The tender was called for a railway development project near Debrecen.

GVH said the two companies tried to obstruct the competition authority’s procedure and therefore they also have to pay an additional procedural fine of HUF 25 million.

Another company involved in the case, Inter Mobility, cooperated with GVH during the procedure.

It submitted a leniency application, which GVH’s Competition Council accepted, participated in a settlement procedure and undertook to introduce a compliance program.

GVH therefore reduced the fine that could be imposed on the company to HUF 30 mln.
