The base prices for these categories have been fixed at 18 lakh for A+ wrestlers, 12 lakh for Category A, 8 lakh for Category B, and 3 lakh for Category C, offering franchises a structured and transparent bidding framework. The auction pool features a strong mix of elite international competitors, including Olympic and world champions and medallists and established stars.
