“India's new Consent Management Systems framework isn't just another compliance requirement – it's rewiring how business gets done. Our analysis focuses on balancing market interpretation of technical specifications on one hand, and substantive transformation lying in consent management as a mechanism for competitive differentiation and institutional trust architecture, on the other.
