Indian Telegraph Act does not cover the internet. Illegal tapping of phones is a violation of the Indian Telegraph Act.

an investigation by The Hindu reveals that the Internet activities of India’s roughly 160 million users are already being subjected to wide-ranging surveillance and monitoring, much of which is in violation of the government’s own rules and notifications for ensuring “privacy of communications”.

My understanding is that the laws for internet are still evolving in India.

Then your understanding is wrong...(no surprises there):

****From Uncle Wiki*********
India

In June, 2011, India passed a new privacy package that included various new rules that apply to companies and consumers. A key aspect of the new rules requires that any organization that processes personal information must obtain written consent from the data subjects before undertaking certain activities. Application of the rule is still uncertain.[5]

Previously, the Information Technology (Amendment) Act, 2008 made changes to the Information Technology Act, 2000 and added the following two sections relating to Privacy:

Section 43A, which deals with implementation of reasonable security practices for sensitive personal data or information and provides for the compensation of the person affected by wrongful loss or wrongful gain.[6]

Section 72A, which provides for imprisonment for a period up to 3 years and/or a fine up to Rs. 5,00,000 for a person who causes wrongful loss or wrongful gain by disclosing personal information of another person while providing services under the terms of lawful contract.[6]

Will wait for your next excuse/justification/twisted explanation...

your own material is saying the application of these rules is uncertain. the reason for the uncertainty is that the laws for the internet are still evolving in India.
