Some examples are as under :-

Platform Fee Examples

Tournaments

For each user who joins a cash tournament, MPL Platform Fee is calculated as (1- Total Cash prize offered/(open slots x Designated Amount)) * Designated Amount

For example, in a 5 player tournament with Designated Amount of रु100, and the total cash prizes on offer is रु450.

The MPL Platform Fee collected out of each user who is registering with रु 100 will be equal to (1 – रु450/(रु100 x 5)) * रु100 = रु10

The same calculation applies to tournaments hosted by Users, Pooled tournaments or Non-Guaranteed tournaments.

Pooled Tournaments = Tournaments where the Total winnings on offer increases with the number of slots filled in the tournament. However, the Platform Fee on each registration remains constant for any number of slots filled.

Non-Guaranteed Tournaments = Tournaments which get cancelled and all Designated Amount paid shall be refunded if the minimum number of users required did not join the tournament

Battles

For each successfully completed 2 player cash battle, MPL Platform Fee is calculated as (1- Total Cash prize offered/(2 x Designated Amount)) * Designated Amount

For example, in a 2 player battle with Designated Amount of रु 100, where the winner(s) gets रु 180.

The MPL Platform Fee collected out of each user who is registering with रु 100 will be equal to (1 – रु180/(रु100 x 2)) * रु100 = रु10

In the case of multiplayer battles where multiple players could win cash prizes, Total cash prize offered varies with the number of players participated in the battle

MPL Platform Fee is calculated as (1- Total Cash prize offered per the number of players who participated/(number of players who participated x Designated Amount)) * Designated Amount

For example, let’s take the case of a 5 player battle with रु 100 Designated Amount. When 3 players participate, if the total prize offered to all the winners in the battle is रु 270.

Then MPL Platform Fee collected out of each who is participating with रु 100 will be equal to (1 – रु270/(रु100 x 3)) * रु100 = रु10

Battle Arenas

Battle Arenas are a kind of battles where users pay a single Designated Amount to register. Players then compete with each other in a battle format.

By the end of the duration of the Battle Arena, players are ranked on a leaderboard based on the number of wins he/she had out of all the battles he/she played.

Cash Prizes are distributed to the winners based on their rank.

MPL Platform Fee for such registrations is a preset percentage of the Designated Amount.

MPL Platform Fee is subject to change as per MPL policy without prior notice.

Fantasy Contests

For each user who joins a cash contest, MPL Platform Fee is calculated as (1- Total Cash prize offered/(open slots x Designated Amount)) * Designated Amount

If a contest allows a user to register multiple teams, then each team registered by the user is counted as a slot filled in the contest.

For example, in a 5 player contest with Designated Amount of रु100, and the total cash prizes on offer is रु450.

The MPL Platform Fee collected out of each user for each team he/she is registering with रु 100 will be equal to (1 – रु450/(रु100 x 5)) * रु100 = रु10

The same calculation applies to contests hosted by Users, Pooled contests or Non-Guaranteed contests.

Pooled contests = contests where the Total winnings on offer increases with the number of slots filled in the tournament. However, the Platform Fee on each team registration remains constant for any number of slots filled.

Non-Guaranteed contests = contests which get cancelled and all Designated Amounts paid shall be refunded if the minimum number of users required did not join the tournament

Audio Shows

All cash paid to other MPL players for hosting or co-hosting Audio Shows are subject to a MPL Platform Fee of 12% of the Cash paid.

For example if an MPL players tips a host or a co-host of an audio show for रु 50. Then MPL Platform Fee described as Audio Transfer Charges of रु6 is deducted from the Host/Co-Hos

Points rummy

MPL Platform Fee for each table is equal to sum of Rake % * Points Given * point value of the table by each of the players barring the winner.

Rake % varies across points rummy tables. It can be found when tapped on the info button at the top right of each table.

For example, in a 0.1 point value lobby with a rake % of 12%, in a round if 5 players were playing and one player won. Say each of the 4 players who lost gave 25 points each.

Then the total Platform Fee = 12% * 25*4 * 0.1 = RS.1.2

Pool Rummy

For example, in a pool rummy game of RS. 100 entry and 5 people have played it. Let’s say the Rake % for this table is 12%. Then in the current example, MPL Platform Fee will be calculated as 12%* 100*5 = Rs.60

The Rake % varies from table to table and from time to time. You can check the value by taking on the info icon at the top right of each table.

3.16. Processing Fee

a) MPL charges a ‘Processing Fee’ from the User(s) for facilitating withdrawal of Winnings through various modes including but not limited to Bank Account and UPI.

2.8 . MPL shall ensure that all Contests offered to the Users participating in MPL Super Team are competitive and incorporate principles of fair-play. MPL is committed to ensuring the utmost levels of fairness and competitiveness in its MPL SuperTeam/MPL Fantasy.

  Rules for Fantasy Pro under MPL SuperTeam / MPL Fantasy
3.1. Each User has the opportunity to get additional rewards over and above the Winnings in a particular Contest on the Platform (“Additional Winnings”) while participating in MPL Fantasy, by allowing players to create strong teams in a Contest and share them with other players participating in the same Contest. MPL Fantasy Pro, one of the integral parts of the MPL Fantasy ecosystem, is aimed at making the game more competitive by increasing opportunities for players to exercise their strategic prowess.

3.2. ‘Fantasy Pro’ on MPL allows each User participating in a Contest to play with a Fantasy Team created by another player based on their knowledge and skill in MPL Fantasy (‘Additional Winnings’)’. This is as illustrated below:
Registration: Player A and Player B register for an India versus New Zealand match (‘Contest’) by paying the MPL Platform fee. After successful registration, Player A creates their Fantasy Team to participate in the Contest;
‘Buy’*: In order to gain additional winnings, Player A (‘Proposer’*) decides to provide his/her Fantasy Team (‘TradedTeam / Trade’*) to be shared with any other participant in the Contest on receipt of some minimum Additional Winnings.
‘Bid’*: Players registered in the Contest who strategize to participate in the Contest with Player A’s team (as Player A frequently features in leaderboards) offer Additional Winnings for Player A’s team. The highest Additional Winnings is offered by Player B, who is declared the new winner of Player A’s team. A Contender can edit or remove their offer of Additional Winnings prior to its acceptance by the Proposer. Player B’s prize offering becomes invalid when Player C offers to Player A a higher Additional Winnings amount than Player B.
‘Sell’*: Player B (‘Contender’*) successfully copies Player A’s team after completing the payment of the offered Additional Winnings, after which the Traded Team is re-registered to Player B’s account.
Participation in the Contest: Player B can participate in the Contest with the team copied from Player A. Player A on being declared winner of the Additional Winnings, will exit the Contest with such Additional Winnings only.

* the terms are used for marketing purposes and to aid ease of understanding for the players. For legal purposes, Fantasy ProT does not result in transfer of digital assets or any monetary transaction between the players. Fantasy Pro is an additional in-game feature to enhance the competitive environment and allow players to demonstrate their strategic prowess.

3.3. Sharing window: Players can Propose or Copy Traded Team(s) only between the start and conclusion of the Contest. Sharing will be closed when the Contest moves to the ‘Results’ tab.

3.4. Platform Fee: For each Fantasy Pro transaction, MPL will charge a Platform Fee against the service provided by MPL of removing the Traded Team from the Proposer’s account post verification of relevant details, and re-registering it in the Contender’s account.

3.5. Where a Contest allows a player to register with multiple teams, a player can Propose each of the registered teams created by them. For example, if a Contest allows each player to register with upto 3 teams, Player A can create and propose each of the 3 teams by inviting Additional Winning offers.

3.6. Any tax/levies/duty etc. as applicable on material prizes including Additional Winnings, shall be paid by the Proposer of the TradedTeam. Based on TDS (tax deducted at source) Rules for any sort of game winning in India, 31.2% TDS should be deducted on any Additional Winning above Rs.10,000/- for a single Traded Team.

Union Territory of Chandigarh and of the Bombay High Court in Gurdeep Singh Sachar v. Union of India and Others, games such as MPL SuperTeam/MPL Fantasy are games of ‘mere skill’ as the result is not dependent on winning or losing of any particular team in the real world, but depends on the performance of each player selected by a user which involves considerable skill, judgement and discretion and further, the success therein depended on one’s superior knowledge of the relevant sport, prudent judgment and attention.

4.3 .By virtue of its classification as a game of skill, fantasy sports do not violate the Public Gambling Act, 1867, and is excluded from the ambit of certain Indian gambling legislations.

MPL Rummy offered on the Platform is a ‘game of skill’. According to a 1967 Supreme Court judgment in State of Andhra Pradesh v. K. Satyanarayana, In the game of Rummy is a game of mere skill and playing Rummy does not amount to gambling.

Over the past few decades, various High Courts have quoted the apex court’s decision and stated that law enforcement authorities cannot interfere with the game of Rummy played with stakes. In 1996, a three-judge bench of the Supreme Court affirmed its 1967 judgment and ruled that games involving substantial and preponderant degree of skill fall within the definition of ‘games of mere skill’.

By virtue of its classification as a game of skill, the game of Rummy does not violate the Public Gambling Act, 1867, and is excluded from the ambit of most state gaming legislations.
