India’s largest and only publicly traded gaming and hospitality company has finally gotten Sikkim’s elusive yes to expand into the state.

Delta Corp announced that it had already secured the needed provisional license to operate a casino in the state’s Gangtok area under the Sikkim Casinos Control & Tax Act of 2002, GLaw.in reported.

The hospitality company announced back in April that it has partnered with Hotel WelcomHeritage Denzong Regency for the Sikkim venture. Under the partnership, the hotel will lease the gaming space to Delta Corp., which, in turn, will be “responsible for the day-to-day operations and management of the new casino.”

The gaming company told GLaw.in’s Jay Sayta that the casino is expected to be “casino ready” before the year ends, and “will offer approximately 150 gaming positions” in the new gambling establishment.
