Indian Padel Tour gets Mercedes-Benz India as Title Partner
The Indian Padel Tour (IPT), India’s flagship padel circuit, has gained a Title Partner in Mercedes-Benz India for its 2026/27 season.
Mercedes-Benz has come on board after signing a partnership agreement with PadelPark India, a 360° padel ecosystem and the company behind the Indian Padel Tour.
The IPT aims to offer players a platform to grow and develop the country’s national ranking ecosystem through a structured calendar of Grand Slams, City Opens, and Special IP events.
Jigar Doshi, Co-Founder, PadelPark India, commented:
“The Indian Padel Tour was created with a simple ambition: to build the competitive ecosystem that every great sport needs. While participation introduces people to padel, competition inspires them to improve, dream bigger and stay engaged with the sport for years to come. We are proud to welcome Mercedes-Benz India as the Title Partner of IPT. This partnership is not just about supporting tournaments; it is a shared commitment to building the future of padel in India and establishing the country as one of the world’s most exciting emerging markets for the sport.”
Pratik Doshi, Co-Founder, PadelPark India, said:
“The Indian Padel Tour was established to create a structured competitive platform that supports the long-term growth and professionalisation of padel in India. Partnering with a globally respected brand like Mercedes-Benz India is a defining milestone for the tour, reinforcing the sport’s growing stature and potential in the country. Together, we look forward to delivering a world-class season that elevates the player experience, engages a wider audience, and contributes meaningfully to the continued development of India’s padel ecosystem.”
Santosh Iyer, Managing Director & CEO, Mercedes-Benz India, added:
“For us, performance extends beyond the car and into the experiences we build with our customers and communities, whether that’s on a racetrack or, as we’ve seen recently, on a padel court through our partnership with the Indian Padel Tour. The AMG E 53 HYBRID reflects that same commitment to precision engineering, paired with a highly personalised ownership experience for Indian customers.”
