Poland's Magda Linette, ranked 41st in the world, and Armenia's Elina Avanesyan, ranked 52nd, will lead the women's field.

The TPL will adopt a 25-point format, with each franchise playing five matches to qualify for the semifinals. Each match will comprise men's singles, women's singles, mixed doubles, and men's doubles, with a total of 100 points at stake. The top four teams in the points table will advance to the semifinals.

Seven franchises will compete for the coveted title: PBG Pune Jaguars, Bengal Wizards, Punjab Patriots, Hyderabad Strikers, Gujarat Panthers, Mumbai Leon Army, and defending champions Bengaluru SG Pipers.

To foster young talent, the TPL has partnered with the Gujarat State Tennis Association (GSTA), Delhi Lawn Tennis Association (DLTA), and Maharashtra State Lawn Tennis Association (MSLTA) to conduct district ranking tournaments. The league has also launched its own mobile app to connect the tennis community across India and track player progress.

The TPL aims to promote tennis at the grassroots level and provide a platform for aspiring players to showcase their skills. The tournament is expected to attract a large audience and generate excitement among tennis fans across the country.
