The Indian Premier League (IPL) auction is approaching within a month, preceding the 2024 season, prompting teams to initiate their rebuilding process well in advance of the auction date. The IPL Trade Window facilitates this process, allowing franchises to exchange players among themselves or conduct cash deals for player acquisitions.

2. Final approval for trades rests with the IPL governing council.
3. In cases of multiple franchise interests for a player, the selling franchise has the authority to select the destination team.
4. Player consent is mandatory before any trading or transfer activity.
5. 'Icon' players are not eligible for trade.
