Sports Ministry Grants Provisional NSF Status to FMSCI to Support Formula 1 Return
The Sports Ministry has provisionally recognized the Federation of Motor Sports Clubs of India (FMSCI) as a National Sports Federation, aiming to enhance coordination as India pursues the return of Formula 1. The FMSCI, led by Arindam Ghosh, must amend its constitution to comply with the National Sports Governance Act, 2025. The government has eased affiliation norms and assigned FMSCI a key role in promoting motorsports. A Task Force will soon assess the benefits of hosting major motorsport events in India.
