Correct Answer: 1%


Solution : The correct answer is 1%.

The proposed amendment to the Competition Act, of 2002, was introduced in the Lok Sabha, focusing on addressing the issue of "gun jumping." Gun jumping occurs when parties involved in a merger or acquisition close the deal before obtaining regulatory approval or fail to report a significant transaction to the Competition Commission. The amendment suggests changing the penalty for gun jumping from 1% of the assets or turnover to 1% of the deal value, aiming to strengthen regulatory oversight and ensure compliance with competition laws.
