X stops publishing India compliance reports after synthetic media rules

X has not published any monthly compliance report since India's synthetic-media rules took effect on February 20, 2026, Medianama reports. The social media platform's last report covered the period ending February 25, 2026. Under Rule 4(1)(d) of the IT Rules, 2021, significant intermediaries must publish a monthly report detailing complaints received and action taken. X itself states on its transparency page that it files these reports under that rule.

Five reporting periods have passed without a filing: February 26 to March 25, March 26 to April 25, April 26 to May 25, May 26 to June 25, and June 26 to July 25. A sixth period is currently running. In contrast, WhatsApp and Meta have continued to file their reports on time. The missing months coincide exactly with the period when X's new obligations to label and remove synthetic content applied, meaning there is no public data on how X is enforcing these rules.

MediaNama notes that X is simultaneously fighting the Sahyog portal case in the Supreme Court over content-takedown architecture. The outlet has sent questions to both X and the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) about the missing reports and enforcement figures, and says it will update the story when it receives responses.
