The 2024 AIFF Super Cup, officially known as the 2024 Kalinga Super Cup for sponsorship reasons, was the fourth edition of the Super Cup and the 42nd season of the national knockout football competition in India.
Odisha were the defending champions, having defeated Bengaluru in the 2023 final.
East Bengal defeated the defending champions Odisha 3âÂÂ2 in the final to win their first national title in 12 years. As the winners, East Bengal have qualified for the 2024âÂÂ25 AFC Champions League Two preliminary stage.
Competition format consists of a Qualifying round, Group stage and a knock-out stage. Group stage featured 16 teams across the top two divisions of Indian football. All 12 from the ISL qualify directly for the group stage. Among the I-League teams confirming their participation (Gokulam Kerala FC, Sreenidi Deccan FC, Shillong Lajong FC, Inter Kashi, and Rajasthan United FC), the top three per 2023âÂÂ24 standings on 24 December qualify for the group stage. The remaining two teams contested a single-leg qualifying play-off to determine the fourth and final I-League team in the group stage.
The 16 qualified teams were drawn into four groups of four each, competing in a single round-robin format, with group winners making it through to the semi-finals.
The matches were held in two different Kalinga Stadium pitches in Odisha.
