Skill-Based Game Classification

On this platform, we classify our games as "Games of Skill," meaning that outcomes are driven primarily by players' abilities, not by chance. Participants in our online fantasy sports competitions rely on their strategic thinking, expertise, and knowledge to succeed, ensuring that victory is determined by skill rather than luck.

Globally, online fantasy sports are widely recognized as a legal form of entertainment, although some regions have specific exceptions. These games are skill-based, where users build teams and earn points based on the real-world performance of their selected athletes. The key to success is understanding the game, analyzing player performance, and applying strategy.

Our platform operates fully within the law, offering fantasy games in a variety of sports, including cricket, football, kabaddi, volleyball, basketball, and hockey. Players create their teams before matches start, accumulating points based on the real-world achievements of their chosen athletes. The user with the highest-scoring team wins, and success depends entirely on knowledge, strategy, and skill, which is what qualifies our platform as a legitimate provider of skill-based games.

Compliance with Indian Laws

In India, skill-based games such as fantasy sports are generally legal, with certain exceptions in a few states. The Public Gambling Act of 1867 ("PGA, 1867") is the primary legislation regulating gambling, criminalizing "public wagering" and the operation of gaming houses. However, fantasy sports are exempt from these restrictions because they are based on player skill and knowledge rather than pure chance.

State-Specific Regulations

While skill-based gaming is legal in most of India, some states have unclear or ambiguous laws regarding pay-to-play fantasy sports contests. These states include Sikkim, Assam, Odisha, Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, and Nagaland. To ensure compliance with local regulations and avoid any legal issues, this platform restricts users from these states from participating in paid contests. This policy helps us maintain a safe, compliant, and secure gaming experience for all users across India.
