The 2025 amendments to Rule 3(1)(d) of the IT Rules mark a subtle but significant shift in India’s takedown architecture: a single “authorised intimation” can now determine the fate of online speech. By replacing the ambiguous “actual knowledge” standard with a system of senior-level authorisation and reasoned notices, the government aims to curb arbitrary removals while equipping intermediaries with clearer legal cues. Yet the reforms also consolidate state discretion, introduce new bureaucratic layers, and leave users without meaningful avenues to contest takedowns.
