The Indian National Basketball League (INBL) is a basketball league in India, organized by the Basketball Federation of India (BFI).




History



The INBL was founded in 2021. The league was granted a five-year license by the BFI to run the competition and also help promote the 3x3 version of the game. In its first season, the INBL allowed only Indian players to participate, with the aim being to provide players with additional competitive games to improve their standards towards the Elite Pro Basketball League and look to qualify for competitions such as the Olympics and World Cups.
The inaugural season was held between October 2022 and January 2023 across three different cities, namely Kochi, Pune and Delhi. The Chennai Heat won the first-ever INBL championship after defeating the Bengaluru Kings in the finals, that were hosted in the Kanteerava Indoor Stadium in Bengaluru.
Following the 5x5 tournament, the INBL also hosted an inaugural 3x3 tournament.
In May 2024, the league was relaunched as INBL Pro with an August start date and six city-based teams. The competition ultimately did not go ahead due to contract and legal disputes.
On 30 October 2024, the Indian Panthers, a team owned by the INBL Pro, entered the New Zealand National Basketball League (NZNBL) for the 2025 season. The team will be based exclusively in South Auckland.
