CCI Antitrust Risk
CRITICAL
2W & 3W exceeds 60% threshold
Primary Deadlock Drivers
Equity Oversubscription +6.0% Deficit
Uber insists on ≥58% while Rapido demands ≥48%. No middle ground exists without valuation haircut.
Board Control & Veto Rights Deadlocked
Uber's 4 seats (50%) fail to reach 66.7% supermajority; Rapido maintains unilateral veto over capital allocation.
⚠️
2W vs 4W Margin Conflict Take-Rate Gap
Rapido relies on zero/low commission SaaS tier for 2W (3-5% take-rate) whereas Uber demands ~20-25% margin.
CCI Regulatory Scrutiny Block Likely
Combined 80% bike-taxi and 60% auto-rickshaw share would face mandatory CCI divestment directives.
