The council has urged the government to legalise and regulate the gaming market across India, particularly sports betting

The UK India Business Council (UKIBC) on January 24 made a formal submission to the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) on the draft online gaming rules, proposing new regulations for the online gaming industry.
In its submission, UKIBC proposed a number of key recommendations including the need for clarity in definitions and wider governance related provisions of the draft rules, that centre on enabling certainty and ease of doing business.
The submission builds upon the recommendations of UKIBC’s “Gaming for Growth” report, released in April of 2022. The council has urged the government to legalise and regulate the gaming market across India, particularly sports betting, in line with the Law Commission’s 2018 recommendations.
