What's different about an NDA in India
Indian Contract Act section 27 voids restraints of trade, meaning post-termination non-compete language is generally unenforceable in India, so confidentiality obligations in an Indian NDA are drafted as independent, freestanding duties rather than folded into a non-compete. The 2018 amendment to the Specific Relief Act made specific performance a general statutory remedy, strengthening a party's ability to actually enforce confidentiality rather than just claim damages after a breach.
