What is the DPDP compliance deadline in India?
The DPDP Act is in force; sectoral rules and Board operationalization are rolling out through 2025–2027. Organizations should treat compliance as immediate operational risk, not a future project.
Draft DPDP Rules 2025 clarify operational details including consent managers, breach reporting, and SDF obligations.
Penalties under the Schedule can reach ₹250 crore for serious violations. Early compliance reduces enforcement and breach exposure as the Board becomes active.
