An offshore sportsbook and casino serving India with a large welcome package, and limited independent review coverage
Not available lawfully hereIs Puntit legal in India?
No. Real-money gambling is banned in India. Under the Promotion and Regulation of Online Gaming Act 2025 (PROGA), in force since 1 October 2025, Puntit cannot lawfully offer you a welcome bonus here, and you cannot lawfully claim one.
PROGA bans all real-money gaming nationwide and criminalises its operation, promotion and financial facilitation. Banks, UPI and card networks are barred from processing money-gaming transactions, and by 28 March 2026 the government had blocked or actioned 8,376 betting and gambling URLs. source
Any Puntit bonus you see advertised for India is offered from an offshore site operating against local law. Your payments can be blocked, your account can vanish with a mirror domain, and no India regulator can help you recover funds. We therefore show no offer and no sign-up link on this page.

Pros
- Genuinely licensed under an identified operator (White Star B.V., Curacao CGCB) — independently confirmed
- Combined sportsbook and casino offering
Cons
- casino.guru: Below Average Safety Index (5.9/10), unfair terms flagged
- Trustpilot: complaints of deposits allegedly not credited and an accusation of frequent domain-name changes
- A documented case citing a demanding 150,000-unit turnover requirement with a 5.00 maximum bet
- Notably restrictive minimum odds requirement (2.50+) on the sports bonus
Our verdict
Puntit, operated by White Star B.V. under a direct Curacao Gaming Control Board licence (OGL/2023/159/0076, new LOK regime) since early 2024 — independently confirmed, is an offshore sportsbook and casino serving India with a genuinely large welcome package, though its 2.50+ minimum-odds requirement on the sports bonus is notably restrictive. A real, disclosed caution: casino.guru gives it a Below Average Safety Index (5.9/10) and advises caution over unfair terms, and Trustpilot documents complaints of deposits allegedly not credited, an accusation of frequent domain-name changes, and a case citing a demanding 150,000-unit turnover requirement with a 5.00 maximum bet. Norway correctly shows no locally-regulated bonus given its state gambling monopoly. Real-money gaming is banned in India under the Promotion and Regulation of Online Gaming Act, 2025, in force since 1 October 2025, so there is no lawful welcome offer for an Indian reader to claim.
