The official, however, said that there is no data yet of foreign gaming companies registering in India since October 1.
The government has amended the GST law, making it mandatory for overseas online gaming companies to register in India from October 1.

&ldquo;Online gaming companies served notices worth about R1 lakh crore by GST authorities so far,&rdquo; the official said.
A host of online gaming, like Dream11, and casino operator, like Delta Corp, have received GST show cause notices last month for alleged short payment of taxes. Separately, a show cause notice was sent to GamesKraft in September last year for alleged GST evasion of R21,000 crore.&nbsp;
