India's history at the Olympic games goes back to the year 1900, during their pre-independence era under British rule.

It was Norman Pritchard who had kicked off the country's medal tally at the Olympics in 1900, by winning two silver medals in athletics. Consequently, India became the first ever Asian nation to win an Olympic medal.
