BENGALURU (Reuters) -Alphabet Inc’s Google has warned it may remove the apps of 10 companies in India, including of Matrimony.com and Info Edge, for not paying a service fee for the use of its app store platform in India, two sources said.
Info Edge founder Sanjeev Bikhchandani said it had received a notice from Google and was compliant with Play Store policies.
“There are no pending invoices of Google with us. All have been paid in a timely manner,” he said.
Google, which said it is removing apps of 10 companies, did not name any in a blog post where it detailed the move.
Two sources with direct knowledge of the matter said Matrimony.com was one of the companies. Matrimony.com did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Matrimony.com shares fell as much as 2.7% after the news before paring some losses, while Info Edge dropped 1.5%.
