Team IND were the Indian BGMI lineup of Insidious Esports, the records's separate 'Team Insidious' row refers to the same entity, and this page merges them. Their best-known result is winning the BGMI Launch Party in 2021, the official launch event for Battlegrounds Mobile India, with a roster built around Snax and Daljit alongside Kratos and Trance. CricFit reported the Launch Party title; Sportskeeda later covered the dissolution of the BGMI roster.
The roots go back to the PUBG Mobile era. Team IND finished second at the PMCO India Spring Split 2019, with Sc0utOP playing for the side before his Fnatic move, Dot Esports noted the 12th-place finish at the PMCO Spring Split prelims in its Fnatic signing report. The organisation re-entered the frame for BGMI in 2021, and the Launch Party win was the payoff.
The later history is a winding-down. Sportskeeda reported Team IND dissolving its BGMI roster, and the former lineup's trail leads toward VLT and other homes. The PMCO 2019 runners-up finish and the Launch Party title are the two verified competitive headlines; the exact end date of the lineup is not claimed here.
Liquipedia's former roster closes the story on 25 November 2021, when six players left on the same day: captain Kratos, Snax, Daljitsk, Attanki, Slayer and Trance. Kratos, Snax, Daljitsk and Attanki moved on to Velocity Gaming, while Slayer joined Global Esports. The staff side of the page names Krish “wArLocK” Kanwate as owner and Aradhay “CartOonZ” Gupta as team manager, and the organisation was founded by Arush “Gaming With AB” Bhardwaj.
