IDFC Becomes The Title Sponsor Of BCCI For 3 Years

[Deep Mody]

The private bank, recognized as Infrastructure Development Finance Company (IDFC), will enter into a contract with the BCCI for a three-year period starting next month, kicking in with three ODIs against Australia. The agreement will extend until August 2026 and cover a total of 56 international games. In total, the BCCI is set to generate nearly Rs 235 crore from this title sponsorship.

Although the increase in value is modest, around 12 percent, given the prevailing market conditions, there's a perception that this represents a favorable arrangement for both the BCCI and the sponsors. This is especially notable considering the limited participation of corporate entities in the bidding process. It's worth mentioning that the BCCI had responded to the market conditions by reducing the base price from Rs 3.8 crore to Rs 2.4 crore. More vitally, the second best bid, by Sony Sports, was believed to be around the base price.
