It was also alleged that there were\u00a0other manufactures of burners with the same technical specifications available in India, including the burner manufactured by\u00a0the Informant but, putting such a condition in the tender which resulted into making only one manufacturer a preferred supplier\u00a0was anti-competitive and shows that there was an arrangement\/ understanding between the parties to disqualify all other\u00a0manufacturers\/ distributors of burners which amounts to bid rigging and collusive bidding in contravention of Section 3(3)(d) of\u00a0the Competition Act.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">After hearing the parties, CCI noted that a procurer, as a consumer, can stipulate certain technical\u00a0specifications\/ conditions\/ clauses in the tender document as per its requirements which by themselves cannot be deemed anti-competitive. CCI further noted that the party floating the tender is a consumer and it has the right to decide on the appropriate\u00a0eligibility conditions based on its requirements as in a market economy, consumers\u2019 choice is considered as sacrosanct and in\u00a0such an economy, a consumer must be allowed to exercise its choice freely while purchasing goods and services in the market.\u00a0\u201cOP 2 (Amul Dairy) may have some specific needs while constructing the boiler in its plant and to achieve that standard\/quality, it might have mentioned the name of \u2018Weishaupt\u2019 as the preferred manufacturer in the list of preferred makes of bought\u00a0out items. It may also be noted from the list of \u2018preferred makes of bought out items\u2019 provided in the tender that for each\u00a0product (except the burner), it has given the names of more than one preferred manufacturers, indicating that OP 2 is open to\u00a0procuring from different manufacturers,\u201d noted CCI while rejecting the allegations against Amul Dairy and closing the matter.
