AI × DPDP Readiness Kit · BFSI edition

    Make your AI DPDP-ready before 13 May 2027

    India's data law never mentions AI, but it governs every prompt, log and model that touches personal data. Six working tools find the gaps, fix them and prove it to your board.

    The gap most DPDP programmes miss

    Most DPDP projects map core systems, the CRM and HR. Meanwhile personal data has moved into copilots, chatbots, retrieval indexes, call analytics and AI vendors. That's where a ₹250 crore security failure or a missed 72-hour breach report is most likely to start. Generic DPDP checklists don't cover it. This kit does.

    What's inside

    01

    AI Personal-Data Inventory

    Find every AI system, including shadow AI, and every place it keeps personal data. Each system gets a gap score, a priority and the penalty band it puts at risk.

    02

    Consent & Purpose Map

    Test each AI purpose against what customers were actually told. Includes a notice checklist and six plain-English notice templates.

    03

    AI Vendor Clause Checklist

    23 requirements for LLM and AI SaaS vendors, a scorecard for up to five vendors and eight sample contract clauses.

    04

    Erasure Runbook

    A 14-step procedure that makes deletion reach indexes, caches, logs, vendors and backups, plus an end-to-end test script.

    05

    AI-Incident-to-Breach Playbook

    Breach triage, twelve classified AI incident scenarios, a 72-hour clock and notification templates structured on Rule 7.

    06

    Board Brief

    A fillable two-page PDF that turns your results into five board decisions.

    Five Excel workbooks and one fillable PDF, delivered by email.

    Built for

    Banks, NBFCs, fintechs and insurers, and the DPOs, CROs, CISOs and AI leads inside them. Any enterprise running AI on personal data in India can use it; the worked examples are drawn from financial services.

    What it is, and what it isn't

    It's a practical working kit, built on the DPDP Act, 2023, the DPDP Rules, 2025 and the RBI's FREE-AI report. It isn't legal advice, and it doesn't replace your counsel. It makes the work you take to them faster and better organised.
