Healthcare software and app development in India: Patient data needs consent and care. We build both in from day one.

India's digital health network shares a patient's records only with their consent. The DPDP Act adds duties for personal data, and new NMC rules limit how doctors and hospitals promote themselves. We build apps, portals and AI tools for hospitals, clinics, labs and health startups with these rules in mind.

What the rules ask of you

The rules shaping your software.

The regulations and standards that change what your systems, website and data handling need to do, each with its date and a link to the source.

01 Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission (ABDM) since September 2021 ABHA is a 14-digit health ID. Records linked to it are shared only with the patient's consent, which is time-bound and can be withdrawn. Facilities join the Health Facility Registry and doctors join the Healthcare Professionals Registry. The Digital Health Incentive Scheme pays hospitals, labs and software companies for linked digital records. Source
02 DPDP Act 2023 and DPDP Rules 2025 main duties from May 2027 The Rules were notified in November 2025 with an 18-month phase-in. You will need clear consent notices, reasonable security safeguards and plain-language breach notices to patients. A child's data needs a parent's verifiable consent, with a limited exemption for healthcare. Penalties go up to ₹250 crore. Source
03 Telemedicine Practice Guidelines 25 March 2020 Only registered medical practitioners may consult by telemedicine. Platforms must check each doctor before listing them and show their name, qualification, registration number and contact details. Apps based on AI or machine learning may not counsel patients or prescribe medicines. Source
04 CDSCO guidance on medical device software July 2026 Software with a medical purpose can be a medical device under the Medical Devices Rules 2017, in risk classes A to D. General wellness and fitness apps are outside scope when they have no medical purpose. AI tools must show they work in settings like the ones they will be used in. Source
05 NMC Guidelines on Ethical Advertising and Public Communication 6 October 2026 Doctors and hospitals may publish factual, checkable details such as qualifications, registration, departments and fees. Patient testimonials, paid or fake reviews, guaranteed-cure claims and before-and-after images are not allowed. AI-made promotional content is barred, and other AI-made material must be labelled.

What we build

What we build for hospitals, clinics, labs and health tech startups.

01 ABDM integration ABHA creation and verification, record linking and consent flows for your hospital system, lab software or app. Built and tested in ABDM's sandbox before you go live.
02 Telemedicine and patient apps Video consultations, e-prescriptions, bookings and reports, with doctor checks and consent records built in, and WhatsApp reminders in English, Hindi and other Indian languages.
03 Websites that follow the NMC rules Clear doctor profiles with registration details, department and fee pages, and no testimonials or ranking claims. Your medical team approves every page before it goes live.
04 AI tools with the right checks Note summaries, triage support and admin assistants, with an early look at whether the intended use makes the software a medical device under CDSCO guidance.
Free 30-minute call

Not sure where to start? Talk it through with an engineer.

Thirty minutes with a senior engineer, free and with no obligation. Bring the problem, not a brief.

What we will not claim.

We do not certify anything, and we do not claim any ABDM, CDSCO or NMC approval. No app makes you compliant with the DPDP Act or the NMC guidelines on its own. Clinical decisions stay with your doctors, and legal sign-off stays with your lawyer. We build software, and the records around it, that support your duties.

Healthcare and health tech questions

Frequently asked questions.

Can you integrate our software with ABDM?

Yes. We build ABHA creation and verification, record linking and the consent flows ABDM needs, then test them in ABDM's sandbox. The National Health Authority decides when your system joins the live network, so we plan for its checks rather than promise a date. Linked records may also qualify for the Digital Health Incentive Scheme.

Is our health app a medical device?

It depends on its intended purpose. Under CDSCO's July 2026 guidance, software with a medical purpose, such as diagnosis or monitoring, can be a medical device. General wellness and fitness apps are outside scope. We flag the question early in discovery. Confirm the position with a regulatory specialist before you launch.

Can our hospital website show patient reviews?

Not as promotion. The NMC guidelines of 6 October 2026 bar patient testimonials, paid or fake reviews and before-and-after images in the publicity of doctors and hospitals. Your website can show factual details such as qualifications, registration numbers, departments, facilities and fees. We build pages that make those facts easy to find.

Where will patient data be stored?

In Indian cloud regions, such as AWS Mumbai or Hyderabad, Azure Pune or Google Cloud Mumbai, when your data must stay in India. Access is limited by role and logged. We name every provider, including any AI service, in a Data Processing Addendum you sign before work starts.

Do the DPDP Act duties apply to us yet?

Most of them start in May 2027, 18 months after the DPDP Rules were notified in November 2025. Building consent notices, security safeguards and breach alerts into a new system now costs far less than adding them later. CERT-In's 6-hour incident reporting already applies today. Take advice from your lawyer on your position.
