■ Chapter 1: What Is the South India Rally? — 49 Editions of History

The South India Rally was founded in 1978, making it one of India's oldest motorsport events. In 2026 it held its 49th edition. The rally is based around Chikmagalur in Karnataka state — a high-altitude coffee-growing region where gravel stages thread through plantations above 1,000 metres. In recent years the event has been incorporated as an official APRC round, transforming it from a domestic competition into an international stage drawing Asia-Pacific's fastest rally crews.

Gravel rally culture is not widespread in India. Sprint events on sealed roads dominate the domestic calendar. Against that backdrop, a gravel-based APRC round in the hills of Karnataka is an anomaly — and a significant one. The South India Rally gives Indian fans something they rarely see: a proper gravel rally on home soil, at a level that connects them to the wider world of international motorsport.
