The 2021–22 Santosh Trophy was the 75th edition of the Santosh Trophy, the premier competition in India for teams representing their regional and state football associations.[1] The last season was cancelled due to COVID-19 pandemic in India.

The main round of the tournament was held in Manjeri, and was contested by 10 teams divided into two groups.[2][3] Kerala and West Bengal from Group A and Manipur and Karnataka from Group B reached the semi-finals, and eventually Kerala and West Bengal faced in the final. Kerala won their seventh title after defeating West Bengal in the penalties.
