Below are the main highlights from the judgment of the Indian High Court specifically regarding Prime Captain game. A challenge to this judgment was also dismissed by the Supreme Court of India:

• The Court indicated in its decision that the playing the Prime Captain game includes significant ability, judgment and choice, and that Prime Captain's achievement comes from the practice, expertise, and awareness of users.
• In addition, the Court ruled that "the skill element" predominantly influences the outcome of the Prime Captain game in the format that follows:
  1. Participants have to select a team that contains the same number of players as a real team.(e.g. 11 in cricket/football , 7 in kabaddi and 5 in basketball)
  2. All contests run for at least one full sport match.
  3. Participants are not allowed to change teams after the start of the sport match.

  On this basis, the Court ruled that playing on Prime Captain is a ' skill game ' which leaves the Prime Captain game immune from the Public Gambling Act, 1867 (PGA) regulations.

• The Court concluded, finally, that the Prime Captain is a lawful company under Article 19(1)(g) of theIndian Constitution.
