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.
