India climb to fourth at CWG 2026 after 16-medal Day 10 in Glasgow

On Day 10 of the 2026 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, India produced its most productive session, claiming 16 medals and rising to fourth place on the overall standings with one day remaining.

The late surge was anchored by a remarkable performance in the boxing ring, where competitors secured seven golds and three silvers. Additional podium finishes in para athletics, athletics and judo contributed to the tally, leaving India with 39 medals (13 gold, 17 silver and nine bronze) in Glasgow.

Boxing supplied the bulk of the haul, with the seven golds and three silvers accounting for ten of the 16 medals won on the day. That run underlines how pivotal the discipline proved to be for India’s medal push during the penultimate day of competition.

Para athletics added crucial podiums that bolstered the country’s total, complementing the successes elsewhere across the programme. Those results helped diversify the medal sources beyond the combat sports that dominated the scoreboard.

Athletics also featured on the medal list, with Indian entries reaching the podium and contributing to the aggregate count. The mixed contributions across events helped keep the nation in contention as the Games approached their final day.

Judo produced further medals that fed into the overall surge, reinforcing a multi-sport effort that lifted India in the standings. The combination of successes across different disciplines proved decisive for the day’s advancement.

With one day remaining in Glasgow, India sits fourth on the Commonwealth Games medal table on the back of the 16-medal performance, holding 39 medals (13 gold, 17 silver and nine bronze). The late rally has positioned the team strongly as the tournament closes.
