Antitrust regulator the Competition Commission of India has fined Google Inc. nearly 1.4 billion Indian rupees ($21 million) for "search bias" and abuse of its dominant position, Reuters reported. "Google was leveraging its dominance in the market for online general web search, to strengthen its position in the market for online syndicate search services," the CCI said. The commission decided to impose a fine at the rate of 5% of the average total revenue generated by Google from its Indian operations.
