India has surged into the fourth position on the official medals table at the Commonwealth Games 2026 in Glasgow, propelled by a phenomenal, record-breaking campaign on the mats, rings, and tracks. With the overall collection reaching 39 medals comprising 13 gold, 17 silver, and 9 bronze, the Indian contingent has thoroughly proved its mettle on the international stage despite missing key stronghold disciplines like traditional hockey, badminton, and wrestling.
The tone for the multi-sport showcase was initially set by weightlifting powerhouse Mirabai Chanu, who captured India’s inaugural gold in the 48kg category, closely following para powerlifter Jhandu Kumar’s opening bronze. From there, the team unlocked numerous milestone achievements, headlined by Tejaswin Shankar becoming the first Indian ever to secure a decathlon medal, and distance runner Gulveer Singh scripting history as the first Indian athlete to claim two track medals at a single edition of the Commonwealth Games through his silver in the 10,000m and bronze in the 5,000m.
