* A club can now sign maximum of '''six''' and minimum of '''four''' foreigners including at least one player who hails from an [[Asian Football Confederation|AFC]] affiliated nation.
* Four foreigners can play on the field at any instant of a match.
* A decrease in foreign player numbers from 5 to 4 mandates the clubs to have a minimum of seven 7 Indian players on the field at any time.
* A club also has the option to sign a foreign marquee player within the League-approved classifications.
* Clubs to increase their development player signing from a minimum of 2 to 4 while continuing to have 2 of such development players be part of the match-day squad.
* A club can have a maximum squad strength of 35 players, with at least three registered goalkeepers. A club can also have an injury replacement for an Indian player (outside the max. 35 registered players).
