Mar 10: Carysil had much to celebrate at the Carysil Jaipur Open 2026. Held at the iconic Rajasthan Polo Club, Jaipur, the tournament; dedicated to Brigadier HH Maharaja Sawai Bhawani Singh MVC, proved to be one of the most memorable editions yet. With the Carysil Suhana team lifting the championship title, the occasion brought together sporting triumph, distinguished company, and the timeless grandeur of Jaipur in a manner that will be long remembered.
The Carysil Suhana team delivered a performance that had every reason to be celebrated. Advancing through the semi-finals with a confident score of 9 in 6 chukkers, the team carried that momentum all the way to a thrilling final against Vimal Arion and emerged victorious with a winning score of 12 in 6 chukkers, claiming the Jaipur Open 2026 championship in style.
The team that made it all possible: Manuel Prado, Bhawani Singh Kalvi, Ashok Chandna, Matias Vial Perez, and Kuldeep Singh Rathore; each an integral part of the squad. In a fitting tribute to an outstanding tournament, Manuel Prado was honoured with the Most Valuable Player award, a testament to the brilliance he brought to every chukker. All players were felicitated in a proud and joyful ceremony held in the presence of Chirag Parekh, Chairman and Managing Director, Carysil, and Padmanabh Singh (fondly known as Pacho), an Indian polo player and head of the erstwhile Jaipur royal family, making the moment all the more special for the team and the Carysil family alike.
Over the years, the Carysil Jaipur Open has evolved into a defining fixture on the country’s design and lifestyle calendar, and this year’s edition raised the bar even further. A wider and more distinguished guest list, fierce on-field competition, and an evening programme that moved from the polo grounds to the magnificence of City Palace came together to make the 2026 edition truly exceptional.
The tournament brought together influential voices from the architecture and interior design fraternity, alongside channel partners, dealers, distributors, and members of the media. Elle Decor chronicled the celebrations across its print, digital, and social platforms, a reflection of the cultural resonance and industry credibility the Carysil Jaipur Open has come to command.
The occasion was graciously hosted by Carysil’s leadership team: Rhea Parekh Jain, Vice President, International Marketing; Pavan Palkar, Chief Strategy Officer; and Shveta Sharma, Vice President, Sternhagen and Carysil B2B, whose passion and vision brought the event to life in the most memorable fashion.
The Polo Cup was born from a natural and deeply felt alignment of values. Polo’s legacy of heritage, precision, and disciplined excellence mirrors Carysil’s own foundations as a German-engineered brand rooted in craftsmanship and considered design. The sport’s association with royalty, cultivated audiences, and international stature made it an instinctive home for a brand that engages closely with India’s most discerning architects, interior designers, and homeowners, and the 2026 edition was a vivid reminder of just how beautifully that association has flourished.
“For Carysil, luxury has never been about excess; it is about intention,” said Rhea Parekh Jain, Vice President International Marketing. “Our association with the Jaipur Open reflects a shared respect for craft, discipline, and legacy. From the polo field to the City Palace, the experience is designed to honour spaces where heritage and contemporary living coexist, and where design is felt as much as it is seen.”
The celebrations did not end on the polo field. As the sun set over Jaipur, the evening moved to the breathtaking City Palace, an 18th-century royal residence and one of the subcontinent’s finest expressions of Rajput architecture and living heritage. Hi – tea at the polo grounds gave way to a formal dinner within the palace walls, before the night culminated in a spirited after-party at the historic Baradari. It was an evening as carefully considered as it was joyful; a fitting close to a day that embodied everything Carysil believes a premium experience should be: intentional, immersive, and utterly unforgettable.
