Experts urge Indian regulators to adopt laws on autonomous AI
Experts are calling on Indian regulators to set up dedicated laws for autonomous AI agents, as these systems are now handling tasks in payments, banking, and supply chains.
Right now, India relies on broad guidelines meant for humans, which just aren't cutting it when AI acts independently.
India lacks specific AI liability law
With no specific law in place, it's hard to figure out who's responsible when an AI agent makes a mistake or causes harm.
Existing laws weren't built for this kind of tech. Experts say India needs its own AI rules, but a dedicated statute is likely still a few years away (as of April 2026).
Other countries like China already require companies to track and explain their AI's actions, but India hasn't caught up yet, leaving developers and users in a tricky spot.
