Author(s) Ashwini Kumar

Abstract The European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is considered to be the most comprehensive & strong privacy and data protection law in the world, which doesn’t only regulate within the territory of EU but also has an extraterritorial effect. GDPR has influenced privacy & data protection legislation of many nations. India is ready with the draft Digital Personal Data Protection Bill, 2022 (DPDP Bill) which is the latest in a series of draft legislations presented and removed since mid-2018. In this article we discuss the key differences between the GDPR & DPDP Bill by analysing the different approaches and methods prescribed in both the legislations to understand their scope & applicability, concerned parties, classification of personal data, legal basis for data processing, children’s rights, reporting breach, cross-border data transfer, penalties, etc. In conclusion, we can say that the GDPR is relatively more detailed in its instructions, whereas the DPDP Bill establishes certain fundamental concepts. The DPDP Bill offers a glimpse of hope for balancing the interests of data subjects while acknowledging the practical challenges that businesses may encounter.
