Due to the heavy 40% GST on real-money gaming, ongoing discuss | Ram Choudhary

Due to the heavy 40% GST on real-money gaming, ongoing discussions around a possible gaming ban, and the lack of final clarity on future regulations, the current gaming model has become uncertain and challenging for the entire industry.
Considering these legal and regulatory factors, Dream11 is shifting from a pure gaming platform to a broader entertainment ecosystem to create a more stable and sustainable experience for users.

Dream11 will introduce a Subscription Model and DreamBucs, through which users will get access to multiple features like shopping benefits, exclusive rewards, live streaming, super-chats, and several upcoming services.
Fantasy sports will remain free to play, and users will continue to win big rewards without making direct gaming deposits.

Based on your subscription plan and the amount of DreamBucs you use, your reward leagues, features and benefits will be unlocked.
This system allows you to enjoy rewards and gameplay similar to before, but through a new, flexible model where the value spent can be used across entertainment, shopping and services, instead of being limited to gaming.

All new features and updates will roll out gradually, with proper testing, to ensure a smooth transition for every user.
