The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has registered its highest-ever earnings in the financial year 2023-24, earning ₹9,741.7 crore.
This marks a significant jump from previous years, confirming the BCCI's position as the richest cricket board in the world. The Indian Premier League (IPL) continues to be BCCI's main revenue source, contributing a massive ₹5,761 crore, which is around 59% of total earnings.

Since its launch in 2007, the IPL has been a game-changer for Indian cricket, not just in terms of viewership and talent development, but especially in financial returns. Media rights have surged with each cycle, and the demand from broadcasters and sponsors remains sky-high.
The league has also given a huge platform to players from domestic circuits like the Ranji Trophy, turning lesser-known talents into household names.
What makes BCCI's financial strength even more impressive is its income outside of IPL. The board earned ₹361 crore from non-IPL media rights, ₹378 crore from the Women's Premier League (WPL), and close to ₹1,000 crore just from interest on its reserves. In fact, the BCCI holds approximately ₹30,000 crore in reserves, which generates steady returns annually.
IPL: ₹5,761 crore (59.1%)
ICC share: ₹1,042 crore (10.7%) - reflecting India's dominant commercial role in world cricket.
Interest income: ₹987 crore (10.1%) from reserves and investments.
Non-IPL media rights: ₹361 crore (3.9%) from international matches.
Women's Premier League (WPL): ₹378 crore (3.9%), a promising start for women's cricket.
Ticket sales & commercial rights (India's home fixtures): ₹361 crore (3.7%).
BCCI earnings have seen rapid growth in just the last few years. In 2021-22, total revenue stood at around ₹4,360 crore. By 2022-23, it rose to ₹6,820 crore. Now, with ₹9,741.7 crore in 2023-24, the board has added over ₹5,000 crore in two years. Much of this jump came from new IPL media rights deals and increasing commercial partnerships.
