The Ministry of Sports of the Government of India officially approved the Indian contingent of 492 athltest for the upcoming Asian Games 2026, scheduled to take place from September 19 to October 4 in Aichi-Nagoya, Japan. The roster comprises 265 male and 227 female competitors.

Additional athletes may still join the squad, pending final clearance from the Olympic Council of Asia (OCA).
