The 2025-26 Ranji Trophy, running from 15 October 2025 to 28 February 2026, stands as India’s most prestigious domestic first-class cricket championship. Organized annually by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) since 1934, the tournament was originally named “the Cricket Championship of India” before being renamed in 1935 after Ranjitsinhji, India’s first international cricketer who represented England from 1896 to 1902.
Currently featuring 38 teams representing India’s 28 states and several union territories, this championship remains the cornerstone of Indian domestic cricket, nurturing talent across stadiums nationwide. Here is the updated points table of the Ranji Trophy.
Ranji Trophy Points Table – Elite and Plate Groups
The Ranji Trophy is structured into two main divisions: Elite Groups (A, B, C, D) featuring 32 top-tier state teams competing for knockout qualification, and the Plate Group comprising six emerging cricket associations.
Teams earn points through outright victories, first-innings leads, and drawn matches, with Net Run Rate serving as the decisive tiebreaker when teams finish level on points.

|---|---|
| Win (normal) | 6 |
| Win by an innings or by 10 wickets (with bonus) | 7 (6 + 1 bonus) |
| Draw, with first-innings lead | 3 |
| Draw, with first-innings deficit | 1 |
| Draw, first innings unfinished / No result / FI tied | 1 |
| Tie after both innings completed | 3 |
| Loss | 0 |
