It also provided a Rs 50 lakh cover for each athlete at the Commonwealth Games that took place at Gold Coast in Australia earlier this year.
Extending his good wishes to the contingent, IOA Secretary General Rajeev Mehta said: “This partnership paves the way for many more companies in the private sector to come forward and support the development of sports in the country, nurturing a talent pool that will propel Team India to take its rightful place in the global sporting arena.”
