India participated in the 2022 Asian Games, which took place in Hangzhou, Zhejiang, China from September 23, 2023, to October 8, 2023. The increasing number of COVID-19 cases in China caused the event, which was originally slated for September 2022, to be postponed. Later, the event was moved to September–October of 2023.
For the first time in history, India surpassed the 70-medal mark at the 2018 Asian Games, setting a new record and becoming the fourth country in history to reach 100 medals overall, behind China, Japan, and South Korea. India performed best in Archery, Kabaddi, Cricket, and Hockey throughout the games, and second best in Athletics, Shooting, and Squash. India achieved the first-ever gold medal in badminton and the highest medal total in the history of the sport. Indian athletes have also broken numerous world records in the shooting discipline. The men's hockey team automatically qualified for the 2024 Summer Olympics under their gold medal.
Broadcasting
For the India region, Sony Sports Network has the exclusive media rights. Both the OTT platform SonyLIV and television networks carried live broadcasts of the games. In support of the Indian contingent, the network launched a campaign before the tournament with the motto, "Hum Hain, Zidd Pe Sawaar, Iss Baar, Sau Paar, Phir Se, Hum Honge Kamyaab!" which translates to "India shall cross the 100-medal mark this time."
