India has chosen not to pass a separate AI law for now. That does not mean AI is unregulated. The DPDP Act governs personal data that goes into AI tools. The IT Act and the 2026 amendments to the IT Rules deal with impersonation and synthetic media. Consumer, copyright, employment and anti-discrimination laws still apply. And the India AI Governance Guidelines, released by MeitY in November 2025, set out what the Government expects of organisations that develop or deploy AI.

The AI Governance and Acceptable Use Policy Pack turns all of that into a working programme for an Indian SME: find the AI you use, classify it by risk, write rules staff will follow, buy tools safely, keep humans meaningfully in charge, and handle incidents. Every legal statement is cited to the official text.

What’s inside

Four files. One AI rulebook.

The AI Governance Guide: 95 pages

The laws that already apply to AI: IT Act offences, the 2026 synthetic content rules, and the Guidelines’ own map of laws to AI harms

A four-source method for finding shadow AI, and a four-tier risk classification
Writing an acceptable use policy people actually follow
Roles, committees and board reporting, sized for small organisations
Buying AI tools: the questions that matter and the contract terms to secure

Why teams use it

Honest about the law. Binding duties are kept separate from government guidance and from EdgeBefore practice, so you know which is which.
Built for SMEs. One accountable person and a monthly meeting can run it. Controls scale with risk.
Ready to adopt. Policies and forms you can adapt in an afternoon, each linked to the chapter that explains it.
Joined up. Links to the EdgeBefore Breach Response Kit for incident reporting and to the DPDP Starter Kit for wider data protection work.

Questions

Before you buy.

Is this legal advice?

No. The pack is general information to help you build an AI governance programme. It is not legal advice and does not replace advice from a qualified advocate on your facts. No regulatory or other outcome is guaranteed.

Does it make us ISO/IEC 42001 certified?

No. The pack does not reproduce the standard and makes no certification claim. It explains the standard’s public description and how the pack’s documents line up with a Plan-Do-Check-Act management system, which gives you a head start if you later pursue certification.

Is there an AI law in India?

Not a dedicated statute as at 23 October 2026. Existing laws apply to AI use, and the India AI Governance Guidelines set the Government’s expectations. The pack explains both.

We are a small business. Is this too much?

The guide shows how to scale it. A small firm can start with the acceptable use policy, an approved tool list and a simple register.

How current is it?

Current to 23 October 2026, including the February 2026 amendments to the IT Rules and CERT-In’s October 2026 advisory on AI agents.

What format are the files?

PDF: guide, policies and templates, checklists and quick card, delivered as a single ZIP.

Can we share it across our organisation?

The pack is licensed for internal use by the purchasing organisation; policies and templates may be adapted for that organisation’s own use.
