The Competition Commission of India (CCI) on Tuesday slapped a penalty of Rs 936.44 crore — the second in a span of seven days — on search engine giant Google for “abusing its dominant position with respect to its Play Store policies”.

The CCI has given 30 days to implement the corrective measures and modify its conduct.
