Career edit
Rohlupuia started his career with the youth academy of East Bengal FC and played for the East Bengal F.C. U-18 side. The Academy coach, Ranjan Chowdhury, scouted Rohlupuia from Mizoram and brought him to East Bengal, where he developed as a ball-playing central midfielder. He reached the semi-finals of the 2017-18 U-18 I-League, where he impressed throughout the campaign and scored 2 goals, but the team lost to Shillong Lajong FC in the semi-finals by 2-0.[1]

He joined the team as a central midfielder but spent most of the season on the reserve bench and played only in one game as he made his senior debut when he came on from the bench against Minerva Punjab F.C. away at Tau Devi Lal Stadium, Chandigarh, on 3 March 2019, which East Bengal FC won 1-0. Rohlupuia played just 8 minutes in the game.[2]

At the start of 2019-20 season, Rohlupuia signed a three-years contract extension with East Bengal, along with Manoj Mohammed and Prakash Sarkar, keeping him at the club until 2022.[3]
He was started in the very first game of the Centenary Season as a central midfielder beside Lalrindika Ralte, against Army Red in the 2019 Durand Cup which East Bengal won 2-0 with goals from Jaime Santos Colado and Bidyashagar Singh.[2][needs update]
