G. Vinayakumar, a movie director, had approached CCI alleging anti-competitive conduct by\u00a0 Association of Malayalam Movie Artists (AMMA), Film Employees Federation of Kerala (FEFKA), FEFKA Director\u2019s Union, FEFKA Production Executive\u2019s Union.<\/div>\n<div class=\"contentdiv\">\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"center\">On different occasions, the said associations allegedly tried to force various actors, technicians, producers, financers, not to work or associate with the Informant in any of his project due to the Informant\u2019s efforts to streamline working conditions of artists and for the initiative \u2018Cinema Forum\u2019, which envisaged collaboration between film makers and distributors to make low budget movies with new actors.<br \/>\nConsequent upon detailed investigation by Director General, CCI found that FEFKA as a mighty organisation in the Malayalam film industry consisting of 17 sub-unions engaged in different facets of filmmaking and due to the ban imposed by FEFKA and AMMA on the Informant, many of the artists and technicians were not able to deal with the Informant or any other non-member. Such anti-competitive practise was held to have an appreciable adverse effect on the Malayalam film industry.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"center\">Accordingly, the Commission found the impugned decisions and practice of AMMA, FEFKA, FEFKA Director\u2019s Union, FEFKA Production Executive\u2019s Union and their five responsible Office Bearers viz. Shri Innocent, Shri Edavela Babu, Shri Sibi Malayil, Shri B. Unnikrishnan and Shri K. Mohanan to be in contravention of Section 3(3) of the Competition Act, 2002.<br \/>\nAs a result, CCI passed the following orders:<br \/>\n\u2022 Cease and desist from indulging in anti-competitive conduct.<br \/>\n\u2022 A Penalty of Rs. 4,00,065, Rs. 85,594, Rs. 3,86,354 and Rs. 56,661 was imposed on AMMA, FEFKA, FEFKA Director\u2019s Union and FEFKA Production Executive\u2019s Union respectively, calculated at the rate of 5% of their average income.<br \/>\n\u2022 Further, Rs. 51478, Rs. 19113, Rs. 66356, Rs. 32026, Rs. 27737 was imposed as penalty upon Shri Innocent, Shri Edavela Babu, Shri Sibi Malayil, Shri B.
