Information Technology law governs the legal landscape for digital innovation, computer systems, software applications, mobile apps, and offences committed in cyberspace. In today’s fast-evolving digital environment, businesses are increasingly dependent on technology—not just for operations, but as the foundation of value creation. With this shift come complex challenges related to data privacy, data theft, platform regulation, and cyber fraud.
The Information Technology Act, 2000 (commonly referred to as the IT Act) forms the backbone of India’s tech regulation, addressing everything from electronic records and digital signatures to intermediary responsibilities and cybercrime. The IT Act also plays a critical role in shaping e-commerce laws by providing legal recognition to online transactions and defining the rights and liabilities of intermediaries, including online marketplaces and platforms.
