KRAFTON India Esports has revealed the updated BMPS 2026 prize pool distribution, and the headline figure is huge. The champions will walk away with ₹1 crore, the centrepiece of a ₹4 crore pool that reaches all the way down to 32nd place.
The total was doubled from ₹2 crore to ₹4 crore on June 8, and the new ladder rewards far more than just the winners. Here is the full breakdown, explained tier by tier.
The headline: a ₹4 crore pool
The total prize pool sits at ₹4 crore after KRAFTON doubled it ahead of the ₹4 crore showdown in Jaipur. The top of the table is where the real money lives. The champions take ₹1 crore, second place earns ₹60 lakh, and third pockets ₹40 lakh.
From there, the gaps stay meaningful through the upper half. Fourth place gets ₹30 lakh, fifth ₹25 lakh, and even eighth place still banks ₹14.5 lakh. A strong finals run pays well beyond the podium.
Full BMPS 2026 prize money breakdown
Here is the complete placement-by-placement split:
| Placement | Prize money |
|---|---|
| Champions | ₹1,00,00,000 |
| 2nd | ₹60,00,000 |
| 3rd | ₹40,00,000 |
| 4th | ₹30,00,000 |
| 5th | ₹25,00,000 |
| 6th | ₹18,00,000 |
| 7th | ₹15,00,000 |
| 8th | ₹14,50,000 |
| 9th–10th | ₹10,00,000 each |
| 11th–12th | ₹8,00,000 each |
| 13th–14th | ₹6,00,000 each |
| 15th–16th | ₹5,00,000 each |
| 17th–20th | ₹2,50,000 each |
| 21st–24th | ₹2,00,000 each |
| 25th–32nd | ₹1,50,000 each |
Why the ladder runs all the way to 32nd
You might wonder how the payouts reach 32nd place when only 16 teams play the Grand Finals. The answer is that the pool is spread across the tournament’s top 32 finishers, well beyond the 16-team Jaipur lineup.
So the finalists fight for the top 16 placements and the biggest cheques. Teams that fell short in the qualifiers, semifinals and Last Chance but still ranked among the top 32 overall pick up a smaller share. That is why even a 25th-to-32nd finish is worth ₹1.5 lakh.
It rewards consistency across the whole season rather than only the final weekend. For the orgs grinding through the long road to Jaipur, that safety net matters.
Individual awards: OMVP, Best IGL and more
Beyond team placements, KRAFTON has set aside cash for standout players. There are four individual awards on the board:
- OMVP (Overall MVP): ₹4 lakh
- Best IGL: ₹2.5 lakh
- MVP (Grand Finals MVP): ₹2 lakh
- Best Clutch: ₹1 lakh
The two MVP awards tend to confuse people, so it is worth clearing up. The OMVP, or Overall MVP, goes to the best player across the whole tournament and carries the bigger ₹4 lakh reward. The plain MVP recognises the standout of the Grand Finals itself, worth ₹2 lakh. Best IGL rewards the sharpest in-game leader, while Best Clutch celebrates the player who pulls off the biggest match-saving moment.
How it all adds up
Add everything together and the math lines up neatly. The placement prizes from first to 32nd come to ₹3.905 crore. The four individual awards add another ₹9.5 lakh. Together, that is exactly ₹4 crore, with nothing left unaccounted for.
The money is only part of the story. The BMPS 2026 champion also secures an international slot, with a second Indian team qualifying through KRAFTON’s rankings. You can follow the full prize breakdown on Liquipedia or catch every match on the official stream from KRAFTON India Esports.
When the dust settles in Jaipur on June 21, one roster will lift the trophy and the ₹1 crore top prize. Watch the final-day standings closely, because in a points-based finals, the gap between ₹1 crore and ₹60 lakh can come down to a single clutch.
