Is playing on games-of-skill websites legal in India?
Provided that games being offered on the operator’s websites qualify as are Games of Skill, playing on such websites is legal in India Games of skill are excluded from the definition and purview of most gambling legislations and therefore legal to play. A Game of skill is a game or contest in which the winning outcome is predominantly based on the exhibition of superior skill, knowledge, and adroitness on the part of the winner relative to other participants in the game.
