Glamanand International India is a national beauty pageant in India that annually selects representative to compete in Miss Universe and Miss Grand International.[1][2][3] The pageant also selects representatives to Miss Multinational, an international pageant organized by the Glamanand group.[4][5]

The reigning Glamanand Supermodel India 2023 (Miss Grand India) is Arshina Sumbul, who was crowned by the outgoing titleholder Praachi Nagpal.[7]
India's representatives to the Miss International beauty pageant were initially selected by the Eve's Weekly Miss India contest, since its inception in 1960, until the year 1988.[8]
Since the year 1991, Femina Miss India sent Indian delegates to compete at Miss International, and was successful in producing two first runners-up and one second runner-up.[9] The last highest placement of Femina Miss India's representative at Miss International was achieved by Shonali Nagrani, who was crowned as the first runner-up in Miss International 2003.[10][11] The Times Group dropped the franchise of Miss International in 2015. The last representative to Miss International by the Miss India Organization was Jhataleka Malhotra in 2014.[12][13]
The Glamanand Group acquired the rights to send India's delegates to the Miss International in the year 2015.[14] The first edition of this pageant was held on 4 November 2015 at Courtyard Marriott Hotel, New Delhi.[15] Supriya Aiman became the first delegate to win the title of Glamanand Miss International India.[16] Since 2015 onwards, Glamanand Supermodel India has been responsible for the selection of Miss International India.[17][18]
