1. Legal Status of Fantasy Sports in India
Fantasy sports are categorized as games of skill, not games of chance, distinguishing them from gambling activities. Under the Public Gambling Act of 1867, games of skill are typically exempt from gambling laws, making fantasy sports legal in most Indian states. However, some states have specific regulations that may restrict participation in fantasy sports contests.
