A proper contract is not just about a fixed monthly salary, which starts around ₹40,000 for new players. The critical clauses are for prize pool revenue share, often 70-30 in the player's favour, and clear terms for streaming and brand endorsement incomes, which are where real security lies. What many miss is the non-compete duration after leaving a team; it can idle your career for a year if not negotiated down. I know this because my last contract bought my mother a flat in Ghaziabad, but its restrictive clause kept me from tournaments for eight painful months.
