The rule starts on 13 May 2027, but it applies only after the Central Government notifies the entity or its class as a Significant Data Fiduciary. From that notification date, complete a data protection impact assessment and audit once in every 12-month period. No SDF notification existed on 1 September 2026.
This is conditional, not a general annual listed-company duty. Rule 4 starts on 2026-11-13 for Consent Managers. Rule 13 starts on 2027-05-13, and its 12-month cycle starts only when the entity is notified as an SDF.
