How the IPL 2025 auction worked

Ahead of the IPL 2025 mega auction, the 10 IPL teams were allowed to retain a maximum of six players from their previous squads, with a maximum of five capped players and two uncapped Indians allowed. The total cost of the retained players is then subtracted from the total budget for the auction.

Teams which chose not to use their full quota of six had the option to use the balance retention spots as Right to Match (RTM) cards during the auction, with which they had the option to match the highest bid on any of their former players and retain them.

For example, a team retaining four players was entitled to two RTM cards in the auction. The cap on capped and uncapped players was still applied.

Punjab Kings, having retained just two uncapped players, had the biggest purse of ₹110.5 crore at the IPL 2025 auction and the option to use RTM cards on four capped players.

In contrast, inaugural IPL winners Rajasthan Royals and reigning champions Kolkata Knight Riders exercised their full quota of pre-auction retentions and had a budget of ₹41 crore and ₹51 crore, respectively, with no RTM cards left.
