AI Impact
Regulatory Analysis
Where legal practice meets technological reality. Fourteen critical domains where artificial intelligence intersects with Indian regulatory frameworks, commercial law, and institutional governance.
The integration of artificial intelligence into India's commercial and regulatory landscape presents questions that existing jurisprudence was never designed to answer. From the moment an algorithm makes a decision affecting a contractual relationship to the admissibility of machine-generated evidence in litigation, we witness the emergence of a new legal terrain that demands both doctrinal rigor and practical adaptability.
This compendium examines fourteen critical intersections where AI technology meets Indian law. Each analysis draws upon existing statutory frameworks, recent judicial developments, regulatory guidance from bodies including the Reserve Bank of India, SEBI, and IRDAI, and the emerging architecture of the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023. These are not theoretical exercises; they are the live issues confronting general counsel, compliance officers, and litigation teams across corporate India today.
