Countries that have organised both Commonwealth and Asian Games :
India
India has hosted the Asian Games twice, in 1951 (the first Asian Games, New Delhi) and in 1982 (New Delhi). It also hosted the Commonwealth Games in 2010 in Delhi, so it has organised both events.
Malaysia hosted the Commonwealth Games (Kuala Lumpur 1998) but has never hosted the Asian Games. Indonesia hosted the Asian Games (Jakarta 1962, Jakarta–Palembang 2018) but is not a Commonwealth member. Japan hosted the Asian Games (Tokyo 1958, Hiroshima 1994) but is not in the Commonwealth either.
Only India has staged both multi-sport events.
Hence, the answer is India.
