India finished with a total of 19 medals with five gold, eight silver and six bronze medals at the Tokyo Paralympics. This was the best-ever showing for India at the Paralympic Games, bettering its previous best of four medals at the 2016 Rio Games. India had won a total of 12 medals before the start of the Tokyo Paralympics but the tally swelled to 31 thanks to brilliance of the para-athletes in the Japanese capital.
