India’s financial sector is grappling with the advent of the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023. On top of the new law, the sector is subject to a range of data protection requirements arising out of sectoral regulations.

On September 21, 2023, our Data Protection and FSR experts, Mathew Chacko, Ankita Hariramani, and Aadya Misra, discussed the data protection framework that affects the businesses operating in the financial space.
