Advocate Joginder Poswal
Data Protection & Corporate Law Practitioner
Independent Bar; contributing author to dcomply Academy
Advocate Joginder Poswal practises before the Punjab & Haryana High Court and advises Indian and cross-border businesses on data protection, corporate compliance and consumer law. He was among the earliest practitioners to publish operator-grade guidance on the Digital Personal Data Protection Act 2023, and his written work is cited widely in DPO circles and by in-house counsel navigating the Act's consent, DPIA and breach-reporting mechanics.
His book "DPDP Compliance for Indian Businesses" is used as a working reference by compliance officers at listed companies, unlisted PSUs and mid-market SaaS firms. On dcomply Academy he authors the DPDP Act 2023 Professional Certification, the DPDP Rules 2025 / DPO Practitioner Certification, the CERT-In Directions Practitioner Certification, the GDPR + DPDP Crosswalk Practitioner Certification, and the Companies Act + MCA Practitioner Certification.
His approach on the Academy is deliberately operator-first: every lesson is anchored to the exact statutory Section, Rule or notification, and where a Supreme Court or High Court judgement is load-bearing the citation includes the paragraph number rather than just the case name. Where the law changes materially, he issues a delta update to existing learners at no charge.
