Disclosed funding amounts in this India gaming set cluster heavily below the top end, with Fanclash’s $40M Series B on 2022-06-17 dwarfing the next-largest disclosed rounds ($65M by WinZO on 2021-07-02 and $150M by Mobile Premier League on 2021-09-15 are even higher, while many other disclosed entries sit at $5M or less, e.g., Funstop Games’ $5M on 2024-11-12 and Oneiric Gaming’s $100K on 2021-12-03). The disclosed “floor” is Oneiric Gaming at $100K (2021-12-03), whereas the set’s disclosed top is Mobile Premier League at $150M (2021-09-15).
The 27 rows span 2020-04-01 (My Game Mate, amount $200K) through 2026-06-01 (Eternoplay Studios, undisclosed). Stage and disclosure are mixed: “undisclosed” appears on 6 entries (including Eternoplay Studios 2026-06-01; Xigma Games 2024-11-15; Hitwicket 2024-04-02; AltWorld 2023-03-01; SportVot 2022-07-27; esportsXO 2023-12-05), and “Series Unknown” appears on 4 entries (Xigma Games 2024-11-15; Gameeon 2024-09-12; esportsXO is undisclosed but classified as Seed, while XYXX Apparels is Series C; AltWorld is Pre-Seed; plus Gameeon and Xigma Games are two). Cities also concentrate around Bangalore (multiple entries from Bengaluru, Karnataka across Seed through Series A, including Rooter 2022-01-12 $25M and WinZO 2021-07-02 $65M), while Mumbai, Delhi/Gurgaon, and Hyderabad appear repeatedly but with fewer disclosed “large-ticket” rounds.

Frequently asked
What are the largest and smallest disclosed rounds in this India gaming list, and how sharply do they separate from the rest?
Mobile Premier League’s $150M Series E on 2021-09-15 is the largest disclosed amount in the rows shown, while Oneiric Gaming’s $100K Angel round on 2021-12-03 is the smallest disclosed amount. Between them, the disclosed values include high outliers like WinZO’s $65M on 2021-07-02 and many smaller rounds (e.g., Funstop Games $5M on 2024-11-12; Gameeon $1M on 2024-09-12).
Are there any time clusters among the most recent funding entries in this page’s 27-row window?
Yes: several rounds land in the late-2024 cluster, including Funstop Games (Series A) on 2024-11-12 ($5M) and Xigma Games (Series Unknown) on 2024-11-15 (undisclosed), plus Gameeon on 2024-09-12 ($1M) and PadelPark on 2024-08-23 (undisclosed). Another visible cluster is mid-2023 to early-2023 around Seed/Pre-Seed (e.g., Game Theory and HighXP on 2023-10-16 and 2023-06-13, both $2M).
Do disclosure types dominate, and do they affect how to interpret “largest round” comparisons?
Undisclosed amounts appear on 6 of the 27 rows (including Eternoplay Studios 2026-06-01 and Xigma Games 2024-11-15), and multiple entries are tagged “Series Unknown” (e.g., Xigma Games 2024-11-15 and Gameeon 2024-09-12). Because the largest-round comparison relies only on disclosed amounts, the standout $150M (Mobile Premier League) and $65M (WinZO) are among the disclosed subset, not the undisclosed or “Series Unknown” rows.
Which geographies show repeated presence, and where do the biggest disclosed rounds come from?
Bengaluru appears repeatedly across years and stages (e.g., Rooter on 2022-01-12 at $25M; WinZO on 2021-07-02 at $65M; Studio Sirah on 2023-01-25 at $3M). The largest disclosed round, Mobile Premier League, is also Bengaluru-based (2021-09-15, $150M), while other high disclosed rounds are split across Mumbai (XYXX Apparels $13M on 2023-05-15; Tamasha $3M on 2021-10-20).
Which stage names recur, and are there notable outliers at the stage level?
Across the rows shown, Seed and early-stage labels (Seed/Pre-Seed/Angel) appear frequently (e.g., Sahaj Gaming Pre-Seed 2024-01-18 at $350K; Oneiric Gaming Angel 2021-12-03 at $100K; Studio Sirah Seed 2023-01-25 at $3M). Large disclosed outliers cluster at later stages where amounts are disclosed, such as Fanclash Series B at $40M (2022-06-17) and Mobile Premier League Series E at $150M (2021-09-15).
How wide is the date range for rounds shown, and what are the endpoints?
The rounds shown span from 2020-04-01 (My Game Mate, amount $200K) through 2026-06-01 (Eternoplay Studios, undisclosed). The most recent dated entry is Eternoplay Studios Private Limited on 2026-06-01, while the oldest dated entry is My Game Mate on 2020-04-01.
