India's gaming industry is forecast to nearly triple by 2029, driven by in-app purchases and growth in non-metro areas.

India's gaming sector is projected to grow to $9.2 billion by 2029, up from $3.8 billion now, driven by in-app purchases and a rise in female gamers, who make up 44% of the 591 million gaming population. Non-metro cities are leading this growth, with 66% of gamers from these areas. The sector, accounting for 30% of the $12.5 billion new media market in 2024, has also seen a 41% year-on-year increase in in-app purchases.
