The BWF has shifted the India Open Super 750 to February for the 2027 season, with the tournament scheduled from February 2-7 in New Delhi. The event will return to its traditional January slot in 2028, to be held from January 25-30, according to the 2027-28 World Tour calendar released on Tuesday.
The move comes after the 2026 India Open, held in January, drew criticism from leading international players over poor air quality, low indoor temperatures and venue hygiene.
