Research
Research profile
Anush's main research interest is in competition law. His work has so far covered critical analysis of competition policy in digital markets with perspectives from the EU, US, UK, and India which has formed the base of his research.
He has also covered pricing practices (predatory pricing, price discrimination, excessive pricing) by platform firms in digital markets. His research covers broader areas related to abuse of dominance in digital markets. Anush also aims to expand his research to the application of competition law in matters related to development, sustainability, and sports.
His expertise within competition law is in abuse of dominance (mainly from an Article 102 TFEU context) but has researched agreements and mergers related topics as well and aims to expand his research to the other two competition law pillars in the future.
His current research projects include:
- Assessment of competition in digital market legislation in India, EU, UK, Australia, South Korea and Japan
- Convergence of competition law and data protection laws
- The reform of Article 102 TFEU
- Development of types of abuses under Article 102 TFEU such as tying, predatory pricing, and refusal to supply.
