The Association of Mutual Funds in India (AMFI) has extended its partnership with the Paralympic Committee of India (PCI) as an associate partner from March 2025 to November 2026.
Under this renewed partnership, AMFI will engage with audiences across marquee events including the World Para Athletics Championships (September–October 2025), the Para Commonwealth Games (July 2026), and the Para Asian Games (October 2026).
Navneet Munot, chairman of AMFI, remarked, “Our para-athletes personify grit, determination, and purpose—qualities that also define successful investors. Extending this partnership is a matter of pride for AMFI as we continue to draw powerful parallels between their incredible journeys and the value of consistent, long-term investing. We are honored to support these exceptional individuals as they pursue their dreams and represent our nation with distinction. Together we want to convey that dreams are fulfilled with long term effort and dedication”
Venkat Chalasani, chief executive, AMFI, emphasised, "This collaboration goes beyond sponsorship—it represents a shared mission to promote empowerment in every sense. Just as mutual funds aim to make financial wellbeing accessible for every Indian, our para-athletes demonstrate that no goal is out of reach. We look forward to walking this path together and celebrating every milestone for the nation. This partnership also aligns with and supports the Indian government's efforts to strengthen the sports ecosystem and nurture talent from every corner of the country."
Devendra Jhajharia, president, PCI, said, “I am proud to welcome the Association of Mutual Funds in India as our long-term partner and re affirming their faith in us for the second term. This collaboration represents a shared vision of excellence, perseverance and inclusion. Our para-athletes consistently demonstrate extraordinary determination and skill, and with AMFI's support, we can provide them with the platform they deserve. This partnership will be instrumental as we prepare for upcoming marquee events and continue to build a robust ecosystem for para-sports in India. Together, we will inspire millions and showcase the remarkable abilities of our para-athletes."
Neerav Tomar, founder and managing director, IOS Sports & Entertainment, said, “This partnership between the Paralympic Committee of India and the Association of Mutual Funds in India marks a crucial moment for para-sports in our country. By supporting our athletes as they prepare for prestigious competitions like the World Para Athletics Championships, Para-Commonwealth Games, and Para-Asian Games, AMFI is not just investing in medals, but in the inspiring human stories that define Paralympic sports. We are confident that this long-term association will significantly enhance the resources available to our para-athletes and help elevate Indian para-sports to new heights on the global stage."
