The Clock Is Running
Where India stands on DPDP compliance
August 2023
DPDP Act Enacted
The Digital Personal Data Protection Act receives Presidential assent. It becomes law.
November 2025
Implementation Window Opens
Government officially begins the 18-month compliance preparation period for all organisations.
Now
Most Organisations Unprepared
The majority of Indian organisations have not begun mapping their data obligations under the Act.
Mid-2027
Compliance Expected
Enforcement risk rises significantly. Organisations without systems in place face regulatory exposure.
Every organisation that collects personal data in India is legally obligated to comply — regardless of size or industry. Not knowing where you stand is itself a risk.
