India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (DPDPA) is reshaping how companies handle user data. Startups are now scrambling to build compliance systems, and a new market worth ₹10,000 Cr is forming around it. IDfy, a verification startup founded in 2011, is one of the players betting big on this shift. The company launched Privy, a privacy and data governance platform, built across three pillars: data governance, privacy management, and a compliance copilot. Cofounder Ashok Hariharan told Inc42 that Privy contributes about 10% of IDfy's revenue today but is expected to scale quickly. IDfy was also declared the winner of an Indian government competition for building consent management systems under DPDPA, 2023, in March 2026. The DPDP Rules 2025, notified on November 14, 2025, give organisations an 18-month phased rollout. Consent manager obligations kick in from November 2026, with core requirements due by May 13, 2027. An EY India report found that awareness of the Act is growing, but readiness remains uneven. Other players in this space include Perfios, which launched Perfios DPDP Suite, Cross Identity's Vishwaas AI, Redacto, NeoKred, and Tata Consultancy Services, which is reportedly seeking a consent manager permit. SMEs face the steepest compliance challenge. IDfy plans to open-source parts of its technology stack to help smaller businesses meet minimum compliance requirements. IDfy's revenue from operations rose to ₹188.5 Cr in FY25, and the company says it has crossed ₹200 Cr in FY26.

The US Supreme Court has blocked President Trump's attempt to fire Federal Reserve governor Lisa Cook, who faced unproven mortgage fraud allegations. The ruling preserves Fed independence for now and keeps a politically charged removal case alive in the courts.
The US Supreme Court, splitting along ideological lines, has allowed the Trump administration to end Temporary Protected Status for Haitian and Syrian immigrants.
The U.S. Supreme Court ruled against TPS protections in a case centered on Haitian migrants, leaving 1.3 million people from over a dozen countries vulnerable to deportation.
