IndianOil Ultimate Table Tennis (UTT), the professional table tennis league in India, has entered into a three-year partnership with sports broadcaster JioStar.
As UTT’s Official Broadcast & Streaming Partner, JioStar will exclusively deliver live, multilingual coverage across TV and digital platforms through 2027.
IndianOil UTT Season 6 is set to reach fans across the country through a dynamic mix of television and digital platforms. Live coverage kicks off on Star Sports 2 (opening day), Star Sports Khel, and Star Sports Tamil. Fans can also stream the high-octane action on JioHotstar in English, Hindi, and Tamil.
Staged under the aegis of the Table Tennis Federation of India (TTFI) and promoted by Niraj Bajaj and Vita Dani, IndianOil UTT has rapidly become one of the most coveted global sports properties in table tennis. In 2024, the league saw 20 million viewers across TV and OTT, a 1.3x increase from the previous year.
IndianOil UTT co-promoters Vita Dani and Niraj Bajaj said, “Over the past few years, Indian table tennis has made meaningful strides, and IndianOil UTT’s mission has been to accelerate that progress by providing a world-class platform for homegrown talent. Our partnership with JioStar for the next three seasons will help us deepen that impact by reaching more households, engaging new audiences, and laying a stronger foundation for the next generation of Indian table tennis stars.”
In the lead-up to Season 6, IndianOil UTT and JioStar will kick off the momentum from May 12.
A total of 48 top-tier paddlers will compete across eight franchises in IndianOil UTT Season 6: Ahmedabad SG Pipers, Chennai Lions, Dabang Delhi TTC, Dempo Goa Challengers TT, Jaipur Patriots, Kolkata ThunderBlades, PBG Pune Jaguars, and U Mumba TT. The Harmeet Desai-led Dempo Goa Challengers are the reigning two-time champions, aiming to become the first team to win three titles.
