Born to a basketball coach father in Punjab, the game holds a deep personal connect.”

INBL Pro is open to partnering with any organizations, individuals, or corporates that will contribute towards realizing the larger vision. Our only motto is to make basketball grow in India.”

Parveen Batish, CEO of INBL, passionately shared, “For me, basketball is not just a sport; it’s a way of life that has infused every aspect of my personal and professional journey. Having worked at all levels of the sport in Australia as a coach, a player, and an administrator, along with some great institutions, from Basketball Australia and Basketball Victoria to the NBL and local associations, I’ve gained invaluable experience. Being a basketball coach myself and having my daughters play at the professional level, the game runs in the family or in our veins, literally.
