The parliament of India has passed the Digital Personal Data Protection Act 2023 (“DPDP Act” or “Act”) on 11th August 2023.
The goal of the DPDP Act is to outline guidelines for processing digital personal data in a way that acknowledges both individuals' rights to privacy protection and the requirement to process personal data for legal purposes.
It provides the rights to data principals (data subjects), outline obligations of data fiduciaries (data handlers/controllers), and furnish penalties for non-compliance. It applies to the processing of digital personal data within India, whether collected online or offline.
DPDP Act has extraterritorial application if the processing is in connection with offering goods or services to data principals within India. The DPDP Act was published in the official Gazette on 12th August 2023.
Securiti enables organizations to comply with India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act 2023 through AI-driven PI data discovery, DSR automation, documented accountability, enhanced visibility into data processing activities, and AI-driven process automation.

The data principal has the right to request information from the data fiduciary. This includes obtaining confirmation of whether the data fiduciary is or has processed the data principal's personal data, a summary of the personal data being or that has been processed, and the identities of all data fiduciaries with whom the personal data has been shared, along with the categories of personal data shared.
A data principal shall have the right to correction and erasure of their personal data. Upon receiving a request for such correction of the personal data from a data principal, a data fiduciary is required to correct any inaccuracies, complete any incomplete information and update a data principal's personal data in the systems accordingly. In addition, the data fiduciary must also erase the personal data upon recieving such request from the data subject unless data retention is required by law.
A data principal has the right to lodge a complaint with a data fiduciary. If a data fiduciary's response to a grievance is unsatisfactory, or if no response is received within time frame that may be prescribed, the data principal may submit a complaint with the Data Protection Board in the way that may be required.
A data principal shall be entitled to designate any other person in the manner that may be prescribed who shall, in the case of the data principal's death or incapacity, exercise the data principal's rights in accordance with the requirements of this Act.
The Data Protection Board (DPB) under the DPDP Act serves primarily as an adjudicating body rather than a comprehensive regulatory authority. While it handles grievance adjudication and penalizing data breaches, its scope does not extend to broader regulatory functions such as cross-border data transfer regulation or rulemaking for data fiduciaries' obligations. Instead, these responsibilities remain with the Central Government.
Transfer of data outside the territory of India is allowed, however, only after conducting an assessment of relevant factors and defining specifications of terms and conditions for transfers.
If a data fiduciary or data processor fails to take reasonable security safeguards to prevent a personal data breach, the penalty imposed would be 250 crore Indian Rupees.
The data fiduciary may only engage, appoint, use, or involve a data processor to process personal data on its behalf under a valid contract.
