Alright so here’s how I dug up the full 2023 sponsor list for Royal Challengers Bangalore. Started simple: popped “RCB sponsors 2023” into my search bar. Figured it’d be straightforward. Boy, was I wrong.
First results were all messy, outdated junk. News articles bragging about a couple big names – like Muthoot or Tata Motors – but nothing complete. Annoying as heck. Kept digging, clicking through cricket forums and fan sites. People kept asking but nobody had the full picture. Just bits and pieces tossed around.
The Turning Point
Finally remembered: gotta go official. Headed straight to the RCB app and their official website. Buried deep – like, really deep – in their partner section, there it was. Not neatly listed, though. Had to click every sponsor tile individually, copy-paste names into a text doc. Seriously tedious.
Making Sense of the Chaos
Had a messy text file full of names now. Needed categories. Grouped them like this:
- Title Sponsor: That one was easy – Muthoot.
- Principal Partners: Big boys paying serious cash. Got 5 names here.
- Associate Partners: Packed section – found 13 hiding in there.
- Proud Partners: Less prominent, but listed. Another 10 popped up.
- Other Stuff: Found 7 more scattered under labels like Beverage Partner, Tech Partner, etc.
Double-Checking Hell
Cross-referenced this raw list against player photos from IPL matches. Zoomed in on logos plastered over jerseys, helmets, practice gear. Identified a few missing from the official site! Like that coffee brand always on Kohli’s training shirt. Tracked those down on social media posts by RCB around key matches. Had to scroll back months. Added them manually.
Finally, sat back with the list. Here’s the complete mess I ended up with:
- Title Sponsor: Muthoot.
- Principal Partners: Kingfisher, Greycroft, Puma, Tata Motors, Dafanews.
- Associate Partners: Epson, KEI, Himalaya, Happilo, Gulf Oil, DP World, *, boAt, Exide, Byju’s, Hindware, Astral Pipes, Rupay.
- Proud Partners: Britannia, Apollo Tyres, Atomberg, SBI Card, Royal Challenge, RuPay, Naturals Salon, SKF, Relio, Royal Fields.
- Rest: Max Life Insurance, Dream11, Zomato, CEAT, JK Lakshmi Cement, Cred, Slice.
Honest truth? Took waaay longer than expected. Official sites don’t make it easy, info’s scattered everywhere, and you gotta be a detective checking jerseys and old tweets. But hey, it’s done. That’s the full 2023 sponsor pile for ya. Straight from the trenches.
