The tournament was established in 1945 by [[Bharat Ram]] and Charat Ram of the [[Delhi Cloth & General Mills]] textile conglomerate.<ref name="dcm">{{Cite web|first=Majumdar|last=Raunak|title=The DCM Trophy – Oldest Indian Tournament with International Exposure|url=https://www.chaseyoursport.com/Indian-Football/DCM-Trophy-in-India/819|date=31 May 2019|access-date=4 December 2021|website=chaseyoursport.com|publisher=Chase Your Sport|language=en|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201107233704/https://www.chaseyoursport.com/Indian-Football/DCM-Trophy-in-India/819|archive-date=7 November 2020}}</ref>

Delhi's local teams won the first two editions; since then, clubs from [[Calcutta]] have dominated the 1950s and early 1960s, and foreign clubs since the late 1960s. The tournament has not been organised since 1997 due to fixture congestion and various restructuring policies in Indian club football. [[Mohun Bagan]] was the last winner of the tournament.<ref name="dcm"/><ref>{{Cite web|title=India – D.C.M.

The Delhi Cloth Mills Trophy, known simply as D.C.M. Trophy, was an invitational football tournament in India. It was held annually in New Delhi and was organised by the Delhi Cloth Mills tournament committee.[2] It was India's first football tournament to provide the national clubs with international exposure due to participation of international clubs from Asia and Europe.

History

[edit]

The tournament was established in 1945 by Bharat Ram and Charat Ram of the Delhi Cloth & General Mills textile conglomerate.[3]

Delhi's local teams won the first two editions; since then, clubs from Calcutta have dominated the 1950s and early 1960s, and foreign clubs since the late 1960s. The tournament has not been organised since 1997 due to fixture congestion and various restructuring policies in Indian club football. Mohun Bagan was the last winner of the tournament.[3][4]
