How to start a LAN gaming center? policies? licenses?

[zook]

Hey guys,

Wanted to know what are the rules involved in starting a PC based LAN gaming center?

Mainly want to know about:

a) Government licenses: what kind of approvals & licenses are needed from the govt for this kind of a setup in Bangalore and Chennai (both places)?

b) Games licenses: how to get a license for such a setup?

Anyone on the forum has any experience on this?

Thanks in advance

update: Nobody knows? Request the ones who frequent gaming centres to check with the store guys and post an update please... Thanks..
