Constitutional and Tax aspects of Gameskraft Judgement by Sr Adv Arvind Datar #lawyer #law

Constitutional and tax aspects of Gameskraft Judgement by Sr. Adv. Arvind Datar! The twin judgements—State of Tamil Nadu v Junglee Games India Pvt. Ltd. (2026) (“Junglee”) and Directorate General of GST Intelligence v Gameskraft Technologies Pvt. Ltd (2026) (“Gameskraft”)—have reconfigured the legal understanding of online gaming laws in India. Junglee Games, delivered by Justices J. B. Pardiwala and R. Mahadevan, is a ruling on the competence of state legislatures to ban real-money gaming, including games of skill under Entry 34 of the State List. Gameskraft, delivered the next day by Justice Mahadevan, is a fiscal ruling validating the 28% GST levy on all online gaming transactions as actionable claims arising from betting and gambling. In this article, we examine the two holdings from the standpoint of the long-running debate on games of skill versus chance. This will also be relevant considering the pending constitutional challenge to the Union’s Promotion and Regulation of Online Gaming Act, 2025 (PROGA), which came into force on 1 October 2025. #Taxxsutra #gameskraft #gaming #tax Ask#court #supremecourtjudges #taxlaw #supremecourtofindia #nani #palkhivala #courtproceedings #courtroomdrama #indianjudiciary #collegiumsystem #supremecourt #attorney #barister #Laws in india, #argument #laentrevistaconraulvalladares #lawyer #lawyerlife #law #lawenforcement #nani #palkhiwala #court #law #supremecourt #advocate #collegiumsystem #courtlive #courtproceedings #lawyer #tax #taxation #taxationinindia #constitution #constitutionofindia #advocatesupremecourt #supremecourt #supremecourtofindia #supreme #lawofattraction #SupremeCourt#Mussorrie #advocate #lawyer #legal #livehighcourt #indianlaw #law #live #court #argument #criminaljustice #guiltyminds #learnadvocacy #courtlive #justicelive #lawmotivation #beajudge #ias #judge #law #legal #patnahighcourt #justiceashutoshkumar #judiciary #motivation #learnlaw #IAS #supremecourtofindia #IPS #2022 #Patnahighcourtstream #orissahighcourt #SupremeCourt #Orissahighcourt#GujaratHighCourt #Law #Chakra#JusticeAshutoshkumar #ashutoshkumar #patnahighcourt #law #mussuorie #advocate #lawyer #legal #livehighcourt #indianlaw #law #live #court #argument #criminaljustice #guiltyminds #learnadvocacy #courtlive #justicelive #lawmotivation #beajudge #ias #judge #law #legal #patnahighcourt #justiceashutoshkumar #judiciary #motivation #learnlaw #mussoorie #supremecourtofindia #ips #2022 #mussoorie #carryminati #flyingbeast #biharnews #aibe2022 #allindiabarexamination #patnahighcourtstream #ashutoshkumar #mussoorie
