The signing of the 21-year-old Pakistani origin striker was the first time a player under contract with an EPL club will move to an ISL side on loan.
Adil won the hearts of the Baggies supporters last season when he scored 12 goals and set up six others in only 22 games for the youth team. Amongst his goals was a hat-trick against Aston Villa and a double strike against English giants Arsenal FC.
Tony Pulis said, "It's a great opportunity for Adil and we will follow his progress closely. I'm a big supporter of a young man stepping out of his comfort zone and experiencing another part of the world. I think he will come out of it a better, more mature person and as a result a better footballer."
Commenting on his signing with Delhi Dynamos, Adil said, "I did not really have to think about it for too long. The idea appealed to me the moment it was proposed. I spoke to my parents and to people at the club and everyone thought it was an exciting idea.
For the Dynamos Manager Roberto Carlos, his signing was exactly what was needed in terms of fresh strength and balance for the team this season.
