An offshore-facing sportsbook for India with a cashback welcome offer
Not available lawfully hereIs Sky247 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, Sky247 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 Sky247 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.
