India at the 2025 Summer World University Games

India competed at the 2025 Summer World University Games, held from 16 July to 27 July 2025 in Rhine-Ruhr region, Germany. The nation sent its largest-ever delegation, comprising over 300 athletes from various colleges nationwide. India finished in 20th position after winning 12 medals, two gold, five silver and five bronze.

During the event, the Indian badminton players raised concerns about mismanagement by the Officials, who allegedly threatened the players when they raised the issue. The Association of Indian Universities took action against the erring officials after returning to India by constituting an inquiry committee. Baljit Singh Sekhon, Joint Secretary, was placed under suspension.

In swimming, Srihari Nataraj, broke the Indian record in the men's 100m freestyle, clocking 49.46 seconds on way to the semifinals.
