MISS INDIA HERITAGE 2026

Applicants must be women aged 18 to 27 years as of 1 January 2026, unmarried, and either Indian citizens or Persons of Indian Origin (PIO/OCI cardholders are welcome to apply). A minimum height of 5'4" (162 cm) is required for the runway and finale segments.

Applicants should be prepared to speak to their cultural background, community involvement or a personal cause during the interview and preliminary rounds — this is not an appearance-only competition, and heritage storytelling carries meaningful weight in scoring.

All applicants must submit valid government identification, complete the medical declaration, and where applicable, provide parental or guardian consent. A complete list of required documents is available during registration.
