India’s national team badge uses the All India Football Federation emblem: a blue shield outline, the word “INDIA,” a central football, and two flowing orange and green flame-like forms. The blue, orange and green palette connects the mark to India’s national colours.
The AIFF described the 2016 logo as representing the Indian tricolour “in the form of a rising flame,” with the football showing the energy and upward movement of Indian football. The shield on the side was introduced to give the mark structure and express the federation’s authority over the game.
The All India Football Federation was founded in 1937 and governs India’s national teams. The current badge therefore works as both the federation logo and the national-team crest, combining India’s name, flag colours, football imagery and AIFF identity.
