Super4 launches Super4 2.0 app for fans and enthusiasts
Mumbai: Super4, ‘India ka Apna Gaming App’ is one of the most innovative cricket fantasy apps in India. The fast-growing gaming platform has announced the launch of their Super4 2.0 version ahead of the exciting 16 edition of the IPL 2023 season. The upgraded version brings in exciting new features for cricket enthusiasts and gaming users in India. The app has become the ultimate destination for fantasy cricket players, providing them with an opportunity to win handsome rewards while enjoying their favorite game.
With Super4’s latest scoreboard feature, players can now estimate the score for every over in the first innings and create their scoreboard. The closer the scoreboard to the actual score, the more points the player earns, and the higher the chances of winning. Additionally, players can make multiple scoreboards for each match, increasing their chances of winning even more.
Super4 has also introduced the concept of super coins, which users can earn by performing certain activities like depositing money, playing contests on the app, etc. They can redeem these coins to real money and use as an unutilized amount to participate in more matches on the app. The app also provides an option to switch teams, allowing users to replace their previously joined team with a new team in just one click before the match begins.
Super4 rewards its users for referring their friends on the platform with a referral bonus. It will be provided to both the users whose referral code is used and who uses that referral code (only after successfully playing any paid contest on Super4 by the user who uses the refer code). The user whose refer code is used gets 1000 bonus, while the user who uses the referral code gets 500 bonus.
In addition to these exciting features, Super4 is also offering free contests during the IPL season from 1 to 7 April, allowing players to join for free and win cash rewards. Also, players who achieve 1 lakh super coin in 45 days (1 April to 15 May) will get free IPL tickets of the matches of semi-final or eliminator.
Super4’s instant withdrawal feature allows players to withdraw their winnings into their bank account in just one click, making the process quick and hassle-free.
“We’re thrilled to introduce these innovative features to our users,” said Super4 founder Rohit Bansal. “Our mission has always been to provide the best possible experience to our users, and we believe that these new features will take the app to the next level. We hope that our users will enjoy playing on Super4 and winning big.”

MTG gaming chief Benninghoff joins NODWIN board as esports firm primes for IPO
The Gurugram-based esports firm is pursuing a public listing, has returned to profitability and is growing revenues by 42 per cent
GURUGRAM: NODWIN Gaming is moving fast. The Gurugram-based gaming and esports company has launched a pre-IPO fundraising round, appointed UBS as lead adviser for both the round and a subsequent public listing, and landed a heavyweight board director, all in one go.
The new board member is Arnd Benninghoff, executive vice president of gaming at Stockholm-listed Modern Times Group (MTG), who has overseen the group’s strategic investments and portfolio growth since 2014. He is no stranger to building things: Benninghoff has founded and built fifteen companies, served as chief digital officer at ProSiebenSat.1 Media AG, managing director of SevenVentures, and chief executive of Holtzbrinck eLAB. He began his career as a journalist at Deutsche Presse Agentur and various TV networks, holds a Diplom-Kaufmann in business and administration from the University of Münster, and previously sat on the board of Edgeware AB.
The numbers back the ambition
NODWIN is not pitching a story without substance. The company has returned to EBITDA profitability and posted a 42 per cent year-on-year revenue surge, reaching $58.5m in the first nine months of FY2026. The pre-IPO round will combine a primary issuance to fund global expansion through organic growth and acquisitions, alongside a secondary sale to give existing shareholders some liquidity.
Akshat Rathee, co-founder and managing director of NODWIN Gaming, said Benninghoff understands “the entire lifecycle of the gaming and media ecosystem, from the boots-on-the-ground reality of building startups to the strategic complexity of managing multi-billion dollar global portfolios.”
Benninghoff, for his part, said the company “sits at the intersection of sports, entertainment, and technology, making it one of the most exciting players in the global gaming landscape today.”
A portfolio built for the global south
Founded in 2014 by Rathee and Gautam Virk, NODWIN has quietly assembled one of the more compelling esports portfolios outside the Western hemisphere. Its properties include DreamHack India and Comic Con India, and it recently acquired StarLadder, the Ukraine-based tournament organiser behind premier events in CS:GO and Dota 2. The company also serves as a long-term strategic marketing partner for the Evolution Championship Series (EVO), the world’s most prominent fighting game tournament, helping push it into new geographies.
Its geographic focus spans South Asia, Central Asia, Southeast Asia, the Middle East and Africa. Backers include Nazara Technologies, KRAFTON, Sony Group Corporation, JetSynthesys, and the founders’ investment vehicle Good Game Investments.
What comes next
With UBS running the books, a board freshly reinforced with European media and gaming expertise, and revenue heading in the right direction, NODWIN is laying the groundwork deliberately. The esports industry has burned investors before with big promises and thin margins. NODWIN’s return to profitability, combined with a real portfolio of owned intellectual properties across gaming, music and youth culture, gives it a more credible runway than most. The IPO clock is now ticking.
