The Emami partnership witnessed a significant period of achievement for East Bengal FC across both men’s and women’s football, with the Club reaching several landmark milestones. The Men’s team won East Bengal’s first-ever ISL Championship in 2026, along with the Kalinga Super Cup in 2024 and consecutive Calcutta Football League titles in 2024 and 2025.

The Group remains proud of its association with East Bengal and wishes the Club, its players, officials, and supporters continued success in the seasons ahead.
