Market Chatter: Amazon's $1.31 Billion Antitrust Fine in Italy Ordered Reduced
Sep 2, 2025 4:28 AM

07:08 AM EDT, 09/02/2025 (MT Newswires) -- Amazon.com's ( AMZN ) 1.13 billion euro ($1.31 billion) fine for alleged antitrust violations has been reduced by an Italian administrative court, Reuters reported Tuesday, citing a court document.

The online retailer was fined by Italy's competition authority for allegedly abusing its dominant position in e-commerce logistics services in a ruling that was upheld by the administrative court, Reuters reported.

But the court also ruled that the fine must be recalculated as the regulator had failed to explain reasons for a 50% discretionary increase, the report said.

Amazon ( AMZN ) did not immediately reply to MT Newswires' request for comment.

It won't be long before India hits a century of unicorns. But, yet only a handful of these billion-dollar startups have a woman co-founder. This scarcity of women leaders at some of India’s most valuable startups is a symptom of the tethers that run all the way down to the bottom of the pyramid. In India, 7 out of 10 startups have less than 20 percent women in leadership positions, according to an Innoven Capital report. To discuss ways to bridge gender gap in startup ecosystem, CNBC-TV18 spoke to Renuka Ramnath of Multiples Alternate Asset Management; VT Bharadwaj, Partner at A91 Partners and Madhu Shalini Iyer, Partner at Rocketship.vc.
