Sourabh Chandrakar set up the Mahadev betting empire along with co-founder Ravi Uppal.

Sourabh Chandrakar, the alleged mastermind behind the Mahadev online betting syndicate, has been extradited from Oman to India after months in custody. The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) secured his extradition and he will be produced before the CBI Special Court in Raipur. Chandrakar, along with his associate Ravi Uppal, set up the Mahadev betting network in 2018, which reportedly generated illegal profits estimated at ₹6,000 crore.

The syndicate operated through a franchise-based network of betting panels and branches across India, using platforms like Tiger Exchange, Gold365, and Laser247.

Jobs that modify data within spreadsheet can run automatically
Jobs deleting data, sending info outside company need human approval
Approval step creates idle time if approver unavailable
