Federation of Motor Sports Clubs of India

The Federation of Motor Sports Clubs of India, abbreviated as FMSCI, is the governing body for motor sports in India and was founded in 1971. It is a long-standing member of the Fédération Internationale de Motocyclisme (FIM) and Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA), the world bodies for 2/3 and 4 wheeler motor sport respectively.

FMSCI is the only national motor sport federation recognised by the Government of India for promotion and control of motorsport in India, and is affiliated to the Indian Olympic Association. The FMSCI is affiliated to the Asian Motorcycle Union (UAM), the Continental Asian wing of the FIM in 1986. FMSCI has been the FMN of the FIM uninterrupted for the last three decades.

FMSCI was the Indian ASN in FIA from 1979 to 1999 but lost the status for eight years to Motorsports Association of India (MAI) which was formed by founding member Nazir Hoosein, who engineered the split. On 6 April 2000, FIA dismissed FMSCI as the Indian ASN and transferred the ASN status to newly founded MAI. FMSCI was given back the ASN status in April 2008 but MAI briefly won an appeal to retain its power. Finally, FMSCI regained the power in April 2009 to conduct and oversee motor sports activities in the country. However, MAI remained an ordinary member in the FIA till April 2013 when its membership was scrapped on the recommendation of WMSC.
