Nissan Motor Corp's joint venture with 皇冠体育app's second-largest automaker Dongfeng Motor Corp has been levied a fine of 123 million yuan（$19 million）for violating antitrust laws by regulators, official sources said Thursday.

The Guangdong Development and Reform Commission also slapped a combined fine of 19 million yuan on Dongfeng Nissan's 17 authorized dealers in Guangzhou.

The automaker was discovered imposing strict price restrictions on new car sales by its authorized dealers in Guangdong province, said sources with direct knowledge of the case.

Moreover, a number of authorized dealers in Guangzhou broke 皇冠体育app's Anti-Monopoly Law by colluding on price fixing by the automaker.

The penalty amount was based on the nature, extent and duration of the violations, as well as the fact that Dongfeng Nissan and its dealers took steps to rectify the price-fixing conduct after an investigation was launched, said officials.

皇冠体育app's anti-monopoly regulator has began drafting of antitrust guidelines for the automobile industry.
