Correct answer: C

The Sports Ministry's send-off release describes a 503-member contingent that includes athletes and support staff.
More than 300 of them are first-timers at the Games.
In March 2026 the Ministry expected more than 700 athletes. That was a projection, and 503 is the contingent that actually went. 107 is a medal count, not a squad: the tally India won at Hangzhou in 2022.

Worth noting

Old projections outlive the events they projected. When two releases disagree, take the later one.
