Additionally, the Titans FAM App (Gujarat Titans’ official app) may also offer tickets. However, GT tickets are NOT available on District by Zomato or any other platform.

Furthermore, there is no general offline ticket sale at the Narendra Modi Stadium. GT has gone fully digital for IPL 2026, so the box office is reserved only for differently-abled fans.

GT vs RCB Match 42 Ticket Prices at Narendra Modi Stadium

Since this is a GT vs RCB marquee fixture at the world’s largest cricket stadium, demand is extremely high. As a result, the lower-priced tiers have already sold out. Here is the current availability from BookMyShow.

Stand / CategoryPriceStatus
Block J / General Upper Tier₹1,200SOLD OUT
Mid-Tier Blocks₹1,500SOLD OUT
Premium Blocks₹2,000SOLD OUT
Torrent / BKT Tyres Blocks₹3,000SOLD OUT
South Premium East / West Bays₹6,000AVAILABLE (Filling Fast)
Torrent President Gallery₹15,000Available
Birla Estates Presidential Suites₹17,000Available
Premium Hospitality Suites₹22,000Available

The cheapest available option is currently the South Premium East/West Bays at ₹6,000. On top of this, BookMyShow charges a convenience fee of ₹519.20, bringing the total to approximately ₹6,519.20.

Why is this match so expensive? The combination of Virat Kohli’s RCB visiting the world’s largest stadium creates extraordinary demand. When RCB play away, their massive travelling fanbase inflates ticket prices everywhere. Consequently, this is one of the priciest GT home matches of the season.

Key Differences from Earlier GT Matches

Ticket limit is 6 per booking (not the usual 10). This tighter cap is likely in place to manage the massive demand for this fixture and reduce scalping.

Tickets are M-Tickets (digital only) for this match. Unlike the earlier GT vs KKR match (which offered physical home delivery), this fixture uses QR-based digital tickets accessible from the BookMyShow app.

Match-Day Tips for GT vs RCB at Narendra Modi Stadium

Act immediately. With 29,200+ fans interested and tickets “Filling Fast”, the ₹6,000 South Premium sections will consequently sell out soon. Higher tiers will follow quickly.

Maximum 6 tickets per booking. Since this is lower than the usual 10-ticket limit for GT matches, coordinate with friends or family to book from multiple accounts if you need more.

Always check “Apply Offers”. BookMyShow frequently partners with banks for IPL cashback. In particular, Scapia credit card holders sometimes get early access to GT tickets.

Match-Day Essentials

Your phone IS your ticket. This match uses M-Tickets (digital QR code) only. No physical tickets are issued. Consequently, charge your phone to 100% before heading to the stadium.

Also, carry a valid government ID (Aadhaar, PAN, or Passport) alongside your digital ticket for entry verification.

Items not allowed inside include outside food, large bags, professional cameras, power banks, glass bottles, and sharp objects.

Ahmedabad in late April means temperatures around 38-42°C during the day, cooling to about 30-32°C by evening. Stay hydrated throughout. The stadium has free water stations.

Arrive 2-3 hours early. With over 1 lakh fans expected, security queues at the Narendra Modi Stadium can stretch for a very long time. Getting there well before gates open is essential.
