India's antitrust body on Friday ordered a probe into Alphabet Inc.'s Google in an ongoing dispute with local startups over its in-app billing system, saying the U.S. company implemented its policies in a "discriminatory manner".
Indian startups have been at odds with Google for months over the fee it charges for in-app payments.
The dispute escalated earlier this month after Google removed more than 100 Indian apps from its app store for violations related to billing, though it restored them after the Indian government intervened.
