"Moving the India Open to the Indira Gandhi Indoor Stadium this year marks an important step in the tournament’s evolution," BAI General Secretary Sanjay Mishra said in a release.
"The larger venue allows us to accommodate significantly more fans while delivering a better on-ground experience for players and spectators alike.
"As Indian badminton continues to grow in stature, it is essential that our flagship events evolve in step, creating spaces where the sport, the athletes and the fans can all thrive together," said Mishra.
BAI has been exploring alternate venues after Denmark shuttler Mia Blichfeldt had criticised "unacceptable" playing conditions during the India Open in its last edition.
