Consent manager platforms, ranked for Indian buyers.

Most CMP comparisons on the web are written by the CMP or by an affiliate publisher. This is not one of those. We evaluated 15 platforms hands-on, against what an Indian DPO or founder actually needs. We also include our own product, transparently marked, at the score it earned.

How we scored

India focus (40%) — DPDP Section 5 fit, Indian-language notices, INR pricing, local support.

DPDP depth (30%) — consent versioning, withdrawal, DSR link, audit log.

Price fit (20%) — value for an Indian SMB or mid-market buyer.

Vendor trust (10%) — track record, funding stability, support quality.

#	Platform	Origin	India fit	DPDP depth	Price	Trust	Score	Best for
1	dcomply Consent Management dcomply our product	India	●●●●●	●●●●○	●●●●○	●●●●●	4.50	Full disclosure: this is our own module. Ships as part of the dcomply DPDP suite. Strong on Section 5 notice localisation (23 Indian languages), consent versioning, withdrawal, DSR link. Weaker on pure ad-tech IAB TCF integration.
2	CookieYes CookieYes	India	●●●●○	●●●○○	●●●●●	●●●●○	3.90	Bengaluru company, dominant in the SMB / plugin space. Simple to install, fair pricing, focused strictly on cookie consent. If you need only a banner, this is the pragmatic pick. Does not extend to full DPDP programme.
3	iubenda iubenda	Italy	●●●○○	●●●●○	●●●●○	●●●●○	3.60	Italian CMP with strong policy-generation and consent-log features. Reasonable pricing. Widely used in agency work. DPDP-specific tuning is not their focus yet.
4	consentmanager.net Jaohawi	Germany	●●●○○	●●●●○	●●●●○	●●●●○	3.60	Long-standing European CMP. Full TCF and Google Consent Mode. Straightforward pricing.
5	OneTrust OneTrust	USA	●●●○○	●●●●●	●●○○○	●●●●○	3.50	The market leader by revenue. Broad feature set (CMP, DSR, DPIA, TPRM). India-fit acceptable but pricing and complexity are the wrong shape for anything smaller than a large enterprise. Long implementation time.
6	Securiti.ai Securiti	USA	●●●○○	●●●●●	●●○○○	●●●●○	3.50	Very strong data-map + PII discovery. AI-first pitch. Rich CMP. Same enterprise-only shape as OneTrust. India presence is growing.
7	Complianz Complianz	Netherlands	●●●○○	●●●○○	●●●●●	●●●●○	3.50	WordPress-first plugin. Free tier is generous. If your site is on WordPress and you want low-friction, this is a straight recommendation.
8	Didomi Didomi	France	●●●○○	●●●●●	●●○○○	●●●●○	3.50	Strong European CMP with excellent developer experience and TCF certification. Priced for enterprise. Overqualified for typical Indian SMB.
9	Usercentrics Usercentrics	Germany	●●●○○	●●●●○	●●●○○	●●●●○	3.40	German CMP with clean UX and TCF v2.2 support. Priced for European mid-market. Works well for Indian sites that also serve EU traffic.
10	Cookiebot Cyberot	Denmark	●●●○○	●●●●○	●●●○○	●●●●○	3.40	Automated site scan + banner + consent log. Solid for GDPR sites. India audit is fair but scanner labels are Europe-shaped.
11	TrustArc TrustArc	USA	●●●○○	●●●●○	●●○○○	●●●●○	3.20	Established enterprise CMP + broader privacy platform. Pricing is enterprise-only.
12	Quantcast Choice Quantcast	USA	●●○○○	●●●●○	●●●●○	●●●○○	3.10	Free CMP for publishers. Ad-tech native. India fit is neutral.
13	Sourcepoint Sourcepoint	USA	●●○○○	●●●●●	●●○○○	●●●●○	3.10	Publisher-heavy, ad-tech deep, subscription/paywall support. Enterprise only.
14	Termly Termly	USA	●●○○○	●●●○○	●●●●●	●●●○○	3.00	Popular with US bloggers and small ecommerce. Includes a policy generator alongside the banner. India-fit is limited.
15	Axeptio Axeptio	France	●●○○○	●●●○○	●●●●○	●●●○○	2.80	Design-forward French CMP. Small vendor. Reasonable for a boutique site.

Scores use a five-point scale on each dimension. Composite is India focus × 0.40 + DPDP depth × 0.30 + price × 0.20 + trust × 0.10, rounded to two places. Max score 5.00.

If you are a large enterprise

OneTrust, Securiti.ai, TrustArc and Didomi will all serve you. Pick on integration and vendor fit rather than features. Budget for a six-month implementation and a full-time program owner.

If you are mid-market Indian

The honest answer, given we are one of the options: dcomply's suite gives you consent plus 15 other DPDP modules and BFSI sector coverage at a single price. If you only need a banner, CookieYes is the cleanest pure-play choice.

If you are a WordPress SMB

Complianz or CookieYes as a plugin. Both are DPDP-aware enough for a starter setup. Do not over-engineer. Layer in a real DPDP programme when your traffic or revenue justifies it.
