This is a list of Indian Super League playoffs that have occurred. The inaugural series was in 2014.

Standard cup rules – such as the away goals rule (two-leg ties only), extra time and penalty shootouts – are used to decide drawn games. The higher ranked team from the regular season hosts games if there is only one leg. Winners are in bold.

2014

After the home and away season, the inaugural playoff began on 13 December and culminated on 20 December, with the first ever ISL final.[1] The playoff was played in a single-elimination format of two-legged semifinals. Atlético de Kolkata became the inaugural champions after defeating the Kerala Blasters in the final, with Mohammed Rafique winning the Hero of the Match award.[2]
