NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Amazon.com Inc took its legal challenge against partner Future Group's $3.4 billion retail assets sale to India's Supreme Court on Thursday, as the U.S. firm tries to stop a major rival buying the assets.

Amazon alleges that Future Group violated contracts by agreeing to sell the retail assets to market leader Reliance Industries last year. Future denies any wrongdoing.
