"Sometimes, the commercials had superstars acting while the disclaimer was being spoken, diverting customers from significant data about chances. A few ads had disclaimers that were more modest than what has been endorsed," added the commercial guard dog.


ASCI has encouraged gaming industry bodies to take this issue up with its individuals.

These incorporate 63 promotions by Twelfth Man, 60 advertisements by Khelo Fantasy and 35 promotions by Namma11 among others, said ASCI.
