The Indian contingent will kick off its campaign at the 2024 Paris Olympics on July 25. 117 athletes will be in action, competing in 69 medal events across 16 sports - Archery, athletics, badminton, boxing, equestrian, golf, hockey, judo, rowing, sailing, shooting, swimming, table tennis and tennis. India returned with a record medal haul from Tokyo 2022, comprising seven medals, including a gold, and hence, will look to better the tally at Paris 2024.

All eyes will be on Neeraj Chopra, who will be defending his gold medal in the men's javelin throw and hopes to breach the 90-metre mark for the first time in his career. The qualifiers for the discipline are scheduled for August 6, with the final two days later. Meanwhile, two-time Olympic medallist PV Sindhu will be seen in action in badminton events between July 27 and August 5, while Tokyo 2020 silver medallist Mirabai Chanu’s women’s 49kg weightlifting event is scheduled for August 7. Other individual medal hopes include boxers, Nikhat Zareen, two-time world champion, and Tokyo bronze medallist Lovlina Borgohain.

While archers Deepika Kumari and Tarundeep Rai, will be the first Indians to compete at Paris Olympics, in the individual ranking rounds on July 25, India's first medal event - mixed team 10m air rifle - will be two days later, with two Indian teams - Sandeep Singh/Elavenil Valarivan and Arjun Babuta/Ramita Jindal - in action at the National Shooting Center in Chateauroux.
