Why GDPR Compliance Is Critical for Indian Businesses with EU Exposure

Any Indian organisation that processes personal data of EU residents — including IT companies with European clients, e-commerce platforms selling to Europe, and BPOs processing EU customer data — is subject to GDPR regardless of where the processing takes place. Fines of up to 4 percent of global annual turnover apply.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does GDPR apply to Indian companies?

Yes. GDPR applies to any organisation — regardless of location — that processes personal data of EU residents in connection with offering goods or services to them, or monitoring their behaviour. Indian IT, SaaS, BPO and e-commerce companies serving EU customers are directly subject to GDPR.

What are the penalties for GDPR non-compliance?

GDPR penalties are up to 4 percent of global annual turnover or EUR 20 million — whichever is higher — for the most serious violations. EU supervisory authorities have issued billion-euro fines against major companies. Indian companies are not exempt.

Which EU supervisory authorities accept your GDPR compliance documentation?

Our GDPR compliance documentation is structured to meet the requirements of EU supervisory authorities across member states — including the CNIL (France), BfDI (Germany), ICO (UK) and the Irish DPC. Standard Contractual Clauses are prepared to the current EU Commission approved templates. Data Protection Impact Assessments are prepared to Article 35 requirements accepted by all EU supervisory authorities.

Do we need a Data Protection Officer?

A DPO is required if you are a public authority, if your core activities involve large-scale systematic monitoring of individuals, or if your core activities involve large-scale processing of special category data. We assess whether you require a DPO and can provide a virtual DPO service if needed.

What is a Standard Contractual Clause and do we need one?

Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) are EU Commission-approved contract templates that provide the legal mechanism for transferring personal data from the EU to India. Any Indian organisation that receives personal data from EU-based clients or processes EU data on behalf of EU controllers needs SCCs in place. We draft SCCs and transfer impact assessments tailored to your specific data flows.

How do we maintain GDPR compliance as our business changes?

GDPR compliance is an ongoing obligation. New products, new markets, new data processing activities and new vendors all require assessment. Privacy notices must be updated when processing purposes change. DPIAs are required for new high-risk activities. We offer annual GDPR maintenance programmes to keep your compliance posture current as your business evolves.
