Balanced Regulations Nurturing India’s Online Games Industry

Last year, the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) proposed a self-regulatory mechanism for online gaming in India. Despite being a multi-billion-dollar industry, online gaming in India is not yet centrally regulated. Entities like the MeitY and Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) are in motion to establish a regulatory framework. In the meantime, state laws and judiciary systems provide much-needed clarity on matters related to gaming in India.
