"I've quarantined myself at home and am following all the necessary protocols as advised by my doctors," the statement further read.
"I want to thank all the healthcare professionals who are supporting me and many others across the country. Take care all of you," he concluded.
Tendulkar is one of the biggest names to have tested positive for the virus in recent times.
Notably, Tendulkar had recently taken part in the Road Safety World Series Challenge veteran's tournament in Raipur.
Tendulkar scored 15,921, the most runs in Test cricket history. His 18,426 in ODIs is also the most by anyone in the format. The 47-year-old is also the only one to have hit 100 centuries in international cricket.
He played international cricket between 1989 and 2013 and was also a part of the 2011 50-over World Cup-winning Indian team.
