Question 1

How many sports does Parimatch cover for Indian bettors?

Accepted Answer

The platform covers over 30 sports disciplines for Indian users, with cricket, football, tennis, kabaddi, basketball, volleyball, hockey, badminton, and esports all receiving meaningful market depth. Cricket — particularly IPL, Test matches, and ICC tournaments — receives the deepest coverage, with over 50 distinct market types available per match during peak events. The total number of live events running simultaneously typically reaches 200–350 during peak evening hours in IST. Indian players who have tried multiple betting sites consistently rate the cricket section as one of the most comprehensively built available through any internationally licensed bookmaker.

Question 2

Is kabaddi betting available, and how good is the market depth for Pro Kabaddi League?

Accepted Answer

Yes, kabaddi betting is available with specific coverage of the Pro Kabaddi League — a level of dedication that is unusual among international bookmakers serving the Indian market. Available market types include match winner, total raid points (over/under), handicap margins, half-time leader, tournament winner outright bets, and player performance specials including top raider and top defender markets. Among betting sites that cover kabaddi at all, this depth of market availability puts the platform comfortably at the better end of the spectrum for Indian players who follow the sport seriously.

Question 3

What payment methods work best for Indian users depositing in INR?

Accepted Answer

UPI is the recommended deposit method for Indian users due to its instant processing, zero additional fees, and universal availability across Indian smartphones. Net banking (supporting SBI, HDFC, ICICI, Axis, and Kotak Mahindra among others), Paytm, and PhonePe are also well-supported. For withdrawals, UPI typically processes within one to three hours for fully verified accounts, making it the fastest withdrawal option available. Minimum deposit via UPI is generally around ₹300, which is accessible to both casual and serious bettors. Cryptocurrency options including Bitcoin, Ethereum, and USDT are also available for users who prefer that route.

Question 4

How do I download the app and complete the login process on Android?

Accepted Answer

To get started on Android, visit the official website and tap the app download banner on the homepage. The APK file will begin downloading automatically. Before installing, go to your Android Security settings and enable installations from unknown sources — this step is required only once. Once installed, open the app and you will be taken directly to the login screen. New users can register from the same screen in under five minutes. Existing account holders simply enter their registered credentials to log in and access all sports markets, casino games, and account features immediately. The app is under 50MB and works on Android 5.0 and above, covering nearly all smartphones currently in use across India.

Question 5

How does the cricket odds quality compare to competitors?

Accepted Answer

For IPL matches, the average bookmaker margin runs at approximately 4.5%, which is competitive in the Indian market context. Test cricket and ICC event margins are similar, typically sitting between 4.5% and 5.5%. While 1xBet sometimes offers slightly tighter margins on cricket (around 4.2%), the difference is marginal for most bet sizes. What helps offset any margin gap is the availability of enhanced odds promotions during IPL season and major cricket tournaments, which can make individual bets more valuable than the base margin suggests. Comparing odds across betting sites before placing larger stakes is always a worthwhile habit for experienced Indian bettors.

Question 6

What is the cash-out feature and is it available on cricket bets?

Accepted Answer

The cash-out feature allows bettors to settle a bet before the event it covers has concluded. If a bet is running ahead of expectations, you can lock in a profit below the maximum potential payout. If a bet is going wrong, you can cut losses by accepting a partial return. Cash-out is available on both pre-match and live bets, including cricket matches — making it particularly useful during IPL games where the match situation can shift dramatically between overs. Partial cash-out, where only a portion of the bet is settled while the remainder stays active, is also supported. Among the top betting sites available to Indian players, this combination of full and partial cash-out across live and pre-match markets is not universally offered.
