TDS (Tax Deducted at Source)
In accordance with the amendment to Section 194B of the Income Tax Act, which was proposed during the Budget Session of 2023, all online gaming intermediaries are required to deduct tax at a rate of 30% on users’ net winnings earned from participating in real-money online games.
These regulations have been in effect starting from the financial year 2023-24.
The tax deduction at source (TDS) will take place at the time of withdrawal of the winnings. It is important to note that the TDS applies only to net winnings and not to the deposits made by users.
Additionally, on March 31 each year, a 30% TDS will be applied to any outstanding net winnings in the user's wallet.
Participation on YesNo Platform
As part of its services, YesNo will provide users with questions related to the probability of a specified future event occurring. This includes data and information gathered from publicly available sources, as well as the ability for users to contribute their own opinions and insights on these events.
Based on various factors such as the likelihood of an event, the timeframe of occurrence, the number of bids placed, and other considerations determined solely by YesNo, users may be permitted to modify their bids and/or place multiple bids on a particular event.
The YesNo platform will make its best efforts to match a user’s bid with a complementary bid from another user. Once a match is made, neither participant will be able to withdraw their bid. The settlement of bids will be determined by the actual occurrence and outcome of the event in question. If no complementary bid is available before the event occurs, the bid amount will be refunded to the user.
YesNo reserves the right to cancel specific questions, adjust deadlines for bidding, or make other modifications in situations beyond its reasonable control. Users will be informed of such changes through notifications via email, SMS, WhatsApp, or other communication channels.
Certain events may have unique bidding rules, which will be communicated to users before they place their bids. These rules will serve as additional terms unless explicitly stated otherwise.
To place a bid, users must pay an amount that reflects the
probability of the event occurring. A bid is considered successful if the predicted parameters of the event are met. Conversely, if the parameters are not met, the bid will be unsuccessful.
Users acknowledge that participation on the YesNo platform and placing bids on future events is based on their independent analysis. While YesNo provides publicly available data on the platform, users are encouraged to conduct their own research and make well-informed decisions before placing a bid.
To participate, users must add funds to their YesNo Account. The platform may impose limits on deposits or account balances at its discretion. Any winnings or losses will be credited or debited accordingly from the user’s YesNo Account.
