Esports organisations may set a monthly player compensation above of Rs 2.5 lakh.
Esports organisations : Prominent esports organisations, including Global Esports, GodLike Esports, Enigma Gaming, S8UL, and Revenant Esports, are proposing to restrict player compensation at Rs 2.5 lakh per month, citing the detrimental effects of player poaching on team performance in contests. Owners of up to fifteen esports organisations acknowledged last month at a meeting how many of them are losing money because they are paying top players big wages in an effort to get them in.
The proprietors of esports organisations met and talked about how the industry’s exorbitantly expensive player pay are hurting their ability to stay in business, according to a story published in the Economic Times. An owner, who wishes to remain anonymous, said that the firm is suffering significant losses as a result of players being poached and paid large payments. Every organisation must pay a lot of money for the provision of gaming equipment, a boot camp in Mumbai, training, team strategy development, branding management, travel expenses, and attention to players’ physical and mental health. According to him, monthly expenses can go up to Rs. 20 lakhs.

Organisations make money through two primary methods, in addition to paying for expenses: prize money from competitions and brand sponsorships. However, athletes contend that pay limitations are unfairly imposed. One well-known esports player said that team management take advantage of their rising star power to give larger salary packages. Salary limitations would feel like a constraint on their worth, even if they performed exceptionally well in competitions.

Famous video games like Pokemon Unite, Valorant, Counter-Strike, Battlegrounds Mobile India (BGMI), Dota, and Counter-Strike have attracted a lot of gamers in India; millions of people play them or watch them with great interest as players vie for championships. These tournaments, which were first aired live online on websites like YouTube, Loco, and Rooter, have developed into massive offline local area network (LAN) events that take place in stadiums and have a familiar feel to them. This trend is particularly well-established in the West. Market estimates place the total prize money given in 2023—across both online and offline competitions—close to Rs. 30-35 crore, making it the highest prize money payout for online gaming in India’s history.
