In India, Delta Corporation has opened its Deltin Resort in Daman on the Arabian Sea coast, where the country’s largest casino is awaiting licensing.

“I am confident that it will reshape the face of the industry in India,” Delta chairman Jaydev Mody said. He called the opening a “milestone,” saying it “underlines our efforts to provide luxurious yet accessible gaming and hospitality destinations in the country.”

The 60,000sq.ft casino attached to the resort will open “very shortly,” said a Delta spokesman. It will be India's largest casino and the first in the country to operate outside of Goa. Daman and its neighbouring district of Diu are known as union territories and administered directly by the federal government.
