The diversified enterprise, with interests spanning co-operative societies, insurance, tourism, and real estate, now steps into professional sports with this move.

The league also features names including Sania Mirza (ambassador, Gurugram Grand Slammers), Mahesh Bhupathi (CEO, SG Sports), Rakul Preet Singh (co-owner, Hyderabad Strikers), and Sonali Bendre (co-owner, Chennai Smashers).

For Guru Samruddhi House of Investments, the acquisition reflects its broader vision of empowerment, inclusivity, and growth - values that the group now extends into the world of professional sport.

Vijay Pusdekar, CMD, Guru Samruddhi and Lead Partner, GS Delhi Aces, said: “We are immensely proud to represent the confidence of putting on a good show for tennis fans in Delhi and across the country.”
