Established under the Competition Act, 2002, the CCI is a statutory body tasked with the monumental responsibility of preventing anti-competitive practices, protecting the interests of consumers, and ensuring the freedom of trade in Indian markets. Since its inception, the Commission has played a pivotal role in maintaining a level playing field for businesses while fostering an environment of innovation and economic efficiency.

Interns are assigned to various divisions under the guidance of experienced CCI officers. During the tenure, you will engage in high-level research, assist in market studies, and analyze economic data related to competition cases. The program begins with a mandatory induction session to ground participants in the legal framework of the Commission. A unique highlight is the final mandatory presentation, where interns showcase their findings to the officers. Successful completion of this presentation is a prerequisite for receiving the professional certificate and the monthly honorarium.
