In India, the local online gaming market has seen significant growth in recent years, with various state governments exploring regulated online gaming platforms. While British Columbia operates government-run online casinos through BCLC, the Indian market follows a different regulatory approach.
Several Indian states have started implementing their own gaming regulations, with some allowing skill-based games while prohibiting pure chance-based gambling. The local products in this sector include state lottery systems, rummy and poker platforms that are considered games of skill, and fantasy sports applications.
Indian online gaming companies have developed sophisticated platforms that cater to local preferences, incorporating regional languages, local payment methods like UPI and digital wallets, and culturally relevant game themes. These products must navigate complex legal frameworks that vary significantly across different states in India. |
