Lighthouse Jaipur is an independent research platform focused on the Indian iGaming and gambling market. The name is our method: a lighthouse does not move the ships — it shows them where the rocks are. We map regulation state by state, document the payment infrastructure the market runs on, profile the games Indian players actually play, and assess operators against a published methodology.
What we are
A digital intelligence team. Our output is research: regulatory analysis, market structure notes, comparative assessments and reference catalogues, each carrying sources, dates and a verification status.
What we are not
We are not a gambling operator, we take no wagers, and we do not sell endorsements. Online money games are prohibited in India under the Promotion and Regulation of Online Gaming Act, 2025, in force since 1 May 2026; nothing we publish is an invitation to gamble.
How we work
Every record on this platform — a state guide, a venue entry, an operator review — is structured data with an explicit verification status. Material that has not completed verification is labelled Needs Verification or Placeholder and is never presented as an editorial conclusion. Read the methodology and the editorial policy for the details.
