New Delhi: One of India largest business conglomerates, Tata has stepped in as the title sponsor of Indian Premier League from this year.
IPL chairman Brijesh Patel confirmed after the governing council meeting on Tuesday. “Vivo has exited and the Tatas will be title sponsors,” said Patel.

Vivo had a deal of Rs 2200 crore for title sponsorship rights from 2018-2022. However, the Chinese smartphone makers had paused the deal for a year in 2020 in the backdrop of the Galwan Valley military face-off between the Indian and Chinese Army soldiers.
