Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V in India

This refers to the Hindi, Tamil and Telegu adaption of Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V in India. The licence, along with Doraemon and Crayon Shin-chan, are held only by Spacetoon in India on behalf of Animation International.

For some years after Yu-Gi-Oh! was released in India, some of the Yu-Gi-Oh! fans wants to re-air Yu-Gi-Oh! again on Hungama TV, but failed. However, a promo about a new Yu-Gi-Oh! season was shown on TV, probably on Hungama TV, and it was revealed that the new season was "Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V".
