GST & Tax on Winnings Disclosure

Last updated 06 Jul 2026

Current Position

TapRoyal does not currently deduct tax at source (TDS) from withdrawals or winnings. The full amount you win, less TapRoyal's platform commission already reflected in the prize pool, is credited to your wallet and is available for withdrawal subject to the limits in our Refund & Cancellation Policy.

Your Tax Obligations

Under Indian income tax law, net winnings from online games are taxable income. It is your responsibility to declare your winnings and pay any tax due, including advance tax where applicable, when filing your income tax return. TapRoyal does not provide tax advice — please consult a qualified chartered accountant for guidance specific to your situation.

Platform Commission

TapRoyal retains a commission from the total entry fees collected in each tournament (currently between 5% and 30%, set per tournament) before the remaining amount is distributed as prize money. This is TapRoyal's revenue, and is separate from any tax obligation you may have on your own winnings.

This May Change

TapRoyal reserves the right to introduce TDS deduction at source in the future, in line with applicable law, without prior notice, if required to remain compliant as the platform grows.
