History

2006–2010: I-League 2nd Division

In 2006 the Oil and Natural Gas Corporation founded a football club called ONGC F.C. in the hope of expanding their involvement in Indian football which included title sponsoring the old National Football League, Durand Cup and the Nehru Cup. In their inaugural season in the I-League 2nd Division the club finished in 6th place. After their first season the club went more professional in which they offered their players contracts and extended their salaries as well as inducting youth football in the team as well. These changes helped the club finish in 5th place in the Final Round of the 2009 I-League 2nd Division after topping their group in the Group Stage. The next season would finally see ONGC get promoted after the club won the 2010 I-League 2nd Division and went undefeated in the Final Round.
