Along with PUBG, the Indian government had banned 117 other Chinese apps amid the ongoing border tensions between India and China.
According to the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY), the decision "is a targeted move" to ensure safety, security and sovereignty of Indian cyberspace.
FAU-G app has been developed by nCore Games, a mobile games and interactive entertainment company based out of Bengaluru as per its profile on LinkedIn.
“We primarily develop multi-player games with immersive storylines that have a strong connect with Indian ethos. We also bring to India and publish games from top global studios for the Indian market,” the company said.
