COURT PROCUREMENT GUIDE / INDIA

Buying padel and glass squash courts for an Indian venue.

India court supply guidance covering importer identification, component compliance review, regional site conditions and contractor coordination.

An Indian court enquiry should connect the importing company, the local designer and the eventual operator. Before comparing suppliers, clarify whether the project is an indoor squash fit-out, a new padel facility or a replacement glass back wall.

VELNUZ Courts is a Singapore-based supplier of all-glass squash courts, glass back wall systems and padel courts, working with manufacturing partners in China. This guide combines linked official information with practical questions for your project team.

01 / INDIA PROJECT GUIDE

Define the facility before comparing court packages

For a club in an existing building, provide a measured survey showing room clearances, columns and the delivery route. A rear glass wall for a conventional court is a different order from an all-glass squash court.

For padel, include circulation and service access in the site layout. If a roof is proposed, ask the local designer to coordinate it with the base and court structure. Do not assume the playing area describes the complete land or building requirement.

02 / INDIA PROJECT GUIDE

Use the city and site to set the design brief

State the city and state, whether the venue is inland or coastal, and whether it is indoor or exposed. Ask the local engineer to determine applicable loads, drainage needs and construction details. A configuration used on another Indian site should not be copied without that review.

Describe the operating hours and maintenance arrangements. For an occupied school or residential property, record restrictions on deliveries and construction activity. These practical conditions affect how the court can be received and installed, even where the chosen product type is unchanged.

03 / INDIA PROJECT GUIDE

Check Indian import requirements before dispatch

DGFT’s Foreign Trade Policy sets out Importer-Exporter Code provisions and mandatory import-document requirements. Ask the importing business to confirm the applicable IEC position and any exceptions for its transaction. DGFT import and export provisions ↗

Have the customs representative review the actual components for classification and any product-specific requirements. Include lighting and accessories in that review rather than treating the package name as sufficient. Do not infer Indian product conformity from a supplier’s international sales description.

04 / INDIA PROJECT GUIDE

Keep site readiness separate from shipment timing

Agree the arrival and onward-delivery arrangement for the actual city. Identify the receiving party, unloading equipment and storage location. The local contractor should confirm foundation or room readiness before the assembly date is fixed.

When comparing padel court supply, record who carries out civil works, power connections, installation and final inspection. For squash, add the retained-building and flooring interfaces. An agreed responsibility schedule helps prevent gaps between imported equipment and the local works contract.

BEFORE PROCUREMENT

India court supply: your questions.

Can a standard configuration be used across India without a site review?

The product scope can be a starting point, but local design conditions and building interfaces must be checked for each site.

Should the importer review accessories as well as the court structure?

Yes. Provide the complete goods schedule, including any lighting and other equipment, so the importing party can assess the requirements for the actual shipment.

Discuss a court project in India.

Send the city and state, indoor or outdoor setting, court type and quantity, layout, importer details and the local contractor’s proposed scope.
