1. Legal Status of Fantasy Sports in India

Fantasy sports, including those hosted by FantasyGameCricket, are classified as games of skill rather than games of chance. Under the Public Gambling Act of 1867, games of skill are exempt from gambling laws in most parts of India. This distinction ensures the legality of fantasy sports, as success is determined by a user’s knowledge, strategy, and understanding of the game.

2. Jurisdictional Restrictions

• Restricted States: Residents of certain states, such as Andhra Pradesh, Assam, Odisha, Telangana, Nagaland, and Sikkim, are prohibited from participating in paid contests due to local regulations. However, free-to-play contests remain accessible to all users in these states.
• User Responsibility: It is the user’s responsibility to ensure compliance with local laws before participating in contests. By entering contests on FantasyGameCricket, users confirm that they reside in a jurisdiction where such activities are permitted.

3. Age Restrictions

Participation in fantasy sports contests on FantasyGameCricket is restricted to individuals aged 18 and above. By registering and playing, you confirm that you meet the legal age requirement.

4. Games of Skill
