By 7Unit Innovations · Think Deep. Build Right. Scale Safe.

7UNIT / ENFORCEMENT CLOCK

The clock is running

India's DPDP Act is now in enforcement rollout. Two dates matter to your business.

13 November 2026

Consent Manager framework

Becomes mandatory for consent-based processing.

13 May 2027

Full enforcement

Penalties up to ₹250 crore per violation — and violations stack.

Most Indian companies have not started. The ones that wait will pay law firms crisis rates in 2027. The ones that move now fix gaps on their own schedule and budget.

7UNIT / FAQ

Questions about the DPDP Gap Assessment

Who needs a DPDP Gap Assessment?

Any organisation that collects or processes personal data of individuals in India — websites, apps, CRM, marketing tools, vendors, and spreadsheets included. If you process digital personal data as a business in India, you are a Data Fiduciary under the Act.

How is this different from hiring a law firm?

Law firms interpret the Act. We test your actual systems against it — consent flows, access controls, retention, vendor contracts, and breach readiness — and return evidence-backed gaps with a priced remediation roadmap. For statutory legal sign-off we work alongside your counsel.

What do we receive at the end?

A board-ready DPDP Readiness Score, a Gap Report (every failing control with evidence and risk rating), a priced remediation roadmap, and a 90-minute executive readout with your leadership team.

How long does it take and what does it cost?

SME (single entity): ₹1,50,000 in 2 weeks. Mid-market: ₹2,25,000 in 3 weeks. Enterprise / multi-entity: ₹3,00,000 in 3 weeks. Fixed price — 50% to begin, 50% on delivery. No hourly billing.

When do enforcement deadlines matter?

13 November 2026 — Consent Manager framework becomes mandatory for consent-based processing. 13 May 2027 — full enforcement, with penalties up to ₹250 crore per violation. Moving now means you fix gaps on your schedule instead of under crisis rates.

Can 7Unit also build the remediation?

Yes. Consent architecture, audit trails, RBAC, retention controls, and breach workflows are what we engineer for regulated clients. The assessment is the diagnosis; remediation engagements are scoped separately from the roadmap.
