More about gambling regulation

India's iGaming market has seen a steady growth in illegal online gambling (gambling in the country is authorized and regulated at the level of each state), which generates about $100 billion per year and is increasing by 20% annually.

The main reasons for this are the huge 28% tax levied on player deposits and regulatory uncertainties that prevent even large gambling companies from operating effectively in the iGaming market in India.

However, despite the tough conditions, the sector is attracting investment. For example, US companies have already invested $1.7 billion in the development of the industry. The growing population and the large proportion of young people who see gambling as an opportunity to earn easy money are likely to be significant incentives for investors.

Comment on the level of risk:

India is a heterogeneous market: state laws vary widely; central authorities and courts are tightening their control over social media and advertising. Foreign affiliates should carefully check the legal regime of specific states and avoid aggressive targeting. The risk of extradition to the country is medium - India can request extradition from CIS countries, the UK, the US and some other states with which it has treaties.
