List of Indian records in athletics

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The following are the national records in athletics in India. Some of the records are maintained by Athletics Federation of India (AFI). Outdoor times for track races between 200 meters to 10,000 meters are set on 400-meter unbanked tracks. Indoor marks are established on 200-meter tracks, whether banked or unbanked. Indoor tracks longer than 200 meters are considered "oversized" and times are not accepted for record purposes.
