Jasmit Phulka's first medal in the seniors' category was in 2013 Commonwealth Wrestling Championship which was held in Johannesburg. He represented Canada in the 84 kg weight class and won bronze.[6]
2018 was a pivotal year in his seniors' career as he won three medals. It was a gold, a silver and a bronze in the 2018 Sassari Cup, 2018 Grand Prix of Spain, and 2018 Mongolia Cup respectively.[7][8][9] They were all in the 74 kg weight class.[10]

In November 2020, Cyclone Regional Training Center announced that Phulka will be a part of them as he is training to represent Canada in the 2020 Olympics.[13][14]
