in your user gaming account for the purpose of
participating in Cash Games on the Platform.
You may add cash in your user gaming account, using
credit cards, debit cards, prepaid cash cards, or
internet banking payment methods, that are processed
through third-party payment gateways, subject to monthly
limits, as may be prescribed by us, in our sole
discretion, from time to time.
We are not responsible for any delay or denial by such
third-party gateways. The processing of payments will be
solely as per their procedures and terms of their
respective policies, without any responsibility or risk
attributable to us, in any manner whatsoever. In the
event of any issue, in connection with cash addition, a
complaint may be sent to us, in accordance with our
complaint procedure provided in the contact details
section at the bottom of this Agreement. Once a
payment/transaction is authorized, the funds are
credited to your user gaming account and are available
for you to play Cash Games.
We want you to play responsibly on the Platform and have
the right to cancel a transaction at any point of time
solely according to our discretion in which case the
payment has been successful, the transaction shall be
reversed, and the money will be credited back to the
payment instrument. You are not entitled to a refund of
such transaction through any other mode.
You understand and agree that cash deposits in your user
gaming account maintained with us are solely for the
purposes of Cash Game participation on our Platform.
You also understand and agree that you cannot transfer
any sum from your user gaming account with us to the
account of another registered user on the Platform
except as may be expressly permitted by us, subject to
any condition, as may be prescribed.

to, Ten Thousand Rupees (INR 10,000/-) in a single
tournament, a single Pool Rummy game, a single Deal
Rummy Game, or a single Points Rummy game, as the case
may be. In such cases, you will be required to furnish
your Permanent Account Number (PAN), duly issued to you,
by the Income Tax Authorities. If you do not possess a
PAN, a TDS at the rate of 30%, or such other rate as may
be prescribed by law, from time to time, will
automatically be deducted from such winnings and the
balance amount will be credited to your user gaming
account.
We are legally obligated to provide you only an
appropriate certificate of tax deduction and are not
responsible for providing advise on your individual tax
matters. You will be solely responsible to assess and
report your individual tax to the appropriate tax
authority.
Withdrawal of these winnings will only be permitted upon
your providing your correct PAN details, in accordance
with the withdrawal section hereinbelow.
We would like to inform you that we reserve the right to
verify your PAN from time to time and to cancel any
prize should your PAN be found inconsistent in our
verification process.
R. WITHDRAWALS
Players can withdraw funds only if
they have played Cash Games equivalent to the deposits
they have made on our Platform. We reserve the right to
confiscate the funds if any user is caught depositing
money and placing a withdrawal request without playing
games equivalent to the deposit amount. In any such
case, the user will have to provide their bank statement
clearly showing the deposit made into his/her user
gaming account. Additionally, in all such cases, the
withdrawal amount will only be refunded to the user
gaming account on the Platform and will not be
transferred to the user’s bank account. Any user
identified engaging in such activities more than once
shall have their accounts locked and any available funds
in that account confiscated.
You may request to withdraw your winnings to any Bank
Account, in the Indian jurisdiction, using an electronic
bank-to-bank transfer or NEFT or any such other mode,
and agree that all such withdrawals are subject to the
following conditions:

apply.

made at least one cash deposit on our Platform and
thereafter played the requisite number of cash
games.
c)We shall process a withdrawal request via Electronic
Bank Transfer after the mandatory KYC and withdrawal
verification have been successfully completed. We shall
attempt to process such withdrawal via the mode of
transfer selected by you. However, we reserve the right
to modify the mode of withdrawal at our discretion and
to reverse the amount to the payment/deposit mode used
to add cash to our Platform.
d)All withdrawals on the Platform are currently free of
any charge. However, in the future, if there are any
charges to be levied on withdrawals, we reserve the
right to charge the applicable fee which shall be
notified to you in advance.
We will try to process all such requests within 24 hours
of your making the request, and an additional time will
be taken by the bank to process such a transaction.
There may be a delay in remitting such payment, due to
the time required for verification and completing of the
transaction, which includes National and Bank Holidays
or any other disruption of service. We shall not be held
liable for any such delays.
