The Kolkata side won the tournament for only the second time in 2013. It’s been a little over a decade since the team won the competition. It came close in 2021 when it finished as runners-up against FC Goa.

Indian Navy has lost both its games against Bengaluru FC and Inter Kashi. MSC still has a chance to qualify for the Durand Cup knockouts but it will have to beat Indian Navy to go past Inter Kashi.
