India: Intermediary, Telecom and Data-Protection Duties
Readiness training. LEA.Training does not grant any official certificate, licence or authority.
Your company holds user data in India. Police, courts and regulators will ask for it. This unit sets out the duties that Indian law puts on you, and the limits on those duties.
Focus: find the legal basis first. A portal, an email address or a phone call is only a channel. The duty comes from an Act, a rule or an order.
Parts of this subject are before the courts. We checked them on 8 October 2026. Rules in this field are amended often. Read the current text before you rely on a clause.
