2013 (7) TMI 250 - TRIBUNAL DELHIMuch ado about nothing - nature and substance of the restrictive trade practices complained against the Film Makers Combine (FMC), Indian Motion Picture Producers Association (IMPPA) and Film Distributors Council (FDC)- Held that:- In sofar as the specific instances of the abuse of agreement in question are concerned, it is obvious that there has been a settlement between the original complainant and the respondents. Because the complainant does not have any more complaint/grievance of any boycott or the compulsory undertakings which he is to give under the authority of either FMC or FDC so that question will clearly be foreign to the present enquiry. Also on going through the agreement no scope for any abuse in that agreement found. Nothing has been shown in the agreement which would empower the FDC to order the boycott or to make a producer or distributor to sign an undertaking which would be restrictive to any competition. As the parties have lost interest in the matter no need to continue with this enquiry. As respondent No. 3, Ms. Goel, however assured us that there shall be no abuse of the powers of FDC and, in fact, according to Ms. Goel, the amended complaint has got nothing to do with the FDC at all. There is nothing on record, at least, to suggest that FDC is actually an associate or affiliate of FMC.
