Bulk WhatsApp sender India Meta API setup guide

A bulk WhatsApp sender in India must comply with Meta’s Business Messaging Policy and the DPDP Act 2023 while delivering festival campaigns, utility updates and reactivation flows on the official Cloud API.

What is different about India

  • DPDP consent — purpose-limited opt-in with audit export.
  • TRAI-adjacent culture — customers expect clear unsubscribe on promotional sends.
  • Festival spikes — Diwali, Eid, IPL seasons need tier planning and quality-rating hygiene.
  • Language mix — Hindi, English and Hinglish templates in the same WABA.
  • INR pricing clarity — finance teams want flat platform fee + visible Meta conversation line item.

Setup steps for Indian SMBs

  1. Register or migrate WABA with legal business name matching GST/trade license.
  2. Submit marketing templates for offers and utility templates for order updates separately.
  3. Import opt-in lists with source column (website, store, missed-call, event QR).
  4. Configure suppress list for STOP replies and hard bounces.
  5. Launch pilot during business hours IST; scale after read rate baseline.
