AI Legislations – India (Acts & Rules Compliance)

What are India’s AI Acts and Rules?

India’s AI legal and regulatory framework governs the lawful, ethical, and responsible use of AI through a combination of technology laws, criminal statutes, content regulations, and workplace protection laws.

While India does not yet have a single standalone AI law, AI systems and AI-generated content are regulated under existing legislation, including:

  • Information Technology Act, 2000 and allied rules
  • IT (Intermediary Guidelines and Digital Media Ethics Code) Amendment Rules, 2026
  • Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023
  • Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act, 2012
  • Representation of the People Act, 1951
  • Indecent Representation of Women (Prohibition) Act, 1986
  • Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace Act, 2013


These laws collectively address AI misuse, deepfakes, misinformation, cybercrime, impersonation, harassment, election interference, and unlawful content generation.
