The present report communicates the first full genome sequencing of the Garlic virus X from northern India. The total genome size of Garlic virus X (MK503771) reported in this study is 8458 bp ssRNA. The full genome sequence analysis showed the close relationship of Garlic virus X from India to that of from China, Korea, Australia and Spain. The full genome sequence based study of Indian Garlic virus X reveals the geographical relationship of this virus in India and global origin which may assists in development of control strategy for this virus. •First de novo whole genome sequencing and assembly of Garlic Virus X infecting Allium sativum- G282 from India•Complete genome size of Garlic virus X reported in this study is 8458 bp ssRNA•The complete genome sequence of Garlic virus X was deposited in GenBank under accession no. MK503771.•GarV-X Meerut India [MK503771] shared 83.6–85.6% nucleotide identities with other isolates of Garlic Virus X.
