We observed SN 2016bkv, discovered by K. Itagaki (https://wis-tns.weizmann.ac.il//object/2016bkv) on 2016 March 21.70 UT, with the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT) on 2016 April 03.53 UT in 1390 MHz band. We do not detect any radio emission at the supernova position RA, Decl (J2000): 10:18:19.31, +41:25:39.30. The GMRT map rms at the supernova region is around 27 uJy.
We thank the GMRT staff for scheduling these observations.
