  • Bytedance Ltd., the world's most valuable startup, has been allowed by the Madras High Court to restore access of its popular TikTok video-sharing app to the users in one of the Chinese company's most promising markets.
  • The Madras High Court in its interim order on Wednesday lifted the ban on the app, which had been blocked by Google and Apple Inc.
  • Bytedance told the court the ban denied the right to free speech for millions of app users in the country and also caused a loss of about $600,000 in daily revenue for the company.
  • Apple and Google had banned new downloads of the app to comply with the earlier court decision.
