đź“ť Indian Gaming Market Projected to Reach $9.2 Billion

India's gaming market is projected to grow to $9.2 billion by 2029, with shifts in player demographics, revenue streams, and market dynamics shaping the future of gaming in the country.
What’s Going On Here?
A new report by Lumikai and Google shows that India’s gaming market is on track to reach $3.8 billion by 2024 and $9.2 billion by 2029, growing at a 20% compound annual growth rate (CAGR). While Real-Money Gaming (RMG) remains significant at 63% of the market, it’s expected to grow more slowly (8% CAGR) compared to the rapid expansion of other gaming segments. In-game purchases (IAP), advertising, and a rising number of paying users are fueling overall growth, as more Indians—particularly from outside metro areas—take up gaming on affordable smartphones and data plans.
What Does This Mean?
The Indian gaming landscape is evolving beyond its traditional focus on RMG. Mid-core and casual titles are rapidly gaining traction, as seen by the 53% year-over-year increase in IAP revenue for games like Battlegrounds Mobile India and Garena Free Fire Max. Younger, tech-savvy gamers, alongside increasingly robust digital payment methods (e.g., UPI, digital wallets), are driving new forms of monetization, including ad-based models and in-game transactions. This opens the door for web3 gaming innovations, which align well with digital payment trends, tokenized economies, and play-to-earn possibilities.
Why Should I Care?
For Investors and Developers: India is emerging as a global gaming hotspot, with a large, mobile-first user base willing to pay for premium experiences. Understanding the market’s shift from RMG to more diverse offerings can guide investment and development strategies.
For Gamers: The surge in in-game purchases and upcoming web3 gaming initiatives means more variety in how players can enjoy games and earn rewards.
For the Broader Industry: The country’s emphasis on affordable smartphones and digital payments showcases scalable models for other emerging markets, potentially shaping the next wave of global gaming growth.
