# List of Indian representatives at international male beauty pageants

India selects its delegates for international male beauty pageants through several national competitions held throughout the year. Winners and runners-up from these events are sent to represent the nation at various prestigious international competitions.
Currently, three primary national pageants stand out: Times Mister India, Rubaru Mister India, and Mister Supranational India. Each selects contestants through their own processes, culminating in the coronation of winners and runners-up.
These national titles serve as gateways to various international platforms. Winners and runners-up may compete in renowned pageants like Mister World, Mister Supranational, Mister International, Mister Global, Manhunt International, and Man of the World, alongside several other prominent regional events.

## History
### Early years and franchise development (1994–2012)

The inaugural Mister India World pageant (1994), organized by Adonis-Graviera, selected Bikram Saluja as India's representative for the first-ever Mister World in 1996. The same year (1994), the Gladrags Manhunt and Megamodel Contest chose Rajat Bedi to represent India at the inaugural Manhunt International, where he achieved the 4th Runner-Up placement. Graviera continued to organize the Mister India World pageant, with Sachin Khurana winning the 1998 edition and representing India at the international competition. Grasim Mr. India acquired the franchise for Mister World in 1994, holding it until 2007. They returned as franchise holders from 2010 to 2012, during which they actively sent delegates to the international pageant. Haywards 5000 briefly held the franchise ownership in 2007, sending Kawaljit Anand Singh to Mister World.

### Ownership transition and recent developments (since 2014)

The Times Group acquired the rights to send India's representatives to Mister World in 2014, continuing the legacy established by previous franchise holders. In 2023, a new national organization named Mister Supranational India, led by Himadri Bhatnagar, acquired the rights to send a representative to Mister Supranational 2023. Their first delegate, Raj Sunil Singh, participated in the 2023 pageant but did not advance to the semi-finals, marking the end of India's consecutive placements at the competition since its inaugural edition in 2016.
