We carry out a systematic investigation for minimal Scotogenic models based on a dark
gauge symmetry, in which the neutrino masses are induced at the one-loop level and include a chiral dark matter (DM) candidate. Assuming this gauge symmetry is broken by only one Higgs singlet scalar that also generates masses to all dark fermions, we analyze the stability of the DM candidate which is ensured by a residual symmetry of
gauge symmetry. There can be different DM scenarios explored in this framework and we investigate the associated scalar and fermonic DM phenomenology of one of the minimal models.
