FAQ

IPL 2027 retentions: quick answers

When is the IPL 2027 retention deadline?: The deadline is reported as 17 November 2026, moved from 15 November. The IPL has not published an official notice of the date yet (source: ANI (via NewKerala)).
How many players can IPL 2027 teams retain, and what is the purse?: The IPL has not published a 2027 retention limit yet. Each team's purse for the auction is not announced yet; it comes with that team's official retention list. The official figure so far is the 2027 salary cap of Rs 157 crore per team (IPL Governing Council, TATA IPL player regulations 2025–27 (iplt20.com)). It covers the auction purse, incremental performance pay and match fees, so it is not the auction purse.
When and where is the IPL 2027 auction?: The IPL 2027 auction is reported for Wednesday 16 December 2026 in Goa (ITC Grand Goa reported). Neither the date nor the venue is confirmed by the IPL yet.
Where do the official IPL 2027 retention lists come from?: Official lists come from the IPL (iplt20.com). Each team section on this page fills in from its official list, with retained and released players, purse left for the auction and a link to the source. Until a team's list is published, its section says so.
