The Indian delegation to the Games consists of 70 male and 47 female participants.

With 29 athletes, track and field athletes will be the most represented, followed by shooters with 21 competitors. The sole weightlifter from India competing in the Tokyo Games in 2021 will be Mirabai Chanu, a silver medallist. Judo, rowing, and equestrian sports will each have a single competitor.

The Indian Olympics Association President stated in a statement on Wednesday, July 17, "You can see this from the fact that instead of the usual 3:1 ratio between athletes and support staff, we have worked hard to change it to slightly better than 1:1 ratio."
