  "account": "The Indian Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) has launched the registration portal for consent managers under the Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act, 2023. Effective from November 13, the framework allows eligible Indian companies to apply for registration with the Data Protection Board of India (DPBI). The portal, dpbi.gov.in, enables companies to submit applications to the DPBI. A consent manager is a DPBI-registered entity that empowers data principals, individuals affected by data processing, to manage their personal data consent through an interoperable platform. The framework aims to provide data principals with enhanced control over their data and promote accountability in the digital ecosystem. Companies with a net worth of at least ₹2 Cr and adequate technical, operational, and financial capacity can apply for consent manager registration. The Data Protection Board of India will evaluate applications based on the stipulated requirements, approving those that meet the eligibility criteria. A publicly accessible list of registered consent managers will be maintained on the DPBI's website.",
