Build a trusted, auditable AI programme before regulators require it.
Every Indian company deploying AI โ for hiring, credit scoring, fraud detection, customer service, or operations โ faces mounting legal and regulatory risk. ISO/IEC 42001 is the international standard for AI Management Systems. It gives your organisation a structured, auditable framework for responsible AI: governance policies, risk assessments, transparency controls, and evidence trails that satisfy regulators, clients, and board members.
A structured process โ so you always know what is happening and what comes next.
Map every AI system in use โ purchased tools, custom models, third-party APIs โ and classify by risk level and data sensitivity.
Assess each AI system against ISO 42001 requirements: bias risk, transparency, human oversight, data governance, and regulatory exposure.
Design your AI Management System โ policies, controls, roles, incident response, and a supplier AI risk programme.
Roll out controls, train teams, and build evidence documentation aligned with ISO 42001 and NIST AI RMF.
Internal audit and readiness review before external certification or regulatory examination.

ISO/IEC 42001:2023 is the international standard for Artificial Intelligence Management Systems (AIMS). Published in December 2023, it provides a framework for organisations to govern AI responsibly โ covering risk assessment, transparency, human oversight, supplier management, and continuous improvement.
If your company uses AI to process personal data, make or assist decisions about individuals, or provide AI-powered services to clients โ yes. DPDPA 2023 creates liability for automated decisions. RBI and SEBI are developing AI guidelines for BFSI. Enterprise clients globally are adding AI governance to vendor requirements.
ISO 27001 governs information security โ protecting data from unauthorised access, breach, and loss. ISO 42001 governs AI systems โ ensuring AI is used responsibly, transparently, and with appropriate human oversight. They are complementary: ISO 27001 covers the data that feeds AI; ISO 42001 covers how the AI itself is governed.
For most organisations, the AI governance framework can be designed and implemented in 8โ14 weeks, depending on the number of AI systems in scope and existing governance maturity.
DPDPA 2023 covers automated processing of personal data. RBI has issued guidance on model risk management for BFSI. SEBI is developing AI/ML guidelines for financial services. The EU AI Act affects Indian companies serving European clients. ISO 42001 provides a single framework that addresses all of these.
