Commission of India must address antitrust issues in Indian labour markets.

Collusion, extending to freelancers, can include informal exchanges on recruitment and even AI-enabled tools. Businesses must proactively invest in competition compliance, auditing HR policies, and training to mitigate risks. The CCI should undertake market studies, engage stakeholders, and expand scrutiny to dominant employers' unilateral practices like non-compete clauses. A calibrated enforcement approach by the CCI, combined with business compliance, will foster healthy competition and complement government reforms.
