A. Dear Client,
Indian laws still don't differentiate between skill-based and chance-based games. Moreover, states such as Assam, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana and Odisha have imposed a blanket prohibition on online games including skill gaming. Generally any game that involves money is perceived as gambling, which is banned in India. It would be best if you reach out to a lawyer and explain him the functioning of the game to be sure.

If you have taken a loan you are liable to pay the sum of the loan but they cannot use measures outside the guidelines as issued by RBI. By this act, they have committed a crime and are liable to be punished as per various Indian penal laws.

A. Dear client,
If the apartment association has a whatsapp group but the residents are not allowed to say anything on it, and if there is no other method through which the residents can raise their concerns, then you can approach the association and ask them to make a separate group allowing the residents to send messages.

A. Dear client,
If the data is of anything that falls under the ambit of trade secret then they can be considered as highly sensitive and also if the data transferred is of value to the company's competitors then it results in loss of financial or intellectual properties. Note that the legal remedy is available to the company as their information was stolen and not your cousin.
