Digital Personal Data Protection Bill, 2022: Highlights and preliminary analysis

The Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (“MeitY”) released the Digital Personal Data Protection Bill (“DPD Bill”) on November 18, 2022. The DPD Bill, in its current form, proposes a simplified and streamlined personal data protection regime for India that is more business friendly and forward-looking than its earlier iterations. The DPD Bill tones down some contentious clauses which caused industry pushback, particularly data mirroring and data localisation requirements.

MeitY has asked for chapter-wise feedback on the DPD Bill by December 17, 2022.
