Using our seamless software and IT services, you can play online rummy, a game of skill, with other online rummy players on Zuplay Rummy. Our Services are only intended to allow you to play rummy for the sole purpose of entertainment. Zuplay Rummy will in no way be responsible or liable for any acts of betting or gambling that may take place outside our Website/Mobile App. Moreover, the state laws of Andhra Pradesh, Assam, Sikkim, Nagaland, and Telangana (hereinafter referred to as “Restricted States” or “Restricted Territories”) do not permit playing cash rummy games in their respective territories.
Therefore, in the aforementioned Restricted States, Zuplay Rummy does not offer any games or tournaments that are organized for winnings or prizes in money or in kind. People living in or logged in from the Restricted States are strictly prohibited from playing cash games or tournaments on Zuplay Rummy. If you live in or access the Zuplay Rummy Website/Mobile App from any of the Restricted States, please refrain from participating in any game or tournament on Zuplay Rummy that involves real money. We are legally obliged to deduct tax at source (TDS) from Net Winnings (Net Winnings = Withdrawals − Deposits − FY Opening Balance).
As per the new tax rules issued by the Government of India, 30% TDS will be deducted from the Net Winnings included in the withdrawal amount at the time of withdrawal or at the end of the financial year. PAN (permanent account number) verification is mandatory for withdrawals. Moreover, KYC verification is mandatory for a cumulative deposit of ?50,000 or more or the first withdrawal, whichever happens first. KYC verification includes the verification of your ID, address, and mobile number.

GST Compliance and Deductions
In compliance with the amendments made in the Central Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017, Integrated Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017, the State Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017 and Rules made under the said Acts including Notifications issued under the said Acts (hereinafter collectively referred to as “GST Laws”) related to taxability of online gaming, Zuplay Rummy is obligated to collect GST at the rate of 28% (28% of deposit amount) from the amount deposited by players/users for playing on Zuplay Rummy.
Zuplay Rummy and the player/user agree that the amount deposited by the player/user in his/her Zuplay Rummy account will be deemed to be inclusive of GST. Accordingly, the GST portion of the amount deposited by the player/user will be deducted by Zuplay Rummy from the player’s/user’s user account to be paid to the Government. In the event that Zuplay Rummy decides, at its own and absolute discretion, to refund an amount deposited accidentally by a player/user, the amount will be refunded only after deducting GST payable on such amount, in accordance with the GST Laws. No amount will be refunded in full and any refund is subject to Zuplay Rummy’s absolute discretion.
Place of Supply
For the purposes of invoicing and taxation, the place of supply in the invoice will be considered to be the state declared by the User at the time of registration. It is the responsibility of Users to ensure that the state declared during registration is accurate and represents their true location. Until KYC (know your customer) details are provided by the User, the declared state will be considered the address on record for all transactions. Once KYC details are furnished by the User, the place of supply in the invoice will be updated to reflect the state as per the KYC documents provided.
This update will apply prospectively from the date the KYC details are submitted and verified. If the User logs out from the Zuplay Rummy without completing the KYC process and logs in again, the User must manually provide the state location from which the User is logging in. We will not update this automatically. The place of supply can only be updated at the time of KYC completion. Users shall ensure that the KYC details provided by them are accurate, complete, and up-to-date.
