India’s new DPDP regime is beginning to take shape, and businesses can no longer treat privacy compliance as a distant issue. This presentation is a concise primer on the evolving framework – covering applicability, key definitions, consent, legitimate uses, rights of data principals, obligations of data fiduciaries, breach reporting, retention, cross-border transfers, significant data fiduciaries, consent managers, and the penalty landscape. A useful starting point for companies, in-house teams, and decision-makers looking to understand what the new regime may require in practice.
