NAVIGATING THE PERSONAL DATA CONTOURS UNDER THE DIGITAL PERSONAL DATA PROTECTION ACT 2023 Amri Gupta, Student at ICFAI Law School, IFHE, Hyderabad. Download Manuscript ABSTRACT The Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, is a pivotal legislation in India’s digital governance landscape, aiming to address the growing need for robust data protection laws in the digital era. It defines and regulates personal data, introducing key entities like Data Fiduciary and Significant Data Fiduciary, along with strict obligations and penalties for non-compliance. However, the Act’s impact is not without challenges, particularly in its potential conflicts with the Right to Information Act, 2005. Amendments to the RTI Act’s Section 8(1)(j), expanding non-disclosure of personal data-related information, raise questions about the balance between data protection and the fundamental right to information. The role of the Data Protection Board emerges as crucial, tasked with providing clarity and guidance on the Act’s implementation. This article underscores the importance of striking a balance between data protection and the right to information, calling for nuanced approaches that safeguard privacy while ensuring transparency and accountability. It examines the Act’s provisions and highlights challenges, emphasizing the vital role of the Data Protection Board in providing much-needed clarity. The analysis stresses the need for clear guidelines and robust regulatory oversight to ensure the Act’s effective implementation. While the DPDP Act 2023 is a significant stride in data governance, the importance of well-defined guidelines becomes evident as India adapts to the intricacies of the digital age.
