Indian National Badminton Championships

The Indian National Badminton Championships is a tournament organized to crown the best badminton players in India since 1934. Until the 1960s, foreign players could compete in the championships, which is why the winners' lists includes Malaysians and Danes (e.g. Erland Kops).

The championships are locally now referred to as the All Indian National Badminton Championships. The National titles in India are the following:

Men's Singles: Vikas Topiwala Challenge Cup
Women's Singles: Olympian Badminton Challenge Cup
Men's Doubles: Calcutta Badminton Cup
Women's Doubles: All India Badminton Association Cup
Mixed Doubles: Burdwan Challenge Cup
Men's Team: Ibrahim Rahimtoola Cup
Women's Team: Gulab Rai Chadha Cup
