Applicability
Does DPDP apply to foreign companies?
Section 3(b), not in force yet, reaches processing outside India in connection with any activity related to offering goods or services to people in India. The Act creates no local presence duty beyond the India based Data Protection Officer of a notified Significant Data Fiduciary, and section 37 blocking, in the same 18 month group, is the route against a company with no Indian assets.
