The India sports betting market size is projected to exhibit a growth rate (CAGR) of 9.1% during 2024-2032. The increasing legalization and regulation of sports betting in India, rising internet penetration, and growing consumer interest in other sports leagues represent some of the key factors driving the market.

Sports betting is a form of gambling where individuals wager on the outcome of sporting events, ranging from popular team sports such as football, basketball, and cricket to individual competitions like tennis and horse racing. The basic concept of sports betting involves predicting the outcome of a sports event and staking money on that prediction. Odds, determined by bookmakers or betting platforms, indicate the probability of a particular outcome occurring. If the prediction is correct, the bettor receives a payout based on the odds and wagered amount. Conversely, incorrect predictions result in the loss of the bet amount. Sports betting offers an exciting and immersive experience for sports enthusiasts, adding excitement and engagement to games and matches. However, it also carries risks, and responsible gambling practices are crucial to ensure that individuals participate in sports betting responsibly and within their means. The appeal of sports betting lies in its dynamic nature, offering a wide variety of betting options, including moneyline bets, point spreads, over/under bets, and prop bets, among others. This diversity allows individuals to customize their bet based on their knowledge and preferences, adding an element of skill to the gambling experience. At present, sports betting is gaining immense traction across India due to improved accessibility and the growing popularity of online platforms.
