Glamanand Supermodel India is a national beauty pageant in India that annually selects a representative to compete in Miss Grand International.[1][2][3] The pageant also selects representatives to Miss Multinational, an international pageant organized by the Glamanand group.[4][5]

Nikhil Anand, the founder and CEO of Glamanand Group, serves as one of the National Directors.[6]

The reigning Glamanand Supermodel India 2023 (Miss Grand India) is Arshina Sumbul, who was crowned by the outgoing titleholder Praachi Nagpal.

History

India has always participated in Miss Grand International since its inception in 2013. In the first two editions, 2013 to 2014, the right to send Indian delegates to compete at Miss Grand International was with the Indian Princess pageant, which was managed by Atharva Group of Institutes, and one of its finalists was chosen to join Miss Grand International.[7][8][9][10]

In 2015, the license was taken over by the Bennett, Coleman and Company Limited, and the country's representatives for Miss Grand International were directly determined by Femina Miss India pageant each year.[11][12][13][14]

Subsequently, the Glamanand Group acquired the rights to send India's representations to Miss Grand International, and a new pageant Miss Grand India was established by the Glamanand Group since 2023, which is a part of Glamanand Supermodel India.[15][16]
