History
India's representatives to the Miss Teen International beauty pageant were initially selected by the Miss Teen India Pageant, which was founded in 2016. The first winner of the Miss Teen India Pageant was Ritika Khatnani, who represented India at Miss Teen International in 2018. Khatnani finished as the first-runner up in the pageant. Aayushi Dholakia succeeded Khatnani as Miss Teen International India in 2019, and she went on to become the first Asian to win the Miss Teen International pageant.[12][13][14]
Since 2019, India's representative to Miss Teen Universe was also sent by Miss Teen Diva Organisation. Vridhi Jain was the first Miss Teen Universe India.[15]
In 2020, Glamanand Group announced Miss Teen Diva Pageant and merged Miss Teen India with Miss Teen Diva for the initial years to build Miss Teen Diva.
