      The Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act, 2023, operationalised through the 2025 Rules, introduces a transformative framework for handling personal data in India. For Telecom, Media, and Technology (TMT) sector-key custodians of vast consumer data-the implications are significant.

      DPDP is not just a regulatory milestone-it’s a strategic inflection point for TMT sectors to redefine trust, accelerate digital growth, and lead in a privacy-conscious economy. Rather than viewing DPDP as a compliance burden, TMT players can leverage it to build trust as a competitive differentiator.
