Bhang's legal status in India is complex and varies by region. While legal in many parts of the country and often sold during festivals like Holi, its regulation is tied to the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act.

It is legal in many parts of India and mainly sold during Holi, when pakoras containing bhang are also sometimes eaten. Uttar Pradesh has licensed bhang shops, and in many places in India one can buy bhang products and drink bhang lassis.
