Both are leading Indian fantasy sports apps. The 2025-08 PROGA Act paused paid contests on both platforms — that's the context for this comparison.
Brand Authority
Per Wikipedia, Dream11 acquired the 2020 IPL title sponsorship for ₹222 Cr (after Vivo withdrew). In 2023, the Indian cricket team jersey sponsorship for ₹358 Cr from July 2023 to March 2026. These public commercial deals demonstrate Dream11's financial muscle.
My11Circle is backed by Reliance Jio, but the scope of public sponsorships has not yet reached Dream11's level.
