At Paris 2024, Indian archers were in contention in all five archery medal events - men’s team and individual, women’s team and individual and mixed team.

The mixed team event was added to the Olympic programme starting this year.

Archery competitions at Paris 2024 began with the ranking rounds on July 25, a day before the official Opening Ceremony. In the ranking round, all archers shoot 72 arrows and the scores are recorded.

The seedings for the men’s and individual competitions are determined based on scores in the ranking round.

For the men’s and women’s team competitions, the top four seeded teams from the ranking round advanced directly to the quarter-finals. The teams seeded between eighth to 12th faced each other for the remaining four quarter-final spots.

The ranking round also determined qualification for the mixed team event with only the top 16 pairs making the cut.

For each nation fielding at least one men’s archer and one women’s archer, the top men's score and top women's score from the ranking rounds were combined to determine the team’s seeding.

For each of the five events, the losing semi-finalists faced each other for the bronze medal.

While Indian archers failed to win the elusive medal, they did however manage to record their best finish at the Summer Games. The pair of Dhiraj Bommadevara and Ankita Bhakat made the mixed team semi-finals, a first for Indian in archery at the Olympics. The duo lost the semis and the subsequent bronze medal match as well to finish fourth, India's best result at the Games.
