The BB Gazette of February 1894 records the formation of the 1st Darjeeling Company of The Boys’ Brigade, followed two months later with the announcement of the 1st Jalna Company however social and political barriers proved inimical to the movement’s progress in Calcutta and elsewhere before the First World War, several isolated attempts were made in the 1920s to sustain B.B. companies.
By the time of the Union in 1926, the Boys’ Life Brigade had formed Companies in Barisal, Calcutta and at the Dichpali Leprosy Mission.  During the 1930s the two companies of Dichpalli (the second was registered in March 1932) gained increasing support from Methodist companies in Great Britain, and became quite well know. Already with the War and then with Independence in 1947, the Brigade in Dichpalli had slowly begun to dwindle and, by the early 1940s, the only other B.B. company in India- in Bombay (formed in 1937) – had disappeared. By the end of the 1950s the Brigade movement was no more in the Indian subcontinent.
The formation of the World Conference and the subsequent expansion to included organisations with similar principles and aims as The Boys’ Brigade brought the Junior Ministry into the World Conference fellowship, this remained the BB link with the Indian subcontinent into the 21st century.
The Boys’ Brigade was brought back to India through the efforts of BB Asia, who in 2015, started outreach work in India, starting the 1st Telangana and 1st Andhra Pradesh Companies catering for both Boys and Girls.
