Ultimate Table Tennis (UTT), India’s premier table tennis league, has prolonged its partnership with IndianOil as the Title Sponsor for its forthcoming season.
This year’s UTT edition is scheduled to be held at the Jawaharlal Nehru Indoor Stadium in Chennai from August 22 to September 7. It will feature eight teams for the first time. The two new teams, Jaipur Patriots and Ahmedabad SG Pipers, will be joining the likes of defending champions Goa Challengers alongside Chennai Lions, Dabang Delhi TTC, U Mumba TT, Puneri Paltan Table Tennis, and PBG Bengaluru Smashers.

As part of the sponsorship, IndianOil will enjoy visibility on live broadcasts along with a strong digital and on-ground presence. IndianOil branding will be prominently displayed on court floor stickers, courtside LED boards, and around the umpire’s chair. The sponsorship also includes exclusive branding of timeouts as “IndianOil Time Out”. Furthermore, each tie will feature a distinctive IndianOil-branded award.
The competition format has undergone a slight change this year. The teams will be divided into two groups of four teams each. Each team will continue to compete in five ties during the league stage, facing all other teams within their respective group once along with two randomly-selected teams from the opposing group determined through a draw.
UTT promoters Vita Dani and Niraj Bajaj released a joint statement on the matter, which read:
“We are delighted to have IndianOil come back as our title sponsor for UTT 2024. Having one of the largest and most trusted companies in India certainly reinsures our efforts toward growing the sport.“
Sandeep Sharma, Executive Director (Corporate Communications and Branding), IndianOil, added:
“Continuing with our commitment to supporting Indian sports and nurturing talent across various disciplines, IndianOil is proud to partner with Season 5 of Ultimate Table Tennis. We are more than happy to make a meaningful contribution to the growth of table tennis in India and hope to see a thriving sporting culture in India through this association.“
