The Syed Modi International Badminton Championships is an international badminton tournament, which is held annually in India.

This tournament was introduced to the badminton circuit as a BWF Grand Prix event in 2009.[1] Since then the tournament is being annually held in Lucknow at the Babu Banarasi Das Indoor Stadium, although it was temporarily shifted to Hyderabad in 2010.[2][3] In 2011, it was upgraded to the Grand Prix Gold event.[4] Badminton World Federation launched a new event structure in 2017. This tournament was later included as a BWF World Tour Super 300 event which began to be competed in 2018.[5]
