The Indian Olympic Association (IOA) on Wednesday (August 13, 2025) formally approved the country's bid to host the 2030 Commonwealth Games during its Special General Meeting (SGM) in New Delhi.

India has already submitted an Expression of Interest for the 2030 CWG with Ahmedabad as the host city. But the nation will have to submit the proposals for the final bid before the August 31 deadline.

With Canada having pulled out of the race, India's chances of getting the 2030 CWG have brightened.

A team of officials from Commonwealth Sport, led by its Director of Games Darren Hall, recently visited Ahmedabad to inspect the venues and meet Gujarat government officials.
