The association was also in place during the Commonwealth Games Glasgow 2026, where the Indian contingent won a total of 39 medals, including 13 gold, 17 silver and nine bronze.
India is set to host the Commonwealth Games in Ahmedabad in 2030 and is also making efforts to secure the hosting rights for the Olympic and Paralympic Games in 2036. Against this backdrop, the renewal of the Adani Group’s partnership with the Indian Olympic Association as principal sponsor marks a continuation of its association with Indian sport.
IOA President and former Olympian PT Usha welcomed the continuation of the association and highlighted the role of institutional support in helping Indian athletes prepare for major international competitions.
“The performance of India at the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow showcased the talent and growing strength of our athletes. We are grateful to the Adani Group for continuing its association with the Indian Olympic Association. As we look towards the Asian Games and Commonwealth Games in Ahmedabad in 2030, such support will be essential to help our athletes prepare and compete at their best. We look forward to continuing this association as Indian sport progresses,” she said.
The Adani Group said its sports-related initiatives include grassroots programmes, athlete support, community engagement and professional sports. Its ‘Garv Hai’ initiative has supported Indian athletes, while its grassroots academies focus on developing talent across multiple sports.
The group has also supported fitness and mass-participation initiatives through the Adani Ahmedabad Marathon, whose 10th edition is scheduled for November 29. In addition, it is involved in professional sporting leagues through franchise ownership.
The renewal of the Adani Group’s association with the Indian Olympic Association as principal sponsor therefore extends its existing engagement with Indian sport, with the partnership covering Team India’s participation at the Asian Games in Aichi-Nagoya and continuing beyond the continental event.
