Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Entertainment, Not Income
At times2.in, we believe that online gaming should be enjoyed as entertainment only. Gambling is never a reliable way to earn money or solve financial problems. Always play within your means and remember that the house always has an edge. If you find yourself viewing gaming as a source of income, please seek help immediately.
Age Verification & Legal Requirements
You must be 18 years of age or older (or the legal gambling age in your jurisdiction) to participate in any gaming activities on times2.in. We are committed to preventing underage gambling and comply with all applicable Indian gaming regulations. By accessing our platform, you confirm that you meet these age requirements.
