Will Junglee Rummy Cash Games Make a Comeback?

India’s second-largest real-money Rummy app, Junglee Rummy, has seen cash games, tournaments, and even deposits disappear following India’s new online gaming law passed in 2025.

We will guide you through Junglee Rummy’s future transformations, current withdrawal limits and game mode.

Cash Games Not Coming Back for Now

On August 21, 2025, the Indian Parliament passed the Online Gaming Promotion and Regulation Act 2025, which basically ended all real-money gaming platforms.

Junglee Rummy’s parent company, Flutter Entertainment, must be very upset—they had just spent $200 million in July to fully buy Junglee Games, and Junglee Rummy is one of their brands.

Now Flutter is trying hard to find a way forward, hoping “skill games” can get legal protection again so they can offer a fully legal and regulated product.

In short, real-money games are not coming back soon. Until real-money games return, Junglee Rummy will need to change, or it could shut down without income.

Junglee Rummy Will Surely Change Its Model

Although Junglee Rummy won’t return to cash games for now, it will likely switch to a Microtransaction or In-app Purchase model.

Players can spend real money to buy in-game tokens (for example, 50 INR for 1,000 tokens, 500 INR for 12,000 tokens) and use these tokens to access more features, such as:

• Tournament Entry Fees: Use tokens to join tournaments. Winning can give rewards like more tokens, special items, or even physical prizes like a smartphone.
• Extra Game Content: Tokens can unlock extra games or special modes, giving you experiences that normal players don’t get.
• Subscription Model: The platform could offer a VIP membership (for example, 200 INR per month), giving daily tokens, free tournament access, and even an ad-free experience.

As long as there are no real-money rewards, this model follows India’s current regulations.

Withdraw Junglee Rummy Deposit Balance

Can you still withdraw your balance from Junglee Rummy? Yes, you can—as long as your state allows it!

If your KYC indicates that you reside in a restricted state, such as Andhra Pradesh, Assam, Sikkim, Nagaland, or Telangana, even using a VPN or logging in from a different location will not allow you to withdraw. Your account could also be blocked.

How to withdraw from Junglee Rummy:

1. Download Junglee Rummy app.
2. Log in and open Menu → Withdrawal.
3. Enter the amount you want to withdraw.
4. Choose your withdrawal method: Bank Transfer、UPI、PhonePe.

If you have a balance in a restricted state but haven’t completed KYC, you could consider using a friend or relative’s details from another region and log in with a VPN to request a withdrawal.

However, be aware that this may violate platform rules and carries the risk of your account being blocked or your balance frozen.

Is Junglee Rummy Worth Playing Without Real Money?

Junglee Rummy has been part of many players’ lives for years, so there’s no need to rush and uninstall the app. It will likely change its model in the future, so its evolution is still worth watching.

Originally, Junglee Rummy offered real-money games like:

• Junglee Rummy: Various Rummy variants, from the classic 13-card version to fast-paced games.
• Howzat: A fantasy cricket game for fans.
• Junglee Poker: Texas Hold’em Poker, which was quite popular in India.

Now, only the free Rummy mode remains. While it doesn’t give the thrill of winning real money, it’s still useful for practicing your skills.

Can You Still Play Real-Money Rummy in India?

The 2025 law does not punish players for joining real-money games. Its main goal is to control all real-money gaming platforms accessible in India, including both domestic and overseas Rummy sites.

Although the government tries to block overseas real-money Rummy games through internet restrictions and financial limits, enforcement is difficult. So, playing on a licensed overseas platform can still be safe.

A few points to keep in mind:

• Legal License: Make sure the platform has a valid license from a well-known gaming authority, like Malta, Curacao, or Gibraltar.
• Withdrawal Details: Check with customer support about withdrawal steps, fees, and processing time before joining.
• Payment Options: Since Indian banks may have restrictions, choose platforms with multiple payment channels, like crypto or e-wallets.
• Legal Risks: Some states have strict gambling rules. Know your state’s laws and avoid discussing these activities publicly or on social media.
• VPN Use: If you are using a VPN, please select a reliable service and avoid free or insecure options.
