States to decide tax on lottery, not Centre: Supreme Court

The court affirmed that taxation on lotteries falls under state jurisdiction, confirming the Sikkim High Court's decision. Lottery distributors will continue to pay the state-imposed gambling tax. The case originated from a 2013 petition by Future Gaming Solutions Pvt Ltd.
