Tata Group to replace Vivo as IPL title sponsors this year: Brijesh Patel
- "Yes, Tata group is coming in as IPL title sponsor," IPL chairman Brijesh Patel said
- Vivo had a Rs 2,200 crore deal to remain as the tournament's title sponsors from 2018 to 2022
- They were replaced by Dream XI in 2020 in the aftermath of the Galvan Valley military face-off
Tata Group will replace Chinese mobile manufacturer Vivo as the title sponsor of the Indian Premier League (IPL) from this year, the league’s chairman Brijesh Patel told news agency PTI on Tuesday. The news comes after the league’s six-member governing council agreed on the decision in a meeting earlier today.
“Yes, Tata group is coming in as IPL title sponsor,” IPL chairman Brijesh Patel told PTI.
Vivo had a Rs 2,200 crore deal to remain as the tournament’s title sponsors from 2018 to 2022 but were replaced by Dream XI in 2020 in the aftermath of the Galvan Valley military face-off between the Indian Army and the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) of China.
Vivo returned as the title sponsors in 2021 despite rumours that the company were looking to offload their rights to a suitable bidder and that the BCCI had approved the move.
