Welcome to Carver's India Regulatory Updates for March 02, 2026.
The Delhi High Court has issued an interim injunction restraining the unauthorized use of Baba Ramdev's name, image, and voice in artificial intelligence deepfake content. The court has ordered the removal of all offending AI-generated deepfake content within 72 hours. Entities involved in AI content generation must ensure compliance with rights protection, prohibiting unauthorized use of personal identities in AI deepfakes.
In related legal developments, the Delhi High Court is currently reviewing a petition challenging the biometric data collection system authorized under Indian law. The petition raises concerns about privacy violations and potential misuse of sensitive biometric data involving AI systems. Authorities are required to respond to this legal challenge, with considerations focusing on privacy safeguards and constitutional compliance in the collection and storage of biometric data.
Turning to regulatory updates from the Securities and Exchange Board of India, or S-E-B-I, multiple circulars, orders, recovery proceedings, mutual fund filings, and public notices were published throughout February 2026, including on February 25 and 26. These updates impact a wide range of S-E-B-I regulated entities and market participants.
Key requirements from these orders include compliance with new circulars and orders issued by S-E-B-I, adherence to recovery proceedings and related enforcement actions, and filing and disclosure obligations for mutual funds and public issues. Specific directives include the disclosure of registered names and registration numbers by S-E-B-I regulated entities on social media platforms, valuation guidelines for physical gold and silver held by mutual fund schemes, and the categorization and rationalization of mutual fund schemes.
The orders have been issued by various quasi-judicial authorities, including the Enforcement Directorate and Chief General Manager, as well as Assessment Officers and the Chairperson and Members of S-E-B-I. Additionally, orders under Regulation 30A of the S-E-B-I Intermediaries Regulations 2008 have been published, reinforcing the need for entities to comply with circulars, respond to recovery proceedings, and meet disclosure and reporting requirements as per S-E-B-I regulations.
These ongoing regulatory enforcement actions and compliance requirements are critical for market participants to monitor closely to avoid penalties and mitigate legal and reputational risks.
