11. LEGALITY OF GAME OF SKILL

Games of skill are legal, as they are excluded from the ambit of Indian gambling legislations including, the Public Gambling Act of 1867.The Indian Supreme Court in the cases of State of Andhra Pradesh v. K Satyanarayana (AIR 1968 SC 825) and KR Lakshmanan v. State of Tamil Nadu (AIR 1996 SC 1153) has held that a game in which success depends predominantly upon the superior knowledge, training, attention, experience and adroitness of the player shall be classified as a game of skill.

Recently the Punjab and Haryana High Court in the case of Shri Varun Gumber vs Union Territory of Chandigarh and Ors, inter alia held that the fantasy sports games being offered by the fantasy sports games operator were ‘games of skill’ under Indian law and did not constitute gambling. The Honourable High Court also held that offering of fantasy sports games on fantasy portals was a legitimate business activity and would be granted protection under Article 19(1)(g) of the Constitution of India.

The Pots (s) described above (across the PLAYWORLD11 Services) are games of skill as success of Participants depends primarily on their superior knowledge of the games of cricket, cricket statistics, knowledge of players’ relative form, players’ performance in a particular territory, conditions and/or format (such as ODIs, test cricket and Twenty20 in the cricket fantasy game), attention and dedication towards the Pots(s) and adroitness in playing the Pots(s). The Pots(s) also requires Participants to field well-balanced sides with limited resources to gain the maximum points

By participating in this Pots(s), each Participant acknowledges and agrees that he/she is participating in a game of skill.

12. ELIGIBILITY
