Within the Indian context, the Information Technology Act, 2000, along with allied cyber regulatory frameworks, provides an important legal basis for examining digital platform activities and cyber-enabled transactions. However, the application of these frameworks to cross-border online gambling platforms continues to involve evolving jurisdictional and enforcement-related considerations (CKS, 2024). This paper adopts a doctrinal research methodology to examine the jurisdictional and regulatory challenges associated with illegal online gambling platforms operating across borders. The study analyses the interaction between cyber law, intermediary platforms, and cross-border jurisdictional principles while maintaining a neutral and analytical legal perspective.
