India's Gambling Ban Backfires, Boosting Offshore Site Usage

[MissExposé]

India’s recent online gambling ban has inadvertently driven players toward offshore sites. The move, intended to regulate the growing gambling industry, has disrupted both legal platforms and fantasy sports operators. Critics argue the ban harms the domestic economy, especially cricket-related businesses, and increases risks for consumers using unregulated offshore services. Without local options, many users now turn to international operators, potentially exposing themselves to fraud and data misuse. Industry leaders are calling for balanced regulation instead of outright bans, emphasizing responsible gaming and taxation as more effective solutions. The current approach, they warn, may backfire long term.
