Service ยท DPDPA Compliance
DPDPA compliance for Indian businesses
DPDPA compliance means meeting India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act 2023 and DPDP Rules 2025 - mapping personal data, managing consent, honouring user-rights requests, and being able to notify a breach within the required window. It applies to every business processing Indian residents' personal data, with no exemption for company size.

Step 1 - diagnose
Does DPDPA actually apply to you?
If any of these describe your business, DPDPA applies - regardless of company size or sector.
You collect names, emails, phone numbers or any personal data from Indian residents - customers, employees or website visitors.
You use third-party tools (CRM, analytics, payment processors) that store personal data on your behalf.
You don't have a documented process for handling a user's request to access or delete their data.
You've never mapped exactly where personal data lives across your systems and vendors.

Frequently asked
Common questions about DPDPA compliance
Does DPDPA apply to my small business?
Yes. Unlike some data protection laws, DPDPA has no exemption for company size - if you process personal data of Indian residents, it applies.
What happens if we're not ready by May 2027?
Non-compliance risk includes penalties up to ₹250 crore per violation, in addition to reputational and contractual risk with enterprise customers who now require compliance proof.
How long does a DPDPA compliance programme take?
Varies by current maturity, but most programmes move from gap assessment to a working baseline within one quarter, with continuous oversight after.
Do you sell the compliance software, or just advise?
We diagnose first. Where technology is recommended, it's the documented outcome of that diagnosis - never the starting point of the conversation.
