The DPDP Act Deadline Calendar: Every Date Between Now and 13 May 2027
The DPDP Rules 2025 set two hard dates: 13 November 2026 for the Consent Manager framework and 13 May 2027 for every core obligation. MeitY has proposed compressing that further. Here is the month-by-month readiness calendar Indian businesses should be working to.
With the notification of the DPDP Rules and MeitY’s accelerated compliance push, Indian organisations should structure their readiness across a 90-day sprint: Month 1 for data discovery, cookie scanning, and purpose mapping; Month 2 for deploying multilingual consent notices, preference centres, and vendor DPAs; and Month 3 for staff training, mock DPBI audits, and go-live certification.
