Abstract: This paper, using secondary data and a primary survey, presents the changing perceptions of stakeholders related to data localisation – before and during COVID-19. It assesses India's strength in manufacturing and exports (goods and services). It analyses how the discussions on data localisation evolved in the G20 and identifies commonalities and differences across G20 countries. It identifies the challenges for India, makes recommendations for the upcoming G20 Saudi Presidency, and looks at how India can leverage on its strengths as it takes over the G20 Presidency in 2022.
