The Fantasy Sports Trade Association (FSTA) plays a significant role in the Indian fantasy sports market, which has seen rapid growth in recent years. Indian fantasy sports platforms like Dream11, MyTeam11, and MPL have gained massive popularity, offering users the chance to create virtual teams based on real-life cricket, football, and kabaddi matches. These platforms allow participants to compete for cash prizes and other rewards, leveraging the country\“s deep passion for sports.
In India, fantasy sports are regulated under the skill-based gaming exemption, distinguishing them from gambling. The FSTA supports these platforms by establishing industry standards, promoting fair play, and advocating for legal clarity. Indian products in this sector often integrate local sports leagues, such as the Indian Premier League (IPL) and Pro Kabaddi League, to engage users. The association also focuses on consumer protection, ensuring transparent operations and responsible gaming practices across the industry. |
