Rachel Gupta (born 23 January 2004) is an Indian model and beauty pageant winner who made history as the first Indian to be crowned Miss Grand International in 2024. Her reign ended prematurely in May 2025 due to internal conflicts with the organization. Before this, she held the titles of Miss Grand India 2024 and Miss Super Talent of the World 2022.
At the age of 18, Gupta participated in the fifteenth season of Miss Super Talent, held on 28 September 2022, in Paris, France in collaboration with Paris Fashion Week.

She ended up as the winner of the competition.
In May 2024, Gupta was announced as a finalist in the Miss Grand India 2024 competition, organized by the Glamanand Group. At the grand finale on 11 August 2024, held at Zee Studios in Jaipur, Rajasthan, she was crowned Miss Grand India 2024 by outgoing titleholder Arshina Sumbul. Throughout the competition, she also earned several sub-titles, including Miss Top Model, Best in Ramp Walk, Beauty with a Purpose, and Best National Costume.
