India's Unicorn Count Reaches 73 Amidst Gaming Industry Changes

India's tech scene is changing.

The country now has 73 'unicorns,' which are startups worth over $1 billion.

A new law has hurt real money gaming (RMG) companies, like Dream11, causing them to lose their unicorn status.

However, 11 new unicorns emerged, mainly in the fintech sector.

Fintech companies, which deal with money and financial technology, are thriving.

Experts say that stable regulations are crucial for startups.

Key investment themes include defense, climate, and deep tech.
