India’s pricing regulator has fined more than a dozen global and local carmakers a total of 25.5 billion rupees ($420 million) after a probe found they had engaged in anti-competitive practices in the world’s sixth largest auto market.

The Indian penalty follows heightened regulatory scrutiny of the auto industry in China, the world’s largest auto market. The Competition Commis­sion of India (CCI) said in a statement it had fined the 14 automakers after its investigation showed they were restricting access to spare parts, which in turn made them more expensive for consumers.

It listed the automakers fined as the local unit of Honda Motor Co, Toyota Motor Co, Volkswagen AG and its unit Skoda Auto, BMW AG, Daimler AG’s Mer­cedes-Benz, Fiat SpA, Ford Motor Co , General Motors Co and Nissan Motor Co.

Local carmaker Tata Motors Ltd was handed the highest penalty of 13.46bn rupees. The other Indian carmakers fined were Maruti Suzuki Ltd, Hindus­tan Motors Ltd and Mahin­dra & Mahindra Ltd.

The fine, equivalent to two percent of the carmakers’ three-year average India revenue, is payable within 60 days, the regulator said.

“The anti-competitive conduct… has restricted the expansion of spare parts and independent repairers segment of the economy to its full potential, at the cost of the consumers, service providers and dealers,” it said in the statement.
