Government Issues Mandatory AI Content Labelling Rules
India’s IT Secretary S Krishnan said the government has completed industry consultations on mandatory labelling of AI-generated content and will issue related rules shortly. He said industry is broadly supportive but seeks clarity distinguishing substantive AI alterations from routine technical enhancements; draft rules would require prominent labels and metadata, covering at least 10% of visual display or the initial 10% of an audio clip. The move tightens platform accountability for synthetic media.
