The '''2015–16 Senior Women's T20 League''' was the 8th edition of the women's [[Women's Twenty20|Twenty20]] [[cricket]] [[Senior Women's T20 League|competition]] in [[India]]. It took place in January 2016 with 26 teams divided into an Elite Group and a Plate Group. [[Railways women's cricket team|Railways]] won the tournament, their seventh in a row, by topping the Elite Group Super League.<ref name="CA">{{cite web|url=https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Events/26/Inter_State_Womens_Twenty20_Competition_2015-16.html |title=Inter State Women's Twenty20 Competition 2015/16 |publisher=CricketArchive |access-date=19 August 2021}}</ref><ref name="BCCI">{{cite web|url=https://www.bcci.tv/events/12757/senior-womens-t20-league-2015-16 |title=Senior Women's T20 League 2015-16 |publisher=BCCI |access-date=19 August 2021}}</ref>

==Competition format==
The 26 teams competing in the tournament were divided into the Elite Group and the Plate Group, with the 10 teams in the Elite Group further divided into Groups A and B and the 16 teams in the Plate Group into Groups A, B and C. The tournament operated on a [[Round-robin tournament|round-robin]] format, with each team playing every other team in their group once. The top two sides from each Elite Group progressed to the Elite Group Super League, which was a further round-robin group, with the winner of the group being crowned Champions. The bottom side from each Elite Group was relegated to the Plate Group for the following season. Meanwhile, the top two from each Plate Group progressed to a knockout stage, with the two teams that reached the final being promoted for the following season, as well as playing off for the Plate Group title. Matches were played using a [[Women's Twenty20|Twenty20]] format.

The groups worked on a points system with positions with the groups based on the '''total points'''. Points were awarded as follows:<ref name="CAtable">{{cite web|url=https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Events/Tables/26/Inter_State_Womens_Twenty20_Competition_2015-16.html |title=Inter State Women's Twenty20 Competition 2015/16 Points Tables |publisher=CricketArchive |access-date=19 August 2021}}</ref>

'''Win''': 4 points. 
'''[[Result (cricket)#Tie|Tie]]''': 2 points. 
'''Loss''': 0 points. 
'''No Result/Abandoned''': 2 points.

If points in the final table were equal, teams were separated by most wins, then head-to-head record, then [[Net Run Rate]].
