Inter Kashi have been declared the I-League champions following a ruling by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) in Switzerland.
The CAS overturned the All India Football Federation's (AIFF) Appeal Committee's earlier decision that had awarded the title to Churchill Brothers of Goa.
The AIFF had initially named Churchill Brothers as champions after their Appeal Committee ruled against Inter Kashi regarding an 'ineligible player' issue. This decision had resulted in point deductions, placing the Varanasi club in second position.

"The AIFF shall forthwith declare Inter Kashi FC as winner of the I-league 2024-25 season," stated the Lausanne-based CAS in its order.
"The appeal filed on 4 June 2025 by Inter Kashi FC against the decision issued on 31 May 2025 by the Appeal Committee of the All-India
Football Federation is partially upheld."
"The decision issued on 31 May 2025 by the Appeal Committee of the All India Football Federation is set aside," the CAS added.
