Have you ever heard of Kalyan charts? They’re a game where people bet on numbers, like a lottery. But to run this game, the people in charge (we call them operators) need special Permission. Let’s learn about what they need to do to get this Permission.
What’s a Kalyan Chart?
Before we talk about permissions, let’s understand what a Kalyan chart is:
- It’s a betting game that started in Mumbai, India
- People guess numbers and win money if they’re right
- The chart operator is the person who runs the game
Is Gambling Allowed in India?
In India, the rules about gambling are a bit tricky:
- The government made a law in 1867 that says gambling houses are not allowed
- But each state in India can make its own rules about gambling
- Some states say no to all gambling
- Other states allow some types of gambling if you follow strict rules
- A few states are more relaxed about it
What Kalyan Chart Operators Need to Do
Because each state has different rules, what operators need to do can be different depending on where they are. But here are some general things they might need:
- Get Permission from the State If a state allows Kalyan Matka (that’s another name for Kalyan charts):

- They’ll probably have to show they haven’t done anything wrong in the past
- They’ll need to share information about their money
- They might need to renew their license every so often
- Get Permission from the Local Area Even if the state says it’s okay, the local area might have more rules:
- Operators might need a business license from the city or town
- They might need to check if it’s okay to run their business in that specific place
- Online Game Rules If operators want to run the game on the internet:
- They might need a special license for Internet cafes
- They need to follow rules about how to use the internet safely
